What is a General Contractor

South Florida General Contractors Provide Residential and Commercial Construction

A general contractor oversees every aspect of a construction job, whether it's an office building in a central business district or a private residence in the suburbs. If not for the general contractor to bring it all together and make sure everything runs smoothly and on budget, even the best laid construction plans could fall apart.

Services provided by the general contractor include:

• the estimate or bid
• securing materials
• hiring subcontractors
• leasing vehicles (trucks, cranes, backhoes, etc.)
• maintaining all accounting and personnel records

 In addition to possessing expertise on every segment of the construction project, the general contractor expands his involvement into the work of his subcontractors and will have full knowledge of all contracted services such as plumbing, electric, cabinetry, flooring, roofing, foundations, landscaping, and framing, in addition to the code requirements for each facet of the job. Altogether, the general construction contractor accepts total liability for the project.

No matter the scale of the project, the general contractor retains his involvement, if only sometimes on the managerial level. For a home improvement project, he often will become involved in the day-to-day operations. For homeowners thinking of launching a home remodeling project, hiring an experienced general contractor is strongly suggested. Let the experts at GC Building Group do the work for you, handle the details, the building permits, the subcontractors, the inspections  and all the nuances of the plan, so that you end up with a renovation or new construction project that has been efficiently run, on time and on-budget.
