When it comes time to choose a contractor for your home renovation project, you will be faced with a choice between a general contractor and a design and build contractor. Both have their pros and cons, but which is the better option for you?
Let’s find out!
A General Contractor is a professional who is responsible for the overall coordination and management of a construction project. This includes ensuring that all the necessary subcontractors are hired and that the project is completed on time and within budget.
A general contractor typically oversees a wide range of construction activities, from the initial planning stages through to the finished product. There are many benefits of working with a general contractor, including saving time and money, having a professional manage the project, and getting expert advice.
A Design And Build Contractor is a professional who is responsible for the design and construction of a project. They work with the client to come up with a design that meets their needs and then oversee the construction of the project. Design and build contractors are typically licensed and insured, and they have a lot of experience in the construction industry.
Ultimately, it’s up to you to decide what’s right for you. If you want a lot of control over the design and execution of your renovation project, then a design and build contractor is likely the better option. If you are looking for more hands-off experience, a General Contractor may be a better choice.
