General Contractor Questions and Answers

What does a general contractor do?

A general contractor oversees a construction project, hiring and scheduling subcontractors, ordering materials, managing the budget and timeline, and coordinating inspections. They are your main point of contact and are responsible for the work being completed as agreed.

When do I need a general contractor?

A general contractor is helpful when a project involves more than one trade, changes to walls or structure, or permits and inspections. For a single-trade job, such as replacing a water heater, hiring that trade directly is often simpler.

How do I choose a general contractor?

Ask for references from similar projects, a detailed written bid and a clear contract with scope, payment schedule and change-order process. Check whether your state or city requires a contractor license, confirm insurance, and ask who will supervise the site day to day.

What affects the cost of a general contractor's project?

Cost depends on the project's size and complexity, materials and finishes, the trades involved, structural or code-related work, permits, site conditions and the contractor's fee or markup. Changes after work begins usually add cost.

How should I prepare to work with a general contractor?

Define your goals, budget and must-haves, and gather any plans or inspiration photos. Ask how communication will work, where materials and dumpsters will go, and which areas of the home will be off limits during construction.
