How to Find a Contractor in Baltimore
When you finally decide to take the plunge on doing any type of renovation in your home, you need to make sure you pick an exceptional design and contractor team that you can trust. Trademark Construction can assure you that we are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and will do the job correctly. Knowing the things to look for in a contractor is essential to ensure your home renovations turn out exactly how you pictured.
Research
When you are picking a contractor to renovate your Baltimore home, you want to make sure they are reputable and have been in business for a substantial amount of time. Go onto their website and look for their testimonials, see what other people have to say about their work. You also should make sure they are licensed and registered in Maryland, which lucky for you, we absolutely are! One final step is to check the BBB (Better Business Bureau) to make sure they are valid and a thriving business. Once you have done all these steps it is time to start getting bids.
Bids
Bidding is the process where you are starting to get quotes for whatever renovation work you want done to your Baltimore home. Start talking to people that you know that have had contracting work recently, to see how their prices compared to what you are getting offered. You want to get at least 3 bids to compare, so you make an informed decision. Once you get bids, consider getting rid of the company that gave you the unlikely price point; your first instinct will be to think “Wow, this is great!” but there is something fishy about a low ball price. You want value , but you don’t want to sacrifice the quality of the job because of it. Trademark Construction offers great prices and helps you pick the best materials for the job as well, so you get the best of both worlds; quality and affordability.
Decide If It’s the Right Fit
When you hire a contractor, depending on the renovation you have decided for your home, you will be spending a lot of time together. It is important that you feel comfortable, have a good business relationship, and an open communication line. You have to feel confident to tell a contractor something you may not like about the job or that you want to change direction somewhere. Communication is key within the whole renovation process. At Trademark Construction, we pride ourselves on our exceptional people and communication skills. With our personable attitude, we can help you every step of way. We will make sure you never feel frustrated or upset with us as your renovation team.
Contract
Never start anything until a contract has been created and signed by you and the contracted professionals. You want to have this project in writing because, as like anything else involving your finances, it is an investment. The contract should be extremely detailed and not be missing any information. Make sure you read it thoroughly, and there is a understandable breakdown of the renovation in the contract. You never have to worry about our contracts, we are very detailed orientated.
Come to Trademark Construction for any home renovations. We can assure you that we are always going to do a job well done, and make sure you are a satisfied customer and homeowner of your new renovation in Baltimore.
