In broad terms, a general contractor is responsible for overseeing all the day-to-day coordination of a construction project, managing the on-site work and teams throughout each phase of building. They coordinate with architects and engineers to understand the structural requirements of the project, manage subcontractors, building codes, select and secure materials and equipment, and are primarily responsible for ensuring the overall safety of their job site.
In most construction models, the general contractor serves as the lead coordinating the project, hiring specialists, and acting as the main point of contact for the client. The specialists they bring on, such as electricians, painters, and HVAC professionals, are known as subcontractors.
Even relatively straightforward builds can require dozens of subcontractors. Managing this network efficiently is critical. Poor coordination can result in delays, added costs, and unnecessary markups. But with our streamlined structure and dedicated team, we eliminate many of these common issues. Our employees work as one cohesive unit, focused on the same goal not on competing for margins.
