How to Hire a Concrete Contractor
Check References and Paving Experience
Need advice on how to hire a concrete contractor? Read these useful tips from American Asphalt:
- References: Advertisements and direct marketing can give you a choice of contractors, but ask for references to determine workmanship and customer service quality.
- Experience: Licensing and insurance are critical, but work experience makes a huge difference too. Talk to the concrete contractors about the road, driveway or sidewalk installation projects they have completed.
- Equipment: Type of equipment used will impact project completion time, concrete surface finish and durability. A contractor who uses the latest paving techniques and has the right equipment for the job is a good choice.
- Environment: There are certain environmental guidelines for debris disposal. Ask your contractor about the process they follow.
- Contract: Ensure that project scope and price is detailed in the contract to avoid hidden charges.
- Price: Don’t base your decision solely on price. Experience and work quality are very important.
