These 6 Tips Will Help You Find The Perfect Commercial Contractor In Toronto

Finding the right commercial contractor to undertake your renovation, remodeling, or building project is a daunting task. With so many companies to chose from, making a decision can be hard. The six tips given below will guide you in making a better informed decision.



 1: Conduct your research
When hiring a commercial contractor for your office renovation in GTA, speak directly with the contractor and ask some of the following questions:
·         How long have you been in business?
·         Can I have three references?
·         Can you share details on three past projects?
In addition to asking them directly, ask friends and other business owners in the areas which commercial contractors they have used in the past and how their experience was. Make sure you are talking to the right kind of contractor.  For example, a commercial contractor in Mississauga who focuses on store and office renovations understands the unique needs of your business as opposed to a general contractor focusing on home renovations.

2: Check that they are certified and insured
It is critical that you make sure the contractor you hire carries public liability and property damage insurance and that they are licensed in your area. Be sure that the contractor has the necessary permits and licenses required to perform your project. A little verification early on in the process may save you from having to deal with major issues later on.

3: Be clear about what you want
Provide a clear explanation of what you want from your contractor. What is your timeframe? Do you have a clear vision in mind or do you want the contractor to suggest options? Can you provide written drawings or specifications?
The more specific you are, the greater your chances are of getting an accurate quote from the contractor.

4: Get a written estimate
Get written estimates from at least three contractors that cover everything that you would like done. Estimates should include materials, labor, permits, cleanup and everything else involved with your project.
Once you have estimates, don’t automatically choose the lowest bidder. Ask for an explanation to see if there is a reason for the difference in price. Sometimes better quality is worth paying that little extra.

5: Sign a formal contract
Any project should begin with a formal contract signed. The agreement should cover project scope, time, materials, costs, arbitration process, and many other factors. A complete contract means everyone involved knows exactly what is expected and they can work towards a shared goal.


6: Communication is key
Strong communication between client and contractor is key to a smooth project. If you are ever unsure about the working process,  always ask. Do not make assumptions, as a simple chat could remove any doubts. Always get issues clarified early on and ask your contractor to do the same.
