If you aren’t savvy with carpentry tools and building equipment, it makes perfect sense to hire a professional rather than taking on a construction job yourself. However, hiring the wrong general contractor could lead to substandard work, delays, and even legal problems. This is why people of the Mountain Home, AR, area choose the experienced builders at Americom Construction Co. to take care of their residential or commercial construction needs. They have been in the construction industry for nearly 20 years with efficient, cost-effective home and commercial builder services.

What questions should you ask when looking for a general contractor for your construction project?

• Are They Licensed & Insured? Having a license and other credentials demonstrates knowledge and credibility. A contractor who has a license shows they have taken an exam and has proven his knowledge of building codes and processes. Having insurance also protects you, the customer, from being liable for any accidents that happen during construction.
• Do They Specialize In Your Project? Nowadays, many building projects are code-specific and regulated, so you want to work with a general contractor who is familiar with the details and requirements of your particular project. Research builders and contractors in the area to determine if they have sufficient experience in the type of project you have in mind.
• Who Is Performing The Job? It is your right to know, as a potential client, who will be showing up on your doorstep to perform the construction job. A general contractor may do the work and subcontract specialty tasks, like roofing and vinyl siding to other home builders. A reliable and trustworthy contractor will only work with equally efficient subcontractors.
