Atlanta Construction Monthly 2018

Just like homeowners only spend on renovation once every few years, commercial
projects too must be remodeled to suit the current needs and requirements. The
first step is planning the project. This is the point where you decide the requirements,
consider the budget, and select the tasks or aspects that need immediate
attention and the ones that can be ignored for now. The remodeling project may
include a new segment of the property too. To do all of that within a fixed budget,
you need to find a commercial contractor.
1. Make your notes
What kind of remodeling project do you have in mind? If you know your requirements,
discussing things further with your renovation contractor will be easier than ever. The list
should be made in sync with your priorities. For example, remodeling the conference room
of your business premises might be more urgent than redesigning the roof lounge. You
need to prioritize your expectations, which will also come handy for budgeting.
2. Finding a contractor
Today, commercial contractors have their own websites, so finding a few options in your
city shouldn’t be a challenging task. However, you should check for references with your
industry friends and colleagues. Contractors and architectural services that deal with new
projects may also take up remodeling tasks, so don’t shy away from contacting the top
services.
3. Know more
Don’t hire a contractor unless you are sure of what they can achieve for your project. To
get a good idea if they are the right choice, you need to check their previous projects.
A commercial contractor who has been around for more than a decade will have the
necessary experience, and in the ideal case, they wouldn’t shy away from discussing their
portfolio. Check the range of commercial projects they have done in recent years and if
they specialize in managing contracts on a lower budget.
4. Set a budget
As a client, you probably know what you can afford to spend on the remodeling project.
Quite evidently, the prime task is to find a contractor who can achieve more than what’s
on the table. On your first meeting, ask them to offer a clear picture of their charges, how
they plan to manage the project and the things they can realistically achieve for your needs,
keeping the budget in mind. Many contractors and commercial remodeling services may
customize their work to suit your needs, and that’s surely an added benefit.
5. Finally, check the expertise of the
concerned contractor
A company that deals in new projects and take up remodeling work should be your first
preference. Check if they are willing to share client references and whether they have
succeeded in managing a diverse portfolio in their years of operation.
