Understanding the General Contracting Market

What clients expect and what drives business growth in this category

General contractors manage all phases of construction and renovation projects, coordinating licensed subcontractors (plumbers, electricians, framers), pulling permits, scheduling inspections, and maintaining the project schedule and budget. They serve as the single point of accountability under a prime contract with the homeowner. GCs typically mark up subcontractor bids 10–20% for their management fee.

Clients need a single accountable professional who can execute complex multi-trade projects on time and within budget while navigating permit and inspection requirements.

Licensing & credentials: General contractor license required in all states; bond and liability insurance are mandatory; most states require proof of workers' compensation for employees.

General Contracting — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from clients booking General Contracting services

What's included in a GC's contract?

A solid contract covers scope of work, materials specifications, payment schedule (typically tied to milestones), change order procedures, warranty terms, and lien waiver requirements.

How does a GC markup work?

GCs add 10–20% to subcontractor and material costs to cover overhead and profit; some charge a flat management fee on cost-plus contracts instead.

Should I get multiple bids for a general contractor?

Yes — 3 bids is standard. Compare scope, not just price; the lowest bid may exclude items others include, creating expensive change orders later.

Who is responsible if a subcontractor damages my property?

The GC is responsible under the prime contract; their liability insurance and the sub's insurance both provide coverage layers.

Can I supply my own materials to save money?

Yes, but the GC typically won't warranty owner-supplied materials. Coordinate deliveries carefully — job site storage and theft risk transfer to you.
