Question 1

I’m a GC, how should I be reviewing and evaluating Concrete Contractors?

Accepted Answer

General Contractors should typically be checking a Concrete Contractor's past job performance and what other GCs have said about them. As a GC on a residential or commercial project, it’s important to know and trust the people on the project whether you hired them directly or not. GCs should be checking reviews and pictures of a Concrete Contractor's past work but also their past payment efforts. Did this Concrete Contractor hire a supplier or a sub-subcontractor on a past job or will they on this job? If they do, it’s critical for you as the GC to know how that Concrete Contractor's has paid their vendors in the past. Not checking a Concrete Contractor's payment to a sub-sub or supplier could result in a filed mechanics lien on the project that can delay project completion or hurt a GCs relationship with the property owner. You can check a Concrete Contractor's past job performance on the Levelset subcontractor profiles including reviews from other GCs.

Question 2

I’m a supplier, what should I care about in the Concrete Contractors I work with?

Accepted Answer

As a supplier, analyzing a Concrete Contractor's risk are critical to keeping low outstanding accounts receivables. Suppliers should be looking at industry reports, credit reports, talking to other suppliers who have worked with the Concrete Contractors, reading reviews, and checking past payment performance. Doing thorough research and risk analysis could mean getting paid when you expect it or waiting months for the money you’re owed.

Question 3

How can I check for references for a Concrete Contractor?

You can ask the company directly to ask for past customer references; any reputable company with a good track record can easily share some people you can reach out to. You can also google reviews about the company’s past quality of work. You can also use Levelset’s Payment Profiles to see a company’s past job and payment performance including what their payment process was, how communicative they were, and how to best work with them.

Question 4

What should I be looking for in my Concrete Contractor?

Accepted Answer

First, customers and vendors should be checking for a Concrete Contractor's quality of work. Look on the company’s website or on review sites for examples of their past work. Second, you should be asking about their payment process. If a payment problem comes up, do they communicate and answer the phone? Do they send preliminary notices to make sure everyone is aware they’re on the job and transparent about their work? Do they make the payment process easy by communicating upfront what you need to do? The best Concrete Contractors not only do great work but are also great project partners by making the payment process smooth and easy for everyone.

Question 7

Wherever you check for permits, be sure to check where the permit information is coming from and how the company is aggregating some of this information. The best third-party websites make finding permits easy and have a relationship with the county recorder offices, getting this information directly from the counties.
