As a work site contractor, your goal is to get the project completed on time and within a set budget. Of course, you also want to make sure that your work is quality and that you’re not cutting corners. This can be dangerous in the business of a contractor. So, how do you balance these two aspects? What are some ways that you can save your client time and money without sacrificing quality? Let’s take a look at some best practices while working as a job-site contractor.

Materials & Tools

Your building materials are the very foundation of your project. Everything that you do will be centered around or built using the materials that you select. Don’t make the mistake of choosing the first supplier that you come across. Do a bit of research to compare different options from different suppliers. Ideally, you’ll want quality material that is priced competitively.

Tools should be given the same consideration. It may be worth it in the long run to splurge on quality tools that won’t bend or break. If you were to insist on using tools that were significantly cheaper but lacking in quality, then you may ultimately end up spending more to replace the originals.

Management & Scheduling

As a contractor, you’re primarily responsible for managing your work site. This includes working with people and organizing a schedule that is both efficient and flexible. If at any point your work site is sitting empty and untended without obvious reason, then your client is losing money. Inclement weather is one thing, but a mismanaged schedule can cost time, money, and resources.

Subcontractors

The subcontractors that work under the direction of a contractor are vital to the success of any building project. From concrete and framing to plumbing and electrical, construction projects are extremely intricate and require many people with varying skills. Be sure to hire workers who are skilled and reliable. As the contractor, you’ll be responsible for any damage or absences that occur on your watch.

Equipment Care & Maintenance

This may seem obvious, but it’s important to remember to care for your machinery. Whether bought or rented, dirt and rust can pose a significant threat to the integrity of your equipment. Be sure to clean them throughly and store them properly when not in use.
