Choosing the Best Contractor for Your Project

Choosing a reliable contractor begins with verification, not impressions. Initiate contractor screening by checking an active New Jersey license, experience with Dunellen permits, and up-to-date general liability and workers' comp insurance. Request recent local references and images of properly permitted work. Examine project portfolios that correspond to your needs, trades, and technical demands.

Evaluate scheduling, supervision, and subcontractor management. Require a detailed written scope, CSI-style line items, and a practical timeline with clear milestones. In contract preparation, specify materials, allowances, specifications, permitting responsibilities, inspections, and closeout documentation. Link payments to completed and verified milestones-never provide large deposits. Define modification procedures, unit pricing, and dispute settlement procedures. Review safety procedures, site safeguards, and warranty conditions. Pick the contractor who exhibits comprehensive documentation, prompt communication, and a proven track record of approved inspections.
