If the concrete at your business is starting to show signs of wear and tear, it's time to hire a commercial concrete repair contractor.
There are over 5,000 concrete repair companies in the country, so choosing the right one for your needs can be tricky. Concrete problems can range from foundation issues to cracks in your parking lot, so you don't want to hire the wrong contractor to fix the wrong thing.
In today's post, we'll give you a hand with hiring a contractor. Keep reading and we'll tell you some of the key factors you need to consider when hiring concrete contractors for commercial buildings.
Ratings and Reviews
Start your search by typing "commercial concrete repair contractor near me" into Google and looking for the top-rated companies in your area. Look at the top 3-5 and take the time to read reviews from former customers.Â
No one is going to give you a better idea of how good a concrete contractor is than another business that has hired them. If there are any major issues or red flags you're concerned about, you can bet that reviews will unearth them.
Portfolio
Once you've chosen a few of the top-rated and reviewed contractors, the next step is to do a bit of research. A company's portfolio of past work can quickly determine whether or not they've got what it takes to do your concrete repair.
Experience and Expertise
Another important thing to look for is the level of experience each contractor has. Specifically, you want to see that a company has done jobs similar to what you need to be done. Check that they've got the right certifications to do their work as well.
Generally speaking, the longer a contractor has been at it, the more likely they'll be able to do your concrete repair correctly and in a timely manner. At Champion Concrete Cutting, we've been helping Edmonton businesses with all of their concrete needs for over 30 years, so you can trust us with any project.
InsuranceÂ
Whenever you're dealing with a big concrete repair job, you need to make sure your contractor carries all of the necessary insurance. Big jobs can always result in injuries and/or property damage.
You never want to be liable for any mishaps that aren't your fault. So long as your contractor carries general liability insurance, you'll be safe. It never hurts to verify their insurance with the insurance provider to make sure everything's up to date.
Pricing
Lastly, you should always obtain quotes from a few different contractors before hiring one. Whether you're demolishing concrete structures or having minor repairs done, staying under budget will be important.
A good contractor will be able to use their experience to give an accurate quote for your job. Choose the contractor that satisfies everything we've discussed here while working within your budget.
