Be it remodelling, rehabilitation or new construction, you will be hiring several subcontractors to undertake the different aspects of the construction process. To ensure that the project is successfully completed to meet your goals, it is imperative to create an enabling working environment for the subcontractors.

For the most part, a contractor is technically skilled in an aspect of a construction and for that when you hire one for an aspect, they will be focusing on it. In order words, you wouldn’t expect a contractor to be used for plumbing jobs to undertake other aspects or render some help viz-a-viz a task other than their primary task which is plumbing. That being the case, it makes sense to use a general contractor, an individual who manages and coordinates construction tasks such as flooring, plumbing, electrical work, roofing, waterproofing, etc from start to finish of a project to ensure that the best construction outcome is attained.
A general contractor works hand in gloves with the subcontractors to ensure that every bit of a construction process is effectively completed. Subcontractors are fond of dancing to the tune of a general contractor for the fact that the latter can get more jobs from the former if they maintain a good working rapport. That makes the job of properly managing a construction in its totality more effective for a general contractor.
