Brandon B. says, "I inquired at a local home show for a kitchen remodel and like what I heard so I set an appointment. Ray came out with his "Mobile Showroom " and talked about his company and services. The cabinets I liked were in stock and so was the beautiful quartz counter tops. He measures my kitchen and priced it out on the spot. The price was great so I signed up. The job was started about 3 weeks later and was finished in a total of about 4 weeks. My new kitchen is perfect and I'd recommend Ray and Remodel Express to everyone ." Read more

Austin S. says, "“Building a home and choosing the right builder is never easy, even under the best circumstances. My wife and I entered the building process right after she was diagnosed with Stage 4 Cancer. The stress in our lives could not have been higher. However, after talking with Lane, we decided we wanted to move forward and build our dream home. Now that our home is complete, we are able to look back and give anyone our honest opinion of Lane Myers and his team. Lane’s team, including his foreman Tyler, were wise to always set expectations for us, especially about timelines, and the cost of building. They were respectful of our budget, and were always upfront with us when we choose to go over budget to add additional items… There were never surprises that we didn’t know about. When unforeseen challenges arose, they were quick to find the proper solution, and our house turned out better than we could have imagined! When building, you enter a relationship with a team of people that will include almost daily interaction. Depending on the build time, you could be involved for 6-18 months… So you better hope you like them. We heard horror stories from friends about different builders, and by the time their home was complete they hated their builder. We not only enjoyed the Lane Myers team, but his subcontractors were kind and respectful… Which isn’t always the case in the building world. We are able to say that our relationship with Lane, Tyler, and his office manager Brooke ended better than when we started. I told Lane that since we have finished our home, we have been missing our daily interaction. They didn’t treat us like clients, they treated us like family- and we highly recommend Lane Myers Construction to anyone!” " Read more

Your General Contracting questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much do local general contractors charge?

General contractors charge 10% to 20% of the total construction cost, known as "cost-plus." Some building contractors charge a flat fee based on the project but rarely charge an hourly rate. Home improvement contractors pay on your behalf for all materials, subcontractors, services, and permits.

What does a residential general contractor do?

Licensed general contractors manage and coordinate the entire building process. A general contractor estimates the job, provides the materials and tools, and hires specialized subcontractors for the construction work. Remodeling contractors can perform electrical work, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, or build a house

Why use a general building contractor?

A general contractor saves you time, resolves any problems, and ensures the construction follows code requirements. General contractors have a network of experienced, licensed, and insured subcontractors to properly build any project. Home contractors also source all the materials, tools, and permits and pay for them on your behalf.

Common projects to hire a licensed general contractor are home, bathroom, kitchen, and basement remodeling.

How do I find a good general contractor?

Start by searching our list of construction companies near you. After finding contractors in your area:

  • Get at least three estimates from building contractors to compare.
  • Ask for references and to see a portfolio of their past work.
  • Verify their insurance, worker’s compensation, and bond guarantees.
  • Call references, read their reviews, and check out their previous work on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Ask about their warranties and guarantees.
  • Ask for a full itemized contract in writing in case of a dispute.
  • Avoid making large payments upfront. Come up with a payment schedule for work completed.

What questions to ask a general contractor before hiring?

Ask these questions upfront before hiring:

  • How long have you been a general contractor?
  • How many similar projects have you built?
  • Can you provide me with a list of references?
  • Can I see your portfolio?
  • Are you licensed, insured, and bonded?
  • Have there been any lawsuits against your company?
  • How do you handle damages that happen on the job?
  • Who's the project manager?
  • What qualities do you look for in subcontractors?
  • What hours do you and your crew work?
  • How long will the project take?
  • What permits do I need, and will you obtain them?
  • What does your warranty policy include?
  • Can you provide me a written estimate or contract with a breakdown of all costs?
  • What is the structure of the payment agreements?
  • Do you offer in-house financing?
  • What do I need to provide to get started?

Do general contractors need insurance?

A general contractor assumes responsibility for the project and should be licensed and insured. Ask for a potential contractor's license number and proof of insurance before hiring. Ask your local building department for licensing requirements, then verify the licensing on the state's licensing board website.

D W.
I was looking to remodel my kitchen and I was thumbing through the Home Values magazine and I saw this add for Remodel Express. So, I took a chance and called. I spoke with a very pleasant and soft spoken gentleman named Ray. I told him what I was needing and he said he would be here the next day. He came and we talked about what I thought I was needing to make the kitchen functional. He pulled out his tape measure and showed me some samples of what the cabinets would be like. and I was impressed with quality of the materials being used. I was really dreading remodeling the kitchen, however, Remodel Express and Ray made it most enjoyable. All the people that came to the house are tradesmen in remodeling. My remodel was completed on time and I am thrilled with my new kitchen. Everything has a place. Thank you Ray and Remodel Express for making my worst room in the house, the best room in the house.

“Lane Myers Constructions built our home and have been nothing less than fabulous. I got exactly what I wanted and their team is the best. They let me build the custom home that I wanted, but they steered me in the best direction when something was questionable. There is not a day that goes by that I wish I would have done something different. They have been awesome about coming back for warranty work. There is a reason that they have the reputation of being the best, they really are the best builder!”
