Buy Cheap, Buy Twice
3 Things to Avoid When Picking a Contractor
With construction costs on the rise across the country, it's tempting to look for ways to save money. However, when it comes to selecting a contractor, the old adage "buy cheap, buy twice" often holds true. Cutting corners to save a few dollars upfront can lead to higher costs, poor quality, and endless frustration down the line. At Brandise Construction, we understand the importance of quality and reliability, which is why we work with only the best subcontractors. If we trust our subcontractors, rest assured that you can too. Here are three things to avoid when picking a contractor to ensure you get the best value for your investment.
1. Avoid Lowball Bids
When comparing bids from different contractors, it’s important to be wary of those that come in significantly lower than others. While it might seem like a great deal, lowball bids can be a red flag for several reasons. Contractors offering such bids might cut corners by using subpar materials or unqualified labor. They might also underestimate the project intentionally to win the contract, only to hit you with unexpected costs later on.

2. Avoid Contractors with Limited Experience
Experience matters in construction. Contractors with a proven track record are more likely to deliver quality work on time and within budget. Be cautious of contractors who lack experience or have a history of incomplete projects. Research their background, ask for references, and check reviews to gauge their reliability and expertise.
