Experience and Expertise
The best general contractors bring years of experience and expertise to the table. They have a deep understanding of construction processes, building codes, regulations, and best practices. This knowledge enables them to anticipate potential challenges, identify cost-saving opportunities, and navigate complexities effectively. With a knowledgeable general contractor at the helm, you can rest assured that your project is in capable hands.
Project Management Skills
Managing a construction project involves coordinating multiple tasks, subcontractors, and timelines. A GC serves as the project manager, overseeing every aspect of the construction process from start to finish. They develop comprehensive project plans, establish realistic timelines, and coordinate all activities to ensure smooth execution. Their project management skills ensure that deadlines are met, resources are optimized, and quality standards are upheld throughout the project.
Quality Assurance
Maintaining high-quality standards is paramount in any construction project. A reputable general contractor is committed to delivering quality workmanship and results that exceed expectations. They collaborate with reputable subcontractors, suppliers, and vendors who share their commitment to excellence. Additionally, professional general contractors conduct regular inspections and quality checks to ensure that work meets industry standards and adheres to project specifications.
Cost Management
Keeping costs under control is essential to the success of any construction project. General contractors have the expertise to develop accurate cost estimates, identify potential cost-saving opportunities, and manage budgets effectively. They work closely with clients to establish realistic budgetary constraints and strive to deliver value without compromising on quality.
Risk Management
Construction projects are inherently complex and involve various risks, including delays, cost overruns, and unforeseen complications. Mares & Dow is well-versed in risk management strategies and proactive mitigation measures.

Compliance and Regulatory Adherence
Compliance with building codes, regulations, and permit requirements is non-negotiable in the construction industry. Reputable GCs have a thorough understanding of local building codes and regulations and ensure that all work is conducted in compliance with applicable laws. They obtain necessary permits, coordinate inspections, and ensure that projects meet regulatory standards and requirements, mitigating the risk of costly delays or legal complications.
