Finding the Best General Contractor

July 28, 2014 By Silicon X Construction

If you have a job that requires a general contractor coming up, you will no doubt be doing some extensive research before making a decision on whom to hire. The size of the job really doesn’t matter when it comes to expertise and professionalism. The contractor you choose should be experienced in a multitude of jobs and be able to complete the project within the budget and on time. While there are many choices to choose from, making the right choice is a little more difficult.

With the advent of the Internet, finding the right contractor for the job became easier. While relying on referrals still has a lot of merit, there are other options that are opened due to the nature of free information. More people are taking to the Internet to find services than ever before, so it’s only natural that we should supply some advice when it comes to finding a general contractor. This way, you are protected and confident in the decision that you make.

When choosing a general contractor, remember these tips:

  • Check online sources– There are plenty of review sites to determine whether or not a contractor is reputable. This goes above asking friends or family for a referral, because you’re getting a larger sample of the community. Sites like Yelp can help you find a highly rated contractor, which will typically mean a good experience for you as well. Don’t downplay the power of community crowd sourcing.
  • Know if they are legit– There are many companies that operate as a pseudo-legit entity. The contractor you choose should be licensed and insured. There should also be a portfolio of work or at least examples of what kind of skills they’re bringing to the table. This will ensure that you are getting the best work for your money and will hold the company accountable for any negligence.
  • Inspect the work– While you may by no means be an expert, you also know what you want. It’s always a good idea to inspect the work after the job is done to make sure everything is up to par. If the job was done well, then ok. But if there is something out of place or not up to your standards, then you should notify your contractor.

Know who you’re working with before you make your decision.

Tenant Improvements for your Business

July 14, 2014 By Silicon X Construction

We seem to be moving in a direction where everything is customizable and we can get services delivered that are to our exact specifications. The same notion should be applicable to the way you run and operate your business. If you have just taken over a new lease in a new place of business, you may need to add some improvements before conducting business.  This can include a new line of sinks if you just opened a salon, a new counter or workspace for a business, or a whole revamping of the area.

Whatever the job entails, know the experts for tenant improvements are just a phone call away. Silicon X Construction specializes in tenant improvements and we make sure our clients get the best. Whether it’s a major project that requires a large budget and a fair amount of work, or something small that can be taken care of in a few days, we are ready to handle your tenant improvement needs.

Different types of tenant improvements include:

  • Major Improvements- If you take over a business space, and the previous business wasn’t geared toward your industry in the slightest, then it’s probably time for a major overhaul. This can include taking out current fixtures and adding new ones, or putting in other trade fixtures to make your office work. This will set your business up for the future and get you started on the right foot.
  • Medium Improvements- Because there is always a middle ground, there is also ground between a major tenant improvement and a minor tenant improvement. This can include coming in and doing a job to a space with no existing fixtures. This can also mean adding new fixtures to existing fixtures, without the need of having to take out any existing components. This is true when certain fixtures already work where they are.
  • Minor Improvements- These are the types of improvements that can be made within a couple of days that don’t require taking out any existing fixtures. If you need a new sink put in, a new counter put in place, or something else that can be considered minor, we can specialize in that activity. The budget for minor jobs tend to be a lot lower than extensive jobs, and may save you some much needed cash.

Whatever the job you choose or need for your business, you’re in good hands with Silicon X Construction.
