The Roles And Responsibility Of A Contractor

Contractors are often the unsung heroes of business. They work hard, play hard and make sure that their clients get what they need without fuss or drama. This can be challenging at times but it’s well worth the effort if you want to build a strong relationship with your team. Here are some roles and responsibilities of contractors:  

Obtaining permits for construction

  • Permits are required for all construction work, including plumbing, electrical work, and heating/air conditioning.
  • You should check with your local building department.  Find out if there are any additional permits or requirements that you must follow before starting any project.
  • If you plan on doing remodelling or repairs in your home, you will also need a permit from your city or county’s permitting department.

Ensuring that building plans follow all state and local building codes

You must ensure that your building plans follow all state and local building codes. To do this, the first step is to find out if there are any specific codes for your project. You can do this by contacting the city or county in which you plan on constructing the structure. Once you have determined which codes apply to your project, it’s time to find out what they require of contractors who work on projects such as yours. In general terms, contractors must follow all applicable laws regarding construction safety.  This includes health and environmental issues (such as asbestos removal). They also need access to necessary permits before starting any work on a property. The lack thereof could result in significant fines against those involved in creating unsafe conditions to work in.   

Keeping the project on time

Keeping the project on time is a crucial part of your job as a contractor. If you’re not able to keep your client satisfied, they may choose another company that can do it better and more efficiently. To keep your project on schedule, there are several things you should consider:  

  • Check with subcontractors frequently to make sure they’re working at full capacity
  • Don’t allow subcontractors too much freedom—they may try to slack off if they think no one is watching them closely enough!
  • Be wary about hiring people who aren’t reliable (for example, if an employee has been fired from another company).

Developing accurate estimates of labour and material costs

As a contractor, you are required to develop accurate estimates of labour and material costs. Your job is to make sure that you have all of the information needed to estimate the cost of your work accurately. This includes:  

  • Experience with similar projects
  • Size of the project (in terms of square footage)
  • Special materials that may be required for this particular job

Hiring subcontractors 

Contractors hire subcontractors to perform specialized tasks. The tasks can be plumbing, roofing, drywall installation, painting, and floor installation. Deciding which contractors or subcontractors you should hire is a decision that depends on many factors. 

While there are no hard-and-fast rules for choosing good contractors or subcontractors (or even good supervisors), you can use the following guidelines: 

Understand what your goals are and where they fit into your long-term plans. Then ask yourself if the right person exists in your organization who could help achieve those goals better than anyone else currently available in the staff. Consider how many other projects similar might be completed by these same people within the next 12 months (or longer). Will more than one person be required to complete all components of this job? If so then consider hiring multiple contractors/subcontractors instead of just one.  Since each contracted service provider may specialize in various types of tasks depending upon their role within the overall project plan 

Adhering to the budget

Contractors must stay within their budget. This means that they need to estimate costs as accurately as possible, so that they can accurately monitor expenses during projects and adjust costs if necessary. It also means using a reliable contractor who has experience in this area. Even someone who knows how much money you need for your project and how long it will take them (and thus what amount of time should be allotted).  

Contacting city officials or inspectors for inspections

Contacting city officials or inspectors is needed to ensure that all regulations are being followed.

Giving a copy of your permit application to the city official or inspector, who can then contact you if there are any questions about the permits you applied for.

Coordinating work done by subcontractors

Subcontractors are important to the success of any project. They can be hired for specific tasks or entire projects, and they come in many shapes and sizes. The contractor handles coordinating work done by subcontractors but also will have to coordinate with other contractors who may be working on the job as well.

If you’re hiring a subcontractor, it’s important to understand what type of relationship you want with them: Is this going to be an ongoing relationship? Do we need someone who can do all types of jobs (construction, plumbing)? Or perhaps just one particular type of job (plastering) or speciality item (tiling).  

Maintaining and servicing equipment used throughout the construction

A contractor handles maintaining and servicing equipment used throughout construction. This includes everything from power tools to cranes, including all the parts that makeup those pieces of equipment. It’s important to maintain your equipment so it will last as long as possible, especially if you’re working on a large project like building a house or tearing down an old structure. If something goes wrong with one of your pieces of equipment, contact someone at the company who manufactures it so they can help fix it (this is usually done over the phone). You should also be aware of what maintenance tasks need to be regularly done on each piece of machinery before using them in an actual construction job because some items require regular maintenance while others only need their basic functioning checked every once in a while during normal use (for example chainsaws). 

Conclusion

As a contractor, you are in charge of all the work you do. It’s your responsibility to ensure that everything is done according to the specifications provided by your clients. You will need to keep track of all the details related to the project, so it makes sense that you should have a good working relationship with them as well.
