"This was a trial job before a potential kitchen removal. It involved moving our boiler a short distance, walling off the area, fixing the floor, some electrical. The Babcock family themselves professional but didn't follow thru with the subs. The subs were only concerned with doing the fastest, cheapest job they could do (classic example is on the plumbing rework, the plumber substituted PEX for copper and the former isn't rated for the latter job)."

"So far not so great. We had 5 windows installed on 12/31 and the job was not great. Each of the windows have a noticeable breeze coming in through the trim work (some leaking worse than the original window in its place). This in itself was just the start. They have been a nightmare to contact. We made several attempts through phone and email over two days, once being transferred 4 times before that rep tried texting our rep with zero success. It wasn't till we escalated higher that they finally got in contact. So far this has been a poor start to contract that we will be paying for many years. (Edit - Reduced to 1 Star. As we were told we would hear from the service team and after giving another two days there has still been no communication and no manager has reached out to us either, though the response from Andersen stated one would reach out ASAP. The lack of communication is severely disappointing. Finally had the team come a month later 1/31/25 drywall damaged during removal.) (Edit 2 - Wish I could take away the single remaining star. This company is so beyond incompetent and unprofessional. They do not care about their customers and continue to provide zero service. Today 3/1/2025 two months after install we were supposed to have the drywall repaired from the damage done on reinstall. The contractor never showed, never reached out and there was zero way for us to contact anyone within the company. After many attempts through email and phone we are left with no confidence that this will ever be fixed. DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO DESTROY YOUR HOME!)"

Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
General contractors are the ones that coordinate home construction projects. They are in charge of the day-to-day oversight of the subcontractors to ensure that the project is completed on time and to resolve problems as they arise. General contractors:
Complete pre-construction planning, both with the customer and crew
Provide realistic cost estimates
Develop construction timelines
Ensure deadlines are met
Acquire permits as needed
Purchase supplies and materials
Before hiring a general contractor for your home project, it’s a great idea to write down a list of questions to discuss with each prospect. Some example questions to get you started include:
Which types of insurance do you carry?
Can you provide a list of references?
What is the expected timeline for this project?
How will my project be supervised?
Will you hire subcontractors for the job?
What is the best way to communicate changes?
Will you obtain all of the required building permits?
While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand.
