Cate F. says, "If you are needing semi-minor to massive house/building restoration (or even full build from the ground up!), you are in excellent hands with TONY at Precise Building & Restoration. He is a licensed contractor who truly cares a lot about his work and his clients—not typical of all contractors, who often only care about their bottom line. Tony isn’t like that, and he has a heart of gold. In addition, he’ll honestly tell you what needs to be done and will deliver a fantastic final product. As you can see from my pics, one side of my home was crumbling (it was 99 years old) and likely would not have survived one more massive rain. Tony and his chosen crew did an outstanding job. The transformation was amazing!! If you are searching for a reputable contractor and bid, you MUST include Tony in your mix. You will see what I mean when you meet him. Hope this helps in your home reno endeavors."See more

Nancy A. says, "We contacted Transcend Demolition when embarked on a new project. It was hard finding a contractor we could trust. From the day we met John, he was very helpful, informative, and genuine. We felt comfortable moving forward with him. What was a routine demolition project turned into a complete construction project. To our surprise John and his crew were very knowledgeable in the construction field. We ended up coming to an agreement for him and his company to take charge of the project (decision we do not regret), they made this project very simple for us. John took charge of the entire project making our doubts and stress fade away. Any bumps that arose, John and his team handled everything smoothly and quickly. The best part was we no longer had to deal with any subs as they were a one stop solution for us; demolition, grading, construction, clean up, and even did the moving for us. Great service, reliable, trust worthy, and knowledgeable. Highly recommended."See more

Brianna S. says, "We couldn’t be happier with our decision to trust Eco Home Builders for our ADU project. From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, the entire experience was seamless, professional, and surprisingly personal. They didn’t just build an additional unit — they helped us create a space that feels like home. The design team took our vision seriously and brought it to life with creativity and care, while the construction crew worked with precision and integrity every step of the way. What really set them apart was their commitment to quality and communication. We always knew what stage the project was in, and any questions we had were answered with clarity and respect. Our ADU turned out better than we imagined — stylish, functional, and built to last. Whether you’re looking to create a rental space, a guest house, or a home for family, I can’t recommend Eco Home Builders highly enough. They’re more than contractors — they’re partners who genuinely care about your dream."See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

What do construction project managers do?

Construction project managers help in all stages of your construction project, starting from the very first step. Typically paid a percentage of a total project cost, they are part of the design and planning process and help ensure seamless communication between the design parties and the construction team. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, their scope of work includes preparing cost estimates, budgets and work timetables; interpreting and explaining contracts and technical information to other professionals; reporting work progress and budget to clients; collaborating with architects, engineers and other construction pros; selecting subcontractors and scheduling and coordinating their tasks; responding to work delays, emergencies and other problems; and ensuring compliance with legal requirements, building and safety codes, and other regulations.

The work of construction project managers may seem very similar to that of general contractors, but there are some critical differences. One difference is that, unlike most general contractors, project managers are not engaged in the actual construction — they are onsite overseeing the work of subcontractors. Another key difference is that project managers are hired during the design phase, while general contractors are hired after plans have been made. The project manager is generally paid a percentage of the total project cost, while the general contractor is more typically paid according to the bid they gave to build your project.  

How much does a project manager charge per hour?

You may choose to hire a construction project manager for your residential or commercial project. For the hands-on homeowner who wants to be involved in home construction but isn’t comfortable hiring subcontractors, a construction project manager can oversee these relationships and supervise labor. Typically, construction project managers charge a fee that is a flat percentage of the total construction project cost. This may range from 10 percent to 15 percent, depending on the company and the services they provide. This means a $30,000 home remodel project would have a construction project management fee of $3,000-$4,500. Hiring a construction project manager generally precludes the markup on subcontractor labor charged by a general contractor. The drawback to this choice is that, unlike a general contractor, the construction project manager won’t be financially responsible for the work of the subcontractors. For larger projects, you may hire a construction project manager who will also hire a general contractor. This provides the benefits of the general contractor along with the management services of the project manager, who will be on board from the beginning. The construction project manager will be involved in the design phase and work with the architects and the building crew, facilitating a smoother overall process.

How do I find out if a contractor is licensed?

It’s important to know if your project requires work by a licensed professional, as licensing laws can vary by state, locality, and job details. You can find general licensing information online at the government websites that handle occupational licensing for a given profession in your state or location. Some states designate a project cost over which you have to hire a licensed contractor. To find qualified licensed contractors, search your state’s licensing board. For example, in California, the Department of Consumer Affairs operates a searchable database through the Contractors State License Board. In some states, contracting licenses are provided at a regional level. You can find links to specific databases on BRB Publications’ Occupational Licensing page. Red flags that a contractor may not be licensed or may be providing an expired or false license number are unreasonably low bids or a request for complete payment upfront. For more, check out our tips for smart hiring on Thumbtack.

What is a contractor license number?

A contractor license number is proof that your contractor is operating their business legally, that they have the proper documentation required by your state or region, and that they are competent in their area of work (electrical, plumbing, construction, etc.). Licensed contractors should freely advertise their contractor license number. If not, you can request it before considering them for hire. You can also research your contractor using their license number. The database for your state will indicate the field they are licensed to work in; whether they are up to date on insurance, workers’ compensation and bonds; and whether they have any consumer complaints issued against them. If the licensed contractor you are hiring does not have employees, they are not required to carry workers’ compensation. Each state or region will have their own database for licenses, such as the State of Oregon Construction Contractors Board. For more, check out our tips for smart hiring on Thumbtack.
