Laura M. says, "We hired Isaac after getting other Contractor bids that were higher. He is a very good contractor. He sourced 2 different groups of individuals to complete our work. The flooring installers and painters were skilled, professional, and worked long, hard hours to get the work completed. Initially Isaac was hired to do 2 projects. The first was removing old carpet in 4 rooms and replacing with vinyl plank flooring. The second was to update an old bathroom with a new vanity, toilet, and adding shelves to the closet. The project took a tangent when decayed wood was found in the subfloor. Isaac immediately and quickly found a resolution by removing and replacing subfloor. The additional project was added and completed, adding only 2 days to the timeframe. I recommend Isaac and would like to hire him in the future to do another project. So why did I give only 4 stars? I am new to hiring contractors outside my family. Unfortunately my relatives who are carpenters have all retired and I had to venture out of my comfort zone. My brothers are top notch and I am biased. I am a perfectionist and will admit that it is hard for another person to know what I want 100%. I also had to get used to a “contractor” versus a “carpenter.” I was happy with the contracted out work, though. I did appreciate when Isaac did do certain jobs by himself because there were things I felt needed special attention. I am thankful that I hired Isaac and overall, the job as a total was a success!"See more

Andrea S. says, "I had a pipe burst in December, the day after Christmas. Ann came out two weeks later and was so kind and understanding, helping me every step of the way with navigating insurance and deciding how to approach the repairs needed. Ann was always super responsive! The work they did on our house brought me to tears—it was finally nice to have my house back after 6 months of navigating issues with my insurance company and finally being able to give them the green light on getting things fixed. I will forever be grateful to Ann and her team. Lauderbaugh will always be who I call in the future. You can’t beat their kindness and the work they do! If you’re questioning between going with someone else and Lauderbaugh, you’re choice is easy. Lauderbaugh."See more

Q & A

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.

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.  

Do general contractors offer remote or virtual services?

General contractors perform manual work and typically need to be present to complete their projects. However, if you come across a profile that states the contractor is offering remote services, ask what those services include. You can also ask if they can perform a consultation via video call and if they can do the job while following guidelines from the CDC and local agencies.
