Before starting any demolition project, it is essential that you vet your Demolition Contractor. What are some of the items you should be looking out for? What are the best qualities? Let’s take a close look into what we believe the best qualities in a demolition contractor are.

1.) Licensed & Insured

2.) Established

3.) Team-Oriented

4.) Well-Maintained Equipment

5.) Responsive

First and foremost, your demolition contractor must be licensed and insured. This is essential as liability can become a huge issue on job sites where environments can be more injury prone than others. Additionally, your contractor must be licensed legally in the state where you are completing the project. The last thing you need is massive legal problems delaying your demolition project. Insurance not only protects the client, but also the company. A well-insured demolition contractor shows that the company cares deeply about its own practices and is committed to providing the best product possible.

Additionally, an established demolition contractor is without question the best demolition contractor to work with. Surely new demolition companies might provide a better deal or other incentives, yet there is no better indicator of future performance than past performance. If you’re looking for a guarantee that you will receive a top-quality product, utilize an established Demolition contractor that has a successful and high-level track record. Established Demolition contractors will not hesitate to provide testimonials and examples of past work.

Teamwork makes the dream work. It is no different in the construction industry. A company with a high-performing team shows its commitment to taking care of its employees and instilling great leadership values. Additionally, high-performing teams will complete jobs on time and deliver quality results. Turnover can often delay projects by months, yet a strong team will completely avoid this peril.

While Brand New Equipment does not define a demolition company, well-maintained equipment certainly does. When a company arrives with equipment that has been cleaned and maintained, it is a CLEAR indication of their attention to detail and commitment to their own investment. That is the kind of company you want working on your next project. There is no need to judge a company for using older equipment, but there is certainly reason to judge a company for mistreating new equipment. A company that puts in the extra effort to ensure that its image and livelihood are maintained is the same company that will put in the extra effort on your project to ensure it is completed to the highest degree.

Finally, ensure that your demolition contractor is responsive. This can be identified relatively early on in your initial contact. Why is responsiveness such an important component? Poor communication can often result in high tension between the client and contractor. Avoid this at all costs by hiring a contractor who is responsive, licensed & insured, established, team-oriented, and focused on maintaining their equipment.

More often than not, Demolition Companies neglect the digital component of their business. Let’s take a look into why a professionally developed website is one of the first things all Demolition companies should invest in and why Boston Demolition has never looked back!

First and foremost, your website represents your business in the ever-growing digital world. Why leave the interpretation of your business up to speculative searchers when you can precisely determine what is and what is not shared online? By having a website professionally developed, YOU determine the online narrative of your business. Looking to show online users that your business is polished and professional? Have a custom website developed using your branding and project content. Are there charitable organizations that you’re involved with? Share it on your website. Looking to share information about what licenses you have and what areas you operate within? Utilize a website. Why waste hours trying to convey small details to customers when you can simply direct them to the respective areas of your website which share far more information than they could have imagined?

Capture leads! How is your business currently capturing leads? Facebook? Instagram? Word of Mouth? By building a custom website for your business that has dedicated contact forms, owners of said businesses often find a 20% or more increase in revenue year over year just by allowing potential clients to provide their information in a secure online environment. Dictate exactly what information people provide upon initial contact. Direct contact forms to dedicate emails to ensure that inquiries are met with a timely response. As more and more businesses build their own custom websites, potential customers will simply move past those without an online presence.

Showcase your work! As briefly mentioned above, showcasing work online can truly seal the deal before even getting on the phone with the client. Past results are the greatest indicator of future performance – so show off your best to reassure clients that they are making the right decision by working with your company. Additionally, showcasing your work is something to be proud of. With a custom website, you can display captivating before and after shots as well as provide a list of trusted past clients.

Hire employees. In this day and age, recruiting laborers can be a difficult task. This task is 10x more difficult if they have nowhere to apply for jobs. With a custom website, you can seamlessly integrate application forms to ensure that you attract top talent.

Grow your business! All of these main points above will lead to one thing – growth! If you’re looking to grow your business into what you’ve always dreamed of, take advantage of the digital age and build a custom website.

Effective leadership is key to growing any business. From the office to the job site, you must ensure that each and every project is properly managed at every level.

So, why hire an Experienced Foreman?

The most basic advantages of Experienced Foremen are the following:

1.) Jobsite Management

2.) Team Motivation

3.) Command Over The Industry

4.) Effective Preparation

5.) Success-Focused

Let’s take a deep dive into these five advantages and see just why hiring an experienced Foreman may be the best thing you can do for your business.

First and foremost, Experienced Foremen can efficiently manage job sites. With their experience and ability to remain organized and level-headed, Jobsite management will significantly benefit. Foremen often operate as trusted employees who can make decisions, communicate with clients and contractors, order material, ensure safety protocol is followed, and more.

Not only can Foremen make game-time decisions, but they can also effectively motivate teams in order to complete jobs on time or early. We all have those days – where the clock simply could not go slower and our mind truly cannot focus. Foremen can often help those workers who may be having an off-day and assist them in staying on task. Not only that, but recognition from Foremen who are seen as trusted leaders can significantly boost morale.

Having command over the demolition industry and your local area of business is essential to the success of your company. By utilizing an experienced Foreman, you have a trusted individual who may already be extremely familiar with the area. Additionally, an experienced Foreman knows job sites inside and out, allowing for faster completion times and fewer errors in the workplace.

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail. Utilize your Foreman to prepare and each every project to the fullest extent. They’ll know what needs to be ordered, the manpower required, and the timeline to complete. This alone is a worthy reason to hire an experienced Foreman.

Finally, Foremen are focused on the success of your company. They care about the quality of their execution and understand that their work in the present will determine their future success. Experienced foremen understand that if they jeopardize the reputation of the company, they’re simultaneously jeopardizing their own reputation. Experienced Foremen care about the company they work for.
