With all this building going on, good help is increasingly harder to find—which is a huge problem for homeowners who are interested in multi-room remodels. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we know that when you’re dropping that kind of cash on a major renovation to your most valuable asset, you need to know that the job is going to be done right. If it’s not, it’ll cost you in more ways than one. The wrong general contractor could actually hurt your home sale, especially if they do shoddy work, or poor management leads to endless delays. Its important to hire the right laborers for the job with the skills to do the work you need done. That right worker may or may not need to be a general contractor, depending on the size and scope of the renovation. Pinpointing how much it costs to hire a general contractor is tricky, because projects big enough to need a GC typically wrap labor costs into the overall project budget. Whether you need to hire a general contractor all depends on what work you need done in order to get your house ready to sell. If all you need are a few minor fixes, like new cabinet pulls installed, or a few holes patched in your walls, then it’s more cost effective to hire a less-expensive handyman.

The main difference between a general contractor and a handyman is that a handyman might do a lot of the work themselves, whereas general contractors operate more like managers, so they’ve probably got a crew of workers who’ll be doing a lot of the work at once. However, it may be wise to bypass hiring a general contractor if you only need one or two specialty jobs done, such as painting interiors, installing a new toilet, or replacing light fixtures.
