What Does a General
Contractor Do?

A general contractor is responsible for managing and overseeing construction projects from start to finish. This includes coordinating labor, sourcing materials, scheduling work, and ensuring the entire project is completed according to plan.
Instead of hiring multiple subcontractors and trying to manage everything yourself, a general contractor acts as the central point of control — making the process more efficient, organized, and predictable.
General contractors handle:
 
  • project planning and coordination
  • hiring and managing subcontractors
  • scheduling timelines
  • ordering materials
  • ensuring quality control
  • managing permits and inspections
