Contractor Selection in the Portland Area

CIDA provides contractor selection services in Portland, Oregon. Selecting a contractor can be quite an undertaking. Luckily, we can assist you with pairing your project and a qualified contractor that will serve you well.
Experience is the best teacher when it comes to contractors and construction. Rely on our experience to help you find the best contractor for your project.
We can help you sift through your list of potentially well-suited contractors for your project. As well, you may rely on referrals of some of the professional and cost-effective contractors that we have sorted through over the years.
At Cida, we will make sure that you are paired up with the best team that suits your needs and stays within your budget. We will help you with the following:
1. Narrow down a list of qualified contractors
First we will help you firmly and clearly state the parameters and requirements of your current task at hand. We will help you identify contractors that meet the specific needs of your project.
2. Ask For Referrals And References
Once your list is ready, we will assist you and call each and every contractor. We will ask an exhaustive list of questions that we develop as a team. A good contractor should be able to provide you with a list of references of their previous customers.
3. Consider The Contractors Experience
It is always advisable to work with a contractor with specialized experience suited for the project you are undertaking. Find out the period of time they have been in business and also their area of specialization.
4. Verify The Information And Settle For A Contractor
Consider all the prospects carefully. Select at least three to five of the contractors in your prospect list. Invite them personally to your construction site and have a one on one interview. These meetings provide a perfect opportunity to verify their license and insurance. Always ask for proof of insurance.
You should also call the licensing authority and confirm that their insurance is valid. You do not want a situation where a contractor’s license is revoked in the middle of your project. After this research, pick the best contractor for your project
5. Demand A Written Contract
You now have a contractor for your project. Always get written contracts clearly specifying all the details that you discussed. A budget and schedule compliance is a must. Agree with your contractor beforehand on the start date and the completion date for your project.
