It’s not not true 🙃 I’d be lying if if I said I didn’t like the chaos in construction. There’s always something going on and new problems to solve. No two jobs are the same, every one is truly unique. What about you? What are you in it for?👇 #construction #contractor #subcontractor #constructionmanagement #constructionlife #constructionsite #constructionworker #constructionindustry

I know a few construction workers who are very talented at what they do but… They’re not the best at answering their phone or getting back to people. This can have a negative effect on their business. I get it, they’re grafting all day and when they’ve sat down to eat their dinner the last thing they want to do is call people back. This is where I come in: Calls/messages can be forwarded to me and dealt with. I can pick up any enquiries via email and deal with them. If you struggle to get back to people I can help you. P.S - this isn’t just for construction workers, that was just an example.

When it comes to construction, temporary works are often an afterthought, but they play a huge role in keeping everything running smoothly. From safety to efficiency, here are 3 things to consider: 1️⃣ Always prioritise safety 2️⃣ Make sure they’re designed for the job 3️⃣ Plan ahead It’s the small things that keep projects on track and safe! How do you approach temporary works on your sites? Would love to hear your thoughts! #ConstructionSafety #TemporaryWorks

Do you actually know who your client is? My Client are theses fine specimens of construction professionals that work at Harper General Contractors with me. Their Client is who we are building for. If I see my client as anyone but our team that build, I have lost my focus. I have always said: “When a company takes care of its people, those people take care of your clients. When a company takes care of its clients, its people get left behind.” Know your customer and treat them well. It may not be who you think it is. #construction #constructionmanagement

Construction workers spend only 35% of their time on value-added tasks. Here is the remainder of their time: 1. Waiting 2. Travel and Setup 3. Administrative Tasks 4. Rework 5. Idle Time Imagine the results if your crews spent 55% on value added tasks?

Construction companies and developers often have multiple projects going at the same time, which means it's easy to get overwhelmed. Fortunately, general contractors are on top of it, and can take care of managing all of the material, labor, equipment, and services needed.

Choosing your construction contractor wisely is crucial because the quality, cost, and timeline of your project depend heavily on their expertise and reliability. A competent contractor will ensure that the construction is carried out to high standards, avoiding costly mistakes and delays. They will manage resources efficiently, adhere to safety regulations, and provide transparent communication throughout the project. Conversely, a poorly chosen contractor can lead to subpar work, budget overruns, and prolonged timelines, ultimately compromising the integrity and success of your construction project. #VisionsBuilder #MeasureTwiceCutOnce
