Questions

People Also Ask

Avoid statements that weaken your negotiating position or cause confusion.

For example:

  • “Do whatever you think is best” (without clear specifications)

  • “Just use your discretion on materials”

  • “I don’t care about costs”

These statements can lead to misunderstandings and scope creep.

It’s better to state your priorities clearly (e.g., “We want durable but cost-effective materials”) and ask for a written spec sheet.

A general contractor manages the overall project.

Coordinating subcontractors, overseeing schedules, ensuring permits and inspections, and handling material procurement.

A construction contractor might perform more specialized or trade-specific tasks (e.g., plumbing, framing, electrical), and we also manage the entire project.

The property owner or client pays the general contractor.

Payment is typically structured in progress payments or milestones, rather than all at once.

In Texas, under the Texas Prompt Payment Act, clients must pay general contractors within 35 days of receiving an invoice for work properly performed. Review the Property Code.

Several warning signs may indicate a contractor isn’t operating honestly, and knowing what to look for can help you avoid costly mistakes.

Start by examining the contract.

A legitimate agreement should include the full scope of work, specific materials and brands, a clear project timeline, and a defined payment schedule.

If any of these details are missing or vague, that’s a red flag.

Always verify credentials before hiring.

While Texas does not require a state-level license for general contractors, many municipalities do, especially for specialized work such as plumbing or electrical.

Confirm that your contractor holds the appropriate local license and can provide proof of liability insurance and bonding to protect your property.

You can also check professional directories to find reputable contractors.

The Procore Construction Network, for instance, currently lists 3,854 General Contractors in Dallas, TX, and allows you to search for contractors that meet your specific business needs.

A helpful way to compare professionals based on reviews, experience, and verified credentials.

Finally, beware of contractors who demand large upfront payments, avoid written agreements, or refuse to provide references.

A trustworthy general contractor will offer transparency, clear communication, and verifiable qualifications from the very start.

While some smaller jobs in Dallas, TX, may come with a 50% deposit, it’s not typical for larger remodels.

For large-scale projects, most contractors request 10%–25% down to cover initial costs.

Important Note: In Texas, there’s no legal cap on upfront payment amounts, so it’s essential to negotiate terms that feel fair and safe for both parties.

Yes. Being transparent about your budget helps a contractor propose solutions that match your expectations (materials, finishes, scope).

It avoids overbuilding or unrealistic quotes.

A good contractor should tell you what’s possible within your range and suggest trade-offs to stay on budget.

In the DFW area, the best time to start a home renovation project or commercial construction is September through May.

During these cooler, drier months, contractors generally have greater scheduling flexibility.

They can provide better attention to detail, as the workload is lighter than in peak summer months.

Starting your remodel in the fall or winter also helps you find skilled tradespeople more easily, as demand drops slightly after the busy spring-summer building season.

Weather conditions are more favorable for both interior and exterior projects, reducing delays and improving material performance.

Ultimately, it depends on your project’s scope and your household’s or business’s needs.

Planning early allows you to lock in availability, secure competitive pricing, and ensure your contractor delivers the highest-quality results.
