Finding a concrete contractor can be as simple as a quick online search. Granted, there are various companies to pick from, but choosing the right company for your needs is not as simple. There are a few important things you should consider before hiring a concrete contractor for your project.

Location, Location, Location

You should first ask potential vendors about the service are they cover. Many companies only service a specific area, which is generally a radius around their office location. This may include your work site, but if it does not, you can ask them if they would be willing to widen their work radius to include your project site. Oftentimes companies are willing to work with you if you just ask. Cobra primarily serves the Chicagoland area, but can accommodate locations nationwide depending on the project’s scope.

Project Start Date

All projects have a time table. Whether or not it is met is a different story. Be sure to consider a contractor’s start date. If your project is under a time crunch, choosing a company who can begin right away may save your project from going over budget and over time. Select a company, such as Cobra, who is known for 24/7 access and quick response times.

Safety Concerns

Potentially hazardous working conditions in the construction field can lead to headaches and unnecessary financial burden. At Cobra, you can feel secure knowing each member working on your site has been certified with an OSHA-30 Hour Construction Safety and Health Card. Cobra also implements several annual orientations, monthly safety meetings, and various safety trainings. These are not just for the advantage of our employees but to the advantage of all who are involved on each project. We place high emphasis on the safety of our employees and the conditions they work in, making sure no one is put in a situation they are not trained to handle.

Researchers have begun pushing back against the concept.
