Should I Hire A Small Company For My Construction Project?

In this transcript, Cody Roderick, a representative of Home Love Construction, highlights the benefits of working with a smaller construction company. Firstly, he notes that smaller companies have a more significant attention to detail, making it less likely for things to fall through the cracks, and each job receives the necessary attention. Clients are not just a number in a spreadsheet, but part of a community where referrals and good reviews are vital.

Secondly, Cody mentions that smaller companies focus on ensuring customer satisfaction, which is their priority. In contrast, larger companies prioritize the bottom line, and this can sometimes compromise the customer experience.

Thirdly, working with smaller companies can provide a more intimate process for clients. They can communicate more easily, and the smaller team can provide a more personal touch.

Fourthly, smaller companies pride themselves on their workmanship, and each person in the team has a vital role to play. Clients can expect quality work from each member of the team, from tradesmen to craftsmen.

Fifthly, working with a smaller company ensures easy access to the people in charge. You can call their work phone and reach them directly without having to go through ten extensions.

Sixthly, the fear of the company going out of business is a con of working with smaller companies. It is always at the back of clients’ and employees’ minds, and this is not the case for larger companies like Home Depot and Lowes.

Seventhly, Cody mentions that smaller companies may not have as much experience as larger, national builders, but they have a great network of subcontractors and employees to reach out to when necessary. This means that they can still find solutions to problems even if they do not have 30 years of experience in a particular specialty.

Overall, working for or with a smaller company provides the attention to detail, personal touch, and pride in workmanship that larger companies may not provide. Smaller companies prioritize customer satisfaction and create a community that encourages referrals and good reviews. However, the fear of the company going out of business and potentially having less experience in specific aspects are cons of working with smaller companies.

Nonetheless, Cody reassures viewers that Home Love Construction has a great network of subcontractors and employees to handle any issues that may arise. In conclusion, Cody’s explanation highlights the benefits of working with a smaller construction company. While there are pros and cons to consider, smaller companies prioritize customer satisfaction, pride in workmanship, and provide a more intimate process that clients can appreciate.
