Starting Your Business
Whether we are in a recession or the economy is booming, starting a remodeling business can be a very profitable venture. Most people interested in this type of business have carpentry skills and are familiar with other aspects of the construction trade. Not saying that you have to have carpentry or construction trade skills to start a remodeling business, just that most do.
Growing Up a Remodeling Company
Start small. If you are fortunate enough to find them, commercial contracts and major whole-house remodels are tempting, because they are generally lucrative. However, these projects are usually on tight deadlines and may involve major coordination with other contractors. As a new remodeling company, take advantage of smaller projects for individual homeowners. Small jobs allow you to get used to run the company and provide more leeway for unexpected delays. They can also generate word of mouth referrals and repeat business. As you gain experience and confidence, you can move smoothly into more complicated jobs.
