Badly. Don't trust these guys. They are SLOW. The quality of the work is piss poor. They will promise you all sorts of things and never deliver on them. Their idea of $600 lawn re-seeding is to sprinkle $10 worth of grass seed on hard-packed dirt. The patio they built has a low spot in the...

Johnson's met with us and our builder to discuss the best foundation for an outbuilding. They asked questions about what we would use the building for, any concerns we had, etc. and provided a prompt estimate. Their charges were exactly what the estimate was. They made several...

FAQs for pole barn building projects in Swisher, IA
Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
General contractors are the ones that coordinate home construction projects. They are in charge of the day-to-day oversight of the subcontractors to ensure that the project is completed on time and to resolve problems as they arise. General contractors:
Complete pre-construction planning, both with the customer and crew
Provide realistic cost estimates
Develop construction timelines
Ensure deadlines are met
Acquire permits as needed
Purchase supplies and materials
While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.
