George H. Hutchinson, Sr., and sons William A. Hutchinson, Sr. and George H. Hutchinson, Jr. founded the Hutchinson family business in 1948. George and his sons started Hutchinson Engineering with their accumulated wealth – $35 in a cigar box – in rural Haddonfield, New Jersey. Serving all of South Jersey, Philadelphia, & Hunterdon, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, Somerset, & portions of Warren & Westchester Counties.

"Company is way to expensive and the work was not mediocre. They use GoodLeap for financing, and they rip you off with that contract as well. Stay away!"

These guys came in and put a round small cylinder well. Water pumps up into our yard turning it into a swamp. Called them to come and see the problem they created. Their response $2900 to fix THEIR DAMAGE. I WOULD NEVER RECCOMEND THIS COMPANY!!"

Subcontractors questions, answered by experts

Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand. 

Whether it's better to buy or build a chicken coop depends on your priorities. Do you want to save money? If so, then you should build your own chicken coop because it will cost much less—about half—than buying a chicken coop. If you want a perfectly constructed coop with all the bells and whistles without sacrificing your time and energy, it's better (or at least easier) to buy one.

Most commercial projects take 3-7 days, including curing time, depending on size and weather conditions.

On average, the cost to transform your garage into a workshop is about $2,000. The overall project cost depends on the type of workshop you want to build and its size. Regardless of the type of workshop, you’ll still need basic workshop spaces and equipment such as a workbench, cabinets, and space for storage and for working.
