"I found consistently positive reviews and high ratings for Wilber's Painting. So, when I hired this company I had very very high expectations. They not only met those expectations, but they far exceeded them. Everyone from Danny (estimator/manger), to Melvin (project/team manager), to the hard working painting crew (consisting of Yimi, Donaldo and Victor) was courteous, professional and conscientious. The painting crew worked tirelessly (even through uncomfortably high temperatures). They meticulously, respectfully and quietly, prepped and painted the house and garage. They performed the highest quality and cleanest prepping, cutting and painting that I have witnessed. They protected the siding, windows, roofing, gutters and surrounding property, surfaces, plants and AC equipment. They thoroughly cleaned up at the end of each day and at the end of the project. AND... Wilber's Painting quoted, and honored one of the most competitively priced estimates (with no additional cost overruns). I will definitely hire these hardworking professionals in the future. I rarely write reviews like this. However, I rarely find a contractor as good as Wilber's Painting!"

Cesar also fixed another home improvement project; we had not discussed. Lastly, the team cleaned-up after they finished the home projects."

Customers say: Quality work

"They are not local to my area. Please, hire local. And this is for Angi: Try not to recommend contractors who are a significant distance away, in this case around 80 miles (and 2 states) away. Great website, appears to be professionally designed and maintained, I like what they do (judging from the content in the website) but I am outside their service area. I don't live in that area. If I owned a home or apartment in that area, I would hire them."

"Darek is very professional and reliable. His main concern was always to make sure we were happy with the work, and he went out of his way to make that happen. The project was finished on-time, which is unheard-of in the construction business. My husband and I LOVE our new kitchen!! We would recommend DDP Construction wholeheartedly and will definitely call Darek again for any future projects."

FAQs for contractor service projects in Passaic, NJ

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

Before hiring a general contractor for your home project, it’s a great idea to write down a list of questions to discuss with each prospect. Some example questions to get you started include:

  • Which types of insurance do you carry?

  • Can you provide a list of references?

  • What is the expected timeline for this project?

  • How will my project be supervised?

  • Will you hire subcontractors for the job?

  • What is the best way to communicate changes?

  • Will you obtain all of the required building permits?

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.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

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.
