After evaluating a contractor's experience and reputation, you're ready to move to the next step: assessing the quality of their previous work. Remember, your commercial tiling contractor will be laying the foundation—literally—for your business premises. So, you want to make sure they have a track record of high-quality work.
So how can you assess the quality of a commercial tiling contractor's work? Here are some pointers:
Review their portfolio: A professional contractor should have a portfolio showcasing their previous projects. This could be on their website, social media pages, or even a physical portfolio. Look closely at the details. Does the tiling look neat and well-fitted? Are there any visible flaws?
Visit previous project sites: If possible, visit a few of the contractor's previous project sites. This will give you a firsthand look at their work. Remember, pictures can be deceiving. Seeing the work in person can help you gauge the quality more accurately.
Ask about their materials and techniques: Quality work comes from quality materials and proper techniques. A good commercial tiling contractor will be transparent about the materials they use and their techniques. Plus, they should be up to date with the latest industry standards.
Assessing the quality of a contractor's work can give you a good idea of what to expect for your own project. Don't rush this step. Take your time to ensure you're choosing a contractor who can deliver the high-quality work your business deserves.
