If you’re a developer planning out your next residential or commercial development you’ll benefit greatly from hiring a drywall contractor. However, it may seem like a huge undertaking to try and figure out the best one to work with.

Finding the right contractor means weeding out the ones that lack experience and are unreliable.

The Best Questions to Ask a Commercial Drywall Contractor

When hiring commercial drywall contractors you’ll want to ask these questions to get a better understanding of what it will be like to work with them.

Do you have your own crew or do you subcontract?

Depending on the company’s business model they may choose to subcontract certain jobs. This means that the company you’re hiring may not be the ones fulfilling the actual work, just overseeing it.

If you work with a company that has its own crews who they’ve worked with for years, you can trust in the work that they’ll provide you. The Ottawa Drywall Guys are a team of drywall specialists who have all been individually trained by CEO, Nick Saloman. Before anyone is allowed to complete a drywall installation job, they are provided with direct training to ensure consistent results!

How long have you been in business?

This question provides insight into the experience and skill set that the commercial drywall company will bring to your development project. New or young companies can prove to be risky to work with since they may not have experience taking on the demands of a commercial drywall installation.

The Ottawa Drywall Guys have over 10 years of experience working on all kinds of drywall installation projects. From commercial drywall installation for retail buildings to residential projects involving new builds, our team has seen it all.

What are some other development projects you’ve worked on?

Again, this type of question gives you the right knowledge of the drywall contractor’s experience with development projects in your area. Working with a contractor who has the experience and is reliable is the best way to ensure your drywall installation is in capable hands.

Our experience in drywall installation spans both residential and commercial projects. We’ve proudly worked with trusted developers to install drywall in new build houses across the Ottawa area. We’ve also worked with a number of home renovation companies to complete drywall installations for their various large-scale projects.

What kind of tools and materials do you use?

This question allows you to understand the level of quality the drywall contractor values. If you’re contracting out your work, you want to ensure that the standard of quality remains consistent throughout your whole development project. You want to trust that when the drywall company you hired arrives at a job, they’ll show up with the right tools and material to get the job done efficiently.

A top priority for the Ottawa Drywall Guys is to provide high-quality results! This means investing our time and effort into getting the best possible materials and continually working towards advancing our skill set. We use 1/2″ CertainTeed lightweight drywall (even 5/8 drywall to prevent noise or if plans call for fire-rated). We install all drywall with 1 1/4” Grabber drywall screws, and no nails.
