Assuring A Skillful Cabling Contractor: A "how To" Guide

By Jenny Peng


There is risk in everything. You can reduce your risk when it comes to locating a reliable cabling contractor. Follow these suggestions and lower the risk of finding a good cabling contractor.

Set up a written contract and have them sign it on the first day. This will let them know from the get go that you are serious about quality. Contact the people who gave recommendations and ask what their exact reasons were and if they would do it again.

Have a look at the cabling contractor's truck. Presentation also matters. You have to appreciate, the truck is that cabling contractor's office, and how he manages his truck is exactly what he's going to do with your job.

Ensure that they do not follow through by having a written contract with milestones so you can gauge the progress of their work. Ask for recommendations and cross reference them. Make sure the work is top quality by inspecting it immediately at the end of each day.

Do not wait to long to call in the cabling professionals. A small drip or leak can turn into a flooded room quickly. A cracked wall can start to crumble in days. Contact a cabling professional to prevent an emergency.

Inspect their work site regularly and ask how many years they have been in the business. Check their references with a keen eye for positive feedback. Ask how they will finish on time and get them to sign a contract to back it up.

Set a payment program from the beginning. Ten percent is the typical up front payment and more may be a red flag, but details should be managed before the work starts so there are no unpleasant money surprises. As a client you should expect to make regular payments during construction and should have the money ready and waiting on time. Nothing slows a project down like lack of payment.

The cabling contractor you hire to work on your roof should first of all understand the weather patterns in your area. If he works in a different locality, you should consider informing him of what the weather of your local area is like.

As one who hired a cabling contractor you have a responsibility to pay on time and check to see your project is running smoothly on a daily basis. Never discuss problems in view of the workers, as it is disrespectful. Do your best to keep your cabling contractor happy and they will do their best to keep you happy.
