Unlike many other industries in North America, the demand for commercial and residential contractors and workers has continually grown since 2012. General contractors are reporting their biggest backlog of work in years, thanks to increased consumer demand, coupled with the unprecedented low interest rates. In fact, with over 400 active and upcoming construction projects in North Carolina, this state ranks within the top 15 states in the United States for construction demand today. The good news is that many general contractors are frantically searching for subcontractors and material suppliers to keep their projects on schedule and meet completion deadlines.
PlanHub allows you to see the current projects available for bid throughout North Carolina. You can search for North Carolina projects by location too, such as Winston-Salem or Greensboro. You can easily find multi-family and tenant improvement projects in and around big cities like Charlotte. You can also search by the various contract types such as new commercial construction projects, commercial remodels, or road work projects in larger cities like Raleigh, with a few mouse clicks. You can learn more about PlanHub’s listings of current Georgia subcontractor jobs here.
North Carolina requires all general contractors, and most subcontractors, to hold a current contractor’s license issued by the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors. In addition, there may be specific bond and insurance requirements listed in greater detail on the state website.
Understanding the state’s latest worker safety requirements will be helpful as you prepare your bids for North Carolina construction projects. If you’re considering bidding on projects in North Carolina, you will want to visit the North Carolina Worker Safety website.
Material suppliers and subcontractors constantly struggle to find and connect with reputable and busy general contractors. PlanHub has reviewed the most recent construction industry data to determine North Carolina’s most prominent and active general contractors, and here are their website links.
Plans for new construction projects go out to bid once the architect has finalized the plans with the project owner. Depending on the project’s size and scope, new drawings can take a few weeks to several months to complete. While we can’t speak for other plan room services, once PlanHub receives a new construction project, the plans, specs, and bidders list are available online within four hours.
Once you’re properly licensed, you can begin submitting your bid to the general contractors bidding on the project. GCs will submit their bids to the project owner. You may access the PlanHub plan room to pick and choose the projects that interest you and start your takeoff process. Certain publicly funded projects may contain specific bidding requirements or forms, typically included with the plans and specs.
The AGC of North Carolina provides training, support, and business resources to help contractors (and subcontractors too) build a better construction environment for the future.
Some similarities from one state to the next are typical since most state building codes provide a baseline of occupant safety and comfort. However, every state creates its building code to address localized environmental issues such as hurricanes, tornadoes, landslides, flooding, and even earthquakes
