You are carrying every trade's paperwork as well as your own.
Eleven subcontractors means eleven sets of insurance certificates, waivers, submittals and notices, and one person holding all of it.
What goes wrong on general jobs
An expired insurance certificate, a missing preliminary notice, an unsigned waiver. Any one of them stops a draw, and you usually find out from the lender.
How the paperwork actually moves
General contracting draws carry the most backup: conditional and unconditional waivers from every sub and supplier, compliance tracking, retainage, and the schedule of values the whole thing is measured against.
Nothing goes out without your say-so. Money and commitments stop at you by default. We write it up, you make the call. That is how the system is wired, not a habit we ask you to build.
What we take off your desk
- Draws built and submitted against the schedule of values, with the waivers attached, inside two days.
- Change orders priced and approved before the work proceeds, not argued about afterwards.
- Subcontractor compliance — certificates, licences and waivers tracked, with gaps chased before money moves.
- California deadlines tracked, including preliminary notice and 20-day notices, so lien rights are not lost by a date nobody watched.
- Your customer kept informed, so the person paying the draw knows what they are paying for.
- A named project manager on your account, with a trained office crew behind them and our software doing the reading.
Questions general contractors ask
Do you track subcontractor compliance?
Yes — insurance certificates, licences and lien waivers tracked against the payment schedule, with anything missing chased before disbursement rather than discovered at closeout.
Do you file preliminary notices?
Preliminary notice is a California deadline, and missing it can cost you lien rights on work you already did. The deadlines are tracked per job and per tier.
Who is answerable for the job?
A named project manager on your account, with a trained office crew behind them. Not a shared inbox and not a pool of assistants.
