For general contractors and electrical contractors, picking the right subcontractor isn’t just about filling a slot on the bid sheet—it’s about finding a partner who helps your project succeed. At Halemeyer Group, we know how much is riding on your schedule, your reputation, and your bottom line. That’s why we believe every GC and EC should expect these four things from their concrete and site subcontractor.

1. Reliability That Protects Your Schedule
You shouldn’t have to wonder if your crew is going to show up—or if they’ll finish on time. A dependable subcontractor keeps your project moving by:
Sticking to agreed schedules.
Staying flexible when deadlines shift.
Delivering finished work that’s inspection-ready the first time.
When your subs are reliable, your whole project runs smoother.
2. Clear Communication From Start to Finish
No GC or EC wants surprises on the jobsite. A strong subcontractor provides:
Regular updates on progress and site conditions.
Proactive communication when issues arise.
Transparency on timelines, materials, and costs.
At Halemeyer Group, we believe communication is just as important as concrete.
3. Precision That Prevents Rework
Every re-pour or failed inspection costs time and money. That’s why precision matters in:
Trenching depth and spacing for conduit.
Proper reinforcement and forming before pours.
Clean finishes that meet or exceed spec.
The right subcontractor gets it right the first time—because your schedule depends on it.
4. A Partner Mindset, Not Just a Subcontractor
The best projects happen when subcontractors see themselves as partners, not just hired hands. That means:
Coordinating with other trades to avoid conflicts.
Keeping your big-picture goals in mind.
Taking pride in the quality of work that reflects on your name.
