2015 Revenue: $3.5 million
Best practice: In the past, Nathan had problems with subcontractors being pulled onto different jobs, so now he’s willing to pay a premium to make sure his projects are completed correctly and on time. He also controls all materials for a project. Occasionally he runs into a tradesperson unwilling to work with this approach, but most of the time it hasn’t been a problem. Nathan’s system also helps the company control payments, so NWC doesn’t “get slapped with a materials lien down the road,” he explains. And there’s another benefit, he says: “Five years from now, if a homeowner has a problem—say their baseboard got ruined—we know exactly what they have in their home. I’m less confident that the subs will keep the proper paperwork.”

For Nathan, buying all materials for projects, including those the subs use, ensures a smoother production process.
