Common challenges for contractors, builders and architects in Washington, DC
Hard to show quality online
Great work often isn't photographed or written up, so websites undersell what a firm can do.
Enquiries of mixed quality
Many enquiries are too small or outside your area, so qualification matters as much as volume.
Long, high-value decisions
Clients compare several firms over weeks or months, so your portfolio and credibility have to do much of the selling.
What's different in the USA
In the USA, contractors are licensed by each state and many states require licence numbers on advertising, while the title 'architect' is restricted to licensed professionals.
