[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My GC played this role for me (he also has a designer he works with). For example, suggesting I choose between two sinks, or going with me to the tile store and making suggestions about what would work best. I would not have wanted to do it alone but I also saw it as part of his job--doesn't the GC manage the project?[/quote] This is what I'm trying to understand - whether it's necessary to bring on another party to liaison between myself and the GC or if working directly with the GC myself would suffice. My impression is that some GCs will work with owners on selecting finishes others strictly do the installing. But beyond helping with the finishes, could a 3rd party project manager work with the GC to ensure the renovation stays within budget and timeline and act as the owner's advocate? Has anyone done something like this? [/quote]
