Three Insights on Contractors
Did you ever wonder what general contractors want most from their glazing contractors, their positive and negative experiences with fabricated glass suppliers, or how they view the importance of glass manufacturer certification programs?
Now you can find the answers to these and many other questions from Vitro Glass. We recently commissioned a survey of nearly 150 general contractors around the country. Conducted by an independent building research company, we gained insights into multiple factors that influence glazing channel decisions by general contractors, including many that can lead to actionable insights for your business.
For instance, did you know that:
- Using glass supplied by a fabricator that is certified by a glass manufacturer is considered “extremely important” or “very important” by a sizable percentage of survey respondents.
- Nearly 60 percent of surveyed general contractors said lead times were either “extremely important” or “very important” for job scheduling and overall project success.
- Five to 6 weeks is considered an acceptable lead time for fabricated glass by the largest number of survey respondents, but that a significant percentage would prefer their glass even sooner.
