📜 Cold Call Script — Property Manager

Opening
Hi, this is [Your Name] calling from B A Construction. We're a Class B licensed General Contractor here in San Diego — license number 1021495, 25 years in business. I'm specifically reaching out to property managers because we specialize in trip hazard removal and concrete grinding — and frankly, most properties we look at have liability exposure the owner doesn't even know about yet. Do you have 60 seconds? [IF YES] We go out, assess your sidewalks and common areas at no charge, identify every trip hazard, and grind or repair them — usually for a fraction of what concrete replacement costs. One slip-and-fall claim is worth more than everything we charge in a year. As a full General Contractor we also handle everything else — framing, drywall, painting, epoxy floors, you name it. But trip hazard removal is where we save property managers the most money the fastest. I'd love to put us on your vendor list and schedule a free walk. Can I send you our license info and set something up? [GET: Name, email, best time to follow up] [IF VOICEMAIL] Hi [Name], this is [Your Name] from B A Construction — Class B General Contractor, San Diego, license 1021495. We specialize in trip hazard removal and concrete grinding for commercial properties and HOAs. One free assessment, no obligation. I'll follow up by email as well. [PHONE].

📜 Cold Call Script — HOA

Hi, I'm trying to reach whoever handles maintenance or vendor contracts for your HOA — is that you? [IF YES] Great — this is [Your Name] from B A Construction. We're a Class B licensed General Contractor in San Diego, 25 years in business. We work specifically with HOAs on trip hazard removal and sidewalk grinding — it's one of the biggest unaddressed liability issues we see in common areas. Most HOA boards don't think about it until there's a claim filed. We go out, walk the property for free, flag every hazard, and give you a written assessment. No cost, no commitment. As a full GC we handle everything — but trip hazards are where we stop problems before they become lawsuits. Can I get your email and set up a free walk? [GET: Name, email, board contact if possible]

💡 Tips

  • Call between 9–11am and 2–4pm for best answer rates
  • Don't pitch on the first call — get permission to send info
  • Always get a name before hanging up
  • If you get a gatekeeper, ask: "Who handles your maintenance vendors?"
  • Log every call — even no-answers

💬 Door Script

Hi! I'm [Name] with B A Construction — we're a Class B licensed General Contractor here in San Diego, been in business 25 years. I'm dropping off our info for whoever handles your maintenance vendors. We work a lot with commercial properties on trip hazard removal and concrete grinding — basically sidewalk and concrete liability issues before they become a claim. We also do full GC work — flooring, framing, painting, you name it. Is there a property manager or facilities director I could leave this with directly?

💡 Tips

  • Go out Tuesday–Thursday — property managers are usually in office
  • Commercial corridors: go during business hours (9am–3pm)
  • Don't leave flyers on cars — it reflects poorly
  • Wear a clean shirt — you're representing the company

⚙️ Concrete Grinding Price Estimator
San Diego County · Surface prep & material removal
Total Square Footage
Material to Remove
Surface Condition
Project Location
Site Access
Trip Hazard Removal / Concrete Grinding
$3 – $8 per linear foot
Depends on: Severity of the lip, length of the run, site access, ADA compliance requirements.
Talk Track
"We typically run $3–$8 per linear foot depending on severity. Fast, minimal disruption. Best way to nail the number is a quick walk-through — free estimate?"
Sticker shock: "A slip-and-fall claim costs 10x this. The fix pays for itself."
Epoxy Flooring
$3 – $7 per sq ft
Depends on: Surface prep needed, coating type, square footage.
Talk Track
"$3–$7 a square foot — prep is the biggest variable. We'll give an honest number after looking at it. Free estimate, no pressure."
Sticker shock: "Lower maintenance than tile long-term. Seals, cleans easy, lasts."
Concrete Repair / Patching
$200 – $600 per area
Depends on: Size, depth, structural vs. cosmetic.
Talk Track
"$200 for small cosmetic fix, up to $600 if it's bigger or structural. I'd rather get Eli to look than give you a wrong number. Free estimate, 15 minutes."
Sticker shock: "Small cracks become big liability fast."
General Contracting / Framing / Drywall / Painting
Project-Based — free estimate required
Examples: Tenant improvements, ADA compliance, renovations, interior build-outs.
Talk Track
"Priced per project — too many variables to quote blind. CA licensed, bonded to $500K, commercial and federal work. Get Eli to walk it with you, free estimate, no commitment."
🔑 The Golden Rule: Never commit to a number you don't have. Every conversation ends with: "Let me get you a free estimate — usually 15 minutes on-site."
