INSTALLATION SERVICES

Customer Requests

Clients don’t always know when union installation is a requirement.

Many times, customers call us for environmental branding & construction site signage without realizing their project scope requires union installation. Actually, almost every large format request! We break out some differences below, with some frequently asked questions below.

Quality ControL

non-union does not mean lower quality.

These installers may not be interested in larger projects  and can just be a better fit for smaller buildings. Non-union tends to be used outside of the city of Chicago. If you are the builder owner and your square footage falls under 80,000 square feet, you are probably safe to hire non-union installers..

Cost Considerations

Does union installation require extra investment?

Yes, this does require additional investment. Your account manager will assist with a custom project quote. There are too many variables to list here to provide ballpark pricing. We’re just being transparent and always happy to help you walk through pricing specifics.

Special Requirements

Are there special steps that need to followed prior to union installation?

No, there are no special requirements. Please keep in mind Cushing can still complete a site survey and take measurements on your job or work site, WITHOUT being union labor. You don’t need union labor to visit a site prior to installation and make recommendations.

It comes down to this: Once a hammer or drill is picked up, or graphics are being installed on a job site that is 80,000K square feet or above, you need union labor.
