How We Add Value For Our Clients
Diligent management, the highest standards.
Professional Construction Management
Our leadership team has built over 300 homes and has more than 60 years of combined construction and business-management experience. Our diligent planning, quality control and tight construction scheduling keep the schedule, the budget and the workmanship where you agreed them.
Cloud-Based Project-Management Software & App
We use industry-leading JobTread software to manage our construction scheduling and ordering, track client communications, and to document materials selections. Our clients use a desktop or mobile phone app to view their construction schedule, approve selections, and track the project’s progress.
Weekly Client Meetings
Scheduled Zoom or in-person Client/Contractor Meetings keep our clients informed throughout their construction project. We document all decisions, changes, and materials selection in JobTread software to minimize miscommunications and errors.
A Commitment to the Highest Building Standards
All of our work meets or exceeds the rigorous Residential Construction Performance Guidelines, published by the National Association of Homebuilders. No workers or subcontractors are allowed on the construction site until they have been fully vetted for their skills, licenses, and insurance.
Vetted Subcontractors
No worker or subcontractor is on your home until fully vetted for skills, license, and insurance — and every trade works to the written checklist.
In-House Master Carpenters
Our Master Carpenters set the standard for the work that matters most — framing, beam work, doors and windows, cabinets, and interior millwork — and every trade works to it.
