Regardless of if this is your first major construction project or your 100th, we want this to be the best and easiest project you have experienced, and it all starts with our pre-construction process.
pre-construction
1. initial planning phase
The initial planning stage is critical in any construction project. During this phase, we work closely with clients to establish project goals, budget, timeline, and realistic expectations. While some clients excel at this stage, organizing their ideas and pieces efficiently, others struggle and may become overwhelmed at the prospect of moving to the next phase.
For those who find the planning phase challenging and prefer to start the project immediately, our team can serve as a sounding board and help consolidate their ideas into a concrete foundation. If you're concerned about the feasibility of your project, timeline, or budget, we are prepared to discuss your concerns and initiate the planning process.
2. design phase
The design phase is often when clients recognize the need for additional support. During this stage, architects and engineers are brought in to create blueprints, and thorough research is conducted on regulations, codes, and permitting. Despite the paperwork and attention to detail involved in this phase, it's an exciting time as it marks the first tangible step towards realizing the project. As a client, you will begin to witness elements of your vision taking shape and becoming a reality.
At this point, our team steps in to alleviate the burden for our clients. Many of the tasks and terminologies involved may seem unfamiliar, but we possess extensive experience in this field and can help break down the process into more manageable pieces. However, it's during the following Pre-Construction phase when we see the twinkle in our clients' eyes return as they begin to witness their project taking shape.
3. pre-construction phase
This is the pivotal stage that sets the rest of the construction process in motion. It encompasses a range of activities, including contract negotiations, project analysis, site evaluations, permit acquisition, and scheduling. We have a wealth of experience in this phase and are committed to delivering excellent outcomes for our clients.
Regardless of whether this is your first or fiftieth construction project, we can add value to this phase by providing an unbiased perspective, recommending reliable local vendors and subcontractors, and identifying cost-saving opportunities to help you maintain your budget and timeline. As we check off each task in this phase, the shot is fired, and the race to completion begins in earnest.

beyond the building
Our role in the construction industry extends beyond just being the general contractor. With a vast knowledge base and years of experience, we provide our clients with expert guidance throughout the entire process, from conception to completion.
Unlike most general contractors, who typically base their bids solely on the prints, we take a more intentional approach. We help our clients understand the full picture, identifying any potential issues that may cause increased cost and time down the road.
LET'S CONNECT
We take pride in fostering strong relationships with our clients, vendors, suppliers, and subcontractors. Instead of opting for the lowest bid and switching between vendors and subs with each project, we have built trust and shared goals with many other companies. This allows us to deliver the highest-quality finished product for our clients.
Our ultimate goal is to provide the best possible outcome for your project, and we know that we cannot achieve this alone. You can trust us to have your best interests in mind and collaborate with the best in the industry to bring your vision to life.
