Your home is the foundation of your legacy.
You've poured over plans and options with your architect and it's time to make it real.
Your choice of builders will make all the difference.
Scope of Work
A strong foundation is woven with things you will never see. Knowledge is everything.
Let us help take the confusion and stress out of the process.
​
Site Evaluation
Location. Location. Location. Choosing the right spot to build prior to actual design is critical. That’s why we help clients and architects evaluate soils studies, setback requirements, zoning issues, etc.
​
​
Permit Services
Unfortunately, red tape is a large part of any building process. So we can help with obtaining permits for all aspects of building – from septic approval and bulkheads to stormwater systems and zoning variances. We’ll work with these agencies to make sure your project is monitored throughout the process.

​
Financial Evaluation
For residential projects, we assist in preparing bank documentation as well as analyzing the total project compared to other ones nearby where resale may be a major concern to the owner. We will work with the architect from the beginning design stages to provide current price analysis of systems and details to ensure that budgets align with plans so as to avoid those final bid shocks that we all too often hear about. For commercial projects, we offer complete project pro-forma services up to and including bank documentation for construction loans. We meet with the owner at the very beginning stages to help outline budgets and overall cost considerations for all those things that are overlooked until it’s too late.
Value Engineering
Here we can put our 43+ years of experience to work by assisting the architect and owner during the design process. By carefully tracking each component during the pre-and mid-design stages of plan development, we help ensure that the final plans and specifications are in line with the client’s budget. If changes need to be made, we can offer suggestions based on a wide range of experience working with many products and systems as a result of our many years of doing this very thing, and doing it successfully.

Post Construction Services
Since we know our client’s homes better than anyone, we often help with additions, remodels and maintenance after clients have lived in their homes for a while.
