| From site preparation to the last nail, every project aspect is handled with a careful eye for detail and pride of craftsmanship. With this we combine attention to contract preparation and a spreadsheet that identifies line item costs for each phase. Dovetailing our "spreadsheet" of costs, we assemble a "specifications" spread. These two contract critical documents enable us to manage both budget and forward progress. Visualization can be difficult for the owner. Bridging these gaps from the client's expectation and vision, to the realities of "the field", is one of our specialties. Conveyance of critical details and keeping current with plan changes, requires a sound process to seamlessly execute. Being ever aware of our current market, our approach to general contracting acknowledges the importance in accurate cost analyses, including offering options and a reduced builder's fee. Lenders, appraisers and the consumer favor our approach to proposals and billing. As general contractor, we involve only the best sub contractors to complete all the required aspects of today's custom and semi-custom homes. We are maintaining a proactive market research approach, with our awareness on your home's "carbon footprint". |

 Using conventional building materials, newer age natural products and, "green certified materials", I am here to offer design and detailing to help you find the professional criteria required to bring your project to fruition. I personally promise a well-built, cost appropriate, quality home with care taken to each of the many systems that complete a modern structure. In this changing market our company is rapidly adapting to this process. We offer building techniques and materials, compliant with the many "Green", "LEED", and sustainable concepts; or simple common sense approaches to recycling and material choices with sustainability awareness. The essence of sustainability, as the word implies; is to construct and create in a manner such that the project will sustain itself over the course of time. Meaning that poorly appointed details that cause material failure, leading towards replacement, is counter productive from any standpoint. We have both knowledge and experience for upgrades in insulation and weatherization techniques. Our heating and cooling approach tracks leading technology, utilizing modern heat pump equipment. We are a smaller company, typically engaged in 1 or 2 projects at any given time. This permits my presence in the field on a daily basis; important to our business model. We aggressively pursue any opportunity to embark on a project utilizing forward thinking materials, technologies, and techniques. If interested we can offer a non bias "home inspection service" providing the owner with a "Certificate of Occupancy". Air tight analysis of the completed house can be confirmed with, out-sourcing a "blower door" test and evaluation. This helps establish and eliminate concerns for heat loss. Large or small, simple or complex, residential or commercial, we want to be your home town builder. Please call us for a free consultation and estimate on your personal building needs. We welcome the opportunity to be your full service general contractor. |
