General Contractor

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. The best piece of advice I can give to an individual looking to hire contractor is to take your time in choosing a licensed contractor. Ask for references and check with the license board to verify their license information. I would also recommend that you ask for several bids from different contractors to make sure you are getting a fair price, be cautious about going with the lowest bidder for they more often than not will end up asking for more money at some point. Lastly once you have chosen your contractor be sure he includes a lot of detail in his bid make sure he has been thorough in his planning, or you may end up having to pay later for what you thought you were paying for now.

Q. What important information should buyers have thought through before seeking you out?

A. The more details provided will help us better plan and estimate your project. Although we are willing to meet at the location and plan the project from start to finish, many times our customers desire to be involved and have special requests. It is important that these requests and any other details be made clear at the onset of a project so as to ensure the project runs smoothly and our customers are satisfied.

Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?

A. In ancient times builder and architects were among the elite of society, architecture and the implementation of artistic design in construction has been a critical cornerstone in the development of society and culture. In recent times this sense of beauty has been lost and substituted with a “cheaper is better” mentality, what many people have failed to realize is that quality, sustainability, and beauty are not only more appealing visually but also more cost effective in the long run. The great architect Frank Lloyd Wright once said “form follows function” it is this basic principle accompanied with quality of workmanship, an unparalleled level of customer satisfaction, and a balance of work performed in house versus work subcontracted is what makes our business superior to others in our industry.

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. As a part owner and the field supervisor of my family’s business I enjoy every aspect of the business but primarily I like the rewarding feeling at the end of a project when I do a final walk through with a customer and they are satisfied. I like to think that helping people’s dreams come true is a very rewarding experience.

Q. What do you wish customers knew about you or your profession?

A. The construction industry is a rough industry to be in, especially for responsible business owners that operate within the law. With the high volume of illegal laborers, unlicensed contractors, and an influx of unemployed individuals who have decided they are self qualified to become contractors it is increasingly difficult to manage keeping our bids competitive. What we would like our customers to realize is that although our rates may be higher than some of our competitors they, the customer, are guaranteed to receive a high quality of work, within a timely manner, and we as the contractor will be bound by a contract to perform our services as agreed upon.
