General construction

The multi-trade jobs a building actually needs.

Repair and restoration, renovations, tenant improvements and additions: the work that touches framing, waterproofing, finishes and more in one project. We run it as one contract under a class B general building license, with licensed specialty contractors under our contract where a trade license is required, so you hold one accountable name instead of five phone numbers.

Why one contract

Coordination is the product

On a multi-trade job the expensive failures live between the trades: the drywall closed before the inspection, the finish laid before the leak was found, the schedule where every sub is waiting on another. A general building contractor's actual product is sequence: the right trade, at the right time, documented, and one name accountable for the whole of it.

One contract
scope, schedule and accountability in one place, with specialty trades carried under our contract where a trade license is required
Sequenced
inspections, trades and tenants planned in order, so nothing gets closed up before it gets signed off
Documented
photos, permits and closeout records, so what was found and what was fixed is on paper, not in memory
The scoping engine

Five answers. An honest picture of what drives your project.

No web page can price construction, and we will not pretend otherwise. What we can do instantly: show you which of your answers actually move the scope, then have a licensed general building contractor build the real number from your property. If you are holding paperwork about the building, whatever it is, send it along and we read it.

What drives your price

    What we take on

    Multi-trade work, one accountable contract

    Repair & restoration

    Damage that touches structure, waterproofing and finishes together, scoped as one job with the cause corrected alongside the symptom.

    Renovation & tenant improvement

    Unit turns, common-area upgrades and TI work, run on the lease clock with the landlord's rules built into the schedule.

    Additions

    New structure tied into old: foundations, framing connections and matched systems, engineered and permitted before the first cut.

    How it works

    From a scope conversation to a signed-off building

    The same disciplined path our owner and property-manager clients rely on.

    1

    Project reviewed

    We walk the property, read whatever paperwork you hold, and name what the job actually involves.

    2

    Scope & budget

    Line-item scope with the change-order triggers stated before the contract.

    3

    Plans & permits

    We coordinate with licensed architects, engineers, and permitting authorities where required.

    4

    Build & closeout

    Trades sequenced, inspections passed, and the records handed over at the end.

    Why owners hire us

    The contractor who owns the seams between the trades

    Anyone can list trades. The job is the seams: the inspection that has to pass before the wall closes, the tenant who has to be notified before the water goes off, the finish that cannot go down until the leak above it is fixed. That sequencing is what you are actually hiring a general building contractor for, and it is what our scopes are written around.

    What you get

    • One contract and one accountable name for multi-trade work
    • Licensed specialty contractors under our contract where a trade license is required
    • Change-order triggers stated before the contract
    • Occupied-building sequencing with tenant notice planned
    • Photo documentation and closeout records

    Questions owners ask

    General construction, in plain English

    Can you handle the whole scope, or do I still need to find trades?
    The whole scope is the point. A class B general building license is the license for multi-trade work, and where a piece of the job requires a specialty trade license, it is carried by licensed specialty contractors under our contract. You hold one contract and one accountable name; finding and sequencing the trades is our job, not yours.
    Can my handyman do this instead?
    Sometimes, honestly, yes. Small jobs below the state's licensing threshold are legal handyman territory, and a single-trade item may be a specialty contractor's lane rather than ours. Permit-required work must be performed by a contractor licensed for that work, and a multi-trade scope is what a general building contractor exists to run. If your job is genuinely a one-trade call, we will say so.
    The building has paperwork on it. Can you work from that?
    Yes, send it over, whatever it is: an inspection report, a notice, a bid you are not sure about. We read what it actually requires and scope to that, rather than to a guess. If it is a balcony inspection report, start from our balcony repair page, which walks that path specifically.
    What does it cost?
    It depends on what the project touches, and nobody can price that from a web page. What moves the number: how many trades are involved, what condition the building hides behind the finishes, occupied-building sequencing, and permits and any required engineering. The scope we write prices your project against those, at no obligation.
    Can tenants stay during the work?
    Usually, with planning. Occupied-building work is sequenced by area, with notice, protected access and utility windows planned before work starts. It is slower than an empty building and we say so in the schedule, rather than promising a vacant-building timeline on an occupied one.
