Our process

No surprises.
By design.

Most construction headaches come from things nobody said out loud. Our process is built to put everything on the table early, while it is still cheap to change.

  1. 01

    First call

    Call the yard or send project details. We ask what you are building, where, and when you need it. If it is not something we do, we will say so and point you somewhere useful.

  2. 02

    Site visit

    We walk the site with you, checking grades, access, soil, water and anything buried. For commercial work, we review the drawings and specifications.

  3. 03

    Written proposal

    You get a written scope and price that spells out what is included, what is not, and what could change it. No vague allowances standing in for the real number.

  4. 04

    Scheduling

    We give you a realistic start window and keep you posted as weather and the schedule move. Concrete is weather-dependent, so we will call before a pour date shifts.

  5. 05

    The build

    Utilities located, site prepared, base built and checked, forms and steel inspected before the trucks are called. You can see the work, and you can reach us while it happens.

  6. 06

    Walk-through & care

    We walk the finished work with you, leave the site clean, and give you care instructions, like when to drive on it and how to treat it the first winter.

Homeowners

What helps us quote quickly

  • The address and a rough idea of size (“two-car drive, about 60 feet long”)
  • A few phone photos of the area as it is today
  • What will use it: cars, a camper, equipment, foot traffic
  • Any timing you are working around
  • Anything you know is buried: propane, sprinklers, a line to the garage

Builders, owners & GCs

For commercial bids

  • Drawings and specifications (civil, structural and architectural as applicable)
  • Bid date and expected construction window
  • Geotechnical report, if one exists
  • Which scopes you want priced: site, foundations, flatwork, building
  • A contact for RFIs and site access
