What can we do for you?

Who are we, what do we do and most importantly...WHAT CAN WE DO FOR YOU?

Our company was designed around that question, What can we do for YOU?

AND

How can we do it better than everyone else?!

It takes knowledge and a lot of experience to answer that. To begin, we have to first know what NOT to do. Knowing what NOT to do, usually comes from bad experiences. Knowing what TO DO, comes from years and years of trial & error, researching, experimenting, learning and hands on experience.

ANYBODY can open up a General contracting company and offer services to the public.

But not everybody can do it well. It takes a lot of resources, knowledge and experience to say "
We're one of the best out there".

So, what can we do for you? To begin with, what's most important to us is that you are well informed. We know that informed clients make better decisions and we're here to guide you. From the first site visit, we offer unbiased advice towards your project. We want to put you in a better position to understand the various aspects of the project you have in mind.

From there, we are happy to break down the costs for you. We separate material and labour, so you can gauge what you want to keep, what you want to add and what you want to take out. This is a preliminary budget and intended as a guide so you can gauge your budget with the scope of work you have in mind.

UNDERSTANDING PRICES

MATERIALS: Materials are costs that we can't control. There are a slue of options when it comes to materials, your selection will dictate the cost to the project. For our part, what we can do is inform you of the price differences amongst various choices. Furthermore, we often receive discounts from suppliers as Contractors (10-50%). We forward those discounts to you and NEVER mark-up materials.

LABOUR: Our labour charges are at par or below the industry standard rates. What we pay our carpenters and in-house skilled trades is standard industry rates. However, most companies mark-up their labour for profit...we don't. What is calculated on top of what we pay our employees is overhead (W.S.I.B, Insurance, tool replacement, vehicle allowance, gas, kms, etc.). No profit, only the charge to bring on-board professionally skilled, knowledgeable and experienced artisans and to ensure that they receive fair compensation for their labour and have all the required insurance/clearance/licensing required by Law. If you find lower labour rates ANYWHERE, then rest assured they are not legitimate, tax paying, licensed/qualified professionals, covered by mandatory W.S.I.B. insurance.

CONTINGENCY: Typically 10%, contingency is an amount added to the sub-total to account for the unforeseen aspects of any construction project. In our "Cost-Plus" method of contracting, this amount is not charged to you if it is not used. 50% of the time, we don't use it and you are not charged.

MANAGEMENT FEES: This is typically 20%, discounted for Spring to 15%. This is the fee that we charge for our services. What you receive in turn is comprehensive management for the entire project. We offer transparency in paper work, and each project has a segregated bank account and records are meticulously maintained. Our job-tracking/management software is unmatched in the industry. You receive continuous updates, 24 hr open line of communication, open access to all vendors/sub contractors, expert management, full financial transparency (except "Fixed Price" contracts), forwarded discounts from vendors all backed by a Fully Licensed, Fully Insured ($5,000,000) Liability, WSIB compliant labour, Renomark certified contractor status, Full member of the Canadian and Greater Toronto Home Builder's Association with industry leading quality workmanship all standing behind a full 2 year warranty on labour/workmanship.
