We “value engineer” every project, which simply means that we combine best practices with design knowledge and practical experience to get the most from your construction dollar using design expertise, value engineering, and the highest standards of quality craftsmanship. Charlie Carter -Owner HomeBridge Builders
A construction project is complex,and planning is as important as execution. The construction process involves a series of logical steps leading up to actual construction. This time tested method assures better end results,as well as better communication between builder & client so you can enjoy the process more. -Matt Bien Owner, HomeBridge Builders
Financing is a critical part of every construction project. HomeBridge builders has a working relationship with bankers who will lend based on the appraised future value of your home after completion of your addition or remodel. We would be happy to refer you to a local lender who understands your needs and can help. We understand funding and the myriad of options available to you and can help you understand them.
A time & materials contract involves an open accounting system where you see our actual costs and mark-ups. In most cases we know in advance exactly what your costs will be because our vendors and subcontractors submit fixed bids for their portion of the work. There can be some uncertainty however about what the actual final costs might be. The final price might go up or down based on unforeseen circumstances in the project.
A fixed price contract is just that, FIXED. There is certainty about the price for specific work to be performed. This is a good option for many people. But often a project’s scope will change slightly during construction and under a fixed price contract, that requires a change order to be signed by both HomeBridge Builders & our client. Also a fixed price contract carries a slight premium over a time and materials contract, and the homeowner won’t benefit from any cost savings that we might realize during construction.
We also check that the vendors and sub-contractors who work with us are adequately insured as well. This provides an umbrella of projection for you against liabilities and risks that other uninsured or under insured contractors might not be able to offer.
