No Surprises, No Hidden Fees.
Project Timelines Depend On Project Size And Complexity. A Typical 3-4 Bedroom Residential Building Takes 6-9 Months. Larger Commercial Or Industrial Projects Range From 12-18 Months. We Provide A Detailed Construction Schedule During Planning That Breaks Down Each Phase: Foundation (4-6 Weeks), Block Work (6-8 Weeks), Roofing (3-4 Weeks), Finishing (8-12 Weeks).

We Understand Financial Challenges Happen. If You Need To Pause Construction, We Secure The Site And Provide Recommendations For Protecting Completed Work From Weather Damage. We Can Also Restructure Payment Schedules Or Suggest Phased Completion—Finishing Essential Areas First (Like Making The Building Habitable) While Postponing Non-Critical Elements (Like Landscaping Or Perimeter Fencing). Open Communication Helps Us Find Solutions That Work Within Your Budget.
Yes, But Changes After Construction Begins May Affect Your Timeline And Budget. We Handle All Changes Through A Formal "Change Order" Process. When You Request A Change, We Assess The Impact On Cost And Schedule, Provide You With A Written Change Order Detailing The Adjustments, And Only Proceed After You Approve And Sign. This Protects Both Parties And Prevents Misunderstandings.
