We provide all the services needed to complete your project on time and on budget, including architect and design integration, construction, floor coverings, furnishings, renovation, real estate, relocation, general equipment and technology. Although other contractors claim to provide "turnkey" services, their claim generally applies only to the construction aspect of a project. At Solidus, we have a complete staff of construction, flooring and furnishing professionals who work closely together throughout a project, simplifying the entire process.

How do you benefit from design/build/furnish?

• Early knowledge of total costs. Solidus gives you a qualified estimate of the total cost of your project during the initial design stage. You can decide whether to proceed with the project without having to pay for comprehensive design drawings, as you would when using the standard general contractor approach. At Solidus, we give you the control, when most contractors keep it for themselves.
   
• Cost savings. Our team of professionals identifies the most cost-effective design features, materials and construction methods to meet your needs. Working together allows our team to avoid potential design flaws and costly change orders. It also requires less documentation and shortens the overall project time frame -- all of which saves you money.
   
• Time savings. Traditional contractors work in linear fashion -- you hire the contractor, you get the permit, you hire the subcontractors. Weeks are lost in the process. In contrast, the Solidus approach streamlines project schedules by integrating our disciplines and making project steps happen concurrently. For example, construction can begin and furnishings can be ordered even before the design drawings are finalized. The result? Fast-track projects at lower overall costs.
   
• Single-firm accountability and improved risk management. Solidus assumes complete responsibility for project quality, as well as for adhering to budgets and time schedules. We're motivated to do the best possible job because there are no other contractors to blame for problems.
   
• Simplified administration. You don't have to hire and supervise several different contractors and vendors -- Solidus serves as your single point of contact.
   
• Improved communications. Having one person to deal with -- the Solidus project manager -- eliminates the confusion and delays that can happen when you're coordinating the activities of multiple contractors. Communication is easy for the members of our team because, as Solidus employees, we work closely together every day.
   
• Better design and construction quality. Continuous communication between the architect and our construction staff assures that all design features are build-able, functional and cost-effective. This virtually eliminates the "errors and omissions" that are commonplace with multiple contractor projects.
