When it comes to planning construction budgets, knowing what your options are and what questions to ask can make a huge difference. With over 30 years of experience under our belt, Solidus can bring each project expense into sharp focus, ensuring our clients make the most of every dollar spent.
A thorough construction budget must encompass more than just the broad strokes of a project. There are fine details that must also be accounted for and facilitated. Our seasoned estimators take time to answer essential questions that are often overlooked during budget planning. What goes into preparing a construction site for winter conditions and what are the costs associated with this work? How much of our budget will need to be spent on safety equipment and temporary utilities? Can our branch remain open with minimal disruption to our daily operations and customer experience? These are legitimate concerns that can impact a tight budget, and if you don’t have a frame of reference informed by years of application and experience, you might not plan accordingly.
Our strong reputation in the highly competitive design-build industry is anchored by the lasting partnerships we’ve built with professionals across every trade and practice relevant to commercial construction. From architectural design, including civil, structural, and mechanical engineering services, to construction execution, brand implementation, and furniture installation, Solidus can speak to the risks, expenses, and time constraints associated with all these disciplines and more. With a current and comprehensive data mine at our fingertips, we offer expertise that can be very difficult to find and almost impossible to attain without proper direction or familiarity. While it may take private parties weeks or even months to gather information from each of these entities, our team can have all the answers you need in a matter of days, and in some cases, hours.
