Services
Project Management
We manage construction projects from design through occupancy with transparent cost-plus billing. Clients receive all time cards, material invoices, and subcontractor receipts while paying a flat management fee. This approach provides complete budget control and documentation through detailed cost codes and regular financial reports.
ICF Foundations
Our insulated concrete form (ICF) foundation system creates energy-efficient, durable building bases. This method combines structural strength with thermal efficiency while reducing long-term energy costs. The process includes precise form installation, concrete pouring, and finishing to meet exact project specifications.
Septic Installation
As a licensed septic installer, we design and install compliant wastewater systems for residential properties. Our services include site assessment, system design, and complete installation following New Hampshire regulations. We also coordinate necessary permits and inspections to ensure code compliance.
Carpentry Services
We provide structural framing and trim carpentry services for residential and commercial buildings. Our expertise includes custom woodwork, finish carpentry, and structural components. All work meets building codes and is performed by experienced craftsmen using quality materials for lasting results.
Excavation
Our excavation services prepare sites for construction through precise grading and earth removal. We handle land clearing, foundation excavation, and site preparation using modern equipment. The process includes soil assessment, debris removal, and creating proper drainage foundations for building projects.
