how we work
At
Jeff King & Company, Inc., every project is a process of collaboration.
We approach the process as one of building not only your home but
also a long-term relationship with you.
Design Phase
Initial
Meeting
Our
process begins with meeting you to gain an understanding of your vision for your home and to explore
the scope of work of your project.
We
provide you with a referral to an architect or other design professional if needed
and desired.
We
provide you with a list of past clients and encourage you to contact
them.
Preliminary
Estimate
When
Preliminary Plans and Specifications are available, we prepare a Preliminary Estimate of your project’s cost.
Price
is a very important consideration, but the value we bring to your
project is not defined solely by the cost of the work. This is reflected
by our policy of offering negotiated bids rather than competitive
bids.
Preconstruction
Agreement
Once
you have accepted our Preliminary Estimate we are ready to sign a Preconstruction
Agreement which:
Initiates
our participation in design meetings to provide input regarding
budget considerations, construction methods and materials,
and value engineering services.
Secures
your project’s place in our schedule.
Culminates
in Final Estimate and Construction Contract based on
complete Plans and Specifications for your project.
Construction Phase
Project
Management
From
founder Jeff King through every member of the field crew, Jeff King
and Company is composed of highly experienced professionals
dedicated to efficiency, fine details, and superior craftsmanship.
Your
project will be assigned a Project Manager who will be responsible
for managing your project and communicating with
you throughout the construction process.
Your
project will have a fully dedicated on-site Lead Carpenter, responsible
for day-to-day operations.
Your
Project Manager and Lead Carpenter will meet with you and
your architect weekly on site to ensure a smooth course of
construction.
Subcontractor
Relationships
Our
extensive experience as building contractors gives us the knowledge
and ability to find, qualify, and supervise the finest local
craftsmen.
We
provide our Subcontractors with clear contractual agreements and
daily on-site coordination and supervision to ensure the quality
and efficiency of their performance.
Office
and Company Management
The
excellent work of our field staff and our Subcontractors is supported
by clear standard operating procedures company-wide, effective
accounting procedures, and the application of sound business
practices at every level of company management.
Post-Construction Phase
Once
your project is completed we will provide you with a manual containing
all manufacturer’s warranties and maintenance and care
guidelines for all new installations.
Well
after your project is completed, Jeff King & Company will be there
for you to ensure that all systems and installations are functioning
well.
