We welcome the opportunity to further talk about how we could be of service to your company.
Continuity of Construction
As a general contractor engaged early in the process, we understand that the information we provide during the design phase becomes the foundation for a successful project. Capital Improvements takes great pride in ensuring that the budgets we help create are accurate and buildable.
We achieve continuity of construction through accurately understanding your needs, and the use of project control tools and ideas generated throughout the construction process. We focus on schedule, budget, field management and project management to ensure the project is completed on-time and on-budget.
Capital Improvements provides numerous pre-construction services that include conceptual estimating, value design, green and energy-efficient consultation, site plan review, scheduling, and final budget estimating
Value Design
A primary focus is on Value Design, a collaborative effort between owner, architect, and contractor to maximize value of design within budget constraints. The process is a pure cost-benefit analysis based on series of qualitative and quantitative options rather than an “options pricing exercise” typical of value engineering. In options pricing you will always get less than you want at more than you want to spend.
Built to Last – Sustainability
At Capital Improvements we strive to understand the interrelationships different building components and systems have on the whole building. This is more than building green or using the most environmental friendly products, but helping to create the most value from construction through design collaboration, product availability, cost and understanding owner needs.
Project Management
All field activities are managed by experienced, full-time superintendents and assistants as work progress requires. This staffing ensures that daily operations, safety, and communication are maintained for a smooth construction process. Ultimately it is the project manager that is responsible for ensuring the timely delivery of the completed project on budget. The project manager understands that managing the client’s money responsibly is key to the success of the project.
Capital Improvements has the expertise and experience to complete your project in a timely manner and within budget. Whether your property is in need of cosmetic repairs or a complete remodel, Capital Improvements has an experienced team that will exceed your expectations. Our company has grown through the years by providing exceptional work on a conservative budget.
