HELPING OUR CLIENTS & COMMUNITIES SUCCEED
When it pertains to construction related projects such as painting, paving, roofing, etc. ...consider two critical factors:
· Documentation ...Spoken words are not good enough...If it isn't in writing, you won't get it.
· Scope clarity w/ oversight ...You get what you inspect, not what you expect.

(b) eliminate lost time, and
(c) prevent extra cost (sometimes including litigation expenses)
