What Makes a Project "Custom"?

Sometimes you need work that doesn't fit standard service categories—or you need multiple services coordinated together for a complete transformation.

Custom projects might involve unique materials, challenging site conditions, historic considerations, or simply combining several services into one cohesive renovation. That's where our general contracting experience shines.

Examples of Custom Projects:
  • Complete exterior makeovers (roof + siding + windows + gutters)
  • Historic home restoration matching original materials
  • Storm damage requiring multiple trades
  • Unusual building shapes or materials
  • Commercial-to-residential conversions

Custom Project FAQs

Questions about custom and complex projects.

Ask a Question

If your project involves multiple services that need coordination, unusual materials or methods, historic preservation requirements, or challenges other contractors have declined—it's likely a custom project. When in doubt, just describe what you need and we'll advise the best approach.

Not necessarily. Multi-service projects often save money compared to hiring separate contractors because we coordinate efficiently and can offer bundle pricing. Complex work may cost more due to specialized materials or techniques, but we're transparent about costs upfront.

Absolutely. We regularly collaborate with architects, designers, and other professionals. We can provide input on material selection and constructability, or simply execute plans exactly as specified. Clear communication ensures everyone's vision is realized.

Timeline depends entirely on scope. A complete exterior renovation might take 2-4 weeks. Historic restoration with custom materials could take longer due to sourcing. We provide realistic timelines during the proposal phase and keep you updated throughout.

Yes. As a licensed general contractor, we handle all necessary permits and inspections. For projects in historic districts, we navigate the approval process with preservation commissions. Permit costs are included in our proposals—no surprises.
