FAQ

  • We take a holistic approach to every project — managing not just construction, but also design review, due diligence, permitting, and planning. As a family-owned firm, we combine the professionalism of a larger company with the flexibility and personal investment of a smaller team. Every project receives hands-on attention, clear communication, and the same commitment to quality, efficiency, and long-term value.

  • Working with us means your project benefits from the expertise of a developer and the organization of a seasoned project manager. We coordinate every stage — from early design decisions through construction — ensuring your vision aligns with practical, budget-conscious planning. Our proactive management minimizes costly changes, avoids delays, and ensures a seamless process from concept to completion.

  • We approach every project with a developer’s mindset, focusing on efficiency, cost control, and smart decision-making from day one. By managing due diligence, permitting, and design early, we help you avoid expensive revisions later. We also leverage our network of vetted contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers to secure competitive pricing and consistent quality — meaning you save more working with us than managing the process independently.

  • No — we’re construction managers. Instead of self-performing the work, we hire and oversee general contractors and subcontractors using our trusted network. This structure gives clients access to competitive, developer-level pricing and a team of proven professionals, while we handle oversight, scheduling, and quality control to ensure the best results.

  • Yes. We play an active role in the early stages of design and permitting to set your project up for success. During design review, we collaborate with you and your design team to refine layouts, materials, and budgets. We also handle due diligence and permitting, working directly with local building departments, inspectors, and zoning boards to secure approvals and streamline the process.

  • We manage all phases of residential construction — from targeted renovations and kitchen or bath remodels to large-scale renovations and ground-up new builds. Our work spans Massachusetts and Rhode Island, backed by a strong understanding of local codes, historical commissions, and market standards.

  • We tailor our approach to fit your preferred level of involvement. Some clients like to stay closely engaged through each phase, while others rely on us to handle everything from initial design coordination to final walkthroughs. Either way, our process is transparent, collaborative, and built on clear communication from start to finish.

  • Every project is different, and our approach is tailored to fit its specific needs. Costs depend on the scope, size, and complexity of the work — but we’re always upfront and transparent about fees. Unlike contractors or designers who make margins on materials and labor, we operate on a fixed, pre-negotiated consultation fee. This model ensures our interests are fully aligned with yours: we pass on cost savings directly to you, maintaining transparency and accountability from start to finish.
