Houston Design Build: General Construction Services

A project and construction manager is your one point of contact for construction. We offer detailed project management and construction oversight services to help ensure your project meets deadlines, stays within budget, and also suits your specifications.

Our project management professionals are on-site to help keep everyone on the same page. They are also responsible for communicating with you so you’re never in the dark about your project. You can think of construction managers from Burleson Construction as your boots on the ground for protecting your interests and ensuring your project goes smoothly.

Keeping everyone on schedule requires strategic coordination and scheduling. When you hire our design build construction team for your project, we handle everything from coordinating with different subcontractors and making sure everything gets completed on time.

In many cases, there are several items that must be completed before the project can progress. For instance, plumbing typically must go in before electrical systems. Therefore, it’s critical to have plumbing subcontractors on-site and get their work completed well before it’s time for the electrical system to go in. We handle these details for you, so you have peace of mind there’s no unnecessary downtime or costs. We handle all the communication and scheduling for subcontractors so your project goes smoothly.

A clean jobsite is a safe job site. Therefore, we take care of site cleanup and protection during construction. Cleaning up the construction site throughout your project helps reduce risks like safety hazards. In addition, it’s important to take steps to protect your site from trespassing, vandalism, and weather.

To ensure your site and project is adequately protected against these risks, we take part in regular cleaning and protection efforts so you can rest easy. Our team handles all this for you so you never need to worry about unsafe conditions or whether the rain is ruining your building materials.

With the right pre-construction services, schedules are detailed and well thought out. However, a schedule is just a piece of paper unless it’s properly enforced. Our commercial construction professionals help manage schedules to keep your project on time. If issues arise, we update schedules to keep delays to a minimum and ensure everyone on site has adequate time to provide the high quality services you deserve. Our specialists are adept at altering construction schedules as need be to reduce and mitigate downtime even for unforeseen circumstances. You can trust us to get the job done as efficiently as possible.

The American Institute of Architects (AIA) has developed many industry standard documents for construction and build out projects that are practical, easy to interpret, and provide the terms for each contractor involved with your project. AIA documents are used for most construction projects to define contract relationships, billing, and so much more so you know exactly what to expect from your project.

Our team helps provide AIA documentation for each contractor and subcontractor. These legal documents help clarify everyone’s role for your project to help protect your interests. We gather, organize, and even customize these documents on your behalf to help reduce the risk of legal issues for your construction project.

Lien waivers are standard legal documents that contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers, and others involved in your project sign after they receive payment. Once paid, the business waives future rights to put a lien on your property due to non-payment.

As you can see, it’s crucial to not only acquire these lien waivers from parties involved with your construction project, but also to keep them organized and on-hand in case legal issues arise. As an expert design build firm, we help gather lien waiver documentation so you can protect yourself from disputes.

Practically everyone can agree that a safe job site is important. Construction safety helps protect both workers and building owners. Adequate safety training can make the difference between a safe and efficient project or a project that involves injuries, delays, and extra costs. To combat unsafe conditions, our team holds weekly safety meetings to address common safety topics as well as project-specific safety concerns.

We use these “toolbox talks” to ensure everyone on site knows exactly how to keep themselves, other workers, equipment, property, and materials safe from harm. Our team’s weekly safety meetings can help improve safety on your construction site and keep everyone on the same page.
