I Want Or Need To Construct A Project, Where Do We Start?

You already have.  By contacting Dodson & Chatman Construction you have already started the process.  We will help guide you through the process and handle many of the tasks required to start your new project.  Our pre construction services include project feasibility, design concept, preparation of plans and specifications, zoning and building code conformance, verification of utilities, site planning, and many other services to take your project from an idea to a completed project that will meet or exceed your needs.

How Much Will It Cost?

If you already have plans and specifications for your project, or have had them prepared by an architectural firm, our estimating department will prepare an estimate for your project in a professional and timely manner.  We may also recommend valuable engineering ideas that could possibly allow you to reach your project goals with a savings to the total project cost.  If your project is a design build project with which you have allowed us to assist in the planning and design, we will also provide preliminary pricing as we proceed through the design process to make sure project goals pertaining to cost are met, as well as producing the final contract cost prior to project start.

Who Handles My Project?

From the first call to our company your project is handled by one of our team of professionals.  Initially you will be in contact with a member of our sales and estimating staff who will take your project through the estimating, or design and estimating stage.  After your project is through the contract stage, the project management team will then begin construction of your project. During this phase, you will receive updates on your project and remain in contact with one of our project managers as well as having contact with the job site superintendent, on a daily basis if needed, who will be assigned to your specific project.  At any given time during the course of your project there are always several members of our team familiar with your project to answer any of your questions or handle your concerns.

How Long Will My Project Take?

Of course, the time your project will require to complete will vary, according to type and size.  However, from your first contact until the completion, your project will receive timely attention through each phase.  As well as meeting all the requirements you have for your new project, completing it on or ahead of schedule is as important as any other project requirement.   Our goal is to expedite your project to allow you to benefit from it as soon as possible, as well as increase efficiency for the entire construction team.  Our construction schedules are set up to meet or exceed this goal.
