About Us
Our proprietary Budget & Tracking System was designed to provide you with a Construction Program customized to meet the individual and specific requirements of your construction project. Our program allows us to provide you with updated cost control & overall scheduling reports for presentation on a monthly basis.
Our Project Management Program is entirely transparent therefore you only pay for the services and materials utilized We provide lump sum costs for our direct services, based exclusively on the scope of work. As such we do not have the common conflict of interest related to percentage mark-ups. This allows us to work in your best interest and in the best interest of the project. You will enjoy the financial benefits of paying contractor’s pricing on all work and materials.
Besides the different members of our team who will service your project, our Owner, David Luksha, will be personally involved as Senior Project Manager. As the designated contact person, David will be constantly available to respond to your needs and the requirements of the construction entire program. From the outset of your project, we will set up a site office, complete with phone, computer and internet equipment, allowing for constant communication with site personnel. This communication extends to the entire project team, designer, consultants, sub-trades, vendors and of course, yourself. It is important to note that David will be personally available for any, and all project related issues.
