A) The Team
We employ a team concept to the management of your construction project. One of our construction principals, Chris Brassfield or Dale McBreairty, will be directly responsible for your job. They will supervise and coordinate all the work at your site supported by an assistant project manager. In addition, Bernie Fulk will provide oversight, quality control checks, and weekly client updates on the project. The rest of the team is comprised of our capable subcontractors and suppliers with whom we have long-term relationships. They are great craftsmen who stand behind their work, honor the bids that they give us, and fulfill their commitments in a timely manner.

B) The Schedule
In addition to the uncertainty surrounding the cost of a custom home project the second biggest worry is the length of time to complete construction. The standard language in our contract states that we expect to complete a home 12 months after the foundation is finished. While scheduling home construction jobs has become second nature to us over the years we have chosen to implement a formal Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT). This is a model developed in the 1950’s for the U.S. Navy’s Polaris missile program and helps chart a critical path for project completion. We review every project on a periodic basis to reinforce where we are in the schedule and to ensure we have not overlooked any vital step that would cause a delay.

C) Client Liaison
One of our top priorities is client liaison. We want to keep clients in the loop about progress on their project, answer their questions in a timely manner, get timely design decisions from them when specific questions arise, and review progress bills to their satisfaction. To this end we have established a formal client liaison function and dedicated a significant block of staff time to it. In addition to phone calls you will receive weekly e-mail updates, with photographs where appropriate. We will also be happy to meet you at your job site at your convenience and will make every effort to respond to all your inquiries on a same day basis.

One example of the high quality and high value home that can be achieved through the Brassfield McBreairty & Fulk design - build concept is a home at 26 LeMoyne Lane in the Cassique neighborhood of the Kiawah Island Club. This house is in the English country style to fit the architectural requirements of Cassique... which is built around Tom Watson’s links style golf course. It provides an example of the quality features included in one of our custom homes that can be built in the style of your choice. Details of this project are available for review.
