General Contracting in Chesterfield, Missouri

Chesterfield homes and this kind of project

Our first visit for a multi-trade project in Chesterfield is spent on scope, budget, existing conditions and which approvals apply, which tells us how large 1970s to 1990s two-stories and newer estate homes to the west were put together.

The housing stock here: large 1970s to 1990s two-stories and ranches in established subdivisions, with newer estate homes to the west.

Most projects in these homes are straightforward to plan, which makes fixed-scope pricing reliable.

What we find inside Chesterfield homes

These houses have good size and dated layouts: a closed kitchen, a sunken family room, a wet bar in a closet. Leveling floors, opening walls and re-planning the kitchen are routine.

A whole-home update in a Chesterfield house from this period is mostly about finishes and layout, since wiring and plumbing are modern. That keeps cost per square foot lower than in older homes, and the result feels like new construction.

What is included

We give Chesterfield clients a weekly update covering what was completed, what comes next, which decisions are needed from you and where the budget stands.

We take on multi-trade project work across Chesterfield, from Chesterfield Valley commercial district to the Wild Horse Creek Road corridor and neighborhoods off Clarkson, Baxter and Olive.

What we watch for

Following storms, out-of-town crews canvass Chesterfield neighborhoods. Check that any contractor has a local address, insurance you can verify and references nearby before signing.

Site logistics matter: Chesterfield has generous, rolling lots with mature trees, so we agree with you where whichever licensed trades the work needs, under our supervision will park, store material and carry out debris.

Permits and approvals in Chesterfield

Chesterfield's planning department together with the St. Louis County permit process is where we file for a multi-trade project in Chesterfield, and the job will see every inspection the scope requires, scheduled and attended by us.

Since this work shows from outside, also plan on subdivision trustees. We prepare that submittal alongside the permit.

Schedule and getting to you

Plan on a schedule set in writing with the proposal of site work for a multi-trade project in Chesterfield, once permits and materials are in hand.

Chesterfield is down I-64 and over the Daniel Boone Bridge, just under half an hour from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.

What moves the price in Chesterfield

We price general contracting in Chesterfield from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.

• How many decisions are settled before the start. Late changes are the most expensive kind.
• Scope and how complex it is.
