General Contracting in Ellisville, Missouri

When a Ellisville project involves more than one trade, someone has to be in charge. As general contractor we plan, permit, schedule and supervise all of it, and we are the single party accountable for the outcome.

Ellisville homes and this kind of project

Our first visit for a multi-trade project in Ellisville is spent on scope, budget, existing conditions and which approvals apply, which tells us how ranches and two-stories from the 1960s through the 1980s were put together.

The housing stock here: 1960s to 1980s ranches and two-stories with some newer construction.

Testing suspect materials and upgrading services are routine parts of managing work in these homes.

What we find inside Ellisville homes

Closed floor plans and original bathrooms are usual. Removing a kitchen wall typically calls for an engineered beam.

Houses of this age in Ellisville frequently have 100-amp electrical service, aging drain lines and original ductwork. A whole-home renovation lets us renew all of it at once while opening the floor plan.

What is included

For Ellisville projects our general contracting service covers budgeting, design coordination, engineering, permit applications, subcontractor hiring and insurance verification, scheduling, daily supervision, inspections, change-order management, lien waivers and warranty.

We take on multi-trade project work across Ellisville, from the Bluebird Park area to neighborhoods near Clarkson and Manchester roads.

What we watch for

Permit requirements vary between Ellisville and the neighboring jurisdictions, and contractor registration rules vary too. We confirm requirements for your exact address before work is scheduled.

Ellisville properties tend to be shaded, established lots, and that affects how we stage materials, where whichever licensed trades the work needs, under our supervision park and how debris leaves the site.

Permits and approvals in Ellisville

The City of Ellisville is where we file for a multi-trade project in Ellisville, and the job will see every inspection the scope requires, scheduled and attended by us.

Exterior work in Ellisville can also involve older subdivision trustees, and we put that package together for you.

Schedule and getting to you

On site, a multi-trade project in Ellisville generally runs a schedule set in writing with the proposal.

Ellisville sits toward the edge of our range: I-64 to Clarkson Road and south, under forty minutes. We group trade visits and deliveries carefully for projects at that distance, and we take them on when the scope justifies a dedicated crew.

What our general contracting looks like

Photographs from jobs we have built. We do not label photographs by town, so these may or may not be near Ellisville; they are here so you can judge the standard of finish before we meet.

General Contracting in Ellisville: common questions

How long does a multi-trade project take in Ellisville?

Varies with the project. For Ellisville we group trade visits to keep that schedule tight despite the drive.

Do I need approval beyond a permit for a multi-trade project in Ellisville?

Possibly. In Ellisville you may be dealing with older subdivision trustees. City or county approval and private approval are separate, and we prepare both submittals and wait for written approval before ordering materials.

Can I act as my own general contractor?

You can. You take on scheduling, quality control, inspections and the risk. For a single-trade job it is reasonable. For a kitchen or addition, most people who try it tell us they would not do so again.
