Harvester homes and this kind of project
Our first visit for a multi-trade project in Harvester is spent on scope, budget, existing conditions and which approvals apply, which tells us how 1970s to 1990s ranches and two-stories were put together.
The housing stock here: 1970s to 1990s ranches and two-stories in established subdivisions, with some newer infill.
Most projects in these homes are straightforward to plan, which makes fixed-scope pricing reliable.
What we find inside Harvester homes
Closed kitchens with soffits, fluorescent box lighting and peninsula layouts are common. Removing soffits and opening a wall changes these homes a great deal.
A whole-home update in a Harvester 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 Harvester 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 Harvester, from neighborhoods along Harvester Road and Caulks Hill Road to the Highway 94 and Jungermann Road area.
What we watch for
Following storms, out-of-town crews canvass Harvester neighborhoods. Check that any contractor has a local address, insurance you can verify and references nearby before signing.
Working on leafy, established subdivision lots, as we do in Harvester, we plan access for whichever licensed trades the work needs, under our supervision before the first delivery arrives.
Permits and approvals in Harvester
For a multi-trade project at a Harvester address, the paperwork goes to St. Charles County, because Harvester is unincorporated. Expect every inspection the scope requires, scheduled and attended by us.
Since this work shows from outside, also plan on subdivision trustees in some neighborhoods. 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 Harvester, once permits and materials are in hand.
Harvester is a little under half an hour by I-70 or Highway 364 from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.
What our general contracting looks like

General Contracting in Harvester: common questions
How long does a multi-trade project take in Harvester?
Varies with the project. In Harvester, permit review by St. Charles County, because Harvester is unincorporated and material lead times affect the start date more than our calendar does.
Do I need approval beyond a permit for a multi-trade project in Harvester?
Possibly. In Harvester you may be dealing with subdivision trustees in some neighborhoods. City or county approval and private approval are separate, and we prepare both submittals and wait for written approval before ordering materials.
Are general contractors licensed in Missouri?
Missouri does not issue a statewide general contractor license. Licensing and registration are local, and trades such as electrical and plumbing are licensed at the county or city level. We register where required and use licensed trade contractors.
