Most cost overruns are decided before the first crew arrives. Our pre-construction work solves the site, the soil, the civil design and the feasibility before building, so the budget and the schedule start from real information.
Understand the property before designing a building around assumptions. We evaluate boundaries, topography, easements, access, utilities and drainage and coordinate the survey needed to document actual site conditions. This information becomes the foundation for design, permitting and early construction decisions. Identifying constraints before drawings advance helps avoid redesign later and gives the project team real site information from the beginning, when changes are easier and considerably less expensive to address.
Know what is below the building before foundation work begins. We coordinate geotechnical investigation and soil testing to establish the conditions the structural design needs to address. In Florida, high water tables and sandy or organic soils can materially affect foundations and site work. Identifying these conditions early allows the appropriate foundation strategy to be developed before construction pricing is finalized, helping reduce expensive surprises after excavation begins and giving the project a stronger technical foundation.
Make sure the building actually works on the property around it. We coordinate civil design for grading, stormwater, parking, driveways and utility connections, integrating site requirements with the overall project. These systems influence permitting, construction cost and how the property functions long after completion. Addressing them during pre-construction helps identify constraints before they become field problems and creates a coordinated site plan that can move through review and into construction with fewer surprises.
Find out what you can build before investing heavily in what you want to build. We evaluate zoning, permitted use and applicable city or county requirements along with major site and project constraints. From there, we develop a preliminary budget and schedule based on the information available. The objective is to give you real information for an early go-or-no-go decision, identifying major risks before significant money is committed to design, permitting and construction.
