COORDINATION

Our job is to keep all team members working together to a common end. During the course of construction we will be…

  • Meeting regularly with the general contractor and architect to review progress and any outstanding issues
  • Reviewing and tracking preliminary lien notices and lien releases
  • Reviewing insurance certificates for compliance
  • Providing a monthly status report on the project
