Why us? Because time and time again we
have satisfied all of our clients even the ones with
the most discriminating tastes. Choosing a professional
renovator can be quite a headache, it's usually the
hardest part of a renovation. Walder & McSweeney
Contracting Ltd. are members of the Greater Toronto
Home Builders' Association which has very strict guidelines
for it's members. You can rest assured that we will
be around for years to come. Take a look at our project
management services to get a better understanding of
what we can do to make your project become a reality.
Working Budget:
We will establish a working budget by pre-tendering
the project. We will consult at least one subcontractor
for each trade - masonry, carpentry, plumbing, etc.,
to arrive at a preliminary budget.
Budget Review:
We will review the budget with you to see if there
are areas where savings can be made without jeopardizing
the quality of the project or areas where upgrading
is required.
Performance Review:
Once a budget has been established, we will be getting
together with you on a regular basis to review our performance
with reference to the original budget. In many instances,
we find that final prices from sub-trades will be lower
than their original estimates once they are on the job
and familiar with the work they are supposed to do.
We will strictly monitor the budget and are always
on the lookout for ways of saving money without sacrificing
quality.
Construction Schedule:
We will establish a construction schedule and report
to you regularly on our progress.
You will be required to make decisions on certain finishes
and details, particularly manufactured items such as
kitchens. We will of course be glad to give you the
benefit of our experience to help you decide. You will
have sufficient time to make decisions. However, we
will inform you of the dates by which your input is
required so as not to slow down the project.
Cash Flow Schedule:
We will establish a cash flow schedule indicating
the estimated funds required a t various stages of the
work. This will allow you to make your financial arrangements
accordingly.
We will report to you on a regular basis on the funds
spent.
Our experience has shown that savings can be negotiated
in paying suppliers COD and also in paying sub-trades
promptly. Of course we hold back 10% of subcontractor
payments in accordance with the provisions of the Construction
Lien Act.
Contract Preparation:
All contracts are prepared by our firm.
Competitive Pricing:
We frequently obtain more than one price for different
components of the work but we also often recommend one
sub-trade that will deliver above average services at
competitive prices.
Regular Weekly Meetings:
We recommend regular weekly meetings at the site
to review progress and co-ordinate your input with respect
to decisions.
As we've said before we want to create a relationship
with our clients. We want to make sure that you are
as happy about your project and will love the results
for years to come. We
invite you to read some of the praises from our
existing clients. Hear what they have to say about the
service and craftsmanship that they received when they
chose Walder & McSweeney as their contractor.
If you have any questions we would be more than happy
to help, call us
today.
