FAQs
Why is pre-construction necessary?
Pre-construction ensures that the project is fully planned out before construction begins. It provides cost control, risk management, and schedule accuracy—helping avoid delays and financial surprises.
When should I engage a contractor for pre-construction?
Ideally, during the early concept or design phase. The sooner we are involved, the better we can align the budget, schedule, and design to your vision.
Does pre-construction add to the cost?
While pre-construction is an upfront investment, it often saves significant money by preventing overruns, delays, and costly mistakes later in the process.
Who is involved in pre-construction?
The process includes owners, architects, engineers, consultants, and our ES Builders team working collaboratively to align all project goals.
Can changes be made during pre-construction?
Yes. In fact, this is the best stage to make adjustments because changes are less disruptive and more cost-effective before construction begins.
