Philosophy

Our construction philosophy is built on the foundation of strong relationships, starting with the client/architect team and extending out to our subcontractor base and suppliers. We are a small, boutique builder with the experience and administrative control procedures of a much larger firm. We stay small because of the belief that our clients and their projects deserve principal level attention on a daily basis. The way we create and sustain strong relationships is through a commitment to a building process that is predicated on honest and transparent communication. This leads to a level of trust that is able to weather the day to day challenges presented by the most complex projects. This approach makes it is easy for us to stand behind our work and know with confidence that we are providing the best experience we possibly can to our clients.

Process

Whether you have already chosen an architect and/or designer or would like Casey Custom Builders to recommend one, we’re ready to assist you from pre-construction consultation to project completion.  From our first involvement in the project we begin an iterative budgeting process that starts at the conceptual level stemming from historical data and current cost analysis, and evolves through a structured bidding process at the subcontractor and vendor level.  The project budget is then monitored and revised on an ongoing basis to ensure real time budget awareness. Job specific schedules are created and shared with owners online through BuilderTrend software allowing us to communicate progress on a daily basis in conjunction with daily logs and photos, keeping lines of communication open and free flowing.  A large part of our value is in our team of trade partners and subcontractors. Casey Custom Builders has developed a committed and qualified subcontractor/supplier base that extends from the Truckee/Tahoe area, down to Reno and even out to greater Northern California.  We expect the highest quality in all aspects of each project and we only accept the best workmanship the region has to offer.
