How We Do It

Like your project, our approach is unique

Burton Builders believes that information is knowledge so from day one, we work openly and honestly with you to conceptualize your design, establish your budget, and complete your project.

Listening

The beginning of any project should begin with listening. We understand the importance of this critical first step. Listening to your needs, ideas and dreams will be the beginning of bringing your visions to life.

Design

Since our first renovation job in 1988 we have been designing projects that reflect the lifestyle of our clients.

We will assist you in visualizing your dreams and be there to think through all of the details such as are you maximizing natural light, does your kitchen design provide optimal use of space and traffic flow.

All of the details large and small make your home your own and we will assist you in making your home uniquely yours.

Budget

“Open Book” estimating is our hallmark.

We provide our clients with a copy of our completed estimate, disclosing general conditions, unit costs and all of our overhead and profit rates. We began this approach in 1996 with the belief that by disclosing the true costs of your project to you the client you would be better educated when decisions need to be made. Although some may believe that it is naive of us to provide our clients with our “Open Book” our experience has proven that we have gained the respect and trust of our clients from day one partially as a result of our “Open Book” philosophy.

“Open Book” does not mean open ended! Our contracts provide a firm price and the only changes will be through change orders requested by the client or by unforeseen conditions.

Our business is licensed by the State of Delaware and we carry all required insurance policies.

Completion

Having a schedule is the most important tool for completing a successful project. Our schedule will provide you and our craftsmen with a tool that facilitates an orderly and timely finish of your project.

Our goal at the end of your project is to have provided you with a home reflecting a design, vision, lifestyle and a dream all your own.

Communication/Timeliness

We believe in the importance of communication.

You can rely on a quick response whether you are awaiting a bid, have sent an email, requested photo updates of your project or have left a voicemail. Your questions and comments are always welcomed and valued.
Burton Builders will deliver not only quality construction but also timeliness.
