Does Murray Lampert Construction charge for estimates?
If the estimate is for a "homeowner" most of the time there is no charge. In rare cases, after inspecting the property, if there are any structural concerns requiring an engineer's opinion, a fee will be quoted prior to there being any obligation. Contact us to request an estimate today.
Who handles the design and architectural work?
At Murray Lampert Construction, we have our own in-house design department. All plans are generated by our state of the art computer CAD software and we secure the necessary building permits as part of your home renovation and/or remodel project.
How is my project supervised?
Murray Lampert Construction has an in-house production department with a staff of project managers. Your personal Project Manger is responsible for scheduling the trades and materials, meeting the building inspectors, quality control and completing the final punch list.
Does someone need to be home during the day when we are under construction?
No. We install a lock box on site so our craftsman can come and go as necessary.
Do you require a down payment?
We do not take any down payments. Rather, a progress payment schedule is part of our contract. Payments are made in stages as your remodel or renovation project reaches critical milestones.
How long will it take to complete my remodel or renovation project?
Every job is unique, so timing is based on the scope of work. As a general rule, second stories take a minimum of 120 working days, room additions 80 - 100 working days, kitchens 50 - 75 working days, and total home renovations 125 - 150 working days. The time frame in which your project will be completed is in writing on our contract, and is based on when commencement begins after the building permit is secured.
What is your warranty?
We provide an exclusive 5 year written warranty on workmanship and materials. Any fixtures or products provided or installed by Murray Lampert Construction or the homeowner carry their own manufacturers warranty and are not covered under the 5 year guarantee.
