[av_toggle title=’Will you take care of the building permits?’ tags=” custom_id=’building-permits’ av_uid=’av-8jdma’]

[av_toggle title=’How many projects are you currently working on?’ tags=” custom_id=’ongoing-projects’]

Our priority at AXCO Construction & Land Management is to maintain the schedule provided with our contract. Our team’s focus is ensuring the completion of your project as quickly and efficiently as possible, which is a crucial component of client satisfaction.

[av_toggle title=’Who will purchase the materials?’ tags=” custom_id=’supply-materials’ av_uid=’av-52pi2′]
Before we draft our contract, we’ll discuss and agree upon the supply of materials. Most times, we can receive materials at a discount that we pass on to our clients. The coordination and delivery of materials are also essential to maintaining the project schedule.

[av_toggle title=’What happens if you find something unexpected?’ tags=” custom_id=’unexpected-complications’]
It is prevalent for unknown issues to arise in repair and renovation projects. Floors and walls can mask any number of issues. It wouldn’t be fair to attempt to include unseen complications in an initial bid.

AXCO Construction & Land Management will always work closely with our clients to ensure they understand each project’s potential risks and have a contingency should issues arise. Before proceeding with work, we’ll communicate with you if there are financial or schedule changes to a contract.
