“Whenever you’re doing construction it’s stress on the neighborhood, regardless of who’s doing it, but BOWA went above and beyond in reaching out to the neighbors. Instead of me being the buffer between the neighbors and the construction company, BOWA became the buffer between me and the neighbors, which was nice. I had compliments from neighbors after the fact.”

Input by Construction Experts: The team calls on our construction professionals and other experts to ensure the optimal solution. The layout, material selections, budget, planning and quality of the finished product all benefit from the real-world experience of the folks who are responsible for getting the project in the ground. This collaborative approach also helps to ensure a smoother construction process.
Guaranteed Budget Ranges: For most of our design build projects, we’re able to provide a Guaranteed Budget Range even before we begin design.
