Every project is significant, regardless of size. We're fully equipped to manage various projects, offering personalized solutions that best fit your requirements. Our expertise in carpentry and electrical work allows us to handle smaller projects in-house, while we collaborate with trusted subcontractors and partners for larger endeavors.
Addition costs are influenced by what’s being added and the choice of finishes. Expect higher costs for bathrooms or kitchens due to the complexity of the work involved. Starting roughly at $450 per square foot in the Silicon Valley area, the costs can rise based on the project's specifics and quality of finishes desired.
Kitchen remodels can range significantly based on finishes and fixtures, with costs starting around $60,000 and can go well over $100,000 for high-end designs. Custom cabinets, countertops, appliances, and lighting all play a role in the final quote, which we tailor to each client's unique wishlist.
A full bathroom overhaul begins at around $50,000, with primary bathrooms often starting around $70,000. We work with you to find the best solutions that align with your expectations and budget, given the wide range of quality in fixtures and finishes.
We value consistency and swift progress. A small bathroom may take 4-6 weeks, while a large bathroom can take up to 7 weeks. Small kitchen remodels are around 8 weeks, larger kitchens up to 12 weeks. Room additions take about 3 months, major remodels 8-12 months, and new custom homes can range from 12-20 months, provided design and materials are finalized beforehand.
When we bid a job and put together an estimate, it's generally based on our purchasing and controlling all aspects of the project. Plans, permits, special inspections, and temporary utilities are encouraged for the owners to pay directly. We can discuss arrangements for direct payments for supplies and subcontractor work depending on the scope and timing of your project.
We do not ask for money upfront but expect payments to be made in a timely manner post-invoice to maintain project flow and ensure our employees, subcontractors, and suppliers are paid on time. The payment schedule may vary, with more frequent invoicing near major project milestones.
Founded in 1980, G.L. Perry Construction, Inc. brings decades of experience and a superior staff to every job. Our layered management system ensures that your project is supported at every level. We solve problems efficiently and maintain excellent relationships with our clients long after the work is done.
