Safety comes first at Charles Black Construction, and has since the creation of the company.  Our company is founded on the care and motivation we have to serve our immediate community and with that, our aim is always quality of performance over quantity of jobs.

Charles Black Construction employs skilled craftsmen who can perform concrete work, carpentry work, erect metal buildings, place metal standing seam roofs and also has a network of subcontractors that perform the above-mentioned work and all other trades required for completing a project.

Charles Black Construction provides professional project management. Our Project Managers, Superintendents, and Supervisors are experienced and receive on-going training in management, construction techniques, and safety. We hold weekly safety meetings and we are committed to extensive supervision and craft worker Safety Training.

At Charles Black Construction every building project is important to us. We approach all projects, large or small with the same sense of importance, and offer our clients a full range of preconstruction and construction services. We approach every project as a team combined of the Owners, the Architect and the Construction Managers with one goal in mind and that is to provide the Owners with Safe, Quality Work On-Time and In-Budget. Through our previous Construction Management experience with Owners, Architects, and Trade Contractors, we have come to realize that “people” are the most valuable resource to manage on our projects. We get to know these people on a personal level and understand their objective and goals and simply follow the “Golden Rule”. Charles Black Construction offers professional Construction Management and Value-Engineering services.

We participate as a team member together with the owner and design professionals to develop a construction budget during the critical planning and design development phase of the project. This team approach provides the owner with information required to make project decisions. Up front construction costs can be weighed against long term operating costs. Design options can be considered with accurate pricing information available.

• Procurement lead times.

• Review and approval of monthly draw requests.
• Project safety policies, observation and enforcement.
• Solicit and pre-qualify contractors, vendors and suppliers.

Our experience in self-performing construction work makes Charles Black Construction a better construction manager. We are not simply a contract administrator. We understand construction techniques, costs, sequencing, scheduling, labor issues, subcontractor coordination issues, etc.

Charles Black Construction provides practical construction experience, value engineering and up-to-date construction techniques. We work with a network of design professionals and will assemble a team to complete the project design and construction documents.

From Design-Bid-Build to Design-Build to Whatever You Need, our company will work from first idea to final execution to bring a dream into reality. Whether it is a top of the line facility to an addition/renovation, we are committed to providing the highest quality in both design and craftsmanship.

This Design-Build team approach works very well with fast track construction projects. Value engineering, scheduling, and project budgets are all being incorporated during the design phase of the project.

Some of the benefits the Design-Build approach offers the owner are:

• Charles Black Construction’s experience in developing a project from concept to completion.
• The design team will include design professionals from each discipline necessary to complete all work included in the project.
• The owner becomes a member of the Design-Build team. The extent of the owner’s participation in the design-build process will vary from project to project.
• Project budgets are established early in the project development stage. Cost control measures are in place during the design development phase of the project.
• Schedules may be accelerated because design, finance issues, estimating, subcontract selection, permit application and construction may overlap (fast track).
• The team approach to design and construction minimizes costly change orders after construction contracts have been signed and construction has begun.
• Design costs are reduced due to the team approach used in the design-build process.
