Range of work & contractual considerations
We are primarily woodworkers. We build to specification, install our work, or supply services (such as machining wood) as needed.
When we reach the end of our skill set, we engage other professionals. Plumbing, electrical, extensive framing, drywall/texture, etc.
Insured through The Hartford; they email our policy coverage directly to you. Currently we are insured for $1,000,000.
In our statement of work we detail timelines, responsibilities and dependencies, materials and broad construction details, site access issues & requirements, windows of work time, and who the decision maker is during the various phases of a project. That can be simple (furniture for example), or more complex (designer during build, site manager during install, etc).
Payment: Generally, 50% before work begins, the remainder split over delivery/installation. We can work with credit card payment (with transaction fee), electronic payment (through our credit union), or cash. Zelle and Square are our current electronic funds transfer tools. Zelle is a no fee platform.
Technology
We are regularly improving our processes & products to provide better results.
- Finishes are moving to water based (Colorado low VOC requirements, as well as technology, marches on). Currently we are about 98% water based. The exception is generally towards shellac products as a barrier layer to old products. Modern water based products also improve worker safety as much as clients home/work space safety.
- We are working on offering laser engraving to our product options. This will add to our personalization options.
- Onsite, we use HEPA vacuum systems (not just HEPA filters; documentation available on request). The overwhelming majority of our power tools have built in dust collection.
- As needed we use an ambient air cleaner to capture as much dust as possible that escapes during the building process.
- Workspace noise is also important to us. Often we will be in a space that is occupied, or has neighbors. Our compressor, vacuums, and power tools are chosen to minimize noise impact.
