If you just bought a second home but want work done before you take that vacation, you may be wary about trusting a contractor from afar. On the other hand if you wait, your time in your second home will be spent living amongst construction projects. That’s no fun! So what’s the solution in this situation? While it depends on you and what you’re comfortable with, working with an experienced company that is set up for virtual communication makes a big difference. Here are just a few things that we at Straight Line Construction do to help ensure our snow birds and other second home owners that the job is getting done, and it’s getting done right.
Consistent, Clear Communication
Renovations are a big investment, so we know that if you’re not there to see it for yourself, you’ll want to hear from us quite frequently. And we’re not only ok with that, we’re planning for it. We’ll schedule routine check-ins with you and be available for any questions in between.
Scheduling Updates & BuilderTREND Logs
In addition to consistent telephone communication, we’ll also communicate with you via our scheduling software and BuilderTREND logs. We’ll share the project timeline through the scheduling software so that you’re always up to date with the project status. You’ll also receive logs that detail our activities each day through BuilderTREND. This way, you can keep up to date with the progress of your renovation from anywhere.
Video Walk-Throughs by Request
To better support you from afar, can also provide detailed video walk-throughs by request during the construction process, allowing you to ask questions throughout. And of course, we can provide a final walk through if you are not able to attend in person, where you can ensure that the work meets your expectations.
Electronic Payments
We make it easy to deal with the financial side of things with electronic payments. It’s hassle-free for everyone.
