Preconstruction

Process Prevents Problems

Every decision you make during preconstruction impacts your religious facility project’s cost, schedule, and quality during construction. As a construction manager, it’s our job to work hand-in-hand with you and the design team and help you make decisions in the best interest of the project.

STEP 1:

Ask the right questions

Preconstruction is the right time for questions when it comes to church construction. Finding clarity about the building you want, for the money you have, in the timeframe you need with the quality you expect is the best way to move your church construction project to completion. These answered questions help develop accurate estimates for an informed construction sequence complete with a site logistics plan you can have confidence in.

STEP 2:

Collaborate & Review

Sometimes to find the right answers, you need to ask the right people. We use input from you and your facility’s users, from the design team, construction team, quality control team, safety team, and trade contractors. This collaborative approach ensures all scopes are examined and all details are understood. Collaboration eliminates cost surprises, accelerates construction, and maximizes building your facility project.

STEP 3:

Accurate Cost Estimates

Trust Jacobe Brothers Construction for highly detailed and reliable cost estimates. We make sure our estimates are thoroughly detailed because it’s easier to make any needed changes to a church’s project during the early stages of design than to add them on during construction. True value engineering is more than simply “design and hack”; it’s research, evaluation, and constructability feedback. These are all essential before the first ground break. 

Schedule Management

Welcome to Jacobe Brothers Construction, your trusted partner for religious facility construction scheduling services. Our dedication to creating realistic schedules and honoring our commitments sets us apart. We manage projects with precise sequencing and collaborative discussions to minimize waste, enhance efficiency, and ensure you have confidence in your project timeline.

Our approach is grounded in practicality. Before setting completion dates, we conduct a thorough evaluation of project risks, logistics, and critical path activities. Using local data and resources, we develop a strategic plan that guarantees we meet your deadlines effectively.

Accountability and transparency are key to our process. Through daily planning sessions, regular reviews, and proactive course corrections, we keep your project on track. Our commitment to open communication with all stakeholders is supported by an assigned Jacobe Brothers Construction Project Manager and Procore construction software, providing you with consistent access to all project updates. Trust Jacobe Brothers Construction for a transparent, well-managed schedule and successful outcomes in your church construction project.

Quality Control

Constructing complex religious facilities involves the critical challenge of commissioning multiple systems, including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, life safety, and technology. At Jacobe Brothers Construction, we emphasize the importance of getting it right the first time. Our dedicated quality control personnel work meticulously to ensure all building systems are fully operational from day one. When you enter your new facility, you can trust that it will meet all design specifications, function seamlessly, and perform at its best.

Our approach to quality control is proactive and solution-oriented. We don't wait for issues to arise; instead, we identify potential problems early in the process and offer workable solutions to eliminate them. Our goal is to be involved from the outset of the construction management process to avoid issues altogether. During preconstruction, we develop a project-specific quality control plan, create checklists for every scope of work, and meticulously review each drawing for constructability and quality.

These upfront efforts significantly reduce the need for rework during construction, ultimately resulting in a better-quality building. At Jacobe Brothers Construction, we treat your projects as if they were our own. We are fully committed to doing it once and doing it right, so you get exactly what you want. You can rely on us to deliver a fully functional and high-quality facility right from the start.
