Professional Service Agreement

We provide design services in-house as well as partner with some of the best designers, engineers, and architects in the region depending on what a client, and the project needs.  We provide design services in tandem with our pre-construction estimating and discovery due diligence or Professional Service Agreements (PSA) to make sure the design path does not derail a project.   

So many projects go to the imaginary junk heap because the creative energy created a $700k project for a $400k budget.  And by the time that is discovered, the time and money has already been spent.  PSA’s help us to eliminate the guesswork from a construction project. PSA's involve, but are not limited to, the following services:
  • digging out a footing to check for compatibility
  • checking and mapping electrical wiring
  • defining each line item trade to have a clear scope of work for subcontractors
  • preconstruction calendars and critical path Gantt charts
  • costing of finishes
  • working with clients to educate them on the difference in prices for the same designs on the same projects (for example why is one cabinet bid $7500 and the other $14500?)
  • defining construction terms
  • defining the level of customer involvement
  • defining the levels of service
  • defining what is included and what is excluded throughout the project
These pre-construction services are essential to know whether a team should move forward and actually start construction.  Sometimes the smart answer is “no.”

Picture a professional sports team formed by a couple of personal meetings and the signing of a contract.  With no practice, or anything other than a scouting report, they enter a game, how effective can they be? 
  • The PSA provides a valuable service of providing information and defines the scope of work, but more importantly gets the team working together before the contract is signed and the actual construction begins.  We offer no PSA or Design-Build contract that has an obligation to continue to construction phase with Berkley Construction Inc.
  • The current model used by some in the construction industry of getting plans, then collecting free “bids” and trying to figure out which one is best is ludicrous.  Free is simply worth what it costs.  The system results in vague contracts with a poorly defined scope of work and a surefire way to not know what you are paying for, and what is included or not.

Berkley Construction Inc. takes on the right projects, not just large ones, or simple ones, but the right ones with the right clients.  Come see what it's like to ENJOY the construction process!

What Our Clients Are Saying

Berkley Construction did an excellent kitchen remodeling job. They took a boring, outdated kitchen and replaced it with beautiful new countertops, a stainless-steel gas range, tile floor, tons more storage, even mounted a T.V. in there for the chef. They did a wonderful job for less than I expected! I highly recommend Berkley Construction. Read More...
