Paul Maurer General Contracting (PMGC) always puts the client first. Project budgets are closely monitored just like the actual construction. PMGC foremen communicate with homeowners every step of the way to ensure that decisions are made jointly. Trust with clients, architects, sub-contractors, and suppliers takes years to achieve. PMGC has never taken these commitments lightly.
Proof is in customer satisfaction and the return rate. Paul’s customers keep coming back to him for new projects. And they tell their friends and acquaintances.
Paul has built and remodeled a wide variety of homes in this area. He has worked with several local and regional architects over the years and will be happy to recommend an architect that he believes fits your individual design challenge. He is also more than willing to work with an architect of your choosing.
