Some builders slap the "custom" label on homes but end up delivering spec houses with minimal tweaks. Others in the field cut corners by prioritizing the lowest bids for their subcontractors, putting the overall construction quality on the line. At Timberbrook Builders we’re committed to raising the bar and challenging these expectations.
For me, home building is all about effective risk management. Our contracts ensure profit margins are there, but our main focus shifts to a smooth building process that minimizes the risk of errors. Unfortunately, many builders take a short-sighted approach, neglecting the long-term consequences of their actions. As a subcontractor, I've been in situations where I received a mere $7,000 to frame, sheet, and install windows for a 1,600-square-foot home, excluding compensation for essential features like the garage and covered porch. This is a glaring issue in the industry that many clients aren't aware of. Items like windows, porches, and garages are often bundled into a framing package with no extra compensation for installation, disrespecting the skill involved and undervaluing quality.
This is where passion becomes crucial. While some builders prioritize profit margins over adequately compensating skilled workers, our focus on passion leads to exceptional craftsmanship. Passionate individuals go the extra mile, paying attention to detail and taking pride in their work. Fueled by passion, craftsmanship ensures the structures we build stand the test of time. We've been called upon to fix the mistakes of others – rebuilding decks and homes that failed within a year of construction. The root cause often lies in builders prioritizing profit margins and speed over long-term durability.
In contrast, we stand for an ethical and intentional approach to subcontracting, bidding, and building. Our bids cover every detail, ensuring transparency and fairness. We partner with and adequately compensate subcontractors who share our commitment to quality, fostering a collaborative environment that prioritizes the longevity and integrity of the structures we build.
Our commitment to excellence goes beyond the construction phase. We draw inspiration from companies offering comprehensive home care, maintaining a relationship with clients beyond the warranty period. This approach fosters trust and reliability, ensuring homes receive the attention they deserve throughout their lifespan.
In conclusion, Timberbrook Builders stands out for our dedication to passion-driven craftsmanship, ethical practices, and long-term client satisfaction. As we navigate the dynamic landscape of home building, our focus remains unwavering – building homes that stand as testaments to quality, sustainability, integrity, and enduring craftsmanship.
