BW Construction, INC
Brian Welk Construction is primarily servicing King County & Snohomish County
Business Philosophy
Although B.W. Construction, Inc. specializes in remodeling, they have an abundance of experience and have handled a wide variety of projects such as:
       ~ Building houses from the foundation to finish work
       ~ Remodeling
       ~ Additions
       ~ Decks/Patios
       ~ Specialty Finish Work
       ~ Commercial Remodel
 

The philosophy that Brian has always followed is that a remodel project should look like it was always a part of the original house.  In addition, he takes great care to leave the job site as clean as possible knowing that people have to live in the middle of remodel projects while they are going on.

As the owner/general contractor, Brian is on the job site everyday.  He does not believe in being hired to do a job and then sending subcontractors to do his work.  He is there each day to perform the work to completion.

Frequently Asked Questions
  •  Are you licensed?
              Yes, we are licensed, bonded, and insured according to Washington State regulations.

  • Will you, the owner, be on the job?
               Yes, I will be on the job each day.  Since we are a small company employing only myself and my nephew, I am on the job.  We also only do one job at a time.

  • What size job can you handle?
               We do everything from small fix it jobs, bath & kitchen remodels, decks, insurance jobs, to any size additions.  As well we have built houses as large as 7000 - 8000 sq. ft.from foundation to finish work.  So you could say, we can handle most any residential building project requested.

  • What type of work do you do?
               We do all phases of the work needed.  Framing, drywall, windows, insulation, painting, finish & trim work, cabinets, tile, and so on.  We do acquire sub-contractors for phases of the project we are not qualified by state law to perform (i.e. plumbing, electrical, ...).

  • How far will you travel to do a project?
              Although we like to stay in Northern King and Snohomish counties, we will travel further depending on the size of the project.  We have done jobs in Wenatchee, Anacortes, Bellingham, WA , as well as Ketchikan, AK.

  • Do I need blueprints or plans?

              It is very helpful to have plans already in place, however we can work without plans.  We also can draw qualified blueprints for your project.

  • Do I need a permit?

               Almost every job requires a permit, but there are jobs that are exempt from needing a permit.  This would be discussed before beginning the project.

  • How much will my project cost?

               Job costs are determined two different ways. 

               First, the job can be bid.  With a bid the cost is calculated using plans, predetermined materials, and estimated labor or time in which the job will be completed.  If any changes occur, change orders are made, signed and extra costs are added to the original bid. 

               The second option is "cost plus".  With this option the job costs are calculated only on materials used and labor to complete the job.  Then 15% "profit / overhead" costs are added, which determines the total expense of the project.  The "cost plus" option is our most commonly used option.

  • What is the payment process?

               Depending on the size of the job, most will require 25% - 50% deposits.  Larger jobs require the initial deposit, with additional payments made each month through the duration of the project.

  • Can I help with the project?

               Only if you want it to cost more :).  No, seriously.  You can help with demo, hauling, site clean up, and such.  When it comes to the professional aspects of the project we tend to want to handle it from there.

** If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.  We will get back to you promptly with an answer.
