Common General Contracting FAQ
What is the GC Process
Our estimation process begins with an in-depth consultation to understand project goals and specifications. We then conduct site reviews, analyze materials, and consider timelines to create a comprehensive cost estimate.
How quickly can we get a project estimate
Our estimation timelines depend on project size and complexity. We strive to deliver preliminary estimates promptly, followed by detailed breakdowns once additional project details are finalized.
How does an estimate translate to project cost
Our estimates provide a transparent view of potential costs, helping to prevent surprises during the project. We account for materials, labor, permits, and contingencies, offering a complete project cost analysis.
What kind of experience do you have estimating projects

Construction & Pre-Construction Phase
During the construction phase, as your General Contractor Dasd assume all management responsibilities both on and off the site in the form of a Project Manager and full time Site-Superintendent:
Post Construction Phase
DASD Contracting also offers Construction Management services under CCDC 5B, a flexible and collaborative approach that allows for greater owner involvement and cost transparency. As a Construction Manager (CM), we work closely with owners, architects, and consultants from the early design stages to project completion.
Unlike a traditional lump-sum (General Contracting) contract, CCDC 5B enables us to act as as a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) - which means we provide both advisory and execution services, assuming responsibility for trade contracts and project delivery while ensuring seamless coordination between all stakeholders. This approach is ideal for projects that require early contractor involvement, fast-tracked timelines, or evolving design requirements. Learn about our Construction Management Services.
