General Contractor in Sedalia, MO

A lot of Sedalia housing is older and established, and an addition here is as much about tying in to an existing roof and matching an older home as it is about adding square footage. We plan additions to match the house so the work reads as part of it, not a box bolted onto the side. On an older home the foundation has settled and the roof line has its own character, and any new work has to line up with that or it shows within a season. We read the roof line, the foundation and the siding before we plan, so the new work lines up with the old.

Remodels on in town property have to be handled with care, because the house is often occupied and the neighbors are close. We plan the order of operations to keep the home livable, coordinate the trades, and leave a clean site when we finish. A remodel that runs on schedule matters most when the family is living in the house the whole time, and we run the job so the work comes together in the right order instead of in a scramble.

Sedalia has real commercial work too, from buildouts to site work, and we coordinate the permits with the City of Sedalia and Pettis County for each project. One contractor running the schedule keeps a commercial job from becoming a coordination mess of trades and paperwork. We manage projects start to finish, from the first site visit to the final walkthrough, so you have one point of contact through the whole build.

Decks come up on the older homes here too, where a backyard gets real use through the warmer months. We plan height, stairs and footings, pull the required permits, and on an older home we tie the deck in to the existing structure the same way we match an addition. A deck built to stand up to Missouri weather is one less thing an older property has to be redone in a few years.

With the Missouri State Fair in town and the Katy Trail running through, Sedalia sees a lot of visitors and a lot of wear on its in town property. An addition or a remodel here is often about making an older home work harder for a household that has outgrown it, and we plan that work to respect the age of the house while giving the family the space it actually needs. The fairgrounds and the trail are part of what makes the town what it is, and the housing stock reflects decades of families passing through and staying.

Missouri law requires a utility locate through Missouri 811 before any excavation on your property, which applies to addition foundations and commercial site work alike. We build that into the schedule and keep one point of contact through the whole job, so you are not tracking down trades on your own.
