01Overview

Construction Management by Presto Constructions

An experienced team on your side of the table, managing cost, time and quality from pre-construction to close-out.

Under a construction management model, Presto Constructions joins your project early, often during design, and acts as your advisor and manager throughout. We help shape the budget, plan the schedule, tender trade packages competitively and manage construction with open-book cost reporting.

This approach suits larger or more complex projects, owners who want visibility into every cost, and projects where timing is critical and early packages, such as excavation or structural steel, need to start before design is complete.

06FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between construction management and general contracting?
With general contracting, the contractor gives a fixed price for a defined design. With construction management, the manager joins early, advises during design, tenders the trade work on your behalf and reports costs openly, which gives you more control and transparency.
When should I bring in a construction manager?
As early as possible, ideally during schematic design. Early involvement lets us influence the design for cost and constructability and set a realistic budget and schedule.
How is a construction manager paid?
Typically through a management fee plus the actual cost of the work, with all trade costs visible to you. We'll explain the options during pre-construction.
Can construction management work for smaller projects?
Yes. The model scales. Many owners use it for phased renovations or fit-outs where flexibility and visibility matter.
