Do you provide design guidance or work with architects?
Both. We can collaborate with your architect or designer, or we can help guide you through early layout and planning decisions. Our goal is to ensure the finished project reflects
quality, functionality, and thoughtful design.
Who completes the work on-site?
We use a balanced approach to maintain high standards:
- Our in-house team handles a large portion of the work, including demolition, framing, trim work, and carpentry, ensuring consistency and craftsmanship.
- For specialized or licensed trades, we partner with trusted subcontractors who meet our expectations for quality and professionalism.
This combination allows us to deliver
excellent workmanship while keeping projects efficient and well-managed.
How do you manage cleanliness and dust during construction?
We take great care to respect your home.
- Dust barriers and floor protection are installed at the start of every project.
- Our team performs daily clean-ups to keep the jobsite organized.
- When needed, we arrange for a professional post-construction cleaning crew, leaving your space spotless and ready to enjoy.
What does a project typically cost?
Costs vary depending on project size, material selections, and overall scope. After the walkthrough, we provide a
detailed, transparent proposal outlining all work and pricing.
If you have a preferred budget range, we can help guide selections that balance
quality and value.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. All craftsmanship performed by McQuade Construction is covered by a
3-year workmanship guarantee, giving you confidence in the long-term quality of your project.
How long do projects usually take?
- Smaller projects: a few days to a couple of weeks
- Kitchen, bathroom, or basement remodels: several weeks to a few months
- Additions and new construction: several months or more
We share a projected schedule before work begins and keep you updated throughout the project.
Can you work with my designer or architect?
Absolutely. We frequently collaborate with design professionals to help bring well-planned, high-quality projects to life. Whether it’s your designer or one we recommend, we work as a team to achieve the best outcome.
What happens if I want to make changes during construction?
If you’d like to make adjustments during the project, we’ll review the impact on cost or timeline, prepare a change order, and move forward only once you approve it.
