"The 'Lead Carpenter System' which Dakota Builders uses is a real winner."

Mrs. R. Brownell McGrew

At Dakota builders we perform our work using what is known as the "Lead Carpenter System".

Under the Lead Carpenter System, all the work on a project from start to finish is produced and coordinated by a Single Lead Carpenter. Each Lead Carpenter is an expert in all phases of home improvement and remodeling work from foundation to finish carpentry.

We always hire subcontractors to do electrical, plumbing, and heating work, since these trades require a separate license. Occasionally on larger projects we will also hire subcontractors (who work under the supervision of our Lead Carpenter) to do roofing, drywall, and insulation work.

The homeowner benefits from having a single source of contact and responsibility for their project, and a higher level of quality.

This system generates projects that are consistently higher in quality, since there is such close communication between the Lead Carpenter and the homeowner, and only one individual is responsible for the quality of all of the work.

We find that our Lead Carpenter becomes almost a member of the family during a project, and that homeowners feel more comfortable having someone they have gotten to know supervising the work in their home, rather than having different crews coming and going.

So, when you are ready to build that new home, addition, or other remodeling project, give us a call and let us make one of our Lead Carpenters part of your family.
