3 Unique Ways Dow Smith Company Is Different
Than Other General Contractors

Servant Culture
The culture at Dow Smith starts with service. Listening to our clients and responding to their needs for a new or renovated building “lights our fire.” Pouring concrete, framing walls, hanging doors, and installing toilet paper holders are much more than just building activities. They are our ways to serve the needs of our clients.

Streamlined Process
From the moment we get hired, we immediately start a plan of action that we have crafted for more than 30 years. Imagine a flow chart that begins with assembling the design team and then moves to vision collaboration, schematic design, design development, construction drawings, construction, punch list, and move-in. And, all along those steps, a real world estimate is updated and shared with our client.

Transparent Communication
We show everything! We believe in developing strong relationships with our clients, but we can’t read their minds. The estimates we provide during the pre-construction phase and construction phase will show true and actual numbers. The fee we charge will be transparent. The wage we pay everyone is seen. Our labor burden is true. We will show all the quotes we receive from all of our subcontractors and vendors. And, when we have drawings sufficient to get quotes from subcontractors and vendors, we will get at least three estimates in each category. We make sure that our clients pay fair market value. We believe in consistent communication. We text. We email. We make telephone calls. And then we communicate what we anticipate to happen next. We communicate what we need to keep the project moving forward.
