In the crowded construction industry of the greater Charlotte area, standing out demands a commitment to excellence, innovation, and customer satisfaction. At Artistic Contractors, we pride ourselves on being different. Here’s why.
In-House Design with 3D Visualization
Artistic Contractors designs homes and townhomes in-house using SketchUp to create 3D home designs. This technology allows us to visualize homes in 3D, making it easier to determine what looks best and to identify potential issues before construction begins. Designing in-house helps prevent going over budget, as we can control costs and ensure the design aligns with your budget. Unlike working with an external architect who might design an overly expensive house, we know what the house will cost during the design phase, keeping everything within budget.
Experience and Expertise
Since our incorporation in 2010, Artistic Contractors has been dedicated to delivering exceptional results. Our portfolio showcases a range of successful projects, from custom homes to townhomes, each reflecting our commitment to quality and precision. When designing and building a home, using a contractor that has stood the test of time and worked on many different types of projects is key. We know how to handle any issues that may arise, ensuring smooth and timely project completion.
Commitment to Quality
We’ve been working with our subcontractors for a long time, developing strong, loyal relationships. They understand the level of quality we expect and often prioritize our projects to help us stay on schedule. We treat our subcontractors well and pay them on time, which has helped us build great relationships with the best subs in the greater Charlotte area.
Our homes are not built entirely with “builder-grade” materials. We strive to upgrade materials wherever possible, while remaining cost-competitive. Having worked with both high-end and budget-friendly materials, we know how to deliver exceptional quality and attention to detail that ensures the final result is not just a structure but a work of art that stands the test of time.
Vertical Integration
To save our clients money, we’ve learned to handle various phases of construction in-house. Certain subcontracted tasks have become increasingly expensive due to their technical nature and material costs. Instead of outsourcing these tasks, we’ve mastered them ourselves. For example, Artistic Contractors designs and installs pools, glass railings, shower glass and custom cabinets. By doing this work in-house, we can pass the savings on to our customers while ensuring everything integrates seamlessly with the home’s design.
Personalized Client Communication
We believe in putting our clients first and take pride in our communication. As a client, you’ll have direct interaction with our two owner-operators, Daron and Andrew. Being a smaller company, we offer a personal touch that larger firms often can’t. We provide weekly written updates on the project, detailing what happened this week, what will happen next week, and any financial concerns. We communicate via text, email, or phone—whichever you prefer—to keep you informed and involved every step of the way. Daron and Andrew are deeply invested in each project, ensuring that your needs are met and your expectations are exceeded. Your project’s success is our success.
Low Overhead for Cost Savings
As a smaller company, we have low overhead. We don’t employ layers of staff like accountants, procurement officers, interior designers, office managers, and marketing coordinators. This allows us to keep overhead costs low and pass the savings on to our clients, offering competitive pricing without compromising on quality.
Innovative Solutions with Advanced Technology
Innovation is key to our success. We use advanced technology like PlanSwift for precise estimating, ensuring our clients receive accurate and competitive quotes. This software allows us to meticulously measure and plan every detail. We also leverage Buildertrend to manage customer selections and change orders efficiently. Buildertrend is a platform that clients can log into to check schedules, keep all selections in one place, and monitor the financial overview of their projects.
Comprehensive Design Consultation
We consult on both interior and exterior designs, collaborating closely with our clients to ensure every aspect of the home meets their vision. We have a loyal network of local material suppliers, enabling us to provide virtually any material a client desires. Additionally, we pass on our “builder discounts” to clients when they purchase for their various allowance categories. We’ve worked with both expensive and budget-friendly materials and know how to value-engineer a rich look without breaking the bank. Whether you want to use our network of suppliers or order a sink from New Zealand, we can accommodate your needs. Every project we undertake is unique and tailored to meet the specific needs and preferences of our clients. We work closely with our clients to bring their vision to life, providing solutions that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. While we specialize in modern and contemporary designs, we’ve also built many traditional or Craftsman-style homes.
