What Does A General Contractor In Philadelphia Actually Do For You?
A general contractor is the one unit of accountability on your project. Instead of dealing with four different tradespeople with four different schedules, you work with one team. Alpha D&C handles everything: architectural plans; permit applications with the City of Philadelphia’s L&I department; subcontractor scheduling; material sourcing; inspections; and final walkthroughs.
Philadelphia’s comprising of aging housing stock, much of it rowhouses and twins dating back to the early 1900s, comes with unique structural challenges. Knob-and-tube wiring, cast iron plumbing, insulation deficiency , and foundations that have shifted over decades are common surprises. Many Philadelphia homes also require electrical panel upgrades, 200-amp service conversions, GFCI protection, and AFCI safety upgrades to meet current building code requirements during major renovations. Our team is skilled enough to deal with it. We don’t hide what we find; we explain it, price it fairly, and fix it right.
