Why Pinault

Craftsmanship, Experience & Integrity

42 years of building along this coast have taught us that a budget is set in preconstruction, long before anyone picks up a shovel. So we tell you what the house will cost, and when something changes the number, you hear about it that day, from us, with your options laid out.

Our promise

Straight answers from the first meeting.

Preconstruction, in practice

Changes happen on every build, having a contractor you can trust matters.

Every custom home evolves as it's built: a stone you fall for at the yard, a room you decide to open up, a finish that deserves an upgrade. We build the estimate from the architect's full drawing set, answer the open questions before you sign, and price every change with you before any work begins, so each decision is made with the number in front of you.

How we keep our word

Honesty, transparency & constant communication.

Questions answered on paper

Before the contract, we sit down with you and the drawings and flag anything vague. A gap in the plans is cheap to fix at a desk and expensive to fix once the walls are up.

B-02

You hear about challenges right away

Say a tile line gets discontinued mid-order. You get a call that week with what it means for cost and schedule, the options we'd recommend, and the decision stays yours.

B-03

Scope stays where you put it

The plan changes when you ask for a change and have seen the price. Every addition is your decision, priced before it's built.

Our own crews and shop

Our own crews handle all of the finish carpentry, so we control the quality and guarantee the work, and the cabinetry comes out of our own shop. Most of our subcontractors and suppliers have worked with us for decades, and that relationship puts our projects at the front of their schedule.
