Construction Administrator

FINFROCK is the true definition of “design-build”. It is a collaborative effort between Design and Construction during the entire process of providing our clients with the finished product. At FINFROCK, you will experience the true essence of the “Master Builder”, as our Architects get the opportunity to see their conceptual designs develop in the office, then see the actual construction of their designs out in the field with our own crews.

Unlike most traditional architecture firms, FINFROCK embraces the opportunity to use our construction sites as a classroom for our staff. For FINFROCK architects, there is no greater sense of accomplishment than to see the projects we design rise out of the ground, with a full understanding of the challenges of their constructability.
