SERVICES

Pre - Construction

We help you start smart—guiding everything from property selection and pre-purchase inspections to zoning insight, constructibility reviews, and early cost and schedule clarity. By collaborating with architects and recommending the right design professionals, we turn ideas into feasible, well-planned projects before construction ever begins.

Construction Preparation

We lay the groundwork for a smooth build with detailed estimating, realistic scheduling, and early identification of any special processes—so there are no surprises once construction begins.

Construction Process

We manage the entire construction journey—from demolition and complex foundation work to fine carpentry and final finishes—handling every detail with precision and care. With deep experience across structural work, utilities, interiors, exteriors, and specialty trades, we turn ambitious ideas into beautifully executed spaces, inside and out.

Post - Construction

Our commitment doesn’t end at completion—we stay involved with follow-up support, maintenance, and refinements as your needs evolve. With a minimum one-year guarantee and long-term availability, we stand behind our work and your peace of mind.

ABOUT US

  • Providing a thoroughly professional and transparent process that leads homeowners to a clear and detailed understanding of the journey they are embarking on.

  • We believe successful projects start from a position of trust. This means going deep into explanations of obscure details or processes; not withholding information about how we arrive at project costs, sub-contractor selection, or necessary timeframes. Costs and material estimating are not outsourced, and we don’t engage in high-volume project bidding.

  • Beginning as a residential design-build firm in 1998, Van Zandt has evolved over the years into a general contracting business. Van Zandt has spent over 2 decades forming partnerships with local architects to build and develop residential properties in and around Seattle.
