The integration of our specialty trades enables us to offer our customer benefits that cannot be matched by any individual trade contractor. Some of the advantages of our integrated services include the following:

Single source responsibility - Our integrated service eliminates one of the most frustrating problems in construction – who bears responsibility when a problem arises. By utilizing one contractor for all of the trades that affect the building envelope, we are able to provide our customers with single source responsibility. This will result in faster responses to problems, less administration by the builder, and the elimination of back-charges and finger-pointing between trades.

Higher quality - The best quality assurance measures are the ones you control. Because we control all aspects of the building envelope, we can ensure that each of the installation and material components of lath & plaster, roofing, and windows work together. We can truly execute on our inter-trade quality checklists because our company is 100% focused on the whole building envelope and not just one particular component of the envelope.

Faster construction cycle time - It is not uncommon to lose several days to several weeks of construction time due to the lack of coordination between trades. EBS utilizes sophisticated progress reports for each job to ensure that there is no delay between the finishing of one trade and the starting of another. We eliminate the normal inefficiencies of scheduling to provide our customers with the fastest construction cycle time possible.

Reduced administration - Working with EBS will save your office and field staff invaluable time due to less administration. By working with EBS, your office can work with fewer service vendors and have fewer billings to deal with. Because we are integrated, your field administration will spend less time coordinating between our trades and will have multiple points of contact consolidated into a single point of contact.

Reduced need for outside experts - Given the current state of the construction defect litigation environment, builders across the country are hiring third party inspectors to review each building at various stages of construction. EBS has adopted many of the standard inspection processes and forms to reduce the need for outside experts. Furthermore, all of our inspection reports are available to our customers online providing easy access to any information relating to any specific building envelope.

Marketing differentiation - We take great pride in the work that we do and we are eager to share our capabilities with potential homeowners. As part of our services, we provide mock-ups of the building envelope in each of the building envelope in each of the model complexes in which we are providing our integrated solutions. We also create customized sales informational brochures that can be distributed to potential homeowners to highlight the benefits of an EBS envelope, which enables you to differentiate your products.

More satisfied homeowners - With the increasing competition to attract homeowners, builders are increasingly turning to third party surveys to highlight the quality of their homes. J.D. Powers is the premier company in providing homeowner surveys, which are based on the satisfaction of existing homeowners. We believe that there are substantial benefits to builders in the area of satisfied homeowners because the probability of moisture intrusion is dramatically reduced with an EBS building envelope. Furthermore, the efficient and professional response to actual leaks will also lead to more satisfied homeowners.

In conclusion, EBS works hard to create unparalleled value for our customers. We constantly strive to enhance our capabilities and services to ensure that our customers can be proud of the beauty and integrity of their building envelope.
