The role of a General Contractor is one of leadership and service, in which the chosen firm takes full responsibility for the construction of a project. Wolverine Building Group has been providing General Contracting services throughout West Michigan for more than 30 years. We provide exceptional value for our clients with the highest level of quality.

General Contracting is the typical approach to the traditional design/bid/build method of construction.

When using this approach, our qualified staff will work to oversee the project organization, manage the flow of materials and personnel, maintain proper cost control, and ensure that a project is completed on time according to the plans and specifications set forth by the owner.

We can also work with the owner’s selected architect to develop compre-hensive bid packages and oversee the competitive bid process. Through our years of experience, we have developed a comprehensive list of qualified contractors in the area and maintain strong relationships with many of them.

General Contracting also maximizes the benefits of our self-performance capabilities. Our field personnel are highly trained with tremendous depth and knowledge. When appropriate and beneficial, they have the ability to self perform demolition services, cast-in-place concrete, steel erection, carpentry, general trades, and painting.
