Why KGC's number comes in lower

01

Self-performed scopes

Concrete, tilt-up, and site work done in-house — no GC markup on roughly 40% of the critical path.

02

Open-book budgets

Your sub bids and actual costs are visible throughout. Buy-out savings flow back to you, not to us.

03

Tilt-up specialization

Faster schedules mean lower interest-carry, shorter time-to-tenant, and predictable delivery dates.

Base Construction—

MEP Systems (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) ~12.9%—

Site Work & Permitting (~8%)—

Contingency (5–7%)—

A note on these numbers — This is a market-informed budget range based on Houston commercial construction rates for 2025–2026. Your actual bid depends on site conditions, finish choices, and material pricing at time of construction — we'll quote those specifics directly, not hide them in allowances. This is not a bid or contract. For a real number tailored to your project, talk to our pre-construction team.
