Build From the Ground Up—With Experts Who Stay

Our Complete New Construction Process

We follow the same meticulous 9-step process for ground-up construction as we do for tenant build outs—because quality and communication don’t change based on project type:

• • Progressive Jobsite Inspections tied to payment applications

• • Pre-Completion Walkthrough and Punch List

• • Certificate of Occupancy and Labeled Key Delivery

• • Final Documentation: 1-Year Warranty, Lien Releases, As-Built Drawings, Product Warranties

The Jensen Contracting Advantage

Loyalty to Your Vision

We help our clients stay focused on their initial objective during construction. When surprises occur, we have a wealth of knowledge and solutions to keep your project on course and within budget.

Proactive Problem-Solving

Unlike handymen or unlicensed builders, our general contractor expertise means we can see problems before they happen—understanding how plumbing relates to roofing, how electrical affects HVAC, and how every decision impacts the whole building.

Code Compliance Experts

We’re directly in communication with Architects, Engineers, Fire Marshalls, and permitting agencies to ensure all codes are met before inspections. As a licensed and insured Commercial General Contractor, we have the ability to pull permits from all government agencies.

Investment Partners

Many of our clients are building to generate monthly income. We understand that attention to detail is critical for long-term property maintenance. We also know that the sooner you can get revenue coming in, the sooner you achieve your desired return on investment.

Growing With You

We enjoy being part of a company’s growth from the very first location through expansions, additions, and new locations. We want our clients to feel confident they have a reliable contractor to call, knowing their next project will be as smooth as the first.
