Whether we are remodeling\/renovating<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>or building homes, R.L. Baker Construction creates and designs distinctive projects with unique features. Longevity underlies every product, procedure and design decision made by R.L. Baker Construction. Quality materials and energy efficiency<\/a> have also become company benchmarks. Our ability to design\/build fits perfectly into the niche provided by many of southern Michigan\u2019s lakefront homes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The Process<\/h3>

R.L. Baker Construction\u2019s operating philosophy is based on trust, communication, and service. The basis of the company\u2019s design\/build process<\/a> has been developed with a mutual respect for the client\u2019s desires, specific layouts, and architectural features.<\/p>

When prospects become clients, the R.L. Baker \u201cconstruction team\u201d keeps them apprised of their decision-making responsibilities, well ahead of schedule, so the stress of deadlines in minimized. Prior to commencement, R.L. Baker Construction conducts meetings with subcontractors so each trade is aware of scheduling requirements and challenges the project may present.<\/p>

R.L. Baker Construction insists on working only with subs and suppliers whose knowledge, skills, and reliability are well documented.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
