History
Dancing Ants is a company created to give the power in decision making and control back to the homeowner. This is for anyone who is interested in undertaking an addition, renovation or even building a custom home either with a professional contractor or by their own direction as an owner builder. At first thought, the name doesn’t make sense. But after thinking about ants, most people understand that they build very complex structures and do so quickly and efficiently while maintaining consistent standards through hard work. These are the qualities that we embody through a suite of services that can be customized for any residential building need.
After twenty-five years working in the construction industry from nearly all ends of the spectrum from subcontractor, prime contractor, design consultant, owner’s representative, and owner we have found the usual method of project delivery to be self-serving and lacking in teamwork and coordination. The main issue being the more parties involved in the coordination, direction and decision making in a project, the more convoluted the process and the less likely the project could be completed on time, on budget and on task. Through this our mission was developed. To facilitate an improved building process using advanced building software, best practices of construction management, and a collaborative teamwork approach involving less parties. A build project involving only two parties, the owner, and the skilled trade contractor.
