Bernhard accepts work with general contractors and owners based on plan/specifications or design/build, or as the primary contractor. Regardless of our role, we manage every aspect of Division 15 (mechanical) to ensure the project is completed on time, on budget.

At Bernhard, all estimators and senior office personnel know the nuts and bolts of the mechanical business because they've spent a minimum of 10 years in the field, installing equipment and understanding how systems work.

The Bernhard Method of calculating labor, materials and the total project cost is an original estimating system that is time-proven and handed down from one generation to the next through an apprenticeship program. A good memory and a talent for detail helps us contribute expert advice based on extensive experience.

Once work begins, the project estimator becomes the project manager so you deal with the same individual from start to finish. Over the years, we've earned the confidence of many general contractors and owners who know we deliver what we promise.
