Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Q. What is the first step to start construction or a remodel?
    Don't worry if you haven't identified an architect, designer or contractor yet. At Cutting Edge Development (CED), whether serving as a consultant or general contractor, we help you recruit the best professional team for your project. In fact, its best if you contact us first for a streamline experience. CED will evaluate your building site and make the appropriate recommendations.
  2. Q. What if I'm already in the middle of a project?
    That's okay. Sometimes projects get stalled or extra help is needed. We can step in and help make it right from whatever point the project stalled or work with your existing team to complete the project.
  3. Q. We want to build in California, can you help us?
    CED is licensed as a general contractor for both Hawaii and California. We can build and supervise projects on any of the Hawaiian Islands, as well as anywhere in California.
  4. Q. I live out of state, how do I keep track of my project's progress?
    At CED we value client communication so we will always keep you current on your project's progress. We promptly return phone calls and emails.

    On our website we maintain a client portal that allows you a confidential log-in to view plans, written reports, estimates, receipts, photographs and more. We can even have a live cam of the worksite.
  5. Q. We've heard a lot about sustainable building. Can you recommend green?
    We've found that many green building products and design considerations can help with energy efficiency, hence saving money long term. We will include sustainable options and vendors in the bid stage to evaluate if going green is right for your project. We can build to LEED certification standards and are proud of our green track record.
  6. Q. How much will this cost and how long will this take?
    CED will assist you in creating a realistic budget and timeline for your project.
