A Lifetime of Service is more than just a motto for Structural Associates. It’s a commitment to active service. It continues from initial construction through the life of your home. Founded by Bruce Shugart and Shane Evans, Structural Associates has been building custom homes since 1982. Throughout that time they have consistently fulfilled the company’s mission to offer the highest quality custom homes and to provide personal attention and unparalleled levels of service well beyond initial construction.
The Highest Level of Service
Structural Associates distinguishes its position in the construction industry by offering a variety of client services: project commitment, organizational efficiency, international materials and supply network, continuous education, plus a lifetime of service. At Structural Associates, they understand that the creative process of building a home is a team effort. Through an effective approach that combines the components of architect, interior designer and client, Structural Associates assembles the very best resources for the best solutions.
Throughout the building process, Structural Associates remains dedicated to overseeing the development and achievement of each project’s goals. A Structural Associates principal manages each construction team, personally ensuring the project’s success. Experienced team members are involved at the planning phase to identify and implement efficiencies and to ensure effectiveness. Their commitment continues well beyond handing the keys over to the owners. Structural Associates is dedicated to assisting each client through an orientation to their custom home and to providing services for the home’s lifetime. What other commitment could better illustrate their commitment to clients and the confidence they have in the quality of their work?
Proven Materials
Mountain homes require durable materials that can withstand the challenges of the climate. Structural Associates is diligent in researching and testing new building products and techniques to ascertain if they will yield an added value to clients and if they will withstand the rigors of extreme mountain weather conditions. Structural Associates’ tenacity in finding the right product at the right price ensures that Structural Associates’ homeowners will receive the unique construction materials and techniques that they expect and deserve.
Sustainable Building and Alternative Energy
As a member of the U.S. Green Building Council, Structural Associates is also a leader in the application of green building techniques, including sustainable building and alternative energy technologies. The company provides renewable and sustainable construction practices that benefit the environment and provide better interior air quality for its clients. In each custom home, Structural Associates works to identify green building strategies tailored to meet each client’s specific goals.
