Owner's Representation & Construction Advisory
Architects, engineers, contractors, and consultants may each be experts in their craft, but successful projects require someone to keep the entire team aligned, performing together, and on tempo.
Construction Advisory
For some owners, construction is unfamiliar territory. They may be preparing to make a major investment without knowing how to evaluate budgets, manage consultants, compare contractor proposals, review change orders, or anticipate risks before they become expensive problems.
Other owners understand construction well, but are already responsible for running a business, managing properties, leading an organization, or overseeing operations. They may know what needs to happen, but simply do not have the time, internal staff, or dedicated construction expertise to keep every detail moving in the right direction.
That is where we come in. We serve as the owner's representative and construction advisor, helping protect your interests while keeping the project team aligned, accountable, and focused on achieving your goals. From early planning through final turnover, we bring structure, oversight, and practical construction experience to help owners make informed decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and maintain control of the process.
A Perspective Few Advisors Possess
Our team brings experience as developers, owner's representatives, construction managers, general contractors, and specialty contractors. Having worked from multiple sides of the table, we understand how different stakeholders evaluate risk, make decisions, and define success.
We speak the language of owners, architects, engineers, and contractors alike. We know when to challenge assumptions, when to ask difficult questions, and when to listen. Most importantly, we understand how to bring diverse teams together around a common objective and keep projects moving forward.
Selected Project Experience
These projects were managed under employment at a past firm and do not represent work managed directly by Symetrik Contracting.
The all-girls private school underwent a major transformation of its gymnasium, originally built in 1988. The upgraded facility was designed to better support student athletics, PE classes, and campus events. The project included new motorized athletic equipment, interior window openings, structural steel, a viewing balcony, new flooring, graphics, and wall finishes.
The project consisted of the demolition of an existing structure and the construction of a 108-unit multifamily apartment building with 34 surface parking spaces, a rooftop terrace, resident amenity spaces, robotic furniture systems in select units, and a managed Wi-Fi network.
The project involved the demolition of a former Safeway building and the construction of a new five-story private school campus. The facility features a black box theater, gymnasium, below-grade parking structure, multipurpose synthetic turf field constructed atop the parking garage, and a custom-designed playground.
The project involved the modernization of Van Ness Elementary School, including the expansion of an existing wing to accommodate a new gymnasium and the complete renovation of the facility's interior spaces. The work delivered modern classrooms, collaborative learning environments, a media center, cafeteria, and outdoor play areas.
The project involved the demolition of the existing recreation center and the construction of a new 32,000-square-foot community recreation facility with a gymnasium, indoor aquatic center, fitness spaces, community rooms, senior activity areas, below-grade parking, play areas, and basketball courts.
