General Construction & Project Management
REVIEW OF CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
Ensuring the documents are accurate, consistent, and reasonable for the industry standards.
BILL OF QUANTITIES
An accurate estimate of cost will be obtained at best by pricing measured quantities and items contained in the construction documents. Material ordering lists will be useful should it be desired.
COST ESTIMATE ANALYSES
Realistic independent cost estimates based on measured quantities and firm proposals for all items and services.
PROJECT PLANNING & SCHEDULING
Time is the essence of the contract; hence it is critical that a contract period be established as the first order of business. Planning and scheduling the relevant items of work must be at the heart of the contract.
PROPOSAL EVALUATION & FURTHER RECOMMENDATIONS
There should be a comparative review of all bids and proposals to ensure that they are fully responsive to the construction documents (without qualifications and exclusions). It is critical at this stage to confirm that the respective bids and proposals are in compliance with the contract conditions.
BUILDING PERMITS & INSPECTION PROCESS
Most permits should be obtained by the licensed contractor executing the work. However, the owner must monitor this aspect of the work to ensure that all relevant and required permits are obtained, and inspections are requested in good time. It should be determined whether any aspect or item of work has to be inspected or reviewed by any Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) other than the relevant building department.
OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY & HEALTH
Compliance with OSHA and other 'State and Local regulatory agencies' should be included in the construction project contract. The contractor's safety program should be reviewed and approved before the commencement of the work. Regular and unscheduled safety walks should be done to establish whether a safe worksite is being maintained.
COMPLIANCE WITH THE CONTRACTS
Generally, most items under the Compliance Management would be covered under the architectural services, but should that not only be the case; then responsibility would fall to the owner or the construction manager of the project. Close attention should be given to testing laboratory services, shop drawings, product data and sampling processes, project management records, building code inspections, subcontractors' coordination, installation sequencing, QC/QA, certificates for payment, change orders, and other final accounts that would be held.
CLOSE-OUTS
As part of contract compliance, the contract should figure those of the responsible parties; if not the architect, then the owner or the construction manager will satisfy himself that all defects have been rectified, all statutory requirements have been met, and that the work has been completed as intended by the construction documents and procedures.

ROOFING
Florida is one of the most beautiful places to live, work, and enjoy, but the roofs on homes in the state sure do take some abuse. The relentless shiny sun constantly beats down, Florida's infamous torrential afternoon downpours can waterlog roof frames, and not to mention hurricanes and other strong wind storms that can shatter tiles or send shingles flying all over. As the blue-chip roof replacement company in South Florida, YAPI GROUP's Roofing has experience equipping roofs with enough stability and quality materials to handle Florida's worst weather elements.
It is an unfortunate case that even the sturdiest roof won't last forever. There are many elements that cause roof repairs to be needed by property owners. Some of them include overgrown trees that cause limb build-up, constant sun and heat, severe weather like rain or wind, and simply older age. Roof repairs and replacements are a necessity for property owners who want to keep their roofs looking new and performing up to their potential.
As the roof ages, it's more prone to become weaker and vulnerable to weather elements. Small, unnoticeable wood rot in the roof framing or leaks in the roof not visible to the naked eye can eventually develop into bigger problems. A weak roof can be the culprit for a damaged roof frame, compromised structure of the building, mold growth, weakening of ceilings, and destruction of personal belongings inside the building. To prevent small roof damage from becoming an even bigger problem, then roof replacement should be considered for older roofs.
Many property owners feel overwhelmed when roof replacement is needed in their homes or commercial building. But YAPI GROUP's Roofing works hard to make the process as smooth, predictable, and fast as possible. Our experienced specialists first visit the subject building and inspect the works that are needed. We do carefully develop a realistic and accurate estimate that acquaints the owner, the budget, and the time needed to complete the subject roof replacement.
YAPI GROUP is able to replace all types of roofs, including:
Flat Roofs, Built-Up-BUR Roofs, Low & High Pitch Roofs, Steep-Angled Roofs, Metal Roofs, Clay & Concrete Tile Roofs, Three-Tab or Laminated Asphalt Shingle Roofs, Wood Shingle Roofs, Natural Wood & Man-made Shake Roofs, and Slate Roofs.
When your building is in Florida and is in need of a roof repair or replacement, don't waste your time or take chances with non-reputable, unseasoned ones. Do not hesitate to contact YAPI GROUP's Roofing, and we'll be there on the spot to assess the roof and get to the necessary work. Using top-notch quality materials, experienced roofing experts, and an efficient team has made many homeowners in the area ecstatic with our company, repair/replacement work, and their own newly beautified roof.
Some types of roofing may be better suited for your house than others. Factors such as the slope of the roof and the strength of the framing could limit your choices. In areas prone to severe weather conditions, storms, and hurricanes, look for a product with good wind resistance. In addition, steps can be taken during the installation of many types of roofing to improve their resistance to fire or wind. Below is a rundown of the different types of roofing available today.
The factors to consider when selecting a roof:
