While tract builders embrace evenflow or slotting production methods, remodelers schedule around the time a client leaves for work. While builders offer a controlled options list, remodelers offer clients virtually limitless product choices. And while builders demand volume price cuts from subs, remodelers hope for efficiencies by running a tight jobsite, paying quickly … and because their fathers played cards together, back in the day.
