INTRODUCTION
This Updated Preliminary Budget for 5242 Vista Grande Drive was derived from the updated drawing set “Arnon Residence—50% Construction Documents” (46 pages), from Axelrod Design, dated 6/9/2022. Other drawings from Axelrod Design include Mechanical, CD Progress (14 pages) dated 1/6/2023, and Structural (20 pages) dated 12/21/2020, from Strandberg Engineering.
MurphyMcKenna Construction (MMC) calculated the costs using written proposals from subcontractors as well as our own internal cost estimating. All items should be considered allowances. Each line item (materials, labor, supervision) has a 15% markup added, with a 2% insurance surcharge added to the bottom subtotal.
This project is expected to take 16 months to complete. Management consists of Project Managers, Project Coordinators, and a Project Supervisor that works entirely on site.
As indicated in the Preliminary Budget, management’s hours are calculated by week and tied to the duration of the job. Note that supervision hours are calculated at 40h/week. The value represented in the cost code 1700 (Supervision) is the remaining balance after we distribute the hours across specific line items based on our understanding of how much time will be needed to supervise particular trades. Each line item includes allowances for material, labor, and supervision.
Best Regards,

Question from Connor Bonyeau MurphyMcKenna Construction, Inc. on Friday, Aug 2, 2024 at 12:48 PM PDT
Here is a model that was provided to me for the pool mech room door while working with the Ruskin Louver Reps. Please let me know if this works for you aesthetically.
If you scroll down on the pdf you will see "Typical Installation Details"
I believe we should use the "Metal Panel Wall" detail as it will be resting on top of the Metal Door. Unlike the drawing though, we would shift the louver to the very front/exterior face of the door. It is the drip edge/pan that I find very beneficial.

This week was a great week. We are almost complete with the preprufe waterproofing in the slab area and other required foundation areas.
We are working at completing another concrete pour of the foundation footings between the 21st and 23rd of this month, so that we can continue with the rest of the stem walls.
We have completed our review of the steel package and have sent it out to Axelrod and Strandberg for their final blessing before going to our steel contractor for the final round of shop drawings.
I believe the doors and windows review has also been completed on our end as well as Axelrod. We are now just waiting for the final drawing package from Cooritalia. These are both pivotal moments in the building process as there are so many factors related to successfully coordinating steel, windows and doors, concrete stem walls, shade pockets, pool details, you name it.
We have spent most of this week working on waterproofing the foundation areas and forming stem walls. Mark Dietrich from the waterproofing consultants was out to see the progress. And we had several inspections this week that went well.
Next week, we will have plumbers back on site to install more pre foundation plumbing for patio drains and gas lines to pool equipment room.
On Monday we have the pool contractor out on site to start installing the pipes in the stem wall that will travel between the pool and the pool mechanical room.
The MMC crew will be working on more foundation related items, such as steel connections, wood wall connection hardware, and foundation vent openings. We will also be installing more subdrainage.
The office is working at finalizing all fixture, equipment, and finish schedules with Axelrod. Landscape estimates are under way still, but we should hopefully receive the numbers in the next week or two.

“MurphyMcKenna has been very helpful on a current project where significant solid rock excavation under an existing home is occurring. They have been responsive, found the perfect subcontractor for the work, and we are looking forward to embarking on this project. The project also includes surgically cutting a new 49’ elevator shaft through the existing three-story home to the garage below. With such a complicated project, we feel we are in good hands with MMC”.

“I’ve worked with MurphyMcKenna on a project that required great attention to detail, as the products used were high end and needed to be installed in a very precise manner in order to show off their beauty. The project was also running on an extremely compressed schedule, and it finished on time without a sweat. Anthony’s team is courteous, patient and professional; they do a great job of monitoring and supervising their subcontractors, and they’re very communicative.”

“I’m a repeat customer of this company’s services, having relied on them to construct both a 3-story, 4000 square foot duplex condo project in San Francisco and then later a large custom single-family home (more than 5000 square feet). Both projects were extremely complex, and we were impressed by Anthony (one of the principals) and his insights, expertise, and contributions to overcome numerous logistical challenges that came up trying to effectuate (and often remediate!) the architects’ plans. In constructing the San Francisco duplex, his tasteful accents and improvements to the original design were masterful and helped us command top dollar when we sold the units later. The realtors raved over his tasteful execution using different structural elements of wood, stone, and steel. Based on his earlier phenomenal work, we hired him again to build our dream home in Berkeley, which is really a work of art thanks to his efforts. It was an extensive project, requiring a demolition, significant excavation and retaining wall work, tons of concrete, dozens of steel beams/reinforcements, and substantial amounts of high-end carpentry work. His team handled dozens of design changes seamlessly and efficiently. We could not be more pleased.
From what I’ve seen of Anthony over the past 10 years he is extremely conscientious and will do everything he can to bring your design vision into perfect form. If we build another home his company will definitely be our first choice again”.
J Nicholas G, Client
“We had a defined vision of what we wanted our home to be and Anthony and his team’s input was instrumental in making our dream a reality. This was an internal remodel that required extensive structural modifications such as addition of extra large view windows, cantilevered staircase, removal of walls, repositioning structural elements, building shear walls and reinforcement of the foundation. Basically MurphyMcKenna rebuilt the house from the inside. The reno also required fine carpentry and workmanship to carry out our interior design ideas like the slat ceiling, which turned out to be far more difficult and involved than anybody foresaw. The tolerances for the carpentry were very fine but their master carpenters succeeded beautifully, and in the end visitors comment on the ceiling as much as our view, which is stunning.
All this was carried out during the Pandemic when supply chain logistics and staffing were a constant source of potential chaos but MMC’s staff kept the project moving ahead. Communication was excellent and their commitment to maintaining the work flow kept us from despairing. Well not too much, LOL. The confidence boost and reduced stress from working with such professional builders was a huge plus. A side benefit was the MurphyMcKenna’s workers were popular with our neighbors despite the interruptions and inconvenience. We look forward to working with Anthony & Sean and the rest of the MMC team for the second – and hopefully final – phase of the renovation”.
—Doug W and Susan C, Clients
“After we designed our dream home on the Bay, we were faced with the daunting challenge of finding a contractor who had the technical expertise to complete our structural and foundation complexities (long, open spans to optimize the water view, an additional story requiring complete reinforcement of the existing foundation, and difficult easement requirements) and also the craftsmanship to provide highend finishes and stunning detail work throughout.
Our experience hiring MurphyMcKenna for our project has been nothing short of exceptional. Not only is the work impressive, but Anthony and his team have provided clear and timely communication on every aspect, and also seamlessly supported every small design change with ease. Most impressively, the project remained on schedule and on budget throughout, and our neighbors (inconvenienced, to say the least) have had nothing but accolades for the MurphyMcKenna crew and their work”.
Todd W, Client
“Thank you for the tremendous work you and your team did for us. We are thoroughly enjoying our new kitchen and bathrooms, especially now that it’s finally totally complete. Yes, Home Depot finally managed to deliver and install the range, so now our kitchen is fully functional. Everything turned out so well. I know we had some quirky wants like the powder room. Your team dealt with our wishes with total professionalism. They rose above the many challenges, including the confusing design issues and the delivery delays for so many items used in the project.
A special mention goes to Anthony Parrish. He was amazing to work with. He has the most “can-do” approach and identified countless potential problems in time to make changes and adjustments. He has a great attention to detail and even noticed issues with the original construction and finish out of our home. We were also able to address these mistakes, so all the work blended with the untouched areas of our home. Anthony is also incredibly friendly and a great communicator.
We would gladly provide a reference to anyone who wishes to speak with people who have used your company. And anyone who asks for building works, we will definitely provide them with your contact details. Thank you so much for helping create our spaces just the way we want them.”
