  • Union Grove Lumber

    Union Grove, NC Union Grove Lumber Union Grove, NC To bring their new headquarters to life, Union Grove Lumber hired G.L. Wilson Building Company to coordinate this intensive renovation project. Adding unique interior and exterior design elements, including a sawdust-filled feature wall, the space now houses a full kitchen, large conference spaces, offices, a children’s playroom, and a receiving lobby. Design/Build by G.L. Wilson Building Company. “Our project began with a building that originated in 1985 and had not seen any updates in 37 years. Designers and engineers were first on site to analyze the ‘situation at hand’- after many brainstorming sessions and analyzing what we wanted vs. what was reality, we confirmed a plan of action. This was a HUGE project for us, and G.L. Wilson understood that and accommodated many meetings and visionary discussions. Once ‘the ground broke’ on our project, the project manager and the site manager kept us updated each step of the way. They welcomed our many visits and ensured that our process was smooth. As with any remodel, hiccups were experienced but were swiftly ironed out to keep the project flowing. Relationships are key with any construction project; we fully trusted the entire G.L. Wilson team. Our company’s motto is “On Target from Start to Finish” – perhaps G.L. Wilson should adopt that motto because it was our experience with them. Our building (inside and out) is gorgeous. Job well done.” Erica Goodnight / Union Grove Lumber / CEO & President

  • Design/Build Difference | GLWBCO

    THE G.L. WILSON DIFFERENCE In-House Design, Engineering, and Self-Performance in the Field OUR DESIGN/BUILD PROCESS Design, Engineering, and Construction Management. One Company, One Team, One Vision. One of the major benefits of having G.L. Wilson’s design, estimating, and project management teams all working together in-house is the constant communication and coordination throughout each phase of a project. As soon as a schematic design is developed, our engineers, designers, estimators, and project managers begin collaborating to deliver the highest-quality product for our clients. As the design team begins developing building design and civil engineering, they regularly consult with the estimating and project management teams to ensure to ensure a high quality and cost-effective design meeting the customer's goals and expectations. At each stage, every department is given the opportunity to provide input and share their expertise to support well-informed decisions. During the preconstruction phase, cost estimates are developed at key milestones and presented alongside progress drawings for the client’s review and feedback. Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Schematic Design / Budget Development Deliverables at this stage include: A high-level floor plan and site layout are established. A preliminary budget is created using historical cost data and current market conditions. Once the schematic design and budget are approved by the client, the project proceeds to the preliminary design phases. Building Design Civil/Site Plan Design Cost Estimate Deliverables at this stage include: A finalized floor plan that meets the owner’s requirements. Defined exterior elevations with general notes on materials and finishes. Preliminary Civil Drawings Featuring: Accurate placement of site components such as buildings, driveways, parking areas, and stormwater ponds. A basic stormwater review to determine preliminary requirements. Utility connection points and estimated utility line quantities. A preliminary estimate is then prepared, offering a more detailed cost analysis than the schematic budget. If the client is satisfied with the design and estimate, the project moves forward to final design. If adjustments are needed, G.L. Wilson revises the plans or applies value engineering as directed. This phase typically includes multiple coordination meetings with the client. Permit Drawings Final Estimate Preparation of full permit-ready construction documents, including: Architectural plans Civil drawings PME and fire sprinkler systems Structural and Pre-Engineered Metal Building (PEMB) details Development of the final contract estimate The Next Step: Construction The Ability to Self-Perform G.L. Wilson prides itself on being able to self-perform significant portions of many projects by maintaining a fleet of company-owned heavy equipment and through the work of our crews of experienced foremen, laborers, and equipment operators.
