WE’RE GROWING — and looking for the right people to grow with us!

Clear Construction is excited to announce that we’re expanding our team and hiring for three key positions:

• Site Superintendent
• Project Manager
• Executive Assistant

We’ve worked hard to build Clear Construction around a simple belief: great construction starts with great people.

That means taking care of our clients, doing what we say we’re going to do, supporting our trade partners, and creating a culture where our team can succeed professionally without sacrificing what matters outside of work.

We’re not simply looking to fill positions. We’re looking for people who want to help us continue building the kind of construction company we believe this industry needs.

Interested candidates can submit their resume to [email protected]. If you know someone who would be a great fit for our team, please share this post or send them our way!

Another exciting fast-paced project is underway!

We're proud to partner with a doctor who is investing in a modern office remodel and state-of-the-art technology to better serve their patients. Our team is moving quickly to create a more efficient, ergonomic space while minimizing disruption so the practice can stay focused on delivering exceptional care.

Stay tuned as we bring this transformation to life!

Most people see a block wall. We see a strategic decision that can have a significant impact on a project's overall cost.

The photo shows a new 3-hour CMU fire separation wall currently under construction. Before moving forward with this approach, our team completed a cost analysis comparing the investment in a rated masonry wall versus the cost of installing a complete fire suppression system throughout the expanded building. After evaluating both options, the fire wall proved to be the most cost-effective solution for achieving the owner's expansion goals while maintaining code compliance.

This is where thoughtful preconstruction planning creates real value. Understanding code requirements early allows us to explore multiple paths, compare costs, and identify solutions that maximize usable space while minimizing unnecessary expenditures.

Sometimes the most valuable part of construction happens long before the first shovel hits the ground.

One of the most valuable tools we use during the design process isn't a drawing, a rendering, or even a budget—it's the opportunity for our clients to physically experience their future space before construction ever begins.

A huge thank you to Walk Your Plans of West Michigan for providing an incredible resource that allows our clients to walk through their proposed floor plans at full scale. This process allows our clients to truly experience their future space, helping ensure room sizes, workflow, and ergonomics align with their vision and daily operations.

At Clear Construction, we believe great projects are built long before construction starts. Investing time upfront to validate design decisions helps ensure the finished space not only looks great but performs exactly as intended.

A new home for Weaver Dentistry.

Congratulations to Weaver Dentistry on their beautiful new office in Grand Rapids. We were honored to build every part of it — reception lounge, treatment suites, and lab — with the care their patients deserve.

Huge thanks to the team that made it happen: Dixon Architecture for the architectural vision, Kyle Wheeler with The Doctors Agent (), and the talented Kathryn Chaplow Design () for the stunning interiors.

So proud of what we built together.
