Homeowners worry about hidden costs, delays, and unreliable contractors. Here's how we address each concern directly.
The scope, allowances, exclusions, and payment schedule are documented before construction. If a concealed condition is discovered, it is photographed and reviewed with you before any additional work is authorized.
We provide a realistic timeline based on scope and permit requirements. If a delay occurs, you're told why and given an updated schedule — not excuses.
We inspect and document existing conditions during demolition. Hidden damage is photographed, reported, and addressed with your approval before we proceed.
We coordinate all trades and materials. You deal with one accountable contractor, not a list of subcontractors you have to chase.
We use dust barriers, floor protection, and daily cleanup. Work areas are contained, and your living space is respected throughout the project.
We handle permit applications and inspection scheduling where required. You don't deal with the bureaucracy — we do.
We focus on the projects that matter most to local homeowners — with clear scopes and realistic timelines.

I'm Serhii, the owner of Build Dog Construction. I started in the field doing hands-on construction work — framing, tile, drywall, and plumbing — before moving into managing complete remodeling projects.
Since 2022, we've helped homeowners across Montgomery County and Washington, DC remodel their bathrooms, kitchens, and basements. I started this company because too many homeowners get burned by unclear scopes, surprise costs, and contractors who disappear mid-project.
My approach is straightforward: document the scope before we start, communicate consistently, protect your home during construction, and stand behind the work. When you hire Build Dog, you work with one accountable contractor — not a rotating cast of subcontractors you can't reach.
Real feedback from real projects across the DMV.
"Serhii and his team transformed our outdated kitchen. The scope was clear from the start, the timeline was honest, and the work was clean. No surprises on price."
"Finding a reliable contractor in DC is hard. Build Dog finished our basement on time, handled the permits, and kept the job site clean. Honest work."
"The tile work in our master bath is excellent. They documented everything, communicated well, and the final walkthrough was thorough. Worth every dollar."
Straight answers about cost, process, and what to expect.
Proudly serving homeowners across Maryland and Washington, DC.
