Professional Services Agreement  (PSA)

JJH Construction partners up with the best Architects, Engineers and Designers in San Diego in order to provide in-house design services the client's project needs. This Professional Services Agreement runs in parallel with our Pre-Construction due diligence and estimating to ensure the design does not go over the client's budget.

Surprisingly, many projects end up facing an early budgetary constraint when the creative design creates a $2.5 Million project for a $1 Million budget. By the time that is discovered,  it is too late and the time and money has already been spent. The PSA helps us to eliminate the guesswork from a Construction project. PSA involves, but not limited to, the following services:

  • digging out a footing to check for compatibility
  • checking and mapping electrical wiring
  • defining each line item trade to have a clear scope of work for subcontractors
  • preconstruction calendars and critical path Gantt charts
  • costing of finishes
  • working with clients to educate them on the difference in prices for the same designs on the same projects (for example why is one cabinet bid $7500 and the other $14500?)
  • defining construction terms
  • defining the level of customer involvement
  • defining the levels of service
  • defining what is included and what is excluded throughout the project

The above Pre-Construction services are essential to know whether this project is feasible to start construction.


Imagine a professional team assembled through a couple of casual meet-ups and the signing of a contract. With nothing but a brief discussion of strategies and no time spent on training. How prepared can they be for the match?

  • Think of the PSA as your roadmap to a smoother project—it not only gives you the essential details and clarifies the work ahead but also sets the stage for effective teamwork before the contract is inked and construction kicks off. It’s important to note that JJH Inc. does not bind you with any PSA or Design-Build contract that commits you to proceed to the construction phase with us.
  • Consider this: relying on free bids in construction is like buying a car without knowing its price or features. It’s a gamble where you end up with vague contracts and unclear scopes of work. By choosing a more transparent approach, you ensure you know exactly what you’re paying for and what’s included. Don’t fall for the illusion of "free"—make a smarter investment by opting for clear, detailed proposals.

At JJH Construction Inc., we don’t just take on any project—we choose the right ones with clients who value excellence. We strive to deliver a construction experience where your vision is realized seamlessly and professionally. Discover what it feels like to truly enjoy the construction process with us, where every detail is crafted to perfection. Let’s make your next project exceptional together.
