Company Overview & Approach

There’s a better way to design and build a project
— but most people don’t know it exists.

Company Overview

Most people planning a project assume their only path to a successful outcome is to hire an architect with consultants and a general contractor with subcontractors and hope for the best. But the traditional model, often with misaligned goals, can leave project owners exposed to designs that don’t meet their needs, cost overruns, quality deficiencies, change orders, and extended project completion dates.

For 50 years, Sandpebble has been showing there’s a smarter, much more effective approach. As an Owner’s Representative and Project Manager, we work solely on your behalf — from concept to completion — using our extensive experience to enable you to remain in control of the outcome of your project.

We don’t swing hammers or draw blueprints. We protect your vision, your timeline, and your bottom line.

We are not general contractors. We are not architects.
We are your partner, advocate, and advisor.

Regardless of what you call it, the result of our approach is the same: clarity, control, and no surprises.

Our Approach

If you’ve never heard of Sandpebble’s model, you’re not alone.

Most Project Owners don’t know our kind of service exists — until they find themselves over budget, behind schedule, and overwhelmed.

We believe you deserve better.

Sandpebble offers an alternative to the traditional design and construction model.
Where may project participants work on a percentage of a project’s costs, we work on a fixed fee. That means our only loyalty is to you.

We help you

. . . develop your vision and scope from the start.

. . . select and oversee architects, engineers, and contractors.

. . . manage permits, bidding, compliance, vendor coordination, and day-to-day supervision.

. . . avoid unnecessary risks, surprises, and delays.

A check I was happy to sign..

….it was a pleasure to sign the checks payable to Sandpebble….this project couldn’t have been done better or easier.

I’m at a loss for words..

I’m at a loss for words to succinctly describe almost two decades of our history. Over multiple projects spanning nearly twenty years, ranging from building reviews, HVAC projects, renovations, and new construction, Sandpebble has been an invaluable partner along every step of the journey. Truly defining preconstruction services, including facilitating community charettes, budget planning, architect evaluations, and constituent communications, I wouldn’t consider beginning any construction project without adding them to the team at day one. Sandpebble = a value-add to every project.

A truly exceptional partner..

Sandpebble Project Management did an exceptional job with project management on the recently completed renovation of two areas of the West Islip Public Library. Their expertise was critical to the success of the project. They were involved in all aspects of the project, from its initial planning, the selection of the architect and MEP engineers, the organization of plans and specifications, the bidding and RFP process, and in the coordination and supervision of the various contractors. They were proactive in anticipating and solving problems, and their communication, both with the library and the various parties involved with the project, was first rate. I was very happy with the entire process and would use them again in a heartbeat.

Sandpebble’s talented team guided us through..

Sandpebble’s talented team guided us through the myriad decisions that needed to be made and they were always responsive to our inquiries, which allowed the Board of Trustees to make fully informed decisions. Sandpebble oversaw the entire project and ensured that all work was completed professionally, in accordance with the Village’s specifications, and ahead of schedule. Their knowledge and advice were invaluable, as was the preconstruction sequencing of the project they provided…I recommend Sandpebble to you without reservation.

They made sure that we met all requirements..

The cost per square foot is consistent with other municipal project costs. And the hiring of Sandpebble as construction manager pretty much ensures that the project will be completed at or under budget.

Sandpebble was an integral component in the success..

Sandpebble was an integral component in the success of the passing of our referendum for a much needed new fire house at a time when bond issues were not being passed. It’s Sandpebble’s experience, foresight and client service that will undoubtedly yield a great project for many years to come.

How Sandpebble saved us millions..

I made a strategic decision to go with an owner’s rep (Sandpebble) instead of bidding it out (to a GC). It was the smartest thing I ever did. These guys have saved me millions, the architects like their work notwithstanding their value engineering and we are still one big happy on budget family as the project nears completion.

The impossible happened..

This would be the only project in the county in the last 20 years that was under budget.

A Modern Alternative to Traditional

Our Model Delivers Superior Results

Traditional Model
Owner’s Rep (Sandpebble)

Percent-Based Fee

Your final cost can be inflated by a GC taking a percentage of the project’s price tag.

Too Little, Too Late

They’re often not brought in until the architect’s hired, forcing them to work within a design and project.

Conflict of Interest

A GC or CM is focused on growing
their margins—not acting as an
advocate on your behalf.

Fixed Fee

Our fee remains the same throughout the project, ensuring cost predictability for your entire scope

Vision-First Advising

We’re involved from the start to guide your project, select vendors, and avoid problems before the build even begins.

Your Best Interests

We act as an extension of your team-driving decisions that prioritize your vision and your budget.
