The Concierge Difference

The Old Way

  • Coordinate ten separate vendors across multiple markets
  • Design delays, financing rejections, permitting surprises
  • No single point of accountability when things go wrong
  • Franchisees overwhelmed, franchisors burdened

Our Story

How Skyward Got Started

I spent years in banking and commercial lending — financing construction projects, underwriting deals, watching how money moved through a build. And I kept seeing the same thing: talented tradespeople being let down by poor financial management and broken communication.

So I built a construction company the way a banker would — with financial discipline at the core, transparent budgets, and a relentless focus on delivering what we promise. Together with my partners — over 60 years of combined commercial real estate and construction experience — the vision was simple: become the most trusted partner in commercial construction.

“Every project should leave people in a better position than where they started.”

— Andre Bailey, Owner / Partner

Our Operating Principles

The 3 T’s

T

Trust

We do what we said we’d do — period. Trust isn’t earned in a speech.

T

Transparency

Cost-plus pricing. Itemized budgets. We operate in a glass box, not a black one.

T

Timeliness

Every day on a construction schedule is a day of revenue our client isn’t earning.
