The Challenge

Timelines are typically very tight for casual dining construction projects. Overlapping work with other trades on site also increases the complexity of these jobs. As the Whataburger contractor coordinated multiple site projects and simultaneous build tasks, they needed a framing and siding partner who was flexible, adaptable, fast and responsive.

Lumber One offered the seamless coordination and efficient crew management that would keep this multi-location project on track and meet an aggressive 90-day build goal.

Consultation

Lumber One is known for our consultative, hands-on approach. We worked closely with the contractor to provide detailed product submittals, including precisely engineered truss drawings and layout plans. We also tailored our approach to the unique demands of this construction project so we could deliver what was needed with maximum efficiency. Our strategies included:

Bundled framing and siding services: Simplifying logistics with a turnkey Nichia siding solution.
Timeline flexibility: Our crews were prepped and ready to adapt to the contractor’s evolving needs.
Streamlined coordination: One point of contact and detailed plans enabled streamlined communication and minimized downtime.
Dedicated crews: Lumber One teams were differentiated across each site to ensure steady progress.
On-site supervision: Every stage of the build was supervised for strict quality control.

Solution

Once the project was underway, we worked at a fast pace. We provided framing materials, trusses/I-Joist, fiber cement siding, and framing and siding labor, with an average framing and roofing timeline of just 10 to 14 days. Thanks to our efficient and organized crews, our work was consistently completed within two weeks. We met Whataburger’s high standards for quality and efficiency, adapting to challenges and delivering eight Whataburger locations on time and within budget.
