Our Process

At W.L. Kelly & Associates, we believe a successful construction project begins well before the first shovel hits the ground. Our role as a Construction Management Agency is to provide structure, clarity, and client-first advocacy at every step ensuring your project is well-planned, financially sound, and executed with precision.

What Makes Us Different:

Unlike traditional general contractors who manage both construction and their own profit margins, we work strictly on your behalf.

As your Construction Manager, we act as your advisor and representative from concept to completion without performing the construction ourselves.

What is a Construction Management Agency Relationship?

A Construction Management (CM) Agency Relationship is a fee-based professional arrangement where we represent the owner’s interests during the planning, design, and construction phases. We do not profit from subcontractor markups or material costs. Instead, we focus entirely on ensuring you get the best results, at the right price, with complete transparency.

Why This Model Works Nationwide

While based in Westchester County, our client-first agency model serves homeowners, investors, and developers across the United States delivering the same consistent value anywhere in the country.

Client Benefits Include:

Unlike other General Contractors who may be looking out for their own bottom line, W.L. Kelly & Associates simply looks out for yours.

Building Trust. Delivering Excellence.

For over 40 years, W.L. Kelly & Associates Inc. has been shaping homes and spaces with unmatched craftsmanship, integrity, and care.
