Bringing 30 years of skill and experience to a new partnership, where intellect embraces instinct and goodwill is matched by good judgement.
Where site supervisors and project managers work as a team, building relationships with solid craftsmanship and optimized schedules.
Where 21st century techniques and technology define our projects and our operations and the redwood highway stretches to the bay — and beyond.
With a 20 year age difference between them, Gigi Gozzer and Neil Whitehouse have developed WLG into a business of transparency that connects their generational gap with a spark in the construction industry. When leadership is shared between an industry veteran and a talented millennial it provides a relatability to both our clients and our staff.
Together, Neil Whitehouse and Gigi Gozzer share a breadth of construction experience on both residential and commercial projects. At WLG, they have hired a team of great people, both in the office and the field, who work with reliable subcontractors and vendors.
Neil Whitehouse began his career in construction as an estate manager for English Nature, an organization dedicated to the preservation of Britain’s historic estates. In the early 1990s he moved to the Bay Area and worked for a residential construction firm as a site supervisor where he managed projects of significant scope, $10 million or more.
In the 2000s Neil started his own full-service construction company, Whitehouse Builders of Berkeley. After the 2008 recession, Neil narrowed the focus from a full-service construction company to a construction management practice, running Whitehouse Project Management until 2015. In this capacity, Neil worked alongside, Gigi Gozzer on many residential projects and in late 2016, they decided to form a business partnership and founded WLG Construction.
Before WLG, Gigi Gozzer gained experience managing construction projects for multiple clients in the Bay Area. At WLG, she is responsible for the complete project delivery process from bid through constructions to final handoff to the client.
Our founders have leveraged decades of industry experience in construction project management and site supervision to start WLG. We have endorsed this team approach for our business model because it is essential to maintain high standards for our clients.
Our project delivery team offers our clients not only rigorous systems that enable project management efficiency, but also two WLG experienced staff members that are accountable to your project and that it stays on schedule, on budget and built to your expectations.
THE PROJECT DELIVERY TEAM
The site supervisor manages the day-to-day operations of the project and the multiple subcontractor relationships, as well as the quality of the work and safety of the site.
While the project manager oversees the contract budget, schedules, RFIs and purchase orders as well as competitive bids from subcontractors. This project delivery team communicates daily and has a scheduled weekly status meeting to set goals for the next week to secure a high level of service to our clients.
TECHNOLOGY & COMMUNICATION
WLG, we are defined by our forward thinking and 21st century technology.
WLG has invested in technology and cloud-based software to create a more efficient office environment. By introducing a start-up mentality and a flat company structure we yield tremendous value and profitability in what we build, while keeping our principals close to our projects and our day-to-day operations.
We utilize efficient processes to support real-time communication between the field and the front office through phones, tablets and various applications that keep communication lines constant whether on the job site or at headquarters.
