This book, written by a builder who came up through the trades himself -- and who for decades has run a highly respected and successful construction operation that does both remodeling and new construction -- helps to demystify the day-to-day challenges that contractors face. Running a Successful Construction Company is acknowledged as the leading book in its field. Includes 50 color photos and drawings. Review: A MUST READ FOR THE AVERAGE BUILDER....WHO IS STRUGGLING. - I'm an ordinary small time carpenter/ builder. I've found this book is helping me already and I'm only half way through it. I'm pretty lucky to have found this book. If you are like me and struggling to keep your head above water this will teach you what needs to be done to get your business running efficiently, less loses on underquoting as your pricing of jobs becomes more accurate due to historcal records you use from previous jobs , also giving you more free time away from being snowed under with the amount of time working out quotations. Oh, and a stack more information that is required knowledge. Highly recommend this book....but its up to you to study it and put the hard effort into following what he has recommended to do !. Ps, like alot of other reviewers have quotated...."wish I had this book years ago." Review: A Really Great Book - I bought two books regarding running a successful construction company, and this one is by far more informative and as detailed as it can be for a general overview. It also refers you to other books that concentrate on specific topics. This is a really great book. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #195,194 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #178 in Record Books | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 322 Reviews | ## Images ![Running a Successful Construction Company: Practical handbook on estimating, scheduling, and leading a profitable construction firm. - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71DC8wZTQzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A MUST READ FOR THE AVERAGE BUILDER....WHO IS STRUGGLING. *by P***S on June 3, 2013* I'm an ordinary small time carpenter/ builder.

Ps, like alot of other reviewers have quotated...."wish I had this book years ago." ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Really Great Book *by R***L on August 28, 2014* I bought two books regarding running a successful construction company, and this one is by far more informative and as detailed as it can be for a general overview. It also refers you to other books that concentrate on specific topics. This is a really great book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent if its what you wanted *by C***4 on June 26, 2013* I had to get this book for a college course. However, if I were to purchase this book for my own personal education, I would not have bought it. The author does a great job of explaining how to run and operate a residential home construction company, that does about $800,000 worth of new home sales in a year. It does a great job of covering every subject involved in running a residential home construction company, with some great sidebars involving the authors own experiences. ## Frequently Bought Together - Running a Successful Construction Company (For Pros, by Pros) - Nail Your Numbers: A Path to Skilled Construction Estimating and Bidding - Markup & Profit: A Contractor's Guide, Revisited --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/2213883-running-a-successful-construction-company-practical-handbook-on-estimating-scheduling](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/2213883-running-a-successful-construction-company-practical-handbook-on-estimating-scheduling) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-06-22*
