At Buckhead Construction Company, we believe everyone deserves to have a comfortable, beautiful place to worship, which is why we offer church construction services. In many ways, building a new church is like building a new home or office building, but there are also some important distinctions. To help you know what to expect from the church construction process, we have put together this article to provide more information.
- Planning – Like all construction projects, church construction starts with planning. Our team will discuss your goals for the project with you, then use your input to draw up designs for the project. We can include not just the church building itself, but also administrative buildings, classrooms, community spaces, and more. You can count on us to work with you to create a church campus that serves the needs of your faith community.
- Fundraising – In our experience, an area where church construction efforts can differ from other types of projects is in how the projects are funded. Most home and business owners take out loans to finance their projects, then pay those loans back over a period of years. Some church leaders are reluctant to take this approach, preferring to raise the money up front as much as possible. Our team has worked with many church leaders in the past, and we will help you work out a financial arrangement that allows you to complete the project on a reasonable timeline while also respecting your values.
- Specialized Labor – Lastly, church construction often calls for more specialized skills than other kinds of construction. For example, most churches need speaker systems in order to make sure the church leader can be heard clearly throughout the sanctuary, while private homes generally do not. Constructing architectural elements such as steeples or domes can also be challenging, as can installing stained glass windows, but fortunately, our team has the right experience to deliver excellent results on all these endeavors.
