Completed Indianapolis home interior after major rebuild and finish work

Select Projects • Fully Insured

New-Home Construction Starts With A Clear Scope

Q: Is Barco licensed and insured?

Barco is fully insured and does not advertise a general-contractor license. Licensing and permit requirements depend on the exact project scope, so any required licensed specialty trades and permit responsibilities are identified before larger construction work begins.

Q: Can I request proof of insurance?

Yes. Ask for a current certificate of insurance while reviewing your estimate so the documentation is clear before work begins.

Q: Does Barco build new homes?

Yes. Barco takes on select new-home construction projects in addition to its core painting work. The first step is a project conversation to review the location, plans, timeline, construction scope, and which parties will be responsible for permits and licensed specialty work.

Q: What should be included in my written proposal?

The proposal should define the work Barco will perform, preparation and materials, exclusions, payment schedule, expected timing, change-order process, cleanup, and—when applicable—permit and licensed-trade responsibilities.

Barco is painting-first and also takes on select new-home builds in the Indianapolis area. Before a project moves forward, the plans, responsibilities, insurance, permits, licensed trades, schedule, and change process are discussed in writing.

Project-Fit Review

Four Decisions Before Construction Begins

A new home involves more coordination than a painting project. Barco begins by making the working relationship, responsibilities, and project boundaries easy to understand.

Review The Project

Start with the property location, plans, site status, target schedule, budget range, and the construction scope you need help delivering.

Define Responsibilities

The written scope identifies Barco's work, customer responsibilities, exclusions, permit responsibility, and any licensed specialty trades the project requires.

Confirm The Fit

Because Barco accepts select new-home projects, the review must confirm that the location, schedule, scope, and coordination needs are a responsible fit.

Build From A Clear Plan

Approved projects move forward with documented milestones, payment expectations, change-order handling, site communication, and finish decisions.

What To Bring

A Better First Conversation Produces A Better Scope

You do not need every answer before reaching out, but these details help Barco decide whether the project is a fit and what must happen next.

Property address and current site status
Available plans, drawings, or inspiration
Target budget range and desired timeline
Known permit, utility, or site constraints
Decisions already made about major finishes
Any other contractors or trade partners already involved
