Our Services

The design-build/ design-assist process revolves around a collaborative approach between the owner, general contractor, design team, and our experienced team. We identify challenges, devise solutions, and find ways to save time and reduce costs. By getting involved early, A.O. Reed can ensure the highest quality mechanical systems and installations are in place.

Assessing a project’s HVAC and plumbing systems is at the heart of our process. We use our experience and background knowledge to provide HVAC and plumbing system evaluations. We ask questions at the onset to reduce costs down the road. This process gives A.O. Reed a competitive edge in the industry.
