about us

We are with you throughout the whole construction process. An architect of your choice is selected and we take the ‘quarterback’ position to make sure the ball gets taken to the goal. Each job has a new checking account opened, which can be viewed by you as a client whenever you wish. Everything is 110% transparent.

As architect for a very complicated addition for renovation of a major historic residence on the intracoastal in Fort Lauderdale, I was encouraged and relieved the owner agreed to commission W.A. Bentz for construction. The result was a completed renovation of the highest quality. The process during construction was efficient and professional. We highly recommend this firm.
