Today on “The Building Code”, Charley sits down in studio with two of the best in the business: Brad Leavitt of AFT Construction and Tim Coughran of Alderview Construction.

 

Brad and Tim pull back the curtain on how they went from lone-wolf contractors to respected leaders of systemized, scalable construction companies. From In-N-Out-inspired SOPs to onboarding processes that rival luxury brands, they share practical strategies for building smarter – not harder.

 

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why custom homes still need standard systems
  • How to use Buildertrend features like daily logs and QR-coded change orders to streamline jobs
  • What real leadership looks like in growing your team and retaining talent
  • Why your business needs to be a career path, not a stepping stone

 

Whether you're hiring your first office manager or juggling million-dollar builds, this episode will show you the power of process-driven growth.
