A row counts company statements, not full-home inclusions or capabilities. Mechanical-trade evidence may name one trade. Handoff describes the endpoint for that business role. Each row totals the selected sample size.

Open the source-level comparison.

01 / Structural system
02 / Design and engineering
03 / Site preparation

Physical site preparation such as clearing, grading or excavation. Site selection, assessment and discussion alone do not establish execution responsibility.

04 / Foundation and concrete
05 / Shell erection
06 / Insulation and enclosure
07 / Mechanical trades

The company explicitly describes installation or coordination of at least one named HVAC, electrical or plumbing trade. Name the supported trade and stage in the text. Drawings alone or an optional heating feature with no installation responsibility do not establish this field.

K-Construction ↗

Not established

Mechanical systems and trade partners are mentioned generically; individual MEP installation roles are not named.

Santee Steel Inc. ↗

Not established

Electrical, plumbing and HVAC appear under farm infrastructure; residential installation responsibilities remain unclear.

08 / Interior finishes
09 / Permit coordination

Responsibility for applying, submitting or obtaining permits. Supplying drawings or offering general guidance alone does not establish that responsibility. A stated owner/independent-GC applicant is an express exclusion from this company's application role. An explicit statement that the company handles permitting qualifies; an unnamed legal applicant is then a contract question.

10 / Utility connections

Physical work on permanent service routes or connections, with the supported portion named. Temporary construction power or water alone does not establish permanent utility responsibility.

11 / Completion and handoff

An explicit delivered endpoint or handover appropriate to this company's business role: documents, supplied materials, constructed shell or finished home. A positive status does not imply occupancy-ready delivery. State the actual endpoint. Generic completion language without a defined deliverable or handover remains unresolved.

12 / Warranty terms

An advertised duration and identified covered work or component, with limits retained. A generic assurance or unexplained duration without identifiable coverage does not establish terms; a positive status is not verification of the complete warranty contract.

The PDF provides limited structural labor terms, excludes listed components and events, restricts coverage to the original purchaser, and conditions design coverage on purchased stamped plans.

13 / Geographic fit

The reviewed project-page footer lists an appointment-only Lee’s Summit office. This supports contact relevance, not proof of a completed KC residence.

Use the record as a question for the proposal.

Advertised means a source expressly names a responsibility or deliverable. Expressly excluded requires a clear exclusion; varies requires an identified option or scope difference. Not established means the reviewed sources leave the question unsettled. It does not mean the company cannot do the work. Broad full-home language does not fill individual responsibility fields.

The sample is selected, not a local census. One company may appear in several markets and has one shared record. Geographic evidence may be a local base, named service area, project or broad state claim; the market page preserves that distinction. A company page does not establish independent project verification, a license, insurance, current availability or acceptance of the reader’s parcel.

Sources are company-controlled and may be uneven in detail or accessible only through a cached reader. Review dates are not service-change dates. These disclosure counts do not refresh Google inputs, registry records or any historical KC score. Read the cross-market method and counts, ranking method and full downloadable evidence.
