Thirteen responsibility fields across 4 researched companies associated with Wichita. Read the full evidence note: an advertised item can be a limited trade, optional package or handover of materials. It is not proof that every company takes the same kind of project or offers a finished-home contract.

The FAQ offers wood framing and a customer-selected steel alternative. Specify the actual system in the proposal.
The barndominium text alternates between wood frames and steel shells; the actual assembly is unresolved.
The barndominium offer does not specify the frame; a separate ICF offering does not settle it.
Wood columns/trusses; standard or flush framing.
Residential material offers plan/design support. Engineer-stamped plans are a separate condition in the warranty document, not assumed in every purchase.
Floor plans and structural-engineering integration are described in the general custom-home service.
Custom barndominium design is offered; sealed design and consultant scope remain unspecified.
Engineered custom design is offered.
Physical site preparation such as clearing, grading or excavation. Site selection, assessment and discussion alone do not establish execution responsibility.
The FAQ limits in-house excavation to smaller work its equipment can handle; larger sites require owner preparation or another excavator.
Land review/placement is discussed; excavation and grading responsibility are not assigned.
Excavation, grading and site-preparation responsibility are not itemized.
Site preparation and dirtwork are listed.
The concrete page offers foundations, slabs, reinforcement and associated preparation, including underslab insulation options.
The broader custom-home service describes establishing the foundation; confirm the barndominium contract.
The foundation installation scope is not itemized.
Foundation installation is listed.
The FAQ describes construction crews and subcontractor use for framing. Confirm the assigned team and responsibility in the agreement.
Frame/shell installation is described, despite the conflicting system labels.
The reviewed material does not assign shell-erection responsibility.
Building erection is listed.
Residential services name spray foam; the concrete page separately addresses underslab insulation and vapor barriers.
Roof/siding installation and air sealing are described.
Insulation and enclosure installation responsibility are not itemized.
Insulation installation or framing-only options.
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.
The FAQ describes subcontractor involvement in electrical and plumbing. HVAC and a complete installed-trade agreement remain unestablished.
Plumbing/electrical system routing is named. HVAC planning does not establish complete HVAC installation.
The general process discusses MEP options in meetings; installation responsibilities are not assigned.
HVAC, plumbing and electrical coordination; owner finish-out also offered.
Interior framing is advertised; responsibility for all subsequent residential finish work is not settled by the reviewed source set.
Residential rooms and tailored finishes are described; the exact finish schedule is not supplied.
The general home process includes flooring, counters, fixtures and finish selections; confirm the barndominium specification.
Coordinated interiors or an owner-finished shell.
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.
The FAQ allows owner-pulled permits or company handling for an added fee.
The reviewed material does not identify who submits or obtains permits.
Preconstruction readies the structure for permits but does not name the applicant.
Permits are within the stated handled scope.
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.
Electrical/plumbing subcontractor references do not allocate utility extensions, meters, water, sewer or onsite-wastewater connections.
Responsibility for external water, wastewater and power connections is not established.
Responsibility for external water, wastewater and power connections is not established.
External utility connections remain unspecified.
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.
The reviewed pages do not provide a full-home occupancy and acceptance checklist.
The general custom-home service describes a final walkthrough.
The general home process describes a feature walkthrough, documents and key handover.
Shell ready for sheetrock or broader finished package.
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.
No specific written workmanship coverage term was established in the reviewed pages.
A third-party builder warranty is mentioned without duration, issuer or exclusions.
No warranty term established.
The reviewed project-page footer lists an appointment-only Lee’s Summit office. This supports contact relevance, not proof of a completed KC residence.
Wichita, Valley Center and Derby are expressly named.
Wichita office and Kansas barndominium construction are explicitly advertised.
Andover base; South Central Kansas service.
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.
