Construction Capabilities
LBM Construction’s expertise encompasses a wide range of building needs, from new construction,
Re-Roofs to existing renovations to industrial plant work.
Turn-Key New Construction Projects
From site selection, analysis and financing, to engineering plans, blue prints, approval processes and
actual execution, LBM Construction offers a full complement of services for “turn-key” construction
projects with budgets up to $15 million dollars.
Design-Build Construction Projects
The hallmark of LBM Construction is its extensive design-build construction experience. The rapid
growth of design-build construction projects has its foundation in sophisticated computer aided
drafting and design tools that enable qualified architects and engineers to create floor plans and
estimates in half the time and cost of traditional approaches.
LBM Construction’s building designers use the latest AutoCAD program versions to generate
building specifications and estimates. All design-build projects are then reviewed, embellished and
approved by outside licensed architects and third party professional engineers.
Design-build construction’s increased popularity has been enhanced by business professionals whose
engagement in the development process brings personal satisfaction in seeing their company’s vision
being built while keeping an eye on practical time and budget considerations.
Conventional New Building Construction
When a conventional or architecturally-rendered design is preferred, LBM Construction works
closely with the chosen architects and the client to ensure that the integrity of the design elements are
respected, while ensuring that appropriate and cost effective materials and methods are employed.
LBM Construction has forged partnerships with a number of highly skilled architectural and
engineering firms in the Western New York community.
Butler (TM) Pre-Engineered Building Systems
Whether the construction approach is design-build or architecturally-rendered, LBM Construction
has the expertise to incorporate a vast array of Butler ™ pre-engineered building systems into every
phase of construction, from the structural steel, exterior panels, and roofing to details such as
flashings, gutters and downspouts.
The Myers’ relationship with Butler Manufacturing dates more than 41 years. Butler is the most
widely recognized and respected quality brand of versatile pre-engineered building systems in the
industry and World today.
Existing Building Renovations
If the best solution is to renovate an existing facility, LBM Construction ensures high quality
integration of structural, architectural and aesthetic components, while maintaining a safe work
environment that minimizes disruptions during construction.
New Interior Offices or Renovations
Today’s high tech office environment demands sophisticated solutions. LBM Construction’s stateof-the-art CAD design tools and understanding of interior construction materials and methods
together create quality work environments for demanding professionals.
Office and Industrial Park Developments
The Upstate New York business community has experienced a steady increase in the number of
professional office and industrial parks, thanks in large part to the growth of service sector
professionals, the commercialization of scientific research from major universities, and to shifting
economic emphasis on light manufacturing, recreational facilities and service industries.
LBM Construction has worked closely with several developers, landowners and entrepreneurs to
plan and build office and industrial park developments. The general contractor’s key expertise
includes an understanding of building codes and regulations in each municipality, environmental
impact studies and implications, as well as accessibility and functionality.
Property/Site Analysis
LBM Construction has gained a reputation for excellence in its ability to locate and analyze property
for proposed new construction. Thorough site analysis is essential to ascertain whether or not it is
feasible to construct a building on a given property. The firm conducts subsoil base analyses to
determine the amounts of clay, sand, silty loam or wetlands present, feasibility studies for
foundations, transportation access, engineering requirements to alter pitch and grade, and helps
determine “built costs” versus “land costs” for our new construction projects and clients.
Butler MR-24 / VSR Re-Roofing
Since 1969, the Butler MR-24 Roof System has been installed over 2.5 billion square feet of
buildings. The MR-24 roof is specified 3:1 more than any other standing seam roof by owners,
architects and engineers for use on new facilities or existing ones. With the advent of a well thought
out and detailed approach of re-roofing existing structures, the MR-24 standing seam and VSR roof
are the first choices in the industry to permanently solve the age old problem of leaky roofs on
conventionally built structures or even other inferior pre-engineered metal building systems.
Butler’s unique slope built-up system allows you to cover right over an existing flat roof, in most
cases without having to disturb the environment below. Butler’s painted VSR roof is a prime
solution for leaky roofs and offers an aesthetic architectural appearance with long-term proven
performance. A non-prorated 25-year warranty is also included with this roofing system. You’ll
begin to save immediately on maintenance costs. And additional insulation can be added to help you
save even more on energy costs.
We have collectively installed more than two million square feet of Butler’s MR-24 / VSR Roof
System in the Western New York area with exceptional results. The original warranties have
outlived themselves and the roofs are still going strong.
