Eight western states, one traveling crew model

Stalcup Construction is licensed to build in the western states and works in all of them. Crews mobilize out of Central Oregon and stay on site through the job rather than commuting to it, which is why a project in Utah or Alaska runs the same way as one an hour from the shop.

In short

Crews mobilize and stay.

Stalcup Construction is licensed to build in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah and Alaska, with Arizona in process. Crews mobilize out of Central Oregon and stay on site until the work is finished, rather than commuting to it.

Both services travel: cold-formed steel framing and pre-engineered metal building erection, in every state. Stalcup has run work in five of its states inside a single year.

How a traveling crew actually works

One shop, eight states.

It is the first question a general contractor asks and it deserves a straight answer.

Our crews mobilize to the project and stay there. They do not commute. On an out-of-state job the crew arrives, works the scope through, and goes home when the work is done rather than at the end of each shift. That gives a project continuous coverage instead of a crew that loses an hour at each end of the day, and it means weather windows and schedule pushes get absorbed by people who are already on site.

The leads are the part that matters most. Veterans who have run jobs of this size come back per project, so an unfamiliar state does not mean an unfamiliar crew. Crews scale to the work in front of them rather than the scope being trimmed to fit whoever happens to be available.

It costs something, and we would rather say so. Travel and per diem are line items on an out-of-state job, which is why there is a practical floor of around $50,000 once crews are traveling. Below that, mobilizing costs more than the work is worth and we will tell you so. Above it, the model is why a contractor in Montana gets the same crew that a contractor in Washington gets.

Both services, in every state

Coverage is not partial here.

Framing

Cold-formed steel framing

Load-bearing and non-load-bearing steel stud framing, by our own in-house crews in every state we hold a license. The framing scope you get in Montana is the one you get in Oregon.

Erection

PEMB steel buildings

Clear-span pre-engineered metal buildings, erected by the same traveling crews. Storage facilities, warehouses, hangars and shops, anywhere we hold a license. The crew that shows up is the crew we hired.

Getting to a number on an out-of-state project

Four things get a real price back quickly.

The drawing set

Or whatever exists of it. A partial set is fine and an early feasibility conversation costs nothing.

The site location

Travel and per diem are part of the number rather than hidden in it, so where the project sits changes the price.

The schedule window

And whether it is fixed or has room in it. If there is a hard date we will tell you honestly whether we can hit it.

The scope

Framing only, erection only, or both. If we are bidding as a subcontractor, tell us who the general contractor is and which system the job runs in. If you are the owner and hiring direct, say so, because that changes what we are quoting.

Frequently asked questions

Three about coverage.

What states is Stalcup licensed in?
Stalcup Construction is licensed to build in seven states today: Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah and Alaska. An Arizona contractor license is in process and that state is not yet open to us, though we hold a business license there already. Licenses are verifiable through each state's contractor board under the company name, which is the check a general contractor should be running on any sub regardless of what a website says.
Do you charge more for out-of-state work?
Travel and per diem are line items on a traveled job, so an out-of-state project carries costs that a local one does not. We put them in the number rather than burying them. The practical effect is a floor of around $50,000: below that, mobilizing a crew to another state is a bigger share of the job than the work itself. Above it, distance stops mattering much, because the crew is on site either way.
How quickly can crews mobilize to another state?
It depends on two things: what is already running, and the lead time on materials for your project. Steel delivery often sets the schedule more than crew availability does. Rather than quote a response time we will not always hit, we would rather look at your schedule and tell you honestly whether we can meet it. If we cannot, we will say so early enough for you to go elsewhere.
