What believers are saying
- Engineers practice installation: DEW's August 2026 training announcement describes project engineers fitting windows, weather barriers and flashing.
- Field advancement has precedent: DEW's Vermont general superintendent progressed from carpenter's helper through carpenter, foreman and superintendent roles.
- DEW considers equivalent experience instead of degrees for Manchester's full-time quality-control role, requiring 5-7 quality-control years or requisite field experience.
What critics are saying
- Experienced entry only: DEW's full-time Manchester field carpenters need construction experience and an exceptional safety record.
- Travel remains required: DEW's full-time Manchester preconstruction managers must travel occasionally.
- Qualified subcontractors underpin delivery: DEW requires initial assessments and annual requalification to meet client, insurer and bonding-company requirements.
What makes DEW Construction unique
- DEW connects field imagery with planning: its construction toolkit includes live webcams, drone photography and three-dimensional scanning.
- Funding extends beyond bank loans: DEW Properties pursues community-development tax credits for qualifying projects.
- DEW combines construction and accounting records: office and field teams use integrated project-management and accounting software.
