Does Brandon's Perm Matter?

Good, Better, Best

The three levels of offerings often cited in building and other sales processes can offer useful comparative analysis for buyers looking to make an informed decision. Unfortunately, there is an implied but unspoken statement that “Good” is adequate and the others are unnecessary upgrades. Should we abandon GBB?

Modesty: Asset or Liability

It’s always good to listen before you speak, learn what you can from others and maintain humility as we move through the world. That said, can you defer too much or spend too much time communicating praise of others when you should be positioning yourself as the valued expert? Sometimes we need a confident take-charge general in pursuit of productivity.  Find Travis & Brandon on the Web Travis’ Build Show Videos: https://buildshownetwork.com/go/travisbrungardt Travis’ Instagram: @catalystbuilt Travis’ Website: https://www.catalystbuilt.com/ Brandon’s Instagram: @bbuildsit Brandon's Website: https://www.aarowbuilding.com/projects/gilman Don't miss a single episode of Build Show content.

Gratuitous Contracting

While many of us in renovation have received a little holiday treat or something extra it's definitely not the norm, day in and day out.

Does Brandon's Perm Matter?

Brandon enjoys upsetting Travis enough that he's once again brought up vapor. The permeance of materials in our assemblies does matter, but just how much is up for some debate.  Find Travis & Brandon on the Web Travis’ Build Show Videos: https://buildshownetwork.com/go/travisbrungardt Travis’ Instagram: @catalystbuilt Travis’ Website: https://www.catalystbuilt.com/ Brandon’s Instagram: @bbuildsit Brandon's Website: https://www.aarowbuilding.com/projects/gilman   Don't miss a single episode of Build Show content.

Lemme Finish

Travis Brungardt uses a candid shop-floor conversation to unpack one of construction’s toughest challenges: knowing when a project is truly finished. He discusses how builders often keep refining details long after schedules say the job should be done, chasing higher standards in trim, finishes, and overall presentation. The episode explores the tension between craftsmanship, timelines, budgets, and client expectations, especially when aesthetic standards are hard to define. Brungardt also talks through mockups, sample approvals, and clearer benchmarks as ways to reduce rework and liability. The broader theme centers on balancing perfectionism with practical project management in custom home building.
