“WPA and its Principals have been working with Compo Construction for almost two decades. Compo is our go-to team when we need a contractor we can trust, a client who wants excellent design and construction quality, and needs to meet a budget. Compo is unique for a company of its size in that they have always had in-house CAD and BIM capabilities, which allows us to easily work together as a team and accomplish our client’s goals faster. As architects and interior designers, we take pride in our work and want to see it built the way we’ve detailed it. The great thing about Compo is that they share our passion for good design; we trust them to execute our work in the field in a way that meets the design intent, but also saves the client money.“
