Dear Sir or Madam:

The background and skills that you require for a Construction Manager/Superintendent are only a small part of what I can offer your firm. I have a solid history of producing results within a budget for custom homes of all styles, with values upwards to just over one million dollars. I effectively deal with clients, contractors and building officials on a regular basis. I come from a long line of craftsmen. My father was a general contractor, and I was brought into the family business at an early age. I excel in an environment that emphasizes craftsmanship, customer care and very personal service for clientele. I bring the same commitment, passion, and pride to every project, regardless of size or price range. Home building has never been just a 9 to 5 job for me. I have complete confidence in my abilities and talents. I reside in a small subdivision where my neighbors are not only my clients, but also my friends.

I hope that you will consider my accompanying resume and allow us an opportunity to speak at greater length about a position with your company.

Sincerely,

Barton P Grzebinski
