Gabriel Lopez of GL Construction of Madison Launches Clarity and Quality Pledge

Wisconsin, US, 6th February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, GL Construction of Madison, founded by Gabriel Lopez, has announced the launch of a new Personal Clarity & Quality Pledge, a public commitment aimed at addressing a timely issue in construction: unclear communication and fragmented decision-making that often lead to long-term building failures.

The pledge is rooted in Lopez's nearly two decades of experience across commercial and residential construction and draws directly from themes shared in his recent career interview.

"Most issues don't start on the roof," Lopez said. "They start before the job begins, when nothing is explained properly."

Why the Pledge Matters Now
Construction-related complaints continue to be a major issue nationwide. According to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, home improvement and construction consistently rank among the top consumer complaint categories each year. In the Midwest, exterior failures are especially costly. Industry data shows that water intrusion and roofing-related issues are among the leading causes of residential structural damage, worsened by freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snowfall.

"When exterior systems fail, everything behind them pays the price," Lopez said. "Buildings behave as systems, whether people plan for that or not."

The Personal Clarity & Quality Pledge

Through this pledge, Lopez is committing to seven concrete behaviours in his own work:

Explain every project scope in plain language before work begins
Treat roofing, siding, framing, and gutters as one connected system
Set expectations early and document them clearly
Communicate delays or changes as soon as they arise
Refuse shortcuts that trade long-term durability for speed
Apply the same standards to small projects as large ones
Hold consistency as a daily discipline, not a marketing claim
"Construction doesn't need hype," Lopez said. "It needs consistency."

A Do-It-Yourself Toolkit for Property Owners

GL Construction of Madison is also releasing a free, public toolkit to help individuals raise standards on their own-without paying for services:

10 Actions Anyone Can Take

Write down questions before speaking to any contractor
Ask how exterior components work together
Request timelines in writing
Clarify who is responsible for each task
Keep a simple project notebook
Ask for explanations, not just answers
Review more than one public reputation source
Document conversations with follow-up notes
Learn basic signs of exterior wear
Expect clarity, not urgency
"You don't need to be an expert," Lopez said. "You just need to ask questions and expect straight answers."

30-Day Progress Tracker

Week 1: Learn basic exterior system terms
Week 2: Review current property conditions
Week 3: Practise asking clearer questions
Week 4: Document and reflect on decisions made

"Shortcuts always show up later," Lopez said. "They never disappear."

Call to Action
GL Construction of Madison invites property owners, builders, and industry peers to take the Clarity & Quality Pledge, use the DIY toolkit, and share it with others who want better outcomes from construction projects.

"Better buildings come from better conversations," Lopez said. "That's something everyone can take responsibility for."
