About this podcast

Nobody teaches you how to run a construction business. You figure it out the hard way, usually by losing money, losing sleep, or losing good people before you finally find your footing. Heather Tankersley co-owns a luxury residential construction company. Jerry Brewer has spent decades as a drywall subcontractor. Between them they've lived most of what you're dealing with. The Build Line is where they talk about it honestly, without the polish, without the spin. New episodes every Tuesday.
