    Ways to Stop Bidding with Wade Paquin

    In today’s episode of The Build Show Podcast, Matt Risinger sits down with long-time friend and fellow builder Wade Paquin of WKP Builders for a deep dive into one of the most transformative shifts in residential construction — moving away from the traditional bidding carousel and embracing pre-construction agreements. Matt and Wade share hard-earned lessons from decades in the field, revealing how pre-con can protect both builders and clients, streamline collaboration with architects, and build lasting trust through transparency. Together, they discuss real-world examples, the pitfalls of the old “three-bid” mindset, and how the pre-construction process creates better budgets, schedules, and client relationships. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting your building business, this conversation delivers practical insight into elevating your systems and safeguarding your profitability. From the Risinger Build Studios in Austin, Texas—let’s get into it. Huge thanks to our episode sponsor, Pella.
