Our Process: From Plans to Completion

Initial Consultation & Plan Review
When a client brings us a set of architectural plans, our first step is to review every detail. We examine site conditions, structural requirements, and desired finishes to fully understand the project’s scope. At this stage, we also discuss your overall vision—lifestyle needs, design preferences, and any specific features you want to incorporate.

Ballpark Budget & Feasibility
After reviewing the plans, we provide a ballpark budget—a rough estimate to ensure the project aligns with your financial expectations. If the budget meets your goals, we move forward to refine the cost breakdown and timeline. If not, we work with you to adjust the plans or materials accordingly.

Pre-Construction
Once the scope and budget are aligned, the client enters into a Pre-Construction Agreement. During this critical phase, we develop a strategic plan that covers design, permitting, and resource gathering. Pre-construction services provide a formal framework to define cost, scope, and schedule, ensuring the project is executed on time and within control. This phase lays the foundation for clear communication and efficient process management, preventing delays and avoiding costly missteps.

Detailed Contract & Project Timeline
With a clear vision and refined priorities, we prepare a detailed construction contract that covers everything from foundation work to finishes and fixtures. We also propose a preliminary timeline that outlines key milestones—from breaking ground to the final walk-through.

Permitting & Site Preparation
Our team coordinates with local municipalities to secure all necessary permits and inspections, ensuring your project moves forward without unnecessary delays. Before major work begins, we clear and prep the site, establishing a solid foundation for your future home.

Construction & Quality Assurance
Throughout the build, our project managers and skilled tradespeople focus on quality craftsmanship and maintain open communication. We keep you informed about progress, potential changes, and any unforeseen challenges, ensuring your new home stands the test of time.

Finishing Touches & Final Walk-Through
As the project nears completion, we install all finishing details—flooring, cabinetry, fixtures, and more—ensuring every element meets our high standards. Finally, we conduct a thorough walk-through with you, addressing any last-minute details and confirming your complete satisfaction with the result.
