Step 1: Introduction Meeting / Free Estimate

How can we help? During our introductory meeting we will discuss your ideas, needs and wants, considering both design and budget. At this time, we will take measurements and generate a list of details required to use in completing the free estimate for you.  With the information gathered at our initial meeting, we will create an overall estimate, a first feasibility, for your project. This estimate is typically delivered within one week depending on the scope of work and at that time we will arrange a time to review it with you. Our objective is to obtain building costs as low as possible and to achieve your overall design and budget goals. It will also outline the timing of your project . Timing is based upon many different factors and is unique to each project. You will receive a schedule at the start of construction; and updates going forward, if needed due to unforeseen circumstances.

Step 2: Concept Design

Once the budget range is determined and we receive your approval to move forward, our architect will draft drawings that showcase your new design. These concepts will include any applicable interior and exterior elevations and will be used to obtain more accurate pricing for your project. There is a separate design fee associated with this step for the architect’s work. It’s a cost- effective way to get expert design with no obligation to the builder. However, if you decide to proceed with our services, this fee will be credited back to your project’s contract.

Step 3: Final Design Review / Pre-Construction

Once your design is complete any revisions needed will be made we will then proceed to working construction drawings. With review and acceptance of the drawings, we will create a second feasibility, draw up a contract for your approval, create structural construction drawings and a detailed job scope, including job bid. Once the contract is signed, let the building begin!
