Initial Consultation

We start the conversation on our website. Filling out our contact form is the best way to get the ball rolling, and also helps keep us on the same page throughout this process.

We begin with pre-construction. First, we bring the client and design team together to develop the design and dial in the budget. Then we begin the Proposal Phase to develop an accurate construction budget followed by a construction schedule. We follow up with a phone call to discuss the project and find out if we’re the right fit. We will tell you about us, how we operate, similar projects, potential costs, and see if our schedules align. Our goal here is to make the best use of your time. We want to help you quickly figure out if your budget and time frame aligns with us for your project. 

Pricing & Design Finalizing

When budget, schedule, and general scope align, we begin the pre-construction process. Before the start of construction, we work with the Architect and Interior Designer to keep the budget in line as the design unfolds. We set a target budget and help keep that target as we plan out the design. While we work with our trade partners, vendors, and staff to begin pricing the project, we will most likely schedule site visits to review existing conditions.
Depending on where the design and budget end up, we may offer multiple proposals to show a variety of options to control costs. You will understand how we have engineered value for the project to fit within the target budget, and how it impacts the design. The importance of this is to understand potential opportunities. If we find any choices that could bring the homeowner significantly more value, we make sure you have a chance to explore those options.

Construction

At the beginning of construction, the design should be complete, and all selections should be made. It is important for us to be fully equipped at this point, so we can begin preparing the project for the end result.
During construction, your project will be assigned a Project Manager, who works on-site and holds weekly meetings with the team back at the office.
Our carpentry team is made up of lead carpenters, carpenters, and apprentice carpenters. The Lead Carpenter is the hands-on site supervisor who reports directly to the Project Manager. The Lead Carpenter and Project Manager work together on a daily basis. The Lead Carpenter is also responsible for overseeing the Carpenters and Apprentices. They are the muscle behind the carpentry work on-site, from early stages of framing to the fitting of finishes at the very end of the project.
Quality control is our highest priority. We self-perform most of the carpentry and millwork, and closely monitor our qualified subcontractors to ensure all other work meets our standards and timeline. We work repeatedly with many of our contractors, and we consider them a part of our team and family at work!
We treat our homes with respect and prioritize keeping the site clean. We always treat the site as if the homeowner is going to walk the job every day at lunch. We take a great deal of pride in the homes we build and show the same pride throughout the process.

Punch List & Warranty

Our Punch List is simple:

• We create our initial Punch List before the end of the project to catch all minor issues. 

• We schedule a meeting with the architect and owner, to review this Punch List and add items that come up during that meeting. This meeting Is held onsite between Homeowner, Architect, and Builder, walking through the project entirely. 

• We create a formal Punch List with target completion dates, once all items are agreed to be complete final payment is due. Any additional items shall be handled during the warranty period.

Our warranty is active once the final payment is made and includes 2-years on all workmanship. Our product warranty is per product, and we will help facilitate the warranties for these products.
