4- Estimating & Budgeting
Once we've reviewed the site, determined your needs and desires, and developed initial design drawings, the estimating process can begin. Most of us approach life knowing that there is a bottom to the financial barrel. In other words, it's necessary that all the project parameters fit within a given budget. Through a process of value engineering and design options, we will work together to do just that: to give you the most "bang for the buck" in your new home.
5- Contracting
It's vitally important that as partners, we all have a clear picture of what is expected of each other, and have a mechanism that establishes those responsibilities. During our years in business, we have developed a written agreement that does just that. Moreover, this agreement provides valuable information such as the scope of the project, owner and contractor responsibilities, and details about the specific materials that will go into your new home. It's our way of ensuring that your expectations are met during the construction phase.
