We meet with you to assess your project needs. This is achieved by listening to your vision of how you want to live and interact in your living environment, both indoors and outdoors. The goal of this meeting is to gather information and to establish your budget goal.

Project Contract: 

At this point all the project parameters are understood and the budget can be finalized. We will send you an updated Proposal, including a detailed job costing which, after your review and discussion, leads to a final Scope of Work and the fixed price cost of the project. The Project Contract will include the Scope of Work, a Work Schedule, Payment Schedule and an explanation of our Change Order procedure. Any alteration or deviation from the Project Contract requires a written Change Order that must be signed by you, the Owner, before any additional work can be scheduled. Any modification to the project cost or schedule will be clarified in the Change Order.

Preliminary Design:  

Our next objective is to begin the Design Process. We will develop a Design Budget, and when approved by you, start on preliminary design ideas and drawings. In this Preliminary Design phase we brainstorm the different options with you to create your vision. We will develop a set of sketches with different solutions and create a Rough Cost Budget.

Scheduling:

Once the Project Contract is approved and signed, the work will be scheduled. An on-site Supervisor will be assigned to your project and will be responsible for overseeing the project on a daily basis. With on-site supervision and accurate scheduling, our daily communication with you ensures a smooth running project.

Final Design:

At this stage, we will blend the various revisions into the final design and revised cost estimate. We collectively review the drawing and budget information and finalize the project design, scope of work and rough cost. This results in the Project Proposal.

Building:

Due to the unique nature of each project, our Building Process emphasizes ongoing communication and review, minimal community impact, and maximum value and satisfaction. We adhere to the schedule and work closely with our clients to proactively identify where and when concerns might arise. Maintaining a clean job site is a priority throughout the entire building process. We believe our projects improve the community and neighborhood, too, so we take that into consideration throughout the project—the improvement starts when we start.
