A Smarter Way to Build
Our design/build process is fully integrated, which means one team handles everything, from concept to construction, with clear communication every step of the way.
01
INITIAL INQUIRY
STARTING THE CONVERSATION
We begin by learning more about your project through a quick phone call or online form. From there, James or Ian will reach out directly to discuss your vision, timing, and goals. If we’re a good fit, we’ll schedule an on-site consultation to move things forward.
03
ESTIMATE
PLANNING WITH CLARITY
After our visit, we prepare a high-level estimate to give you a realistic sense of the project cost. This includes key considerations like scope, timeline, and finish level. If everything looks good, we’re ready to move forward with detailed design.
05
VISUALIZATION
BRINGING IDEAS TO LIFE
We offer optional 3D renderings to help you visualize your finished space before any construction begins. This makes it easier to make confident choices around finishes, materials, and layout, and ensures we’re on the same page before final pricing.
07
CONSTRUCTION
MANAGING EVERY DETAIL
From demolition to finishes, our team manages the entire build. We handle all trades, inspections, and site coordination. You’ll get regular updates and have one clear point of contact throughout the process. Our focus is always on quality, efficiency, and communication.
02
SITE EVALUATION
UNDERSTANDING YOUR SPACE
At your home, we take measurements, assess existing conditions, and explore potential layout options. We’ll also walk through your goals, priorities, and inspiration. This helps us establish an early planning budget and ensures we’re aligned before moving into design.
04
DESIGN & RETAINER
MAPPING OUT THE DETAILS
We dive into design by gathering more precise site data and refining your layout. During this stage, we collect a retainer to begin working on floor plans, engineering documents, and permit requirements — everything needed to get your project off the ground.
06
SCOPE & CONTRACT
ALIGNING ON COMMITMENT
Once your design is finalized and selections are made, we present a fixed-price construction contract. It outlines every detail of the build so there are no surprises. When the contract is signed and permits are in hand, we’re ready to break ground.
08
FINAL WALKTHROUGH
DELIVERING WITH CONFIDENCE
Once construction wraps, we walk through the home together to ensure everything is completed to your standards. Any final touch-ups are handled promptly. Our goal is simple — to leave you with a space you’re proud of, and a process you’d recommend.
