Our Process

During this phase we will get acquainted to see if we are a fit for each other. We will do a deep dive into your vision and make sure that we “get it.” We will talk about your budget in relation to your vision, consider possible options and explain how financing or payments to us work. We will talk schedule, your role in the project and what you can expect from us. We will be unfailingly honest — telling you what will be fun — and what will not.

Prior to entering into a Construction Agreement together there will be pre-construction processes for which there will be fees. These processes will be handled with what is called a Professional Services Agreement or PSA. Your PSA will usually include costs for doing a detailed estimate that assures you a quality, completed project at a guaranteed price. The PSA does not obligate you to enter into a Construction Agreement with us and you own the results of the design work covered by the PSA.

With all or most of the results of the PSA work in hand we will meet with you to talk through the project. We will take all the time you want to be comfortable and confident. We will go over the scope of work, project plan, progress payments, timelines, logistics and concerns. We will now have all the information to provide a guaranteed price for your project, you will have signed off on the design and production plan. You will meet your personal project manager and discuss how communications can be handled. We will provide an Agreement for our mutual signatures.

During the building phase we will handle all the details of ordering materials, scheduling, oversite, and coordination. Concurrently we will diligently keep you up to date on progress and issues.
No matter how carefully we plan your project together you will probably want to make some changes along the way. We are prepared to cheerfully accommodate any changes you want to make. Our Agreement will explain how costs associated with your changes will be handled.
