What is the process for selecting materials and finishes?
We guide you through the selection process, providing options that fit your budget and style preferences. You’ll have the opportunity to visit showrooms and consult with our design team to choose everything from flooring to fixtures.
How do you handle site preparation and permits?
We handle all aspects of site preparation, including grading and foundation work. We also manage the permitting process, ensuring that all necessary approvals are obtained before construction begins.
How do you ensure the quality of construction?
Quality is our top priority. We work with experienced tradespeople and use high-quality materials. Our project managers conduct regular inspections throughout the build to ensure that everything meets our strict standards.
What happens if there are delays or cost overruns?
While we strive to avoid delays, some factors, such as weather or supply chain issues, can cause them. We keep you informed of any changes and work to minimize their impact. For cost overruns, we provide transparent communication and discuss all options before proceeding.
How do you handle energy efficiency and green building practices?
We incorporate energy-efficient features and sustainable building practices into all our homes. This includes using high-performance insulation, energy-efficient windows, and sustainable materials. We can also design homes to meet specific green building certifications if desired.
How long does it take to build a custom home?
The timeline for building a custom home typically ranges from 8 to 16 months, depending on the complexity of the design, the size of the home, and any unforeseen delays. We provide a detailed project timeline at the outset and keep you updated throughout the process.
What is the cost per square foot for a custom home?
The cost per square foot can vary widely based on location, materials, and the level of customization. We’ll work with you to establish a budget and provide a detailed estimate based on your specific design and material choices.
Can you help with the design process, or do I need to hire an architect separately?
We offer comprehensive design services and can work with you from the initial concept through to the final blueprints. If you already have an architect, we’re happy to collaborate with them to bring your vision to life.
How do you handle communication throughout the project?
We believe in clear and consistent communication. You’ll receive regular updates through meetings, emails, and phone calls, ensuring you’re always informed.
Can I make changes to the design during construction?
Yes, you can make changes during construction, but it may affect the timeline and cost. We encourage open communication throughout the build and will work with you to accommodate changes whenever possible.
