Step One - Home and Site Plan Development
Contracting us to build your home gives you immediate access to our in house Design, Budget and 3-D Modeling. We all love surprises, but no one likes cost over run surprises. Planning is Key! We have honest discussions about your dream and the cost. When your designer is also your builder you are able to get effective cost analysis of design ideas before blue prints are done or products are ordered. This allows for the maximum effective use of your financial resources.

Step Three - Refine Plans
Taking time in Step Two ensures that we enter the Construction portion of Building knowing all the Details and Prices. We help you be prepared by refining as many details as possible up front. This phase is so important to budget allocation. We review the good, better or best choices for products and design, creating the Intelligent Home Design for you.

Step Four - Renderings, Shop Drawings and Engineering
Creating beautiful plans, renderings and a list of detailed specifications is only the beginning. Assimilating all of this information into a home requires an additional level of detail. During Step Four we create the detailed Shop Drawings, Assembly Instructions, 3-D Renderings and Engineering to pinpoint trades that need to be engaged early in the process of the build. Fireplaces, Kitchens, Built Ins, and Front Entries are just a few examples of areas that require a high level of detail. This will ensure that we have discovered any hidden costs to executing a design idea or product selection.
