Our Process - How we build

Pre-Construction

Honest conversations­, finding out what is most important to you and explaining clearly what you can expect from us.

  • 01.    Importance of Planning

    Successful construction projects require thorough planning. Rushing into a project without detailed planning often leads to problems and delays. While pre-construction can be a significant expense, the benefit of collaboratively planning and sequencing a project on paper is priceless for the overall build.

    02.    Design and Construction

    The pre-construction phase involves developing the project from both a design and construction perspective. The construction team acts as consultants, working alongside architects and clients to establish budgets, pricing, and schedules.

    03.    Accuracy Through Information

    Gathering comprehensive information upfront leads to more accurate cost estimates and timelines. Lack of information results in assumptions and allowances, which can significantly impact the budget and create frustrations during construction.

    04.    Benefits of Pre-Construction

    Working together closely through pre-construction allows for a better understanding of the project and facilitates accurate communication with clients. It enables the construction team to provide a clear picture of what it will take to build the project. 

    05.    Proactive vs. Reactive

    Pre-construction offers the opportunity to be proactive in evaluating materials, systems, and alternative options. In contrast, making decisions during the construction phase becomes reactive and limits the time available for study and optimization.

    06.    Confidence in Budget Adherence

    The pre-construction process builds confidence in the established budget, with transparency between all team members. With careful planning and value engineering, the project can be executed within the set budget, reducing the need for a large contingency. 

Build

We work with you to provide realistic expectations throughout the project. We strive to provide quality craftsmanship along side clear and consistent updates throughout the project.

  • 01. Next Steps

    Once the pre-construction phase is complete, we transition to the construction phase. Our dedicated Project Manager becomes your main point of contact. They orchestrate all construction activities. They work closely with our team of craftspeople and trusted trade partners to ensure that the work is done with the highest quality standards, within the established schedule and budget.

    02. Partners

    We hold our trade partners accountable to maintain quality and pricing. Clear scope definition, thorough subcontractor agreements, and regular site inspections ensure that our high standards are met consistently. Our project manager oversees on-site production and quality control, ensuring that the work progresses smoothly and according to plan. With a strong network of trusted suppliers and subcontractors, we ensure that your project benefits from the expertise and reliability of our A-Team.

    03. Communication

    Communication remains our top priority throughout the construction process. Our dedicated Project Manager will be available on site daily for any questions you may have. Along with weekly meeting to discuss the progress, budget, and coming weeks of your project.

    04. Safety

    Safety is paramount in our construction process. We implement strict safety protocols, ensuring a safe working environment for everyone involved. Our team is trained to follow all safety regulations and take necessary precautions to prevent accidents or disruptions to the project. Our team’s proactive approach ensures efficiency, reduces delays, and establishes a long-term commitment to safety.

Post-Construction

We walk you through your home 2 weeks prior to possession to address any items that need attention. This is our chance to make your move-in day perfect. We complete this process with you again on the day you take possession and demonstrate how any prior issues have been addressed. Once settled, we maintain an open dialogue with scheduled home checks at 3, 6, and 12-month intervals.
