Process

We believe strongly that any job worth doing, is worth doing well. 

Insight.

Builder is a title we don with pride. It captures our passion for distinctive architectural space and our expertise in solving an intricate puzzle. Our experience has equipped us well to handle projects of varying magnitude and complexity, from the renaissance of a distinctive century-old residence to the materialization of an innovative ground-up structure.

Artistry.

In planning for exceptional outcomes, we pull from experienced resources and methods crafted from successful past projects that have a common vernacular. Integrating modern and traditional styles require special attention to detail and familiarity with techniques and products not found in other custom designed projects. Special considerations must be incorporated into custom designs which require exacting tolerances of flush surfaces, care in handling sensitive exotic materials, and techniques installing new and technically sophisticated products. 

Experience.

We know that the best outcomes result from a collaboration between the owner, Architect, and builder where information is shared. Our cloud-based management tools allow for sharing of schedules, drawings, specifications, photos, budgets and change orders. iPhone and Macbook become critical jobsite tools to allow the field to share current activities and conditions. Our process enables the owner and Architect to have an informed and active role in the outcome. 

Our Process

01. Consultation

Tell us about the home you’ve always imagined. We want to hear more about you, your family, your ultimate wishlist, and your ideal budget. Where do you want to live? Are you considering a cozy neighborhood lot or a spacious estate parcel? Do you have a plan and piece of property in mind, or do you want to start the design and property search process from scratch?

Getting to the bottom of what’s most important to you allows us to craft a proposal and get to work building your dreams. Our team has the knowledge and experience to guide you toward a suite of custom features that fit both your inspiration and budget

02. Plan Collaboration

Once we’ve agreed on an initial budget and list of features, the design team will work with you to create a detailed floor plan with a carefully considered room layout and exterior elevations. At this stage, we will hone in on your specific architectural style and build on your initial inspiration. Many of your custom amenities, energy efficiency features, and other details important to your lifestyle are considered and added at this time.

How you plan to use your home is at the forefront of the design discussions, and we will advise you at every turn to keep you on budget while crafting your vision.

After your home has come to life we will formally bid your home and create allowances based on your wishlist and inspiration. Once the plans, specifications, and construction budget are approved, a contract can be executed.

03. Finishes & Selections

Designers will work closely with you at this stage to pick the flooring, tile, appliances, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and other details that you will see and touch every day in your new home. They will help you identify your personal style and bring your inspiration to life throughout this process.

We coordinate appointments with our incredible local trade partners and showrooms to give you access to industry leading products and finishes – complete with experts to guide you and keep you on track. Can’t make it in person? Through our online project management software, you can see product photos and information, track due dates, approve pricing, and work with our team and trade partners – all from the comfort of your home.

04. Construction

At this stage, our experienced production team will deftly bring your vision to life. We have cultivated a construction process that produces the highest quality homes that satisfies completely. We are proud of the relationships we share with local tradespeople, subcontractors, and suppliers who share our passion for uncompromising craftsmanship.

One of our dedicated Project Managers will be your point of contact throughout the construction of your new home. Through our software, track updates, view site photos, and interact from wherever you are. Milestone in-person walkthroughs will be scheduled to review key phases of construction, allowing you to further customize things in an effort to produce a product with zero regrets.

Building a home is a highly collaborative process that doesn’t end after the initial design. We make it easy to stay engaged and connected from the foundation to the final clean.
