Plan

02

With a clear vision in place, the planning phase brings your home to life on paper. Detailed drawings, curated selections, and approved permits all come together through a seamless, guided process. With transparency at every step, we ensure your home’s design and craftsmanship are perfectly aligned, setting the stage for a build defined by confidence and clarity. Below, explore the key steps and decisions that come together during this phase.

  • Through detailed site evaluations, we manage surveys, septic permitting, and setbacks to ensure your home is designed with precision and positioned beautifully within its landscape.

  • We collaborate closely with architects to design floor plans and elevations, ensuring every space reflects your vision and functions seamlessly for the way you live.

  • From finishes to fixtures, we partner you with an interior designer to curate selections that bring texture, tone, and personality to each space.

  • Using the finalized plans and design selections, we develop detailed scopes of work and gather quotes from trusted vendors and trade partners. This process allows us to create a comprehensive, transparent budget that aligns with your vision before construction begins.

  • We coordinate all necessary neighborhood approvals and building permits, managing submissions and communications to keep your project on track and ready for construction.

Once construction begins, your project is guided by a dedicated project manager who oversees every detail from start to finish. You’ll receive weekly updates and calls to keep you informed, while our use of BuilderTrend software provides full transparency into schedules, selections, and progress. This combination of hands-on management and real-time insight ensures your home is built efficiently, thoughtfully, and exactly as envisioned.

Beyond the Build

We continue to care for your home long after construction is complete, with check-ins at 60 days, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years to ensure everything is performing beautifully and meeting your expectations. Even after the two-year mark, our relationship continues. Our team remains available for any questions, adjustments, or support you may need. Your home is our priority for years to come, and we’re always here to help whenever it matters most.
