The Process
How We Work.
Construction projects can be overwhelming. So we make it easy! Our proven system and experience ensures that you are always in the know, the project stays on track, and expenses do not add up unnecessarily!
1. Planning and Introductions
Your first time having Owner-Built see your project in person. We'll take this time to get to know each other, the scope of the project and our unique approach to construction.
After we get the business formality out of the way, you will be introduced to your dedicated project manager. They will be with you from this point in the project all the way through to the end. Whenever you need anything, they are there for you.
2. Pre Construction
Concept Design to Construction Drawings
This is where the fun begins. You will meet with the architectural draftsperson to lay out your vision for the space. The drafter will then design the space you describe as well as a couple of different options they come up with. In the end, you will usually choose a mixture of all the designs. Once you've agreed to a concept drawing, the construction drawings will be completed. These are crucial for the next step of the process.
Product Selection & Bid Getting
With our interior designer's assistance, you will begin selecting the furnishings and finishes that will shape your new space. You will also begin gathering bids from your necessary sub-contractors.
Build Budget
This step goes hand in hand with the previous step. As you make selections and gather bids, you will be building the budget. The budget is a crucial tool that you will use to make intelligent decisions regarding your project.
Build Construction Schedule
Once all bids are gathered, you will build the construction schedule. This will set the stage for what is to happen in your home in the coming months. The more meticulous you are at building this schedule, the quicker the project will go.
Obtain Permits
As the general contractor, you will need to obtain the proper permits from the city or county where you live.
