Our Process


Remodeling or building a custom home involves several steps to ensure that the project is executed smoothly and to your satisfaction. Here's a general overview of the process:

  1. Initial Consultation and Planning: This stage involves meeting with architects, designers, and contractors to discuss your vision, goals, and budget for the remodel. You'll talk about your requirements, preferences, and any specific features you want to incorporate into the design.
  2. Design Phase: During this phase, architects and designers will create detailed plans and drawings based on your input from the initial consultation. They'll work to incorporate your ideas while also considering structural integrity, building codes, and practicality. You'll have several meetings to review and revise the designs until you're satisfied.
  3. Permitting and Approvals: Before any construction work can begin, you'll need to obtain the necessary permits and approvals from local authorities. This process can vary depending on your location and the extent of the remodel. Your contractor will typically handle this aspect of the project.
  4. Material Selection: Once the design is finalized and permits are obtained, you'll work with your contractor to select materials such as flooring, countertops, cabinetry, fixtures, and appliances. This step may involve visiting showrooms, reviewing samples, and making decisions based on your budget and preferences.
  5. Demolition and Preparation: Before the actual construction can begin, any existing structures or elements that are being replaced or modified will need to be demolished and removed. This includes tearing down walls, removing old fixtures, and clearing out debris. The site will then be prepared for the new construction, which may involve excavation, grading, and laying the foundation.
  6. Construction: This is the phase where the actual remodeling work takes place. Skilled tradespeople such as carpenters, plumbers, electricians, and HVAC technicians will work together to bring the designs to life. This includes framing, roofing, electrical and plumbing rough-ins, insulation, drywall installation, flooring, painting, and finishing touches.
  7. Inspections: Throughout the construction process, various inspections will be conducted by building inspectors to ensure that the work complies with local building codes and regulations. Inspections may occur at different stages of the project, such as framing, electrical, plumbing, and final inspection before occupancy.
  8. Final Touches and Clean-Up: Once construction is complete and all inspections have passed, the finishing touches will be added, including installing fixtures, hardware, and any additional decorative elements. The site will then be thoroughly cleaned up to prepare for occupancy.
  9. Final Walk-Through and Punch List: Before officially handing over the completed remodel to you, your contractor will conduct a final walk-through to address any remaining issues or deficiencies. This may involve creating a punch list of items that need to be addressed or corrected before final acceptance.
  10. Project Completion and Handover: Once all the work is finished to your satisfaction and any outstanding issues have been resolved, the project will be considered complete. You'll receive any relevant documentation, warranties, and maintenance instructions, and the keys to your newly remodeled custom home will be handed over to you.



Throughout the entire process, effective communication between you, your contractor, and other professionals involved in the project is crucial to ensure that your vision is realized and that the remodel is completed on time and within budget.
