How a build runs
Six steps from the first visit to the walkthrough, the same on a bathroom as on a second storey.
Site visit
We come out, measure, listen and look behind what we can. A written estimate follows within a week, free.
Design
Our designer draws it, in 3D for you and to scale for the town. You sign off on every room before we price it.
Fixed price and permits
A fixed-price contract with a schedule by the week. We file the permit and answer the town's questions.
Framing
Demolition, then the structure: footings, beams, studs and rafters, plumb and square, inspected before it's closed.
Systems and inspections
Wiring, plumbing, heating, insulation and air sealing, each inspected by the town before the drywall goes up.
Finishes and walkthrough
Cabinets, tile, floors and paint. We walk every room with you, fix the list, and hand over the keys and the warranty.
Book a site visit
Pick a time and a project lead will come to the house, measure, look at the structure and talk through what you'd like. Free, and no obligation.

Questions
Why a range and not a price?
Because the same kitchen can cost $40,000 or $110,000 depending on the cabinets, the counters and what's behind the walls. After the site visit you get one number, in writing.
What if the price changes?
It doesn't, unless you change the plan or we find something hidden that nobody could have seen. Either way you approve the change in writing, with its price, before we do the work.
How far ahead do you book?
About eight weeks for a bathroom or kitchen, longer for spring starts on additions. Design and permits can run while you wait.
Do you work with my architect?
Yes. We build from other designers' drawings often, and price them the same way.
