Every project has a different scope. Materials, site conditions, and design complexity all play a role in both the timeline and the budget. That’s exactly why we start with pre-construction. It gives us the time to work through the details together and land on numbers that actually reflect your project, not a guess. Once we’re aligned, you’ll have a clear picture of exactly what to expect before any work begins.

Both are essential, and the earlier they’re working together the better. Our recommendation is to get your architect started on initial drawings first, then bring us on board shortly after. That way we can weigh in on constructability and budget while the design is still flexible before changes become expensive. Getting us involved early is one of the simplest ways to keep your project on track.

We work on a cost-plus basis, and we prefer it that way. It means you see every invoice and know exactly where your money is going, with no markups hidden in a lump sum. Projects begin with an initial deposit, and from there we bill monthly based on completed work. It keeps things transparent and fair for everyone involved. That said, if a fixed lump sum works better for your situation, we’re open to that conversation too.
