PHASE
PROCESS · 4 PHASES · SAME EVERY PROJECT

Four phases.
A single lead.

Discovery → design → build → punch + steward. The same project lead carries you through all four. The first conversation is unhurried; the last conversation, 18 — 26 months later, is at the kitchen counter you specified together.

I

Discovery

A site walk and a long conversation about how the household lives. We come back with a feasibility memo and a budget range.

II

Design

An in-house design team produces concept, schematic, and construction documents. Three revision rounds. Stamped permits at the end.

III

Build

Lead carpenter on every job. Weekly client meetings, transparent budget tracker, single project lead from groundbreaking to occupancy.

IV

Punch + steward

12-month punch warranty plus an annual building checkup for the life of the home.
