Initial Communication
At our first contact, we'll ask you questions
about the general square footage you have in mind, your budget
expectations and any location info that you know at that time.
This will give us a basic understanding of the general scope
of the project so that we can determine how best to help you.
First Meeting
We'll schedule a first meeting with you of approximately
1½ to 2 hours during which time we will discuss your
project at length. We'll ask you a wide range of questions
about your
lifestyle
and what you hope to achieve. We encourage you to collect
any photos, sketches and other plans to share with us at
this meeting.
Feel
free to discuss anything that comes to mind and ask questions
freely. There
is
no fee for this initial consultation.
Initiating Work
If after this meeting you are prepared to
move forward, we will provide you with copies of our contractual
paperwork for your review. This will include our Pre-Construction
Agreement and our Residential Construction Contract.
The Pre-Construction Agreement is the only document
we will need up front in order to proceed and provides for the
preliminary professional work needed prior to construction, including
preliminary architectural design, engineering and surveying, interior
design and construction documents including specifications and
preliminary cost analysis.
Initial Fees
Fees for the services provided under the Pre-Construction
Agreement are considered deposits toward construction and are credited
toward the final construction contract price. The fees are based
on the scope of project and vary from job to job. |
