"Plan your work and work your plan"
Initial Meeting
Meet the team at the CSB office and discuss your project. Be upfront with your budget and timeline; this helps us create the customized road map. We will then review the project requirements and submit a preconstruction agreement to you. Once the preconstruction agreement is signed and our fees are paid we get to work!
Initial Design and Budget
Your CSB team will visit the site with any needed professionals, onboard the needed design partners, and begin basic site preparations and exploration. Some examples would include site surveys, soils testing, and utility hook ups. We will coordinate meetings to review the status and drawings as we develop and assign roles and responsibilities to finalized the design. Our team works with you to set our initial budget and timeline. We will coordinate showroom visits as needed and consolidate your finish selection options. We will review the budget with you, review how to use your project portal, and detail elements of the project.
Finalize Project/Prepare for Permit
Your team will now bring all aspects of the project together. At this point the architectural, structural, and landscape drawings will be completed to submit for permit. We will meet with you regularly to finalize finish selections, cabinet drawings, and lighting design. Our trusted subcontractors and vendors will submit final budgets while we finalize the project schedule. Our ultimate goal is to have everything chosen, approved, and accounted for before construction begins. Once we submit for permit, we will issue a construction contract based on the current budget and schedule. Once signed and permit issued, its time to get to work!
Our Process
The Build
The major advantage of our preconstruction process is that time spent upfront to plan every detail possible makes a much quicker and enjoyable construction process. Our dedicated onsite personnel who have been involved from the beginning will update you daily on progress via job logs, we will schedule and lead regular onsite meetings, and we will take the time educate you on how your home is constructed.
Move In!
Once your CSB team completes the build, we will walk through everything you need to know about living in your home. During construction we document locations of key items and consolidate manuals that we turn over to you. We will set up any necessary training with our experts so you feel confident in your home's operation and functionality. Final turn over is completed and its time to enjoy!
