About Our Design-Build Firm

We are a licensed, insured design-build company specializing in turnkey custom homes delivered at a guaranteed fixed price. Our integrated architects, engineers, and builders streamline decisions, eliminate handoffs, and deliver predictable results supported by rigorous documentation, proactive communication, and dependable craftsmanship.

Fixed-Price Packages Overview

Discover how our fixed-price design-build packages bundle architectural design, engineering, permitting, materials, labor, project management, and warranties into a single transparent agreement that protects your budget, reduces risk, and keeps your custom home on schedule.

What "Turnkey" Really Means

Turnkey means we manage every stage from concept and soils testing to final punch list and move‑in, coordinating trades, inspections, and utilities. You receive keys to a completed, code-compliant home with documented warranties, manuals, and verified quality benchmarks.

How Fixed Pricing Protects You

Our fixed price is built on engineered plans, itemized scopes, supplier bids, and allowance schedules, locking your investment before construction. You avoid escalation surprises, fragmented contracts, and finger‑pointing by working with one accountable partner responsible for cost, quality, and schedule.

Transparent Scope Documents

We provide a plain‑English scope book detailing inclusions, exclusions, specs, finishes, and allowances by room and system. You know exactly what is covered, what options exist, and how decisions affect cost and timeline before you sign or break ground.

Our Design-Build Process

A single integrated team develops design, pricing, permitting, procurement, and construction sequencing together, reducing redesign loops, compressing timelines, and ensuring the approved budget matches the final build. Fewer handoffs mean faster decisions, clearer accountability, and superior outcomes.

Allowances reflect typical conditions, with documented unit pricing for unpredictable challenges like rock, dewatering, or off‑site utility extensions.

Structural Shell and Envelope

Engineered foundations, moisture‑managed slabs or crawlspaces, precision framing, shear walls, roof trusses, weather barriers, flashing, and high‑performance windows create a durable, tight envelope. These elements ensure comfort, efficiency, and longevity, and they anchor warranties covering structure and water intrusion.

Interior Finishes and Fixtures

Standard packages include quality cabinets, quartz or granite counters, resilient flooring, tile in wet areas, painted walls, LED lighting, plumbing fixtures, and appliance allowances. Upgrade paths are prepriced, with curated options that maintain schedule integrity and manufacturer warranty eligibility.

Customization Options

Personalize your plan with structural modifications, window placement, ceiling treatments, built‑ins, premium kitchens, luxury baths, exterior elevations, and outdoor living spaces. We price options early, validate engineering, and align selections with lead times to keep your move‑in date intact.

  • Floor Plan Modifications Expand rooms, reconfigure traffic flows, add a guest suite, or design multigenerational layouts with private entries. We verify spans, load paths, duct routes, and egress, ensuring changes remain code‑compliant and cost‑efficient while delivering the functionality your household needs for years.
  • Kitchen and Bath Upgrades Select pro‑grade appliances, custom cabinetry, quartzite surfaces, large‑format tile, curbless showers, freestanding tubs, and water‑smart fixtures. We coordinate rough‑ins, blocking, ventilation, and waterproofing details so luxury finishes perform beautifully, resist moisture, and maintain manufacturer coverage after occupancy.
  • Exterior Architecture and Outdoor Living Elevate curb appeal with enhanced elevations, siding profiles, stone, metal accents, and covered porches. Design outdoor cooking, fire features, and integrated lighting. Structural engineering validates loads, while durable materials withstand climate, minimizing maintenance and maximizing year‑round enjoyment.

Energy Efficiency and Sustainability

We design for high performance using advanced air sealing, insulation strategies, efficient mechanicals, water‑saving fixtures, and solar readiness. Verified testing and documentation demonstrate code compliance and real savings, protecting comfort, indoor air quality, and long‑term operating costs for your family.

High-Performance Envelope

We specify continuous exterior insulation, meticulous air sealing, advanced framing, and thermally broken windows to reduce heat loss and gain. Blower‑door testing verifies targets, ensuring quiet interiors, consistent temperatures, and lower energy bills without sacrificing architectural character or daylight.

Mechanical Systems and Indoor Air Quality

Right‑sized HVAC with variable‑speed equipment, smart zoning, balanced ventilation, and filtration improves comfort and health. Duct sealing and commissioning confirm performance metrics, while smart thermostats, sensors, and controls optimize operation according to your schedule and seasonal conditions.

Solar and Net‑Zero Readiness

We model roof orientation, structural loading, conduit pathways, and panel reserves for future solar arrays and battery storage. Electrical infrastructure and monitoring are preplanned to simplify upgrades, helping you move toward net‑zero goals when incentives and usage patterns align.

Budget and Financing Guidance

From allowances and escalation clauses to lender draws and appraisals, we guide you through every financial detail. Predictable milestone payments, transparent change orders, and realistic contingencies keep you in control while protecting construction momentum and lender confidence throughout the build.

  • Allowance schedules are sized to your finish expectations, not generic averages. We track selections against budget in real time, flagging variances early and offering equal‑or‑better alternatives that preserve aesthetics, schedule, and long‑term performance without unpleasant closing‑day surprises.

  • Our vetted lenders understand construction draws, interest reserves, and rate‑lock timing. Pre‑approval clarifies your purchasing power, while early appraiser engagement aligns scope and comps, reducing valuation risk and smoothing underwriting so foundations can start as soon as permits clear.

  • We recommend structural efficiencies, specification swaps, and layout refinements that reduce cost while preserving durability and design intent. Decisions are backed by supplier warranties and performance data, ensuring savings do not erode comfort, appearance, resale value, or energy outcomes.

Permits, Codes, and Inspections

We handle municipal reviews, HOA submittals, utility approvals, and all required inspections, coordinating responses and corrective actions. Our documentation anticipates plan check comments, accelerating approvals and ensuring your home meets or exceeds applicable building, energy, and safety codes.

Timeline and Project Management

A disciplined schedule sequences procurement, sitework, structure, rough‑ins, finishes, and commissioning with buffers for weather and inspections. Weekly reporting, look‑ahead planning, and fast decision support maintain momentum and provide visibility into progress, upcoming selections, and critical dependencies.

Phased Schedule Overview

We map milestones from survey and staking through final cleaning and orientation, including long‑lead procurement. Critical path tasks are protected with proactive ordering and contingency details, ensuring seasonal risks or supplier shifts do not derail your planned move‑in date.

Weekly Reporting and Site Access

You receive weekly progress photos, three‑week look‑aheads, and issue logs. Scheduled site walks provide safe access for reviews and approvals. Clear communication reduces uncertainty, accelerates decisions, and empowers you to track quality while staying comfortable with pace and plan.

Risk Mitigation and Contingency Planning

We identify schedule and cost risks early, securing alternates, backup suppliers, and weather protections. Documented contingencies and escalation strategies keep work flowing, preserving quality and budget even when supply conditions, inspections, or site discoveries demand rapid adjustments.

Specified materials balance aesthetics, longevity, and availability, while craftsmanship standards and supervision ensure finishes align with samples approved during design, avoiding rework and protecting warranty eligibility.
