Frequently Asked Questions

Many are familiar with square footage pricing and always ask "How much do you charge per square foot?" As a cost+ builder, that is largely dependent on the selections of the homeowner. Consider two, 2500 square foot homes, identical in size and floor plan.  In one home the homeowner selects luxury appliances, high end solid surfaces, ornate custom trim features, one-of-a-kind selections throughout the home and the list goes on...  Now on the second home, although a very nice finish out, the customer chooses more commodity items, modest appliances, and trim work.  Once complete, the first home will cost much more per square foot than the second.  My job is to work within your budget so the finished project meets your expectations, but does not break the bank.  

Assuming that you have your blue prints and a plot of land, the soil will be tested and the foundation engineered for the plan structure. Once the ground is prepped and the slab is poured, framing begins. After the walls are up and the roof is on, we will rough in all the mechanicals like water, electric and HVAC. Following the mechanicals, insulation, sheet rock, and cabinets will be installed. Then trim, paint, countertops, and flooring will make their way into your home. Lastly, there will be a final grade then completion. You should expect your home to be complete within six to nine months.

However, we have relationships with several banks who are familiar with our processes and reputation as a quality home builder.
