Pre-Construction Services
Having an architectural drawing package or permit isn't enough to define the plan! Pre-construction is a necessary step in aligning the construction and design elements of your project and creating clarity by identifying and accurately conveying the smallest details so that both client and contractor are aligned on the execution and costs.

Drawing Audit & Custom Element Design
Reviewing your architectural layouts to ensure optimal flow and customization helps achieve a space that works with you, not against you. We guide our clients through exercises to ensure they get the most out of their space based on routines and lifestyle considerations and help develop custom elements in the spaces that are most impactful.

Material Selections & Procurement Timelines
Pre-construction is the point where clients dive into the actual material selections which can be both enjoyable and overwhelming. We help mitigate the endless stream of options by guiding our clients through the selection process in a way that supports a cohesive look but helps them maintain design control for every space in the home. We also educate them on procurement timelines and installation considerations so they are always one step ahead in construction.

Material Quantities and Shopping Lists by Space
Shopping for finishes can be fun but it can also result in budget overruns if you're not careful. We help our clients stay within their budget by providing quantity take-offs for materials and corresponding shopping lists to make sure their decision-making when it comes to selections is informed and thorough. This gives our clients the opportunity to be in the driver's seat of comparing material pricing and overall cost considerations.

Technical Review & Design Packages
Making material selections is a big part of the process but it's only one piece of the puzzle. Our pre-construction program takes it one step further by vetting design and material choices through the technical lens of construction to identify connection details and installation directives. This hybrid lens of design and construction forms the backbone of trade tender packages and construction site direction.
