The Process:
Initial Consultation:
Our Initial meeting can be in person, over the phone, or over a video chat. I would like to hear more about the project and will record all the information I can about the clients wishes for the build. I will follow up the next day with a quote to design the project.
Team Collaboration:
If quote is accepted, I will begin to draft the initial design concepts. At this point if the client already has a builder, we will consult together to make sure the design meets the build budget. We continue to schedule meetings with the client and revise the design until they’re completely satisfied with the final product.
Estimated Time: 1 week
Final Drafting:
Once the client is happy, we will draft a set of finished architectural drawings for clients to use to submit for a building permit, and then use for the construction process. Once the drawings are drafted, payment is due, however we will be available throughout the construction process to assist if need be.
