Step 1
Discovery
This is where big dreams start to take shape! A pivotal first step begins with a conversation where we explore your vision, discuss your needs, and outline the scope of your project. It's a chance for us to get to know each other, setting the foundation for our collaboration.
Step 2
On-site Consultation
For projects that require design, we’ll take measurements, assess the site conditions, and discuss your requirements and preferences. This is where we gain a clear understanding of the project scope before proceeding to the design phase.
Step 3
Design Production
Once the design agreement is signed, we get creative. Using your input and inspiration, we'll develop a conceptual design proposal with architectural floor plans, mood boards, 3D views, and lighting layouts. Expect regular updates and opportunities for feedback to ensure the design reflects your style and needs.
Step 4
Zoning Reviews and Committees of Adjustments
If your project requires zoning reviews or adjustments, we'll take care of the necessary paperwork and approvals on your behalf. Our team will prepare architectural drawings, represent you in front of zoning committees if needed, and ensure that your project complies with all local regulations and codes.
Step 5
Engineering and Permits
Once the design is finalized and any zoning requirements are addressed, our team of engineers will ensure that the design meets all structural and mechanical requirements. In the meantime, our permitting experts will handle the application process to secure the necessary permits for construction.
Step 1
Preparation
Before the hammer hits the nail, meticulous planning sets the stage for success. This is where we dot our i's and cross our t's, finalizing designs, selecting materials, and preparing the site for the transformation ahead.
Step 2
Design and Build
With plans laid out and preparations complete, it's time to bring your vision to life. Our integrated team with in-house design experts takes the reins, implementing every aspect of the project with creativity, precision, and care. From laying the foundation and building bespoke millwork to adding finishing touches, we aim to deliver your dream home on time and on budget.
Step 3
Wrap-up and Celebration
As we near the finish line, our focus shifts to the last details. Through meticulous inspections and walkthroughs, we ensure that every aspect meets your standards. Upon project completion, you’ll receive a comprehensive Closeout Binder with the tools and essential information about your new home.
“I know I never have to go and find another contractor.”
"They set realistic expectations, don't overpromise and under-deliver. They meet their goals exactly how they say they will or when they said they will. Contempo has proven to me that they are some of the best people in their industry. And that, for me, is all I need to know."
