Pre-Construction Planning
Before you spend hundreds of thousands, spend $3,500 to remove the unknowns — so you can make confident decisions.
10–15 business days • Trade response dependent • 100% credited to build
The problem we solve
After a site visit, most people get stuck in indecision. This phase turns stress into a plan.
Less guessing
Fewer surprises
We flag the big cost movers early: access, servicing, foundation, and constraints.
Clear direction
One path forward
We recommend a direction and a simple finish level so you can decide without second-guessing.
A confident next step
Roadmap, not guesswork
You leave with a clear path into design/engineering/permit work — only if it’s worth pursuing.
What we heard
We document your priorities, then reflect the plan back to you.
Your goals
- Primary goal: family / rental / aging parent / resale
- Timeline goal: move-in window or “no rush”
- Budget comfort: tight / flexible / need options
Your worries → our response
- Top worries: permits / costs / disruption / neighbours / unknowns
- Non-negotiables: layout / parking / privacy / finishes
- How we’ll address them: plan + trade checks + clear scope boundaries
How it works
Three steps. Clear outputs.
-
Kickoff (Day 1)
Confirm goals, constraints, and decision criteria. We collect what we need to start.
-
Feasibility review + trade site visit (Days 2–12)
We tighten feasibility, logistics, and rough pricing ranges.
-
Pre-construction planning package + review call (Days 10–15)
You get the full package below, then we walk it together and align on next steps.
