We See It Too.

The client experience throughout the design and construction process can be as important as the finished building.

Planning Phase:
We learn about your lifestyle, concerns, project goals and budget to create a home that not only looks beautiful, but complements your life.

  • Listen & Understand–We will visit your home or building site to listen to your vision.
  • Plan – We can develop a building plan for your home that’s practical, beautiful and within your price-range. Or we can work with an existing blue-print.
  • Estimate –Lucid Builders will prepare a project estimate based on your selection allowances, building plan, exiting structure and selected pricing model. The estimate might include line-item details, labor, permit fees, materials, planning costs or a budget allowance for finishes that may need to be finalized later (such as tile or appliances). We can walk through the estimate to ensure we’ve captured your vision and answered your questions.


Contract Phase:
When you are comfortable with the budget and rough project scope, we will create a contract to define the project. While the paper-work may be less exciting, our contract is designed to protect the home-owners, your property, ensure integrity of the project and hold contractors and subcontractors accountable.


Project Set-Up:
Once the contract is signed, we will begin working on your project long before we break-ground. To ensure the smoothest possible project with fewer disruptions to your life, we take time to plan and organize the project upfront.

  • Schedule – We will produce a schedule outlining the project milestones.
  • Organize Materials – We will schedule materials, logistics and craftsmen to ensure an efficient project.
  • Permits – We will apply for necessary city permits to ensure a compliant and quality project.


Construction:
From the time we break ground through the final cleaning, we will be onsite to manage materials, craftsman, daily clean-up and do much of the labor ourselves.

  • Quality – From demolition through the finishing-touches, we will monitor quality of workmanship, city inspections, coordinate materials and subcontractors.
  • Organization — We manage the sequence and schedule of craftsman, materials and details to ensure ensure a smooth and efficient job.
  • Selections — The homeowner will need to make selections for colors, materials and fixtures — we can help guide you through this process and make recommendations that fit your budget.
  • Communication – Status reports, progress photos, regular meetings and even time-lapse videos help our clients stay connected to their project.

 

Follow-Up:
As you prepare to move into your new space, we will take care of any punch-list items and ensure satisfaction. All our tools, materials and building debris will be removed and the construction area will be cleaned. We will help you organize related warranties and regular maintenance.
