Additions & Renovations
Step 1 - The House Call - - design done with you, in 3D. See it as you will live it.
Step 2 - Review with Builders
- The completed House Call Drawings enable you to get preliminary pricing from builders.
- They also give you a topic of substance to use in interviewing Builders. You need to find the right fit. The best way to do that is to talk about the tough things, like money and schedules.
Step 3 - Design Development
- This is where we tweak the kitchen, chose a specific window brand, and any other minor changes you may want.
- Budget an hour or two for each 1,000 sq ft of house size - at $125/hour. This will vary greatly with your needs and decision making process.
Step 4 - Construction Drawings
- For very round budgeting, start with $3/sq ft of heated space and $1.50/sq ft for unheated space other than the basement (garages, unfinished "future", porches, etc). It can vary from $1 to $5, but we wanted to give you a starting point. Renovation space will fall somewhere in this same range.
- These budget numbers are for our typical drawing set. Very detailed work, such as highly detailed built-ins, will be more.
- We give you a fixed fee proposal, so you will know exactly what it will be. We can do a fixed price at this stage because we have the House Call Drawings to define our scope of work.
