Our 5 Phase Home Renovation Process
Firmbuilt Contracting and Design offers a five-phase process for home renovations: initial consultation, detailed design and planning, construction phase, final project review, and a two-year warranty period. Our approach prioritizes client satisfaction, high-quality craftsmanship, and open communication throughout the project.
1. Initial Consultation and Preliminary Proposal
At Firmbuilt Contracting and Design, we kick off our Whole Home Renovations process with an in-depth consultation. Our experts assess your home, discuss your renovation goals, provide information about our operations, similar projects, and potential costs, to ensure we're the right fit for you. We then draft a preliminary proposal, which includes a general scope of work, timeline, and an estimated budget. This step also involves advising clients to set aside a 10% contingency fund for any unexpected costs that may arise during the renovation process.
2. Design and Planning
Once the preliminary proposal aligns with your budget and schedule, we proceed to the Design and Planning phase. We conduct site visits with our architect and engineer and collaborate with our trade partners and vendors to create a detailed scope of work for your project. This phase also includes design planning where you discuss your lifestyle, design style, and vision for your space with our Design Consultant. By the end of this phase, we will have finalized construction drawings, a comprehensive construction budget, and an approved building permit ready for construction.
3. Construction
With the design and all selections complete, we commence the construction phase of the Whole Home Renovation. At this stage, we collaborate with all onsite staff members and subcontractors to ensure the project progresses as planned. Changes to the scope of work will be captured in a formal change order process. We prioritize quality control and closely monitor our trusted subcontractors to ensure the work meets our high standards. Before final cleaning, we conduct a walkthrough with the architect and homeowner to catch any final tweaks needed.
4. Punch List
Before the conclusion of the project, we compile a Punch List to identify and resolve minor issues. This list is created after an on-site meeting with the homeowner, during which we walk through the entire project and add any items that come up. Once all items on the Punch List are complete, the final payment is due. Any additional items will be handled during the warranty period.
5. Warranty
After the final payment is made, our 2-year workmanship warranty kicks in. During this phase, we remain available to handle any issues that may arise. We also help facilitate warranties for the products used during your Whole Home Renovation, providing you with a comprehensive service that extends beyond the completion of the project.
