Building a custom home shouldn't feel like a black box. Here's exactly what to expect - and what we'll need from you - at every stage.
A no-pressure conversation about your lot, your lifestyle, and the home you've been picturing. We talk timeline, ballpark budget, and the must-haves vs. the nice-to-haves. By the end, you know whether we're a fit - and we know how to scope your project.
We collaborate with your architect (or recommend one of our trusted design partners) to translate your vision into drawings. We pressure-test the design against budget, lot constraints, and city requirements - so the home you sign off on is the home that actually gets built.
A detailed, line-itemed quote - not a hand-wave. You see exactly what your home costs, where the allowances live, and where there's flexibility. Once we're aligned, we sign a clear contract that protects both of us.
We handle the city - DP, BP, engineering reviews, utility coordination - while you handle decisions on finishes. We provide selection schedules so nothing piles up at the eleventh hour, and you always know what's next.
Boots on the ground, every day. Our supervisor lives on your site - coordinating trades, catching issues before they become problems. You get weekly progress updates with photos through the BuildXact client portal, so you always know where we are and what's next.
Pre-drywall and final walkthroughs let you see and approve the work at the stages that matter most. We don't hand over a deficiency list - we hand over a finished home, then we follow up to make sure it stays that way.
Keys in hand. We orient you to your home's systems and hand over every manual and warranty document - including your Millennium Home Warranty: 1-year materials & labour, 2-year mechanical, 5-year foundation water penetration, and 10-year structural defect coverage, plus $6,000 in living-expense protection. Most of our clients still text us years later - and we like it that way.
Final walkthroughs, documentation, and ongoing support. We orient you to your home's systems, register your structural warranty, and stay accessible long after move-in. Most of our clients still text us years later - and we like it that way.
