The Process of Constructing a Custom Home

When you decide to build a custom home, the plan to follow may seem daunting, especially if you have not built a home previously. Questions regarding cost, timing, who to use, and more can be overwhelming. This is why Balsitis Contracting emphasizes transparency and open book billing when  we work with our clients. This type of work environment allows us to accomplish what we set out to do for our clients – provide the best results you can ask for in your home.

Opening Meeting

This is an exciting time, as we discuss all of your wishes for the home you’re looking to build. Do you want a chef’s kitchen, a spa in the master bath, or a lower level with an in-home theater? How about multiple work at home areas or a garage that does more than provide a storage area for your vehicles? This is the point where everything is put on the table. It may not be possible to include all you desire, but we can work with you to construct a home precisely how you want it.

Project Design

We work with a number of architects and designers and can bring them onto the team or you can select your own. Based on what we have agreed to include within the home, an architect develops the plans for the custom home, while the designer creates layouts for the home’s interior and exterior. During this part of the process, we are working together and providing feedback to the rest of the team to ensure the overall project goals are achieved.

Budgeting

Upon the development of plans, Balsitis Contracting produces the cost estimates and creates the detailed schedule for constructing your custom home. When the budget and architectural plans are finalized, we move forward on securing the needed permits and authorizations to begin building.

Construction Supervision

The Balsitis Contracting staff and all those that we partner with work with two goals in mind – to maintain the production schedule and keep the project on budget. Through our client portal, you can see the daily schedule and communicate with our staff, getting questions answered and sharing updates. Upholding quality standards and eschewing errors, our talented craftsmen follow exacting safety protocols and are dedicated to following the design plans precisely.
