Build Process

How We Build in the Bay Area

A disciplined, high‑end process: clear milestones, tidy staging, and a luxury finish that feels original to the home.

Step 1 • Permits & Compliance

Planning, Zoning & Submittals

We confirm setbacks, access, and utilities, then prepare planning/building submittals. When engineering is required, we coordinate with your selected engineer.

Step 2 • Architecture

Proportions, Materials & Glazing

Cladding alignments, reveal patterns, and glazing rhythms tuned to your residence. Level‑5 drywall and premium finishes inside.

Step 3 • Build & Schedule

Clean, Predictable On‑Site Execution

Compact crews with tidy staging and milestone tracking. Clear communication at each phase.

Step 4 • Closeout

Final Walkthrough & Care

Punch‑list, documentation, and a clean hand‑off so your new space feels move‑in ready.
