Planning

• Meet with the customer and determine project goals
• Provide on-site consultation of options and design possibilities
• Perform a preliminary site review identifying property boundaries, obstructions and site conditions (pickup a plot plan from the customer if possible)
• Project measurements are taken
• We’ll do a review of the possible material selections (decking, colors, shingles, siding, etc.)

 

Analysis (internal)

• Determine project complexity (management time/days to complete/material lead time/material availability)
• Determine man/hours needed to complete the project and the type of crew/crews needed
• Depending on the size of the project, we may ask the customer for additional design sessions to review options and budget allowance.
• Identify best choice, lowest cost and highest quality materials for project

 

Design

• Determine whether we need an architect or engineer involved in the project
• Create a project design (site map/blueprint/project sketch)
• Explain material choice, cost considerations and quality of materials chosen to customer

 

 

Customer Consultation
