Construction Process 

Phase 1: Lot Preparation
Construction begins with home site preparation. Your home's position is staked on the lot and prepped for the foundation.  Utilities are located and planned for eventual installation on the home.  Any necessary fill will be brought in and leveled off to give the home a solid pad.

Phase 2: Foundation
Our homes are constructed by using a slab foundation. Forms are set and an outline of the new home begins to take shape. Underground plumbing is installed and tied into the public sewer system or septic system. After a bit of prep work, including termite treatment, the slab is poured which creates the foundation for your home.

Phase 3: Framing
Framing is the phase where things really start to take shape. Many homeowners think their home is near completion at the end of this stage. Actually, we are still only about one third of the way through the construction process! So while the phases beyond this one may seem much slower in progress, it's because we are getting into the fine details which may not be apparent but are vital to your finished home.
In the framing phase, the walls and roof structure are built.  Your roof is also shingled. Window and door units are installed

Phase 4: Rough Mechanics
"Rough mechanics" is the term used for the mechanical portions of building including heating, air conditioning, plumbing and electric. This construction phase is a swarm of activity with the installation of plumbing and indoor sewer pipes, your furnace and ducts, and electric wiring, outlets, and switches.

Insulation is installed in the walls, Water, gas and electric utilities are also connected to your home.

Phase 5: Sheetrock
The sheetrock phase of home construction shows progress rather quickly. Rooms are separated and divided, giving you the visual effect of each space. Drywall is hung and finished, and the ceilings are insulated. Outside stucco, stone and/or brick are installed.

Phase 6: Trim
The finishing phase is probably one of the most exciting phases. You'll see many of the design selections  come to life. This is when installation happens for installs kitchen and bath cabinetry, countertops, mirrors, interior doors and trim, and many other detail features. Kitchen appliances and flooring are installed, and both the interior and exterior of your home are painted. 

Plumbing hardware, such as faucets, showerheads, commodes, and so on, are installed. Switch plates, plug covers, and light fixtures are put into place, as are your thermostat, outdoor air/heat pump unit, and register and return air covers. Carpeting is also installed.

This is generally an anxious time for many homeowners. Your home construction process is nearing completion and you are awaiting a finish date.

Phase 7: Final Stage
During this construction phase, finishing touches are added, such as cleaning the windows, floors, baths, kitchen, and so on. Walk throughs are scheduled to ensure all of the finishing touches on your new home have been completed.

After completion of the walk through items, your new home will be ready for you to move into!
