SHM’s Peace-of-Mind Process: clear steps, budget control, your dream home—stress-free!
At SHM, we understand that building your dream home is a significant journey. Our Peace-of-Mind Process ensures you stay informed of the impacts your design decisions have on your budget and help you avoid unexpected surprises. Think of this process as navigating a road trip, with each step designed to guide you smoothly from start to finish.
Please note; This process is most relevant for people who are already working with a designer. However if you are looking to engage a design & build firm (like SHM) we hope you also find this guide helpful.
Objective: Understand you, your project, and determine if SHM is the right fit.
Just like planning the route is essential before any road trip, our Discovery Session is the starting point for your project. This in-depth meeting allows us to understand your expectations and how our Peace-of-Mind Process can help you.
Objective: Deep dive into the project details to create a comprehensive estimate and recommendation.
Much like packing the car with all essentials for the trip, we gather crucial information about your project. This step ensures a smooth journey ahead.
Objective: Present a clear cost estimate and recommendations for your construction project.
Setting the GPS provides a clear direction for your trip. Similarly, our detailed estimate and recommendations give you clarity and confidence.
Objective: Ensure client clarity on the estimate and recommendations.
Just like checking the map to ensure you're on the right path, your feedback helps us fine-tune our estimate & recommendation.
Objective: Finalize the estimate and recommendations for contract signing.
Adjusting the route ensures you reach your destination as planned. We refine our estimate & recommendations based on your feedback and prepare for construction.
Objective: Execute construction to create a beautiful, comfortable, and sustainable home.
Hitting the road is where the adventure begins, as our construction team brings your dream sustainable home to life.
This process has been the cornerstone of over 60 successful projects over the past decade. The SHM Peace-of-Mind Process provides clarity early in the design phase, ensuring you’re not driving blind, wasting time and money, or heading towards disaster.
