Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the answers to our most commonly asked questions
How many weeks is typical for the Design Phase?
We normally allot 8-10 weeks for our Design Phase. This varies by project and is based on the complexity of the project. This time allotment may be extended if decisions are delayed.
How many weeks is typical for the permit to be issued?
Permitting takes as long as it takes, that is the simple answer. The building departments have a ‘first come, first served’ system and we simply get in line. Occasionally it can take up to 3 months for permit issuance.
How soon does construction start once we have the permit?
Once your permit is issued, we can potentially begin construction within 2 weeks. We move as quickly as we can. You are encouraged to follow along with our schedule by viewing the GANTT in BuilderTrend.
How long will it take to complete my project?
There is not a single answer here as each project is very different. However, we move as quickly as we can within the conditions we have. You can follow the schedule in BuilderTrend by viewing the GANTT.
