Framework Solutions

Getting Started

• Our first step is to understand your goals and expectations. As a prospective client, you may have a rough idea of what you are hoping to achieve in a construction project as well as expectations for cost and timeframe.

• As we learn more about your individual needs, several solutions will emerge.  We‘ll work together with you to select the best option for you and then begin the planning phase.

Project Planning

• Careful project planning is extremely important as it will save you time and money. During this phase we will define a high level plan and identify key components and critical interdependencies. We’ll also work together with you to answer some important questions such as: 

• What is the price range for your project? 
• What will your home look like when we’re done?
• Are there ways to segment the work into phases that can be managed and funded as separate projects? 
• Finally, what are the finishing details that will give your home that special look and feel you envision?

Developing the Proposal

• Once you decide to go forward with Framework Solutions, we will develop a more detailed cost estimate and schedule in the form of a draft proposal.  The draft will contain information to help you make choices for the scope and sequence of your project.
• After the scope is agreed upon, we will produce a formal proposal.  Our formal proposals often include detailed drawings, photos, a list of allowances, a list of what is included as well as a list of what is not included.
• At this stage, we will also provide a timetable of events or milestones as well as a payment schedule.

• Once you approve the formal proposal, we will launch the construction phase of the project.  Now it’s time to turn your vision into reality!
• During the construction phase you will be intimately involved in the selection of materials, appliances, fixtures, colors, textures and a variety of other important details. To simplify these choices for you, we will offer as much help as you would like to accept.
• Should you decide to alter the plan in a substantial way, we will provide you with a change request that will explain the impact to the current proposal.  Once you authorize the change request, we will update the plan.  Again, we will help you make these decisions.
• We don't consider the project completed until you review our work and sign off on the end result.

Post Construction

• We hope to add you to our growing list of satisifed customers.
• We will be available for warranty support, punch list work and general questions regarding any of the materials, appliances and fixtures we install.
