We also draw on key trades for reality checks. Then, when design is near permit stage, we get quotes from our subcontractors and present the costing to you. With this information, you can make informed choices of how to proceed. Once the construction phase begins, we do bi-weekly comparisons of actual costs relative to the projected costs. This information gives you a solid basis when considering changes, extra work or potential deletions.
