Built Without Surprises
Our turn-key process protects your time, investment, and peace of mind from first sketch to final key.
The Pivot Approach
Building a custom home should be one of life’s great adventures, not a source of stress or uncertainty. Too often, homeowners find themselves managing trades, navigating budgets, and solving problems they never expected. At Pivot, we believe true turn-key service means you never have to become your own general contractor. Our process exists to bring clarity, protect your investment, and ensure the journey of building your home feels as exceptional as the home itself.
1. Initial Site Visit
Every project begins with a visit to your land or property. We listen to your vision, evaluate the site’s opportunities and challenges, and discuss how your goals can come to life.
2. Complimentary Opinion of Cost
We provide a high-level cost opinion based on your vision and site conditions. This early insight helps you make informed decisions before diving deeper into design.
3. Professional Services Agreement
Once you’re ready to move forward, we enter a Professional Services Agreement. This covers detailed design work, engineering, and precise estimating so your project begins with clarity and confidence.
4. Design Development
Working closely with you, we develop detailed drawings and specifications that reflect your vision, budget, and lifestyle. Every decision is made to ensure beauty, function, and enduring quality.
5. Budget
With design in place, we prepare a detailed, line-by-line budget. This ensures you know exactly where your investment is allocated before any construction begins.
6. Contract Documents
Once you’re comfortable with the budget, we prepare, review, and sign your Contract Documents.
7. Pre-Construction
Before breaking ground, we handle permitting, finalize selections, and build a precise schedule. This sets the stage for an efficient, well-managed construction phase.
8. Construction
During construction, we keep you informed at every milestone. Our team manages trades, ensures quality, and solves challenges behind the scenes so your experience remains seamless.
9. After You Move In
Our relationship doesn’t end at move-in. We stand behind our work, schedule follow-ups to address any settling issues, and remain available for future needs. True craftsmanship means standing by what we build.
