Our Process
We walk you through every stage — no surprises, no handoffs.
From First Call to Move-In
- 01
First Conversation
- Meet Jason or Bryan at your property — or by phone if you're still choosing a lot
- Discuss your vision, style preferences, and rough timeline
- We assess the site, answer your questions, and let you know what we're seeing
- 02
Design & Planning
- Choose or refine your floor plan — bring plans you've found, or we'll help you find a design that fits the lot
- Select your construction type: full log, hybrid, or stick-framed
- A deposit secures preliminary mill plans (for log homes, these come back in roughly two weeks)
- 03
Contract & Pricing
- Detailed estimate based on your plans, selections, and lot conditions
- Allowances for flooring, kitchen, appliances, and lighting — reviewed together before signing
- Clear milestone-based payment schedule so you know what's due and when
- 04
Construction
- Typical completion: 3–6 months depending on design complexity
- Weekly updates throughout the build — you're never in the dark
- After the roof stage, you'll meet with your electrician and kitchen designer to lock in final selections
- 05
Move-In
- Final walkthrough with Jason or Bryan — every item on the punch list closed before handoff
- Keys handed over, questions answered
"After we finish your home, the only way we want to come back to your house is as a guest."
— Bryan McIntyre, Co-Owner
