-Local Restriction and Incentive Search
Additions and exterior changes require an assessment of local zoning regulations, building codes,
subdivision rules, and landmark designations. This assessment affects what we can build and where,
and any special construction or aesthetic requirements, or tax credit opportunities. Designs outside
of these restrictions and incentives may require a variance, exemption, or negotiation.

-Construction Documents
This step is the creation of documents
used to obtain building permits, and to
communicate the design intentand details

estimate is based on these drawings,
as well as final decisions concerning
cabinets, counter-tops, flooring, etc.

Demolition-
We take pains to make sure that safety and your health comes first.
Thats why we employ complete ventilation throughout the project, but
especially during the demolition of what is to be remodeled. We also seal
off the construction site with plastic to minimize dust and debris to other
parts of the house. This step is also important for design, as it is the first
time to see what is going on behind the walls.
