Our Project Management Process
Project management turns a great idea into a finished space. Here’s how we guide your project from first conversation to final walkthrough.
Discovery & Scope Setting
We start with a conversation about your space, goals, budget, and timeline. Together we define the scope of work so everyone is clear on what success looks like.
Detailed Planning
We create a project schedule, confirm materials and lead times, and coordinate subcontractors. This planning phase is where we prevent most delays and surprises.
Build Oversight
During construction, we manage daily coordination, answer questions quickly, and keep communication flowing between you, the crew, and all trades.
Quality Control
Throughout the build, we review framing, layout, finishes, and details to ensure the work matches the plans and reflects the level of craftsmanship we’re known for.
Final Walkthrough & Punch List
We walk the space together, create a clear punch list if needed, and make sure every detail is addressed before we call the project complete.
