  • Kitchen with quartz counter and appliances, full bath with tub
  • Ductless mini-split and heat-pump water heater
  • Sewer and water connections up to 50 ft from the main house

Not included

  • Plan purchase from the designer
  • Solar (PV) system and fire sprinklers, if required
  • City permit, plan check, impact and school fees
  • Title 24 and HERS testing fees
  • The underground electrical feed from your main panel (priced after the walkthrough)

01

Check your lot

Send us your address. We look at setbacks, access, where the sewer and power will run, and which plan fits.

02

Site plan and permit

Pre-approved plans don't include your site plan. We coordinate it, the solar and any fire plans, and the permit submittal.

03

Written budget

A fixed scope for the building itself, with site work like trenching and utility runs priced from what we see on your lot.

04

Build and inspect

Foundation, framing, roof, utilities, insulation, finishes and the required inspections, through final.
