Learn about our process and the benefits of working with a leading engineering consulting team.

1
Initial Meeting

The process begins with a comprehensive consultation where we discuss your project goals, vision, and specific requirements. Our team will assess feasibility, answer any technical questions, and outline the necessary steps to bring your project to life. This meeting helps us understand your expectations and ensures we create a solution that aligns with your needs and budget.

2
Site Visit and Measurement

A licensed engineer visits your property to conduct a thorough assessment and take precise measurements. This step is crucial in understanding the existing structural conditions and gathering accurate data for the design phase. Our team ensures that all measurements are meticulously recorded to create a seamless and structurally sound plan.

3
Design

Using the insights from the site visit, we develop a tailored design that meets both aesthetic and functional requirements. Our team carefully balances innovation with structural integrity, ensuring your project aligns with building codes and best practices. We also work closely with you during this phase to incorporate any feedback and refine the design as needed.

4
Technical Drawings and Design Presentation

Once the design is finalized, we prepare detailed technical drawings that provide a clear blueprint for construction. These plans include structural specifications, material recommendations, and other critical elements required for a smooth building process. We present these drawings to you, explaining each component and making any necessary revisions before submission.

5
Building Permit Application

Navigating permit approvals can be complex, but our team handles the entire process for you. We compile and submit all necessary documentation to the appropriate authorities, ensuring compliance with local building codes and regulations. Our expertise in permit applications helps prevent delays, keeping your project on track for timely approval.

6
Hand-off to Builders and Construction Teams

Once the permits are approved, we provide your builders and contractors with all the necessary documents and technical guidance to begin construction. Our team remains available for any clarifications or adjustments needed during the build. This seamless transition ensures that your project moves forward efficiently and according to plan.
