Our Process

Our Approach to the Design-Build Process

We take great pride in our work and believe there should be processes in place to ensure high-quality
results. We work hard to make sure that we provide each client with exactly the finished product they expect,
for the price that they expected it to be. In order to provide accurate quotes and timelines, we ask a lot of
question up front.

A Conversation

We’ll ask about your project, budget, and time frame to see if Basement Builders is a good fit for your project.
Short Survey
If it looks like we might be a good fit, we’ll ask you to complete a brief survey to help us with the details.

GOOD FIT!

Field Appointment

We’ll stop by your home to talk about your goals for the project, gather information about the
existing structure, take photos, and talk about the look and feel of the finishes. All of this information will help our estimator construct a design proposal that meets your budget and your needs.

Design Proposal

We’ll share a design proposal that contains the basic scope of work and the project price range. This pertains to the design portion of your project only.

Design Phase- Preliminary Proposal

After you sign off on the design proposal you’ll meet with our design team to select finishes with an interior
designer. Our owner and designer will visit you to gather measurements and provide a professional draft.

Final Estimate

Your final estimate is based on plans, your design choices, and a thorough estimating process through a
calculated spreadsheet . This estimate represents the fixed price of your project. It holds no surprises and
provides a clear scope of work. It is an honest, thorough document.
