The Cleary Design-Build Process
Your Single Point Solution
Step 1
Initial Consultation & Design Agreement
Your journey starts with an initial in-home consultation, where we get to know each other and explore your vision for the project. We take the time to understand your needs and wants, ensuring our goals and values align. Once we earn your trust, we enter into a design agreement and begin our adventure together.
Step 2
Meet Your Team & Kick Off Design
Meet your dream team! Our project developers, architects, estimators, and interior designers visit your home to begin bringing your vision to life. We take photos and measurements, discuss layout, materials, and any inspiration you wish to share as we begin creating for you.
Step 3
Design Presentation & Project Scope
After learning what you love, we create concepts for you, keeping a close eye on your project pricing. We then meet you in our office to present plan ideas, a specific scope of work, and estimated costs to help you choose your favorite. 3D renderings are created during this stage to bring your design to life, helping you visualize your project long before construction begins.
Step 4
Material Selections & Trade Partner Guidance
With your ideal plan in place, it is time to review fixtures and material selections. We accompany our trusted trade partners to your home to confirm both scope and cost and ensure alignment of your vision and budget—doing our best to control surprises or change orders along the way.
Step 5
Contract & Construction
Once your plans, scope of work, and pricing are finalized, it is time to move forward with your construction agreement. We create construction documents for your project, secure permits, and make sure everything is in place to ensure a successful project. Our expert project management team oversees every step with precision and care, keeping you informed all along the way. We are committed to top-quality craftsmanship, on time completion, and a smooth, enjoyable experience from beginning to end.
Step 6
Project Completion & Celebration
When your project is complete, we celebrate your new space together! And our commitment does not stop when the dust settles—we are here for you at any time to support your warranty, answer questions, and offer guidance. Our goal is your happiness, confidence in the finished project, and a relationship you can count on.
