When starting a build, the process can feel overwhelming and confusing.
The question we get asked the most is how do you budget for a new build and what is included.
Most just think of the core construction costs:
Site preparation and excavation
Foundations and concrete work
Framing and structural work
Roofing
Exterior walls, cladding, windows, and doors
Insulation and drywall
Flooring, painting, and finishes
Cabinets, countertops, and fixtures
What often is overlooked:
Mechanical and utility
Permits and professional fees
Landscaping and fencing
Appliances
And truly, so much more is included.
