OUR
5 STEP
DESIGN-BUILD
PROCESS
From Concept to Completion. We're With You, Every Step Of The Way
STEP 1
CONSULTATION
An initial meeting is scheduled to discuss our process and what you can expect when designing and building your custom home with Paquin Design Build.​
We discuss your homes location and an outline is developed to lay out build-time and other related information. During this phase of the project budgets are also discussed and explored.
SITE VISIT
STEP 2
A representative of Paquin Design Build will visit and review your site selection.
​
A meeting will be set to discuss local regulations, waterfront building restrictions, HOA/neighborhood regulations, setbacks and/or height restrictions that will affect the design of your home.
THE DESIGN PHASE
STEP 3
At this stage of the process, we discuss your ideas on home style, room design, fixtures, colors, interior style and finishes. Our designers and draftsman use what is discussed as a launching pad for the design process.
The drafting and design stage of your new custom home begins, and initial designs are presented. From there, we discuss and implement any revisions you may have.
THE PAPERWORK
STEP 4
Specifications, Estimates, Permits & Contracts
Presentation of specifications and an estimate of the job are presented to the client. This includes details of fixtures, finishes, selections, and items such as appliances.
Once clients confirm financing and confirm a construction loan, construction plans and specifications are finalized and completed
At this point, we sign a building contract and permits are filed for approval.
CONSTRUCTION
STEP 5
This is when the fun truly begins. The construction phase of your home is the final step in the development of your dream.
​
Time frames do vary and are based on a number of variables such as; the size of the home, location, industry lead time & because this is Maryland, weather. Given our experience and strong relations with the counties in Maryland we build in, our design to build times are some of the best in the state.
​
Nothing pleases us more than delivering the keys to a new home, to our clients. Our goal is always to deliver on time!
