The Revival Process
How a Revival Project Works
The point of our process is to make the expensive decisions while they are still easy to change. Seven steps take a project from first conversation to a finished home.
The Process, Step by Step
Discovery Call
A short call with our dedicated pre-construction team: where the home is located, your timeline, and an honest read on whether we're the right fit. If we're not the right builder for the project, we'll say so and point you to who is. Ten to fifteen minutes, no pressure.
Room-by-Room Deep Dive
We walk the whole project together, room by room: what stays, what goes, what you have a taste for in selections. A deep dive into the details until we fully understand the scope, and you see how we think, before you commit to anything.
The Red Light Review
Our signature early-pricing meeting. We show you the starting point we see, the assumptions and allowances carrying it, comparable work where useful, and the pieces most likely to move the number. It is not a proposal and it is not a contract. It is the point where both sides decide whether the project deserves a deeper dive.
Pre-Construction
The paid planning phase. We get on site, bring in the specialty trades the job actually needs, review plans for constructability, work through selections and allowances, test options, and revise pricing as the design develops. The goal is to spend time here so we spend less time improvising during construction. Your agreement states the retainer and any construction credit that applies.
Green Light Review & Contract
We put the developed scope and detailed pricing in front of you, including alternates where there are real choices to make. You choose the final direction, we execute the construction agreement, and the project moves into permitting, procurement, and scheduling. Green means go.
Demo Day
Permits in hand, schedule locked, and construction begins. Daily Buildertrend photo logs start the same day, with 24/7 access to your schedule and messages, plus biweekly walkthroughs in person or by video.
Home Sweet Home
A thorough final walkthrough to make sure every detail is right, then the keys are back in your hand and the space is move-in ready. Twelve months later, we check in to make sure it all still works the way it should.
The Fixed-Price Promise
The number is locked before a single hammer swings.
We use fixed-price construction agreements because a client should know what they are buying before demo starts. Pre-Construction is where we tighten scope, selections, allowances, and trade pricing enough to stand behind the number. If you later request added scope, you see the price and schedule impact before that extra work proceeds.
Any requested extra after the construction agreement is signed is documented, priced, and approved before that added work proceeds.
The Trust Layer
Seven guarantees stand behind every step.
Fixed price. A locked start date. Same-day communication. Biweekly walkthroughs. A clean site. A 12-month check-in. A builder for life.
