We Are Flexible!
We are very flexible, and will do everything possible to accommodate your needs.
We’ve developed a standardized three-step process for getting your project started – see below for details. The final step of the standard process results in a Construction Contract that includes a schedule, fixed price, and a defined scope of work.
Building your new project is an exciting and important endeavor, and GMH Construction wants the process to be as smooth and enjoyable as possible. That is why we provide each of our clients with access to a secure website with the details of their project.
Whether you are at home, at work, on the road, or on vacation, GMH Construction puts information at your fingertips about your selections, upgrades, financial decisions, questions, documents, photos, and more.
How To Get Started
At GMH Construction we use a three-step approach to help homeowners understand their options, improve the accuracy of project cost prior to the construction contract, and ultimately, maximize the return on the investment for the homeowner.
Step 1: Consultation
Meeting to discuss your project at your home allows us to identify the scope of the job and discuss pre-construction and renovation processes. We will then contact you for a follow-up appointment in approximately 2 to 3 weeks to present a Design Retainer. The Design Retainer outlines scope of work, project budget range, and estimated engagement time with our designers.
Step 2: The Design Process
The Design Retainer allows us to design intelligently and accurately estimate the project cost. This important work has great value: accurate budgets, excellent design, maximum return-on-investment, better planning by the contractor, and better decision making by the homeowner. A well-designed and well-built home is less expensive to live in, maintain, heat and cool.
Our designers will guide you through the decision making and selection process to achieve your renovation goals. By the end of the design process, we will have a finalized budget and scope of work to create a detailed Construction Contract.
Step 3: Construction Contract
Signing the Construction Contract is the final step which includes scheduling a start date for your project. We pride ourselves on creating accurate contracts, realistic schedules, and good quality-control to assure outstanding results. For most projects, we have a fixed price contract, which outlines the scope of work to be completed, and the cost to complete the job.
