So you want to build a custom home but don’t know how or where to start? Don’t worry, you are not alone and we are here for you! At Ritchie Home Builders, we offer a collaborative building process supporting our clients during every stage of the build. Our clients often find it beneficial for our team to be involved early in the building process to discuss ideas, provide insight on materials and methods and to plan construction timelines and budget.

01.
Consultation and Planning
Our custom home building process begins with a consultation to discuss your vision, budget, timeline and build site with our team. We will also consider what site services are available to ensure we provide an accurate budget further in the process.
02.
Design Development and Pre-Construction
After our initial consultation, we will work together with our trusted draftsperson to create a preliminary design concept. Upon approval of the design concept, our draftsperson will create construction plans and drawings that our team will use to generate a detailed and accurate budget. A formal construction agreement will be presented to the client at the end of this phase.
03.
Construction
Once the construction agreement is approved we can begin the construction phase of the build which starts with helping our clients obtain the necessary permits from local authorities. From there, our team of experts and skilled tradespeople bring your custom home to life using superior quality materials and innovative construction techniques. Throughout construction, our team maintains open communication, providing regular updates and addressing any questions or concerns that may arise. Quality control and assurance is paramount at every stage of construction ensuring each custom home not only meets but exceeds minimum building code and industry standards. Our team works closely with our clients to assist in making design and material selections even when the endless choices can seem overwhelming.
04.
Warranty and Home Care
Our warranty coverage starts before construction is even complete by way of a Pre-Delivery Inspection walkthrough prior to closing. By conducting a thorough final walkthrough, we can ensure that every new home meets our clients’ expectations and we identify any remaining items that need to be addressed before taking possession. It is also a chance for our team to explain the various systems throughout the home and show our clients how to properly use and maintain those systems. All custom homes built by Ritchie Home Builders are accompanied with a 7-year limited warranty. We continually go above and beyond to ensure our clients are satisfied with their new home.
