Step Six: Construction
This final step is often the most anxiety-producing part of the whole process. Up until now, your project has been confined to intense discussion, planning, and two dimensional renderings. When construction begins, your project moves from abstraction to a physical reality. Our involvement normally does not stop with the preparation of construction documents. We also provide construction administration services. These services may include assisting you in hiring the contractor, making site visits, reviewing and approving the contractor's applications for payment, and keeping you informed of the project's progress. Although we observe construction, the contractor is solely responsible for the construction methods, techniques, schedules, and procedures. The contractor supervises and directs the construction work on the project. This final phase usually constitutes 15% of our basic architectural fee.
