Your ideas, goals, and budget are a great place start!

The proposal is only the beginning. It is expected that improvements/changes will be made throughout the planning and
construction process. These changes are addressed by addenda to the contract. Minor changes may require no addendum, while major
changes may require substantial changes to the projected budget.

It depends on the scope of work on your project. Most construction jobs need architect’s plans. We are happy to work with any architect you choose.
