Our Process
|
Every building company has its own processes and High Country Carpentry is no different. What does single us out from our competitors will always be our…
The steps below are a general guide to the processes we follow. |
|
1. Planning
First you get to know us, and our capabilities, and we talk about your project.
Whether you are renovating a single room or looking at building a one-of-a-kind high country station, we will listen carefully to every detail.
2. Building Design and Schedules
We will work together to develop plans, schedules and pricing for your project.
If the project requires a skilled architect or draftsman we can direct you to a professional who is best suited to your needs.
3. Permits and Consents
Once a building agreement is signed, we will apply for permits, order materials and start scheduling subcontractors.
You will be well informed as throughout the project we will meet with you to review progress and discuss the next stages.
3. Site Preparation and Base
During site preparation we bring in diggers to prepare the ground for building, rough-in the driveway and install electricity, water and waste-water infrastructure.
Once these are in place the concrete slab is poured to form the necessary foundation.
4. Frame Work and Roof
The frame for your home may be built on-site or pre-ordered. Once up you will now be able to walk through the rooms for the first time and get a feel for your new space.
The roof framing follows and roofing is installed to protect your building.
5. Cladding
The building is wrapped up and the cladding is attached. Your cladding choices may be brick, timber, baby iron or plaster render.
At this time the inside finishing also begins.
6. Services
The services (power, water, phone etc) are connected by our subcontractors.
7. Finishing
The interior lining, gib stopping, painting, tiling, appliances and fixtures, lights and carpet are installed.
8. Inspections
One of the final steps include final building inspection, electrical codes of compliance, punch lists, clean up and landscaping.
9. Landscaping
Completed landscaping and driveway will add the finishing touch and your home is ready for you to enjoy.
