Process
The Process begins with Melissa, our office manager, setting the appointment for Tim or J.D to visit you at your home, at your convenience. At this appointment we will discuss your vision, expectations, materials selection, construction process, project possibilities, solutions, and if possible, the budget for the project. If the project is reasonable in design, material selection, and scope Tim or J.D. can provide an in house designed plan and estimate on site. If it is substantial in size, has a degree of difficulty and needs material specified and estimated, Tim or J D. will take the information obtained from the meeting and schedule a time to return with detailed design plans, material specifications and a comprehensive responsible estimate for the project. If the project requires specialty contractor, such as plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and electric, a separate meeting is arranged. This additional meeting will be scheduled for these trades to look at existing conditions to evaluate, and estimate how to incorporate existing conditions into the new design plan. Once the contract is approved and signed by both parties, a deposit is received and the job is put on the schedule. T.W. Ellis LLC at this time will obtain the permit from the local municipality. We will give you any design plans or information you may need to obtain home owner association approval. Tim or J.D will provide a design plan, for the trade professionals that will build your project for construction, if it is a deck or screened room. If your project is an addition, T.W. Ellis, LLC will have an independent architect provide the construction drawings. Once the plans are complete, a material take off is prepared, the permit and HOA are received, and then project is ready to be built. At this point the job is turned over to Barry, the project manager. Barry will call you to confirm a start date. On the morning of the start date, you will meet with Barry and the trade contractor assigned solely to your project from start to finish. During the meeting we will review the schedule, line of communication, and the project, are reviewed by everyone involved.
Every day Barry will visit your site to ensure the project is being built per design plan, material specifications, superior grade material is being used, and the project is built with quality craftsmanship. At the completion of the job Barry will meet with you to go over and close out the project. Once the project is closed out the warranty for that project is in effect.
