Design-Build Process
From Design to construction, all under one roof.
Legacy Builders Group is a full-service design-build-remodel firm
We serve many of the finest communities surrounding Cincinnati — Montgomery, Hyde Park, Madeira, Indian Hill, West Chester, Mason, and Northern Kentucky to name just a few.
Our design-build teams do far more than just construction — we’re a one-stop provider from design and planning through the completion of your project.
The Legacy Way
We refer to our process as “The Legacy Way.” The Legacy Way isn’t just about the integrity and expertise you can expect on our home remodels; it’s also our promise to make every aspect of a project as simple and streamlined as possible. Benefits of our proven design-build approach include:
- Single source of responsibility
- A relationship built on trust and respect
- Reduced uncertainty
- Effective project management
- Organized trade walk-throughs
- Efficient and time-saving systems
Our talented and creative design teams can help you plan the perfect space that works with your life and your budget. If you are already working with a designer or architect, we’ll be glad to partner with them at any stage and can provide valuable input on the cost and construction of your project.
Our Process
The Legacy Way consists of four stages — with respect, honesty, and open communication at the heart of each one.
Stage 1:
Consultation
This stage is all about getting to know each other. Our designers will uncover what you want from your new space, what you don’t want, and what your dream addition, remodel, or renovation would include. We’ll discuss the feasibility of the project and general design solutions.
Stage 2:
Concept
The purpose of the concept stage is to help define the scope of work for your project. During this stage we will review potential design ideas. We will use a variety of techniques: sketches, pictures, produced building plans, and completed project profiles to begin to bring your dream project to life. We will generate preliminary specifications with an expected budget range for your kitchen, bath, addition, renovation or new home. A design-build agreement will be presented and will be the next step to moving to the design stage. Our overall objective is to provide you with the necessary information to assist you in making a great decision for you and your family.
Stage 3:
Design
The design stage is where creativity and ingenuity are put to great use. Our design team will review the concept and schedule a site visit. After careful measurements, they’ll get to work designing your dream space. Our designers will guide you through the selection process and will aid in picking out all the fixtures, materials, and other products that will be installed. Our carefully selected tradespeople will walk through your home to gather all of the details they need, and we’ll present you with a fixed-priced contract to build. Once that is signed, we will begin planning for the project to start.
Stage 4:
Construction
The real fun begins here! We’ll start by securing all the necessary zoning and building permits and creating a project schedule that will be viewable on our online project management system. Our production manager will schedule a pre-construction meeting with you to talk about the dynamics of working in your home or on your site, and then we’ll begin construction. There will be project walk-throughs conducted with you throughout construction and a project close-out meeting when everything is completed.
The Legacy Way will provide you with peace of mind and a new, beautifully crafted living space that you can enjoy for years to come. Ready to get started? Contact us today!
