Go With a Proven Process

At Paradigm Homes, we believe that effective planning is the only way to ensure every project is successful. That’s why we developed our proven Paradigm Process, which has allowed us to complete countless projects of all styles and sizes.

Our six-point process includes:

  • The Introduction Meeting: We’ll get to know you and your needs, and we’ll discuss your vision for your dream home.
  • The Design Stage: We’ll create a custom design that meets your needs and budget.
  • The Pre-construction Stage: We’ll obtain all necessary permits and approvals, and we’ll finalize the budget.
  • The Building Phase: We’ll build your home to the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
  • The Move-in Stage: We’ll help you move into your new home and ensure everything is perfect.
  • Post-building Phase: We’ll provide you with ongoing support and maintenance.

Our process is designed to keep our team on track and within budget, while also maintaining transparency for our clients from ideation to reality. Whether you want to build up or out, add rooms or improve the interior design, we can help.

FAQ

The Paradigm team has the expertise, network and creative strategy to construct your forever home. Below are some of our most often asked questions:

Because every project is unique, we don’t like to provide square footage pricing. Instead, we’ll discuss a reasonable budget during the introduction meeting, after we have a clear understanding of your vision.

The size, design, and location of the new home will be some of the biggest influencers when it comes to cost. The materials we use based on the fixtures and finishes you chose will also affect the total cost. 

On average, it takes between six and nine months to build a new home. Smaller homes can be completed faster, however, while larger structures can take considerably longer to build. Regardless of the precise duration we agree upon for your build, we’ll do everything in our power to complete it on time. 

You may think that working with an architect beforehand gives you a head start on building the house of your dreams. However, it may actually deter the process since building a home has so many moving parts that must all coordinate with one another. At Paradigm Homes, we can sketch, design, and build a project to completion all under one roof. This ensures that your project stays on track and on budget and that you have a single point of contact for all of your needs.
