I typically tell clients about a week for smaller projects. For a full house remodel or addition, it can be up to a few weeks. Prices are constantly changing, and there is a lot that goes into bidding a large project.

I have an architect who draws all of my plans. The process usually takes about a month from the first meeting with him, to site measurements, to designing the space, to having a drawing set complete.

The City of Tucson and Pima County have been quicker the past year in getting approved plans back. Even with a full house remodel or guest house, we have been seeing about a 2-3 week turnaround time.

This is the hardest question to answer as it is so loaded. It depends on many factors that it is hard to give one answer. The short answer is for a new build in today’s market, for a basic, tract-home style, nothing fancy house will start at $250 per square foot. And it can go up very quickly from there.

I try my best to bid a job as complete and as thorough as possible, that way the price I give you up front is what you can expect to pay. There are sometimes unforeseen factors that arise once we start, however. Water damage, mold, incorrect building practices prior to our arrival are just a few. I always keep the client informed to any and all changes and work with them to keep costs down.

This is another hard question to answer because every job is different. Some remodels are face lifts where we can be in and out in a couple of weeks. Other remodels are complete tear outs that can take 6 months or more. Just know that once we start a job, my crew and subcontractors will work diligently to complete your job in a timely manner.

Yes! I employ a crew that can complete everything needed on your remodel. On larger jobs such as a guest house, I use subcontractors. They are licensed professionals who know exactly what needs to be done and who can get it done effectively and quickly.
