Design & Construction Process

Mueller Homes believes that the design and construction process is the important foundation upon which your entire custom home building experience is built.  Here are some highlights of our time-tested and proven design and construction processes.

Lot Assessment & Feasibility

A feasibility study is the best way to ensure that the lot location is well-suited for the type of home you want to build and your budget is realistic.  Enter into a pre-construction agreement for assesment process. 

Architectural Collaboration

By working collaboratively with your architect, we can help you with plans and design concepts that are realistically aligned with your budget.

Estimating

The most important part of the estimating process is ensuring you are comparing apples to apples.  We help overcome this challenge with our transparent approach to estimating, budgeting, and financing considerations.

Immersive Design

Our proprietary immersive design process provides an unparalled client experience. Utilizing a concierge approach, our team arcitulates your vision through the use of floor plans, elevations, 3D renderings, and mood boards.  We help you visualize your space by implementing selections like flooring, paint color, lighting, hardware fixtures, and furniture. This immersive design process creates efficiencies while allowing you to make more confident, informed decisions.

Construction Agreement

Your construction agreement is signed and we begin the permitting process to ensure compliance and obtain  approval with stamped drawings so that work can begin.  

Construction Begins

You will be assigned a dedicated project manager and segregated funds for your project.  Your concierge will assist with communication and site meetings. 

A Collaborative Approach

Architectural Design

Our construction process begins with a collaborative design process.  We assemble the team to discuss your desired goals and value-engineer any requirements to ensure the project can be built within the desired budget.  Once the construction agreement is signed, we will produce a complete construction schedule using our comprehensive technology platform.
