The Journey from Concept to Completion: Building with CBS Developments
Building a home is an exciting journey filled with anticipation, creativity, and careful planning. At CBS Developments, we guide you through every step, ensuring your vision becomes a reality. Here’s an overview of our comprehensive process, from concept to completion.
1. Initial Consultation
Our journey begins with an initial consultation where we discuss your ideas, needs, and budget. This meeting helps us understand your vision and the specific requirements for your dream home. Whether you have a clear concept or need inspiration, our team is here to help.
2. Site Selection and Evaluation
If you haven’t yet purchased a block of land, we assist you in finding the perfect location. Our experts evaluate potential sites, considering factors such as orientation, soil quality, topography, and local council regulations to ensure your chosen site is ideal for your home design.
3. Design Your Home
Once the site is selected, our talented design team works closely with you to create a customised home design. We provide:
- Preliminary Designs: Initial sketches and layouts to visualise your ideas.
- Detailed Drawings: Comprehensive plans including site plan, floor plan, elevations, and electrical layout.
- 3D Renderings: Visual representations to help you see how your home will look and feel.
4. Planning and Approvals
We handle all necessary planning and approval processes, including:
- Soil and Contour Tests: Ensuring your home will have a solid foundation.
- Council Approvals: Navigating local council regulations and submitting all required documentation.
- Compliance Checks: Ensuring your design meets all relevant building codes and standards.
5. Fixed Price Contract
Once the design is finalised and approvals are in place, we present you with a detailed fixed price contract. This contract includes:
- Full Set of Working Drawings: All plans required for construction.
- Detailed Specifications: A comprehensive list of materials, fixtures, and finishes.
- Transparent Costing: Clear breakdown of all costs involved, ensuring no hidden surprises.
6. Pre-Construction Phase
During this phase, you’ll make important decisions about the interior and exterior finishes of your home, including:
- Colour Selection: Choosing the colour scheme for walls, flooring, cabinetry, and more.
- Material Selection: Selecting materials for countertops, tiles, roofing, and other key elements.
- Fixture Selection: Picking out fixtures and fittings for bathrooms, kitchens, and lighting.
7. Construction
With all plans and selections finalised, construction begins. Our dedicated construction supervisor provides regular updates and coordinates all aspects of the build, ensuring high-quality workmanship and adherence to timelines. Key stages include:
- Site Preparation: Clearing and preparing the site for building.
- Foundation and Framing: Laying the foundation and constructing the framework of your home.
- Interior and Exterior Work: Installing plumbing, electrical systems, insulation, and finishes.
- Final Touches: Completing landscaping, installing fixtures, and performing a thorough clean.
8. Regular Inspections
Throughout the construction process, we conduct regular site inspections to ensure quality and address any issues promptly. We also invite you to inspect the site at key milestones to see your home taking shape and provide feedback.
9. Hand-Over
Before completion, we conduct a final independent inspection to ensure everything is perfect. Your construction supervisor will walk you through your new home, explaining all features and systems. This hand-over process ensures you’re fully informed and satisfied with every aspect of your new home.
10. Post-Completion Support
Our commitment doesn’t end at hand-over. We provide a 13-week warranty and maintenance period to address any issues that may arise. Our team is always available to support you, ensuring your new home meets your expectations long after you’ve moved in.
