How a job
goes
What happens from your first call to the final inspection, and what it is like to work with Andy along the way.
You call, text or send the form
Tell Andy what you have in mind and where you live. He calls or texts you back by the end of the next working day, himself. There is no call center and no sales team.
Andy comes to your house
He walks the space with you, listens to what you want, and looks at what the house allows. He does not price a job from a photo or over the phone.
One price, in writing
For a typical basement Andy can often work up the price in a couple of hours, sometimes before he leaves. Anything unusual, like a fireplace or a special material, he prices out with real numbers first.
Plans, permit and schedule
If you have the plans for your house, that makes it easy. If not, we have working drawings made. Then we pull the building permit, before any work starts, and set the schedule, and every trade on the job gets its dates up front.
The work, and walk-throughs whenever Andy is there
Framing, then HVAC, then plumbing with the bathroom finishes right after, then electrical, sheetrock, trim and paint, and the flooring last. Any time Andy is at the house you can walk through the work with him and go over your questions. Nothing has to be scheduled.
Inspections and the last day
Every inspection is passed. We go over the work ourselves before the inspector does, the way we do on every house we build.
What working with Andy is like
Andy has built homes in Tooele County for about thirty years, mostly for people who heard about him from a friend or a neighbor. Some families have had him build three houses. He answers his own phone, and we will tell you plainly what something costs rather than cut a corner to reach a number.
- A free visit before any price
- One price, in writing
- The same subcontractors Andy has worked with for decades
- Walk-throughs with Andy whenever he is at the house
- The permit pulled before work starts, and every inspection passed
- About two jobs a month, so yours gets his attention
- Licensed and insured
What helps the job go well
Know roughly what you want, or be ready to choose when the time comes. The sooner the choices are made, the sooner the price is final and the work moves. If you want it to match upstairs, that makes it easy.
If the plan changes
The price is for the plan you agreed on. If you add something partway through, Andy tells you what it costs before he builds it. If a change does not cost him more, it does not cost you more.
Start with a free visit.
Tell Andy which project you have in mind. He calls or texts back by the end of the next working day.
