DESIGN/BUILD
Integrated Approach
We seek to design and build the most beautiful, affordable, energy-efficient structures possible. We work with you to
PROCESS
CONSULTATION
Pick up the phone and give us a call! We'll set up a time to meet and tour your property where we can discuss your vision and project goals and make sure Balance Point can meet them effectively.
INITIAL DESIGN
This is where the real work begins and we get into the nitty gritty with your project vision. We perform a feasibility study, look into zoning considerations, build a model of the current structure as well as schematic design options. We will also provide initial budgetary numbers during this phase.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
In this phase, we will be completing the documents required for permitting, specifying the building envelope and assembly details, mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, fixtures and cabinetry, and all the behind-the-scenes components that make up a building.
CONSTRUCTION
Where the rubber hits the road! Permits in hand, this is when we begin building your project. We've mostly completed design, but may have lefts some finishes for specification during this phase.
NEW CONSTRUCTION
We're focused on designing and building simple, affordable, and beautiful homes made from non-toxic materials. Our houses are energy-efficient and extremely comfortable and you can rest assured that your new home will be a refuge for generations to come.
ADUS, DETACHED OFFICES AND BACKYARD COTTAGES
We apply the same standards to our small buildings as we do to our larger builds. There's a great need for more urban infill dwelling options, as well as work-from-home arrangements that are separate from the main living space. Contact us for more information on these!
RETROFITS/ADDITIONS/REMODELS
Whether you are looking for a kitchen or bathroom remodel, add another room to an existing residence, or perform a deep-energy retrofit, look no further. Our experience with high performance building makes us the perfect choice if you are looking for energy efficiency and healthy building materials.
