STEP #1

Initial Consultation

Every successful project begins with a conversation. In our initial consultation, we take the time to listen carefully to your needs, desires, and aspirations for your new custom home. We encourage you to share your ideas, inspiration, and any specific requirements you may have. We’ll discuss your lifestyle, budget, and timeline to ensure we have a clear understanding of your vision. We’ll also introduce you to our team and our commitment to quality. This is where we start to understand what building a house cost will be for your specific project.

STEP #2

Design & Budget

Collaborating with leading architects and designers, we transform your ideas into a tangible custom home design. We present you with preliminary plans and renderings, allowing you to visualize your future home. Simultaneously, we develop a detailed budget, outlining the costs associated with each aspect of the project, providing clarity on the total construction cost or building cost per square foot. We are committed to transparency and work closely with you to ensure the design aligns with your financial parameters. We are also a Baeumler Approved builder, which additionally proves our commitment to quality.

STEP #3

Permits and Approvals

Building a custom home in Vancouver and the GVA involves navigating a complex web of permits and approvals. Our experienced team handles the entire permitting process, securing all necessary approvals from municipal authorities. We ensure your project complies with all applicable building codes and zoning regulations, giving you peace of mind. This is a crucial step for all companies that build houses, and we have a proven track record.

STEP #4

Pre-Construction & Interior Design

Before we break ground, we finalize all project details and guide you through the exciting process of interior design. You’ll select finishes, fixtures, materials, and make cabinetry design choices that reflect your personal style and enhance your home’s functionality. Explore our projects for inspiration. Our interior design experts will help you maximize your budget, leveraging our established vendor relationships to provide you with cost savings on materials and services.

STEP #5

Construction Management

Our skilled project managers and craftsmen bring your custom home to life with meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to superior workmanship. We maintain a clean and organized job site, adhere to strict safety standards, and provide regular updates on progress. As experienced custom home builders, we don’t cut corners, and we’re dedicated to delivering the highest quality construction, on time and within budget.

STEP #6

Post Construction

Our commitment to you doesn’t end when construction is complete. We conduct a thorough final walkthrough with you to ensure every detail meets your expectations. We provide a comprehensive orientation to your new home, explaining its systems and features. Every home we build comes with a 2-5-10 home warranty, and we are always available to answer your questions and provide ongoing support.

Fixed-Price Management: Cost Certainty for Your Project

Unlike most builders, Larch Construction offers a fixed-price management fee, not a percentage of construction costs. This provides you with cost certainty and exceptional value.
