The Fortified Building Process
Let's Talk!
Contact, Levi Aberle, President & Builder of your Fortified Building by calling 303.563.9374
We will discuss project details and end goals, with free project estimate.
Details
You've decided to move forward with Fortified Buildings. Within 5 days of initial phone call we will schedule a time to meet at your project location - This is a paid visit to evaluate the land and determine if the project is feasible at the location.
Fortified Buildings will provide a written quote including finish time frame - which depends upon the complexity of the project. Once the client acknowledges and signs the quote, we will send a client-contractor contract. Depending upon funds or financing start date can begin one month to 6 months to "break ground." Simple projects can typically be move-in ready within a month of construction start to full home projects up to 12 months.
Payment Terms
We have a list of preferred banks to use; Fortified Buildings currently does not offer financing. Payment terms depend upon if the client is using a bank; if so, the bank and the contractor will reach an agreement. If self-financing, the building package (lumber, concrete, windows, doors, roofing) will be a 45% deposit amount of the project.
Building Design
Fortified Buildings offer building design consultation with floor plans, including 3 renditions of the floor plan included once hired. Clients may also hire their own architect or use one from our network of architects.
*Architects are typically booked out 6 months in advance, so consider if time is of the essence.
