Managing Change Orders in Custom Home Construction

SHARE

In custom home building, change is part of the journey. Some design modifications are easy to implement, while others can be costly or even disrupt schedules. My approach ensures that clients are deeply involved in the design phase, which minimizes last-minute surprises. But I also understand that as homes take shape, needs may evolve.

When a change order comes up during construction, transparency is key. I always assess the cost and schedule impact before proceeding. Simple changes, like adjusting paint color or fixtures, can usually be handled with minimal disruption. However, structural changes, such as moving walls or altering plumbing, require careful consideration due to their impact on permits and timeline.

With over 40 years in the industry, I often suggest alternatives that meet clients’ goals more efficiently. This expertise ensures that modifications align with both the budget and the vision. Clear communication about these changes is crucial. It keeps the project on track, aligned with your expectations, and within financial reach.
