Process
Your Building Journey with Swanson Constructions
When you choose to build with us, you’re not stepping into the unknown. We take the guesswork out of renovating and bring clarity to every step of the process. With fixed-price contracts, professional guidance, and a hands-on team, we make sure you're always in control.
Here’s what your journey will look like:
Initial Enquiry
Whether you reach out by phone, email, website, or via our social media, we take the time to understand your vision, answer your questions, and make sure we’re the right fit for your renovation. From day one, you’ll speak directly with a professional builder—not a salesperson.
Site Meeting & Discovery
We meet with you on-site, free of charge, to talk through your goals, priorities, and non-negotiables. This is where we start to understand the full scope of your project—from lifestyle needs to layout ideas—so we can give you honest advice on what’s possible within your budget.
Concept & Feasibility
Here, we offer a low-cost Concept Agreement. This gives you access to our team and our architect to prepare a custom sketch design and a rough project estimate. It’s a smart first step that gives you a clear visual plan and a sense of what your renovation could look like—before making a larger commitment.
Preliminary Agreement
We take on a consulting role during this stage, working closely with your architect, engineers, certifiers, and other professionals to keep things running smoothly. We manage the required site investigations, engineering reports, approvals, and selections. At the end of this stage, you'll receive a detailed fixed-price construction quote—so there are no surprises when it's time to build.
Fixed Price Contract
Once everything is finalised, we present a Master Builders fixed-price building contract. All inclusions, timelines, and scope are clearly set out, so you know exactly what to expect. This is your peace of mind—clear, locked-in pricing before any construction starts.
Construction Begins
Now it's our team’s turn to bring your vision to life. Our capable project team and trusted trades get to work, following the plans and standards we’ve all agreed to. We maintain high quality and attention to detail across every part of the build. We keep you in the loop throughout, so you know how your project is progressing.
Handover
Once your renovation is complete, we walk you through the finished work and hand over the keys to your newly transformed home. You’ll receive a full handover pack including warranties and maintenance guides.
Aftercare Support
Our service doesn’t stop at handover. You’ll have direct access to our team during the maintenance period, with prompt support should anything need adjusting as you settle in.
Building with Confidence
At Swanson Constructions, we believe building your dream home should feel exciting—not overwhelming. With us, you can expect professionalism, clear communication, and a promise to complete your project on time and on budget.
