Design-Build Process

One accountable path from idea to move-in.

Six steps that put the right decisions in the right order — so the expensive surprises are caught before the foundation, not after the framing.

  1. Discovery & Site Review

    We walk the lot together — site conditions, setbacks, coastal elevation requirements, utility access — before a dollar is spent on design.

  2. Scope & Budget Alignment

    Program, priorities, and a realistic budget range — pinned down before design locks. Expensive surprises start as early assumptions; we surface them first.

  3. Design & Selections

    We coordinate with your architect or designer and track every selection — finishes, fixtures, appliances, field notes — in one organized place.

  4. Permits & Pre-Construction

    Permitting, engineering coordination, trade scheduling — all managed by us. You receive a build timeline before ground breaks.

  5. Construction & Updates

    Weekly updates without chasing. Milestone photos, field notes, and schedule changes communicated in plain language throughout the build.

  6. Punch List & Move-In

    We walk the finished home together, address every item, and hand you the keys to a home that's exactly what we agreed to build.

AI in our process

More visibility, fewer mystery gaps.

Palmetto integrates AI into our project management workflow to keep selections, timeline dependencies, field notes, and owner updates organized as the build progresses.

What this looks like in your build

  • Before design locks — Pre-planning surfaces costly decisions early, before changes get expensive
  • During selections — Finishes, fixtures, and field notes tracked in one place so nothing falls through
  • During construction — Your build timeline updates as work happens, not when someone remembers to call
  • At every milestone — Plain-language owner updates so you always know where the project stands
