Our Process | Blair Ward Construction

How we work

No matter what stage you’re at, Blair Ward Construction can help. Some clients approach us with a first concept, others have nothing more than an idea of how they’d like to live. We can help develop a design for your project or partner with your chosen designer to give you the knowledge you need to confidently make a decision.

Step 1 - Initial Contact

After your initial contact, we will get in touch with you to have a good talk about your project and send you through a questionnaire to further understand your needs.
‍
After that, we will find a time that suits everyone to meet you in person at site.

Step 2 - First Meeting

Blair will meet with you in person and listen to your ideas and wish list. He will advise you on the best way to go about your project and give you suggestions on how to work with your architect.

During the consultation, we’ll be running through the following:

1. What is your vision for your build
2. Timeframes. When to start. How long it will take. Any possible holdups and how wecan avoid them.
3. Council. What consents you’ll need. How we can help you get them and how theprocess will work.
4. Pricing. What sort of costs you can expect and what type of contract will best suityou and your project.
5. Project management of your job and who does that.

Step 3 - Planning and Pricing

Once your plans are drawn, Blair Ward Construction will then undertake thorough pricing of your project. Our pricing is transparent and we will offer you ways to reduce costs if required.

Step 4 - Contract Signing

Once you have given the green light to the costs, we'll put together a contract for you to sign. At that time, your plans will be with the council, waiting for their thumbs up.

Step 5 - Construction Phase

Once consent has been granted we can start construction. We will hold weekly meetings with you onsite to talk about progress and any clarifications you may need.

Step 6 - Final Handover

Once Blair has done his final walk through and is happy we will hand you over the keys for you to move in and enjoy!
