Have you always dreamed about building a custom home in Long Beach? Do you love the idea of choosing every detail that goes into your home, rather than having to work around the quirks of an existing home? Do you have a style all your own or very specific ideas of the types of spaces and features you want your home to include? Maybe you even have a set of plans drawn up already and are just looking for the right custom home builder in Long Beach to take on the project.
The team at Scott McKee Construction is here to help, no matter what stage of the process you find yourself!
If you are just in the “dreaming” stage of the process and need to know how to proceed, we can help you get started. We can give you a good idea of what you can expect as far as the process and the timeline are concerned. If you’ve already hired an architect and are in the design phase of the process, we are available to meet with you and your architect so we can offer our perspective on how certain design decisions will play out in real life. We can also give you insight into how different choices will affect the project’s budget.
If you have a set of completed plans that has already been approved by the City of Long Beach, we would be happy to provide you with a bid on the job. Keep in mind that not all bids are created equal. Some general contractors have a tendency to underbid jobs in order to win them. Then, when the project is already underway, they come up with all kinds of reasons why they need more money to complete the job. At that point, you either need to agree to pay more or bring your project to a screeching halt while you try to find another contractor who is willing to finish a job that someone else started. Some shady contractors underbid jobs intentionally, while others are simply inexperienced and don’t realize until they’re well into the project that they are going to run out of money. An honest and experienced custom home builder, like Scott McKee Construction, knows how to properly bid a job so all details are accounted for in the bid. We provide every customer with a detailed proposal, so there is no question as to the scope of the work we will complete.
An experienced custom home builder will also know how to keep a project on schedule. If you’ve heard that “every” construction project goes over budget and exceeds the proposed timeline, just know that it doesn’t have to be this way! At Scott McKee Construction, our jobs are completed on time and on budget!
We would love to hear about your custom home build! Contact us to get the conversation started!
