Embassy Construction’s Proven Process takes you from first meeting to final walk-through in eight clear steps. We focus on site analysis, realistic allowances, coordinated design-build, permits, a detailed build schedule, and a thorough punch list to support cost clarity, on-time delivery, and a smoother experience in Kane and McHenry Counties.
How Our Proven Process Works
Our process is built to answer three questions up front:
- Can we build it here? (site and structure)
- What will it really cost? (scope and allowances)
- How will it run? (schedule, selections, and job flow)
We use the same framework across custom homes, commercial projects, and major remodeling/additions, so you always know what’s next.
What You Get with Embassy’s Process
Our Proven Process is designed to keep you informed and the job moving:
- Design-Build Leadership – One accountable team from concept to keys.
- Organized Selections – Timelines, showrooms, and support that protect your schedule.
- Field Discipline – Clean, organized job sites and coordinated trades.
- Craftsmanship + Integrity – Materials and methods chosen for longevity, not shortcuts.
The Eight Steps
Pricing Options at a Glance
We use two main pricing structures and recommend the best fit for your project:
- Fixed Price: Predictable total cost with defined allowances; change orders occur when you choose to upgrade or alter scope.
- Cost-Plus: Actual documented costs plus a transparent builder fee; ideal for complex, evolving, or design-forward builds.
The choice depends on plan detail, complexity, market conditions, and how you prefer to make decisions.
People Also Ask – Our Proven Process
We define goals, timing, budget range, and decision pace, then outline next steps. You leave knowing what information we need from you and what we’ll do next.
Site analysis verifies setbacks, soils, drainage, and utilities before design and budgeting go too far. It prevents surprises that can otherwise derail costs and timelines.
Allowances are matched to the finish level you’re actually likely to choose, not a generic $/sq-ft guess. That way, each selection becomes a clear decision within a known range instead of an unexpected overage.
When design, constructibility, and costs are coordinated, drawings stay in sync with the budget and the field. That means fewer revisions, fewer delays, and fewer surprises once construction starts.
We use pre-cover checks, milestone walk-throughs, and a documented punch list before you move in. This ensures key details are addressed while they’re accessible—not after everything is closed up.
