I ran into a realtor friend last week who mentioned that he knew multiple people who were waiting 18 months or more to get started on a custom home. This wasn’t the first time I had heard this, but what struck me this time is that most of these people weren’t aware that there was no need to wait that long.

At Alair Homes Chilliwack, our industry leading project management approach means we have much higher capacity than many other builders, getting you into your new home sooner. Alair focusses on building relationships with top quality trades and suppliers, allowing us to manage multiple projects at once. These projects are managed by highly trained project managers, within our proprietary project management system.

So the good news is there is no need to wait 18 months to start. In fact, in most cases we can start the Design and Estimation process within a week or two of signing a contract, making the most of the time you will be waiting for building permits.

The purpose of this process is to help you navigate the hundreds of choices you need to make, within our easy to use Client Control model. It gives you a fully costed design, based on choices you’ve actually made, not a builder’s unrealistic allowances. This is the only way we can guarantee that you will get the house of your dreams, at a price you can live with, on time.

The planning process allows us to prepare our team of sub-trades and give them all the details they need to accurately bid and plan their work, meaning we can get started on your home as soon as building permits are issued, not 18 months away.

So, let’s get started on your dream home or renovation and make the most of your valuable time, while getting you into your new home much faster.
