Our Process
The Brio Design Homes team is dedicated to creating a home building experience that our clients actually enjoy – we promise it’s possible! We invite you to review the step-by-step summary of our process below. You might notice construction is late in the process – and it’s true! Our team puts a lot of energy into the preconstruction, or construction planning, process to ensure everything goes smoothly once work begins. That’s a big part of what sets us apart from other contractors – in addition to our talented, experienced in-house carpentry.

Introductions

Managing Your Budget
Throughout the design process, we review your budget to ensure we’re on track. We provide options that empower you to make informed decisions about how your budget is allocated. We also work with our partners to establish expectations for construction.
