Building Blocks
The Ashlar Process
At Ashlar Homes, we make building your home a straightforward and enjoyable experience. We focus on clear communication and keeping you informed throughout every step, ensuring that you understand the process and feel confident in the craftsmanship and design of your new home.
Our goal is to deliver a quality home that you'll be happy with for years to come, all while sticking to a schedule that gets you settled in as quickly as possible. At Ashlar Homes, you can expect both value and efficiency in your home-building journey.
Step 1 - Contract
Contract! The exciting (and maybe slightly scary) part of the process! We enter into an agreement to build a home together! The contract confirms the agreed selling price of the product, neighborhood/lot, and specific plan along with the structural options for your home. Once your contract is processed you can breathe a sigh of relief as the fun begins! You will receive an invitation to join Builder Trend. This is our project management tool which will help you stay informed throughout the whole process.
Step 2 - Permitting & Selections
Now the fun stuff! During this stage in the process, you will select your pallet or if you have chosen one of our CLASSIC series homes, you will make your Selections Appointment at our partnering Design Studio. Here is when you really begin to see your vision for your new home take shape! Overwhelmed by having to choose all those design elements? Don’t worry because your Designer will walk you through it all and make sure your home has a cohesive design.
Step 3 - Planning Meeting
Once you have completed your selections for your new home, whether it is selecting from a pallet or the appointment of a full selection, the next step in the process is to have your planning meeting. This meeting will occur with members of your Community Team and during the meeting, you will be confirming the ins and outs of your build. Our goal for this meeting is to answer any questions thus far and to set expectations for what is to come.
Step 4 - Foundation, Framing, and Mechanicals
We believe every home we build is the future place for family and friend gatherings and one of our favorite steps in the process is this one. To see something go from nothing to a future place for your memories is exciting to us! During this time, it may feel like time is standing still! But it is far from that!
There is a lot going on in this phase-some we can actively see and some we cannot. Further this stage is VERY weather dependent and requires patience as we cannot control weather delays.
Step 5 - Sheet Rock, Trim, Cabinets, and Flooring
It’s the final countdown! Okay, well not quite yet, but we are getting closer and closer! During this time, cabinets are installed and once they are complete and your countertops are set, we can start to schedule the home orientation, final walkthrough, and set the closing date! Remember, sometimes delays beyond our control occur and if this happens, we will adjust your closing accordingly.
Step 6 - New Home Orientation & Pre-closing Walk
Well, here we are! It’s almost time for you to pack up your things and move into your new home. Your walkthrough takes place one week before closing!
However, you will be asked to get it scheduled one month before and it’s important that you make this appointment! During this time we are also reviewing our own checklist to make sure your house is ready for move-in day!
Step 7 - Final Walk Through
Your community team will walk you through your new home to make sure the punch list from your walk-through was completed and to your expectations. Our commitment to you is to provide you with a quality home that you will enjoy for years to come. We are also committed to keeping to a schedule to get you in your home on time and as quickly as the build process will allow.
Step 8 - Closing & Key Delivery
Upon completion of the final walk, you will meet the Title company where you will sign the final paperwork to make this house officially your new home.
Congratulations and Welcome Home!
