Due to normal variations in the custom construction process including the ordering, manufacture and installation of your selections, the completion date may be forty-five days earlier or later than projected. Your final move in date will be determined approximately thirty days before the scheduled completion date.

While every effort will be made to accommodate you, there are the day-to-day uncertainties of conflicting schedules and subcontractor reliability. Unlike the routine steady pace of the manufacturing business, you will find the progress on your house to come in spurts, with periods of great activity and other times when it appears that nothing is happening. Often there are things happening which are not readily visible such as inspections, deliveries, or just a one or two day wait for someone to be available for a certain task. Historically our deliveries have been very close to schedule. As your home nears completion we will keep you informed as to the final delivery date..
