Step-by-Step Guidance to Your Dream Home

01

Schedule a Consultation

  • What It Is: Begin by booking a consultation with Sebastian Rein to discuss your vision, needs, and goals for your new custom home.
  • Why It’s Important: This step ensures that we align our understanding with your vision and what is important to you and sets a strong foundation for the project ahead.
  • How It Helps: You’ll have a clear roadmap of what to expect, including timelines and initial budget projections.

02

Design & Planning

  • What It Is: We create a team that consists of us (Reinhart Builders, your builder/General Contractor and in-house designer), an architect and engineers as needed, and trade professionals to work with you through the design process in order to align design desires with budget realities.
  • Why It’s Important: This step is where your home design starts to take shape and where we will become more specific on associated costs. Our goal is for every aspect, from aesthetics to functionality, to be reviewed in writing, budgeted, and accounted for on the plans.
  • How It Helps: With planning, we minimize changes during construction, keeping the project on time and within budget.

03

Construction & Completion

  • What It Is: Our team will manage every detail of the construction process. On-site, our Construction Manager runs the project daily to keep work progressing according to plan in coordination with the architect, designer, and engineer. He maintains subcontractor quality control while working in tandem with our off-site Project Manager who ensures subcontracts are properly executed, billing and invoicing is proceeding in an orderly fashion, materials are ordered and delivered in a timely manner, the project schedule (the Gantt Chart) is maintained and updated on an ongoing basis, and excellent communication is maintained among our team members and the client.
  • Why It’s Important: This is where the vision becomes reality, where the paper becomes sticks and bricks. You are going to see your home come to life. Our goal for our clients is that it is an exciting experience – one you’ll remember fondly.
  • How It Helps: You’ll have peace of mind knowing that your project is being handled by skilled professionals with a reputation for excellence.

Get answers to your Frequently asked questions

To begin, schedule a consultation with our founder, Sebastian Rein, to discuss your project.  

We will be asking questions and listening to yours. It is not really a sales pitch. What are your needs and goals? What is important to you? What is the purpose of this project? What are your budget constraints? Timeline? From there, we will guide you through our design/build process and share with you what you can expect by working with us.

You’ll be highly involved. We and the team we build will collaborate with you to create a personalized plan, ensuring every detail aligns with your vision. We value your input and make sure you’re part of the creative journey.

Construction timelines vary based on the scope of the project. However, during the design phase of the process we will create a Gantt Chart that is a construction timeline broken down by task. This will be revised on an ongoing basis throughout the project. We provide clear timelines, regular updates, and transparent communication to ensure all parties maintain accountability, the project continues to progress, and the client is fully informed.

We are extremely straightforward, we communicate with everyone, and we pay attention to details. We’re not salesy. We have an in-house team with over 100 years of construction and design experience and relationships with trades, architects and engineers that go back decades. We play well with others.

Do the work up-front and don’t make changes during construction. By doing more planning than you’d expect before construction you will avoid painful and expensive consequences later.
