Our Custom Build Process

There are three situations where Marcraft Homes can be involved with your home building needs:

A) You own your building site and you are looking to find a reliable, quality builder to manage the construction of your home.

B) You have visited one of our current site locations and we have an inventory product available to suit all your living requirements.

C) You have chosen a home site within our land inventory and you desire to custom design your unique home.

Should you choose Marcraft Homes to custom design your own home, there is a specific process to follow. Our typical process when working with a client to build their custom home is as follows:

Step 1 - Getting to know you

Meet with a Marcraft Homes sales representative.
Complete a Marcraft Homes information card.
Take a drive-by tour of homes previously built.
Visit our website & explore past builds for inspiration.

Step 2 - The Vision

Meet onsite with the Marcraft Building Team.
Discuss lifestyle, home amenities, family requirements, future goals and dreams.
Discuss general parameters with regard to price range, home style, square footage requirements, location of potential home site.
Together we analyze the site and discuss building envelope features.
Discuss how the topographical elevations will best suit your future home design.

Step 3 - Client Commitment

Involve the design team to discuss home design features, exterior and interior specifications.
Review the right architectural look and the utilization of interior space.
Marcraft Homes addresses preliminary pricing and the building contract takes shape.

Step 4 - Building Contract

Finalization of allowances.
Completion of "as built" architectural working drawings.
Completion of engineered drawings.
Conclusion of contractual obligations.
Construction start date established.
Anticipated completion date.

Step 5 - Construction Process

There are key junctures throughout the building process when the homeowner’s presence on the building site is desirable. The homeowner is informed in writing of these dates, which usually coincide with financial construction draws. The stages are:

Foundations
Framing
Lock-up
Pre-finish

At the pre-finish juncture, a review of specifications occurs, ensuring that the placement of rough-in meets customer expectations. Finishing materials and details are also reviewed at this time.

Prior to possession, the homeowner will meet with the Marcraft Homes team in a walk-through to address any concerns or deficiencies prior to final closing and occupancy. All functional and mechanical systems within the house are checked, and all warranty documentation is reviewed, packaged and presented to the new homeowner. Marcraft Homes intends to address all deficiencies prior to possession, whenever possible, so that the homeowner moves into a new home that is fully completed, in perfect working order, and worry free.

Marcraft Homes prides itself for the follow-up service given to all its homeowners. Should there be a concern or a deficiency overlooked at any of these meetings, Marcraft Homes is just a phone call away.

Step 6 - Stages of Development

From the moment the footings go in to when the last shrub of landscape is planted, Marcraft Homes will take comprehensive pictures of the exterior and interior of your home. On a month to month basis, Multivistamedia.com, on behalf of Marcraft Homes, will document every step of your home’s development and forward it to you. No matter where you are, your family and friends can watch your home evolve.

Your virtual home tours are generally taken at these stages of development:
