Our Process
A considered, seamless journey from concept to completion
At Davey Constructions, our process is designed to create certainty, clarity and a highly refined outcome ensuring every detail is resolved before construction begins.
1. Preliminary Consultation & Budget Alignment
We begin with an in depth consultation to understand your vision, lifestyle and expectations.
During this stage, we:
- Review your plans and design direction
- Discuss inclusions, finishes and overall scope
- Establish an agreed project budget
This ensures alignment from the outset, allowing the project to move forward with clarity and confidence.
2. Design Development & Selections
Once engaged, we guide you through a comprehensive interior design and selections process with Sarah, our in-house interior designer.
This includes:
- Moodboard Presentation
- Materials and flatlays
- Detailed joinery design
- Finishes Schedule (used as part of the build documentation for site)
All selections are thoughtfully curated and aligned with your agreed budget.
💡 The benefit:
By resolving all design decisions upfront, we eliminate uncertainty, avoid variations, and ensure a smooth and stress-free construction phase.
3. Detailed Estimating & Approval
With all selections finalised, we prepare a detailed and transparent build estimate.
This stage provides:
- A fully considered project scope
- Accurate pricing aligned to your selections
- Confidence that everything has been accounted for
Once approved, we move forward to formal agreement.
4. Contract & Scheduling
A Master Builders contract is prepared, outlining:
- Scope of works
- Project timeline
- Progress schedule
Your build is then scheduled, ready to commence.
5. Construction
With all planning and design decisions completed, construction begins.
This stage is intentionally structured to be:
- Seamless
- organised
- low-stress for our clients
With all selections already locked in, you can enjoy watching your home come to life without the need for ongoing decisions or unexpected changes.
Typical construction timeframe: 12–15 months (depending on scale and complexity)
As construction nears completion, we dedicate a focused period to refining every detail.
7. Handover & Ongoing Support
Handover marks the completion of your home and the beginning of the next chapter.
On handover, we:
- present your completed home
- provide all documentation, warranties and guidance
- ensure you are comfortable with all systems and features
Our relationship doesn’t end here, we remain available to support you beyond completion, ensuring your home continues to perform exactly as intended.
