How We Work: Collaborating to Craft Your Dream Home
Building a home is a journey, and at Manuka Homes, we believe in walking it with you every step of the way. Here's our collaborative process to turn your vision into reality:
Step 1: Defining Your Dream
Location, Size, Budget, & Must-Haves:
We guide you through clarifying your vision and finding the perfect land, considering key aspects like budget and essential features.
Investing in Your Time & Passion:
We understand a new home is a significant investment of time and passion, and we partner with you to ensure it reflects your unique identity.
Initial Exploration:
We develop a concept design showcasing what’s possible within your site and budget, giving you a tangible feel for your future home.
Visualization & Refinement:
This includes floor plans, 3D elevations, and initial research on permits and feasibility. You are fully involved, making changes and ensuring everyone is “on the same page.”
Step 2: Bringing Your Vision to Life with Concept Design
Step 3: Transforming Concept into a Developed Design
Turning Dreams into Details:
Once you’ve approved the concept, we refine it into a detailed design, including materials, finishes, and building structure.
Collaborative Decisions:
We guide you through crucial choices like room sizes, materials, and building philosophy, ensuring a home that’s both functional and beautiful.
Visualizing Your Future:
3D images and a revised build estimate let you fully picture your dream home taking shape.
Clarity & Transparency:
We utilize the Master Builders Residential Building Contract, clearly outlining expectations and terms, ensuring your peace of mind.
Understanding the Law & Process:
We work closely with you to ensure you are comfortable with the legal framework and project timeline defined by the contract.
Step 4: Building Confidence with the Building Contract
Step 5: Finalizing the Blueprint and Sealing the Deal
From Dreams to Working Drawings:
The final step before construction, complete working drawings are prepared for contractors, suppliers, and council approvals.
Upfront & Transparent Pricing:
We utilize an independent cost engineer, ensuring accuracy and transparency in the final build price before finalizing the contract.
Seamless Project Management:
We keep you informed and involved throughout the construction process, minimizing errors and exceeding expectations.
Flexibility & Control:
We have a clear process for discussing and implementing any changes you might decide on during construction.
