Finalizing Plans, Securing Permits, and Preparing for Construction

Tier 3 is the final step before construction begins.
This is where your project becomes fully engineered, fully documented, and fully approved by the building department.
We handle every detail — drawings, engineering, permitting, and coordination — so your project is ready to build without delays or surprises.

Purpose of Tier 3

Tier 3 ensures your project is:

• engineered correctly

• documented thoroughly

• permit‑ready

• approved by the city or county

• scheduled and prepared for construction

This phase eliminates uncertainty and sets your project up for a smooth build.

What You Receive in Tier 3

• Final construction drawings

• Structural engineering (as required)

• Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing coordination

• Permit application preparation

• Permit submission and tracking

• Responses to plan reviewers

• Final construction budget

• Pre‑construction scheduling and planning

• A ready‑to‑sign construction contract

Everything needed to legally and efficiently begin construction.

🛠️ What Happens During Tier 3

1. Final Drawings & Engineering

We finalize architectural drawings and coordinate with structural, mechanical, and other required engineers.

2. Permit Application Preparation

We assemble all documents required by the building department.

3. Permit Submission

We submit your permit package and manage all communication with the city or county.

4. Plan Review Responses

We address reviewer comments, revise drawings if needed, and keep the process moving.

5. Final Budget & Contract

Once permits are approved, we finalize your construction budget and prepare your contract.

6. Pre‑Construction Planning

We schedule trades, order long‑lead materials, and prepare your project for a smooth start.

Billing for Tier 3

Tier 3 is billed in three equal installments:

• 1/3 at signing

• 1/3 at permit submission

• 1/3 at permit approval

This aligns payments with clear, measurable milestones.

 Typical Timeline

Most Tier 3 phases are completed within:

• 3–6 weeks for interior renovations

• 6–12+ weeks for additions or complex structural projects

Timelines vary based on engineering requirements and building department review times.

What Comes After Tier 3

Once your permit is approved, you’re ready for:
