The Langford Properties Steps In Building

---

 Selecting the right lot to accommodate your needs is the first step. Things to consider include: 

• The Lot size and the building area for your home
• Orientation of the property
• The views
• Any building guidelines that will effect the house design

Once you’ve chosen your Lot, it’s time to decide who’s going to build your home. Langford Properties is a full service builder that will help with design ideas, budgeting and project management to deliver the best possible home.

It’s time to schedule your design meeting.This is where the fun begins, since the home in your head (or in the  design file you’ve been building) will soon be the home on your land. In  developing the design, you’ll want to think about: 

• The size of the home
• The number of bedrooms and bathrooms
• One story or two?
• Any other necessities, like a wine cellar or gourmet kitchen
• The general look and style of the architecture
• Material must-haves
• How the home will sit on the land
• Your budget

Check check and recheck your final set of drawings to make sure nothing has been missed. Now it is time to submit to the city for the building permit. 

The bulk of decisions about what is going in your home should have been made during the design step, but now you get to make final finish and fixture choices for everything from countertops to flooring to kitchen and bath hardware. For many people, this is the best part of the whole process.  If you’re not one of them,Langford Properties is able to help guide your choices. Langford Properties works with a select group of award winning suppliers and trades that will make your home truly spectacular. 

It’s  the day you’ve been waiting for! From the time the first scoop of dirt is scooped out of the ground, it will be a whirlwind of activity. You  can expect several milestones:

• Site preparation—excavation of the land and lot staking to mark where your home will sit
• Foundation and framing—The home is starting to take shape.
• The “meat” of the house—installation of the mechanical (your  heating and cooling, plumbing, and electric), insulation and drywall
• Flooring and paint—Finishing touches like cabinets and trim are also going in.
• Fixtures and appliances—It’s time for lighting, bathroom and kitchen fixtures, and appliances.

The end is in site but there is still a lot of small details that need to finished up. On the outside landscaping, driveways and sidewalks. On the inside a final walk through with the owners and builder to address any outstanding items. The New Home Warranty is activated at this time. 

It’s finally time to move in. The only thing left to do is enjoy your custom home!
