Our Process


The Pre-Construction Selection Support System™
You’ll make many decisions about your project…more than you would think.  Sometimes, these decisions can be overwhelming, come at an inconvenient time, or simply be something you are not confident in doing on your own.  At Pfahl, we make your life much easier with The Pre-Construction Selection Support System™.  Through The Pre-Construction Selection Support System™, our Construction Concierge will guide you through the majority of the key selection decisions you will need to make during project construction.

The Clear Detail Budget Conversation™
We want you to know what your project is going to cost and, perhaps more importantly, how we determine it.  A budget process that avoids mystification is a budget process that works for you – and for us.

Once we develop the comprehensive budget, we sit down and take you through all the key budget details.  We believe that the more you understand the budget, the better prepared you will be to make wise decisions along the way.  This process is thorough and, as a result, provides you with a comprehensive package that you can take to your lender.

The 10,000 Foot View Pre-construction Overview™
Our pre-construction meeting is designed to give you the big picture of the overall construction process.  In it, we will review the work flow of the overall process – sharing and discussing each phase of the sequential process, the schedule, and the overall logistics of your project.  Our clients tell us that they appreciate the ability to gain some visibility into the process, learn about how they can help make the process go more smoothly, and keep the project on budget.

The Manage the Details Construction Process™
The key variables in every construction project are scheduling, coordination, anticipation, quality management, and cost control.  Our team does a great job in all of these areas – across all 18 of the key phases of construction.  For each project phase we have a distinct protocol and process for managing the unique aspect of that project phase.

We invite you to arrange an initial meeting with us (we call it The Informed Dreamer Conversation™) to learn more about our process, our work, and how we can turn your dream into reality (set up a meeting).
