Let Fernway Builders build a custom home for you!

---

While its very rewarding to see a new home come to life, building one requires an elaborate coordination and collaboration between a team of engineers, architects, designers, sub-contractors, inspectors, vendors, suppliers and many more.

In a Design + Build project, the Builder takes the central role in managing the entire life cycle. The Buyer has a single point of contact - the builder - with whom they can share their dream home aspirations, expectations and budget. In return, the builder uses their skilled knowledge of design, materials and building science to eventually deliver on a home that meets or exceeds the buyer's expectations.

Here is a short list of all the tasks that the Builder is responsible for:
