Our Process

Working with Alder begins with a conversation.

  • Connect

    Complete the inquiry form on our website, and we'll reach out to schedule an introductory call. This is our opportunity to learn about your home, your goals, your vision, and determine whether we're the right fit for your project.

  • Site Visit

    We'll meet with you at your home to walk through the space, review existing conditions, discuss your ideas, and gain a thorough understanding of the project scope.

  • Project Proposal

    Following the site visit, we prepare a detailed proposal outlining the anticipated scope of work, preliminary pricing, project assumptions, and expectations. We then meet with you to review the proposal together, answer questions, and discuss the next steps.

  • Pre-Construction (Optional)

    For projects that benefit from additional planning, we offer a Pre-Construction Agreement.

    During this phase, we work closely with you, your architect, and your designer to refine the project scope, align the budget, coordinate selections, identify value-engineering opportunities where appropriate, and resolve construction details before work begins.

    Investing time in pre-construction creates clarity, improves budgeting accuracy, and significantly reduces unforeseen conditions and change orders during construction.

  • Build

    Once construction begins, our team manages every aspect of the project—from scheduling and subcontractor coordination to quality control and daily site management. We maintain a clean, organized job site and are committed to exceptional craftsmanship, transparent communication, and keeping you informed throughout the entire construction process.

  • Completion

    We conduct final walkthroughs, complete punch list items, and address finishing details to deliver a fully completed project to a high standard. Our work is backed by a comprehensive warranty, with full details outlined in the project contract.

  • Post Construction Services

    Alder remains your long-term partner for ongoing support. We are always available for service work or future construction needs. Our post-construction concierge service is here whenever you need us.
