Process

Let's Talk About Home

Every Newrock home begins with a conversation. We'll talk about your property, the home you envision, your priorities and your overall budget. You'll also begin the construction financing process with your lender, if needed.

Start with one of our customizable home plans, bring us a plan for inspiration, or begin with an entirely custom design. From there, your Construction Consultant can begin developing preliminary pricing to help establish the feasibility and direction of your project.

This is where ideas begin becoming a plan.

Understanding Your Land

Your land is an important part of your custom home—and no two properties are exactly alike.

Your Construction Consultant will meet you at your property to evaluate home placement, access, excavation, grading, utilities, well and septic or public connections, and other site-development considerations that may affect the project.

Don't own land yet? We can also walk a potential property with you so you have a better understanding of what may be involved in developing it before moving forward.

Great homes start with understanding the ground beneath them.

Designed Around You

Now we turn your ideas into a home.

You'll work directly with our in-house Residential Designer to develop your custom home plans, whether you're modifying an existing Newrock plan or creating something entirely from scratch. We'll refine the layout, architectural details and functionality around your lifestyle, property and priorities.

The most luxurious homes are deeply personal. We give you the freedom to shape the spaces, details and character of your home around the life you want to live.

Designed for your land. Designed for your life.

Bringing the Details Together

As your home takes shape, you'll work with your Construction Consultant to make selections and establish the finishes, features and upgrades that will define your home.

Cabinetry, countertops, flooring and other key decisions are coordinated while project pricing is refined. At the same time, we continue developing the scope of site work and other project-specific costs so you can understand the bigger picture—not just the price of the house itself.

Once the design, selections and project scope are established, we finalize your construction proposal.

Clarity now creates confidence later.

Making It Official

With the plans, selections and pricing established, it's time to move forward.

You'll sign your construction agreement and provide the required construction deposit, which is applied toward the total cost of your build. Newrock will also prepare the documentation your lender needs as you work toward final construction financing.

From here, our team begins coordinating the technical work necessary to move your home toward construction.

Your vision now has a path forward.

We Handle the Paperwork

This is where the behind-the-scenes work becomes especially important.

Newrock prepares your residential construction documents, coordinates required structural engineering and assembles the information needed for your building permit. We then submit and coordinate the permitting process with the appropriate local jurisdiction.

Depending on your property, this may also involve site plans, septic documentation, water availability, utility applications and other project-specific approvals.

While permits are under review, you'll continue working with your lender toward final loan approval and funding.

You hired a builder so you wouldn't have to navigate this alone.

Once permits are approved and financing is in place, it's time to prepare for construction.

You'll meet with your Project Manager for a pre-construction meeting to review your plans, selections and project details. We'll also coordinate the onsite house stakeout so the location and orientation of your new home can be established on the property.

Then our team begins coordinating the site work and construction schedule that will bring everything to life.

This is where the drawings become real.

Watching Your Home Take Shape

From excavation and foundation to framing, finishes and final details, your Project Manager coordinates the people, materials and schedule behind your build.

Throughout custom home construction, our team manages the many moving pieces of your project while keeping you informed as your home progresses through each stage.

Because Newrock is involved from the early site and design conversations forward, construction isn't the beginning of our involvement—it's the continuation of a project we already know.

One team. One home. All the way through.

The Best Part

As construction comes to completion, our team works through the final details and prepares your home for move-in.

We'll walk the completed home with you, review its features and systems, address remaining items, and help make the transition from construction project to your home.

Then comes the moment everything before it was leading toward:

Welcome home.
