Our Services

At Fomalhaut Contracting, we’re happy to offer a variety of services to help you put your best foot forward on your journey to creating the most ideal space for you and your family or business to flourish!

3D Preliminary Design:


The benefits of utilizing Computer Aided Design when beginning your project are unmatched. Working with a professional, well trained contractor on this aspect provides you with everything you’ll need to start the build in the most efficient manner possible.


3D schematics are the most effective way to visualize complex projects, adapt to complex site conditions, and coordinate more effectively. By doing so, you’re collaborating to prevent reworks and build it right the first time.

Space Planning:


Every outstanding space you’ve experienced was carefully and meticulously planned out by talented contractors and designers. Effective space planning on a commercial front means increased productivity and a more efficient means of accommodating employees and visitors alike.


Residential space planning is fundamental to effective interior design; if you want to elevate the look, feel, and atmosphere of your home, space planning is the most effective way to take your home’s aesthetic to the next level.

Drafting for Permits and Construction:


Permits are non-negotiable for commercial, residential, and light industrial builds and renovations. Collaborating with a skilled and experienced designer provides you with security, so you know that when you submit your plans to your local building departments, it’s done right the first time.


By avoiding countless reworks and submission fees, you can get your job started quickly and efficiently.


When you allocate these responsibilities to Fomalhaut Contracting, you can rest easy knowing a skilled and experienced designer will provide what you need to efficiently and affordably navigate the start of your build, expertly providing plans unique to your budget and design goals.

Our Process

What can you expect from working and collaborating with Fomalhaut Contracting? Whether you’re tackling a complex commercial project, or planning to renovate your basement next spring, we’re here to guide you through the beginning stages, promoting the best possible outcomes and effectively avoiding costly reworks or delays. 

 

Continue reading for a succinct outline for how our services work.

Consultation: When we begin our process, we analyze feasibility concerns. We’ll get an idea for what you desire for the space or build, allowing us to provide plans encompassing your personality and vision (all while fitting your budget!). We also address zoning, land use codes, sustainability considerations, and other pertinent information specific to your space. You can expect a fee quote during this stage, as well. 

Design: At this point, we’ll integrate CAD (computer aided design) to produce 3D schematic modeling of your space or new building project. The bulk of the design and collaboration rests in this phase! Any changes or reworks are welcomed and encouraged; we aren’t satisfied until you’re happy with the materials, colors, and functionality of the design.

Permit Submission: Once the design has been curated, we’ll work together to submit any Development Permit Drawings, properly scaled for your home, commercial building, or other construction project. Any necessary revisions will be made to satisfy building permit conditions, and ensure flexibility within the building process. You can expect a partial invoice at this point in the process. It’s important to note we are familiar and experienced with expedited building permits, or footing and foundation only building permits, should you need to take this route.

Working drawing development: This is where our orientation to detail is the most valuable; we’ll produce a working drawing that effectively guides your building team through the construction process. Our goal is to prevent any guessing on their part; all notes, tables, and specifications will clearly indicate, in great detail and technicality, everything they need to know in terms of what to build, install, demolish, or purchase. Again, any revisions or changes to the plan are more than welcome; let’s collaborate!

Completion: Finally, we’ve reached the final stage; you’re ready to begin your build. All permit drawings and working drawings are completed, and you have all the information you and your builders need to execute the design plan. You can expect the final invoice at this point, but we’ll be here in case you or your team has any questions or concerns.

If you have any questions about our strategy or methods, or would like a quote for your next project, do not hesitate to reach out. In our experience, it’s always best to arrange a consultation to discuss the feasibility and design possibilities for your project!

Why Fomalhaut Contracting?

When you choose a contractor to provide designs, drafts, drawings, or plans, you cannot afford to work with someone inexperienced or someone without your best interest in mind. Our team is passionate about architectural design; we’ve dedicated years to providing high-quality, engaging, and unique design services to our community. Our methods are tried and true; we continuously work hard to develop and execute strategies that ensure expectations, timelines, and goals are effectively met.

3D Schematics & CAD Conversion: we’re experienced in utilizing advanced technology to provide 3D schematics, allowing you to visualize your build or renovation before builders ever arrive. Think “optimization, flexibility, personalization, clarity in materials, colors and functionality.”

Timeliness: We understand that timelines must be met, and sometimes life happens; you need working drawings and development plans as soon as possible. Fortunately, our strategies and experience enable us to meet your timeline expectations, time and time again.

Orientation to Detail: When it comes to design, the details matter. Every project we have the pleasure of executing is awarded the same amount of time, consideration, and dedication it needs and deserves.

Collaboration: Our design philosophy is heavily rooted in collaboration; our desire and goal is to create a space you will love and enjoy, something that reflects your values and personality. 

Superior Communication: When you’re deeply invested in renovations or a new build, the last thing you need is for your contracted architectural designer to be M.I.A.. We prioritize open lines of online communication; we’ll be there when you need us.

It’s also worth mentioning that we aim to improve coordination on site through the detail in our drawings. Investing a little in this aspect of the build will save you money in construction costs due to reworks or delays down the line. Our passion for creating functional, and unique designs is apparent each time we collaborate with a homeowner or business owner on a development. We’re excited to work with you on your next renovation or build!
