Our Process

How We Work

Ensuring everyone’s in lock step

No one likes surprises. We certainly don’t, which is why we believe in keeping the lines of two-way communication open throughout your renovation project. With a structured approach from start to finish, we make sure everyone involved in the completion of your build is on the same page at every stage of work, setting and meeting clear expectations on both sides.

The Building Process

Pre-Construction

Shack Built orders all selected materials, prepares schedules, obtains necessary permits and conducts detailed on-site meetings with you, project manager and subcontractors.

CoConstruct App

Shack Built uses CoConstruct software to facilitate the construction process and serve as a communication hub with you and other partners on your project. It’s a tool that provides accountability throughout the process and helps us provide you with a positive, transparent experience. Learn more here.

During Construction

Your project manager remains in close contact, including almost daily visits to the job site while work is underway. We closely monitor all subcontractor work and ensure schedules and safety are maintained.

Project Completion

We’ll conduct a final walk-through of the entire build with you, resolve any punch list items, secure final payment and commence our One-Year Work Warranty.
