• Cost Control / Building Options

  • Cost Control

    From the initial phase, Generation-3 focus on your needs vs budget. We treat the budget as a critical control document crucial to the design. Budgeting is a two-step process. The initial budget is prepared as a Rough Project Budget Estimate to help with the size and style of your home.

    The second or Working Budget details the scope of work involved and helps to avoid over-runs. It becomes your control document itemizing all the facets of your build. It allows you to track the budget versus actual expenditures and will be referenced throughout the design and build process. This control document will also assist you for any qualified GST rebates. Financial institutions respect and accept this document when considering financing the project.
