At the start of our relationship we will be discussing what you would like your dream home or commercial project to be. For example: Where and how much you would be comfortable spending, how soon you would like to get started, and when would you like to move. We want to get to know you and for you to get to know us.
Design:
When meeting with Mike Amos and Sons you will discuss the Home Design or Commercial Design. This process is easier than you may expect. The goal is to make this process fun, so that you enjoy the designing experience.
We will work with your plans and designer, or schedule an appointment with one of our experienced Home Designers and Architects. These professionals will listen to your needs and desires and will design a home based on your lifestyle, personal tastes, and budgetary requirements. One of these designers will develop a set of preliminary drawings, and from those drawings (set of plans) MLA General Contractor and Sons will estimate the price of your home.
If the estimated price falls within your range, we will then work on final drawings. If the estimated price is out of your range, we will mutually agree on modifications that will hopefully bring it back into your range. We will work on making your dream a reality. It’s that easy.
Site Selection and Orientation:
The building site you have chosen is essential when designing your custom home. You will need to take advantage of any views, trees, driveway orientation, slope and drainage that will affect the way your custom sits on the building site. Being able to for see the end result is one of MLA General Contractor’s strengths.

You are given allowances for items in your home such as flooring, stone, fixtures, appliances, landscaping, etc. These allowances able you to select and get pricing on your selections.
