DPG BUILD PROCESS
Pre-Construction Planning
Before work begins, we contact the Utility Service Agency to confirm the location of all utilities on the property. A detailed walk-through follows, bringing together the Designer, Project Manager, and Foreman to align on the project scope and expectations.
Job Start
We prepare the site by staging equipment and materials in accordance with local ordinances. A porta-potty is delivered to ensure compliance, and all logistics are organized for smooth operations.
Installation
Demolition, grading, and removal of unnecessary items kick off the installation phase. The project is executed under the supervision of both the Foreman and Project Manager, with the Designer serving as the primary point of contact and liaison with the operations team.
Completion of Project
Once the project is finished, we conduct a final walk-through with you to ensure all expectations outlined in the contract have been met. At completion, we provide you with all relevant paperwork, including operation manuals and warranties, ensuring a smooth handover and lasting satisfaction.
