For many, it’s a dream that builds for years. From memories of grandpa’s log cabin to simply wanting a place to get away from it all. More than a home, this dream is a direct reflection of who you are. As the leading designer of authentic mountain style homes, we’ve helped more than two thousand families worldwide bring their log and timber frame home inspirations to life. Now, it’s your turn.
Talk with your PrecisionCraft client representative to learn how our custom home design process unfolds, from establishing your project budget to your vision for the home. When you are ready to begin, sign a DDA and your representative will schedule a site visit to your property. We will walk your site, take photos, discuss home positioning, and prepare for your upcoming conceptual design meeting.
During your initial conceptual design meeting, you will meet with your M-T-N designer, either in person or via an interactive online meeting. Your team will discuss your specific project parameters, including your turnkey cost to build. M-T-N designs your home to the budget you specify.
Following your conceptual design meeting, your M-T-N designer will create your schematic architectural design set, which includes floor plan layout, log and timber material structure, SIP enclosure, and a 3D color rendering. We will discuss your estimated turnkey cost to build. Your designer will present a 3D SketchUp model of your home during the meeting so you can see what the interior and exterior will look like. After the Initial Design Meeting, your designer will send you a 24” x 36” set of plans.
Experience your virtual tour in one of our offices or watch a pre-recorded 3D tour, lead by your designer.
You will continue to communicate with your M-T-N designer to modify the plans to fit your needs and budget.
Once you approve the design, the next step is to sign a contract for the materials and construction services. When this contract is executed, we will start working on the final construction documents.
After you sign the contract, we generate the engineered construction documents. M-T-N Design produces the most complete timber frame construction documents in the industry. Once the drawings are complete, we send them to a 3rd party engineer for review.
Construction plans include:
