Our Process

In-Home Consultation

After you contact Earthgroup for a free in-home estimate to discuss ideas for the project an appointment will be arranged, convenient for you to discuss the details of the project and the issues that need addressed. Your project manager will present to you previous projects Earthgroup has completed, walk you through the design/build process and answer all questions that you may have at this point. You may meet with your project manager multiple times during the early stages of the planning process as we begin to fine tune the scope of your project. We will prepare a detailed estimate of cost projections within your established budget, and financing options are presented at this time for your review and approval.

Design and Conceptualization

Once initial design concepts and layout has been finalized and meet your standards, they are submitted to our architectural staff that will prepare blueprints used by our contractors on location. Great care and attention to detail will ensure the project is being completed in compliance to code and retaining structural integrity through the completed product. At this time you will select the products and finishes that will be used in your project from the Earthgroup Showroom located in the northern Chicagoland area and provides a huge selection of materials and design elements.

Permits and Project Management

Earthgroup will obtain all necessary permits and once issued, construction will begin shortly after. Your project manager will oversee all activity through the project, meeting with you before construction begins and frequently throughout to answer questions you may have and provide an overview and progress updates. During the construction process, we understand you may feel that your normal day to day activity through your home will be interrupted.

Final Walkthrough

Earthgroup Construction will assure you that every measure will be taken to be as unintrusive and respectful of your home as possible. As the construction process nears completion, your project manager will take you on a final walk through to answer any questions or concerns that need resolved before finishing the project.
