Step 1: Initial Consultation and Site Review
The journey begins with a detailed initial consultation where we listen to your needs, assess your space, and discuss your lifestyle goals.
Following this, we conduct a comprehensive site visit and project evaluation to understand the existing structural conditions and identify any potential challenges early on. As a trusted general contractor, we ensure we fully understand the vision before proposing a scope.
Step 2: Scope Development and Proposal
Based on our findings, we move into the scope development phase. We provide you with a meticulously detailed proposal and budget, breaking down the costs associated with labor, materials, and necessary permits.
Our transparent approach ensures clarity regarding project expectations, material allowances, and payment schedules. Changes, hidden conditions, owner-requested additions, and approved change orders may affect the final cost, but they are always documented clearly.
Step 3: Design, Materials and Selections
Once the contract is finalized, we assist you with the phase of material selections. We guide you in choosing components that align with your aesthetic preferences and long-term durability requirements for your kitchen remodeling or bathroom remodeling project.
Step 4: Permits and Building Requirements
Navigating municipal regulations can be complex. Aluna Construction coordinates applicable permits, documentation, inspections, and building requirements based on the project scope.
We handle city zoning laws and ensure structural safety. For condo renovation projects, we coordinate with HOA management to adhere to strict building rules and noise restrictions.

Step 5: Scheduling and Pre-Construction
With plans approved, construction planning and scheduling commence. We coordinate material lead times, building access, and the sequencing of trades before demolition even begins.
Proper work-area preparation and protection of the property are critical steps to ensure a clean, organized, and secure job site from day one. Client communication is established early so you know exactly when work begins.
Step 6: Construction and Trade Coordination
We coordinate all specialized trades seamlessly, ensuring that framing, plumbing, electrical work, and finishes are executed according to the project timeline.
- Site Supervision
Active management of the job site to maintain safety and organization.
- Trade Sequencing
Coordinating demolition, framing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC seamlessly.
- Material Coordination
Ensuring tile, flooring, cabinetry, and finish work arrive and are installed on schedule.
- Schedule Management
Adapting to inspections and maintaining the workflow.
Step 7: Inspections and Quality Control
Throughout the build, we coordinate required municipal building inspections. Additionally, we enforce our own rigorous internal quality control measures.
We continuously review craftsmanship and address necessary corrections before moving forward to the next phase. Our goal is to ensure system testing and finish reviews meet our high standards at every stage.
Step 8: Final Walkthrough and Project Completion
As the project nears completion, we conduct a meticulous final walkthrough with you. We review the completed work, identify any remaining items, and address agreed outstanding details before final completion.
Communication Throughout Your Renovation
We believe that communication throughout the project is vital. You are never left in the dark; we provide regular updates on progress and upcoming milestones. Communication methods and frequency depend on the project scope and client preference.

Clear deadlines for material selections and approvals.
