The Process

At David Pelligra & Architects, Inc., we believe in the importance of a thorough and well-planned process. Here is an overview of the steps we follow for each project:

• Step 1: Field Review and As-Built Drawings: We conduct an on-site inspection to document the condition of the existing structure and create a set of "as-built" CAD drawings. This step is crucial for creating an accurate pre-construction snapshot of the building.

• Step 2: Preliminary Drawings: Using the "as-built" drawings, we generate preliminary drawings that show proposed changes and alterations to the existing structure. We work closely with our clients to make adjustments to these drawings based on their input and suggestions.

• Step 3: Construction Documents: Once the preliminary drawings are finalized and approved, we generate construction documents. These documents include highly detailed CAD blueprints and specifications sheets that outline all of the measurements, specifications, and materials needed to begin the project.

• Step 4: Administration: We handle all project essentials, including municipal meetings, document processing, permitting, project coordination, and contractor review. Our goal is to ensure that all aspects of the project are managed efficiently and effectively.

• Step 5: Interior Design: As an optional service, we can personalize your project with paint, furniture, flooring, and lighting. Our resident interior design expert will work with you to add the finishing touches to your space.

• Step 6: Construction Administration: As an option, we can act as your official representative, coordinating on-site activity and implementing your wishes. This service can provide an added layer of support and oversight throughout the construction process.
