Construction Management Services We take care of everything and keep you up to date on every phase of your project. Design Phase We know the territory, so many clients prefer that we recommend Architects familiar with the design challenges of custom homes in this kind of terrain. As a member of the design team, we oversee everything from concept to building-permit-ready drawings including structural, mechanical, septic, and electrical design. Then we assist you in the creation of any municipal planning or development agreements. You can also choose to work with your favourite Architect. Bring us your own drawings and designs. It’s always up to you. We’ll make your team feel right at home. Construction Phase You receive a proposal outlining the completion cost of the project. The proposal is re-priced and re-presented as often as needed to ensure that we have captured everything you want at the right price. Upon acceptance of the proposal, a contract is prepared and signed. Then, a building permit is issued by the Township, and we’re ready to get to work. Estimate Report The Estimate Report is a transparent and easy-to-view document that follows the 16 division Standardized Construction Breakdown. It provides a very accurate report of costs by line item. It also allows all parties, including project managers, estimators, finance and owners to analyze and understand the estimated costs of the project and all allowances. Throughout the life of a project, the Estimate Report continually tracks costs-to-date and any deviation from the Estimated Cost. Proposal The Cost-Plus Proposal is presented for your review and discussion. Upon acceptance of the proposal and the terms and conditions of the work to be performed, we draft and enter into a contract together. A deposit is taken, and work begins.
Contract There are many types of construction contracts and we are open to the idea of entering into many types of standardized contracts including Canadian Construction Documents Committee (CCDC) Contracts such as Stipulated Fixed Price and Cost Plus Contracts.
Types of Contracts Fixed Price Contract
A Fixed Price Contract is used only when the scope is very simplified or extreme detail is included in the drawings that can be accurately estimated, and there is limited desire to vary from the design drawings. For example, a boathouse may have a relatively simple contract compared to a large house. Cost-Plus Contract Cost-Plus Contracts stipulate the percentage mark up allowed on materials and sub contract costs. This type of contract is very typical in Muskoka where interior design decisions are typically not made in advance of the estimate phase of the project. Assumptions, made with your direction, are included in the estimate. This type of contract is most equitable to both the builder and the owner as there are no hidden mark ups, complete with full disclosure upon billing and allows you to add as much detail as is required to obtain the final vision. Construction Management Fee Contract On large scale projects, where drawings are continually under development throughout construction, a fixed-fee construction management style of contract can be performed. Based upon an agreed to scope of work, we can forecast the duration of the contract and the gross total required to manage it. This allows the drawings to be detailed yet flexible enough to accommodate elements from other designers along the way. Tamarack Signature Series Homes In 2019, the team at Tamarack North developed their Signature Series of custom-built, fixed priced homes. Though similar in nature to a fixed price contract, all the decision making is done for you, and all you must do is select a model and which of the 3 tiers you’d like Team Tamarack to build.
From the first consultation, to the day we break ground, to the day we hand you the keys, we will oversee every single detail.
