Our Process

Whether for remodeling, demolition, deck building, or another residential or commercial project, working with Westward Builders is straightforward and easy. We’re a no-nonsense company, which is evident in our solutions and client care. What can you expect when you reach out to us for your next project? 

Below are more details about our working process. 

Step 1: Schedule a Site Walk

We’ll start by meeting you on-site to walk through your project. 

During this visit, we’ll:

  • Review the full scope of work so we’re clear on your goals.
  • Go over project plans, including layout and design features.
  • Look at any existing permits and ensure everything is on track from a compliance standpoint.
  • Discuss material preferences, whether you already have selections in mind or need guidance from our team.
  • Talk through the rough timeline and make sure it aligns with your expectations.

This step helps us understand your vision inside and out, while also identifying requirements and potential challenges upfront. With 50+ years of experience, we have the know-how to spot potential issues before they become expensive surprises.

Step 2: Provide a Timeline

After the site walk, we provide a realistic project timeline. This gives a clear idea of how long the work will take and when to expect us to complete each project phase. 

Step 3: Determine Subcontractor Needs

Next, we evaluate whether any part of the job requires subcontracting. With our in-house team and wide range of capabilities, this step does not often come into play. When it does, however, we only work with trusted professionals who meet our high standards.

Step 4: Deliver a Detailed Estimate

Once the scope and logistics are clear, we prepare a comprehensive estimate for your review. This estimate outlines all costs, so there are no surprises later. When you’re ready to move forward, a $1,000 down payment is typically required to lock in your project.

Step 5: Construction & Completion

When you approve the estimate, our licensed and insured team kicks things into high gear. We’ll coordinate all permits and regulatory requirements, removing the administrative burden from your shoulders. Throughout construction, our team will maintain continuous communication with regular progress updates, so you're never left wondering about your project's status.

Our complete fleet of trucks and equipment means significant cost savings for you and greater control over project timelines and quality standards. 

Throughout our time in business, we’ve delivered great results for clients across Marin and Sonoma counties. You, too, can trust our family of builders and problem solvers at Westward Builders.

    Wonderful Construction

    Westward Builders just finished a wonderful construction for a new studio on a hillside. A big part of the job was excavating the hillside and building a huge retaining wall. We did not even dream that it could go so smoothly and be so aesthetically p
