Our Concierge Construction Method
1. Discovery Call
We listen to your goals, constraints, and timeline.
2. On-Site Assessment
We review existing conditions, utilities, and feasibility for setbacks and structure.
3. Paid Design Agreement
We document as-builts, develop schematic options, validate the Provo permit path (including any site plan or planning items), and prepare preliminary pricing so you can decide with confidence. This is a paid, pre-construction phase.
4. Construction Contract
With drawings, selections, and bids in hand, we lock scope, budget, and schedule—so build is predictable.
5. Permitting & Procurement
We assemble the permit submittal and coordinate with the City; long-lead items are ordered early to protect the schedule. (Provo typically requires a site plan with residential additions; we prepare and submit what’s needed.)
6. Build & Updates
You receive scheduled progress updates and documented change decisions; the site stays clean, safe, and respectful of neighbors.
7. Walk-Through, Closeout & Warranty
We complete punch-list thoroughly and provide warranty documentation.

Provo Know-How: Permits, Setbacks & Design Criteria
Navigating Provo’s requirements is part of our service:
- Site Plan Requirement: For most additions, Provo asks for a scaled site plan to verify setbacks, utilities, and lot coverage. We’ll prepare what the City needs and submit for you.
- Who to Call (We handle it): Planning (setbacks/height) and Building (permits). We coordinate directly with both teams during pre-construction.
- Typical R1 Yard Requirements: Setbacks and height limits vary by zone; our team verifies your property’s requirements before design, so drawings are code-compliant.
- ADU Licensing: If your addition functions as an ADU, Provo requires an RDL (rental dwelling license) and compliance with ADU standards; we’ll confirm whether your concept qualifies.
- Second Kitchens: Adding a second kitchen in a one-family dwelling may require a recorded Notice of Occupancy Restriction (limiting occupancy to a single family). We’ll flag and handle the paperwork if applicable.
- Engineering & Climate: Provo uses design criteria such as 30 psf roof snow load (40 psf in bench areas), 30″ frost depth, 115 mph 3-sec gust wind, and Seismic D2. We design and schedule accordingly for durability and comfort year-round.
Permits: In Utah County and Provo, additions generally require a building permit; we prepare the application, plans, and checklists, and coordinate approvals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for my addition?
Yes—additions require a building permit; we handle submittal, plans, and inspections.
What about setbacks and height?
They vary by zone (e.g., R1 standards). We verify your parcel’s setbacks before design to keep drawings compliant.
What if my addition includes a rentable suite or second kitchen?
ADUs require licensing; a second kitchen in a single-family home can trigger an occupancy restriction form. We’ll advise and file what’s needed.
How long does a typical addition take?
Timeline depends on scope and approvals. Our Paid Design Agreement clarifies drawings, selections, bids, and permit path so your construction schedule is realistic—before work begins.
Can we live in the home during construction?
Often yes. We plan dust/partitioning, daily cleanup, and quiet hours to respect your routine and neighbors.
Do you provide weekly updates?
Yes—clear, scheduled updates covering progress, decisions, and any changes so you’re never guessing.
