Our Process & Technology
Phase One is
Planning & Design
Preparation of all necessary architectural plans and specifications, septic design and other engineering that may be required; i.e., geotechnical, civil, structural, etc.

CP Cottages charges a flat fee to manage this process. All other costs; i.e., drafting, engineering, permit fees, etc. are billed to our client.
Upon completion of the PLANNING & DESIGN Phase, our client will have a full set of plans and specifications, a Development and Building Permit so that construction can proceed.
Phase Two is
Construction
CP Cottages will provide a fixed price quotation to construct the cottage based on the plans and specifications from the Phase One design. This quotation will include the screw pile foundation, building envelope, exterior finishes, windows, doors, interior partitions and finishes, plumbing, HVAC and electrical.
