How It Works

The entire process typically takes about a year. The initial consultation, design, and planning take anywhere between 30 to 90 days. Next, we submit the plans to the County, and it can take up to 8 weeks for them to approve the permits. Then, construction can finally begin. We usually finish within 8 to 10 months of the permit approval. As much as possible, we coordinate subcontractors and make contingencies so everything can keep moving forward with your Shawn Lash Signature home.

While we try to address all possible issues before they become problems, we may encounter obstacles out of our control. We will advise you well in advance if we foresee any possible delays due to vendor schedules or product shortages/delays, and will work with you for an effective solution.

Shawn Lash, President of Lash Development, and his superintendent oversee the construction of your home—from lot clearing to slab pour and all the stages in between, to your final walk-through and home delivery. Shawn is available via cell, text, or email, and of course, in person.

To say you won’t have any change orders is not realistic, but it’s our goal to have as few as possible. While change orders are how typical franchise builders increase their profitability, we seek to streamline the process while remaining transparent. Ideally, the design plans we create together can carry through to completion so that reality matches your custom home vision!

We aim to minimize change orders during our budget meetings and design process, long before your home’s construction begins. If a contractor discovers an issue or you change your mind on something, we build in wiggle room so your custom home build stays on track.
