Frequently Asked Questions
What people ask before reaching out to Southern Shore Homes.
Is there a cost for the initial consultation?+
No. Your first conversation with Southern Shore is complimentary and carries no obligation. We'll discuss your project, answer questions about our process and pricing, and help you understand what's realistic for your budget and timeline. If we're not the right fit — and we'll tell you honestly if we're not — you'll walk away with useful information and a clearer picture of your options.
What should I prepare before contacting Southern Shore?+
Nothing formal — but the more you can share, the more productive the initial conversation will be. Helpful things to have on hand: your property address or general location, rough budget range (even if it's a wide range), desired timeline, any inspiration photos or Pinterest boards, and a general sense of the project scope. If you don't have all of this — or any of it — that's fine. We'll guide the conversation.
Do you work with clients who already have plans from another architect?+
Yes. If you've already developed architectural plans, we're happy to review them and provide a construction bid. If the plans need modifications — for code compliance, cost optimization, or buildability — our design team can handle those changes. You retain ownership of your plans and the architect relationship if you want to keep it.
How quickly can you start a project after the initial consultation?+
It depends on our current project load and the scope of your project. For custom homes, we typically have a 2–4 month pipeline from signed agreement to groundbreaking (design finalization + permitting). For renovations and smaller projects, the timeline is often shorter. The best way to find out current availability is to call or submit the form — we'll give you an honest answer about when we can start.
