Professionalism Guaranteed
Custom Woodcraft Builders takes the mystery out of the cost of building your dream. CWB has a complete open book policy. We show you each and every expense and receipt associated with building your dream.
Everyone has in mind their goals, dreams and what they think it will cost. We will advise if that number matches your drawings and desires. Blueprints need to be made. We quote from that. Yes, there are square footage guidelines to ‘guess’ on price, but those are just initial guides. A spreadsheet is created. This, along with our agreed timeline are our ‘bible’. This spreadsheet and timetable are updated as real cost (and progress) are known. You will always know your grand total and it is an accurate number.
Here is a sample of a budget from mid-way through a recent project. You can see we also track a comparison to budget vs. actual so you stay in control of your cost: Budget Sample
Need a timber frame or timber truss quoted? Send us your plans. We make all Beamery frames in house here in Indianapolis. Feel free to watch our artisans handcraft your project. With Custom Woodcraft Builders, only ‘factory direct’ pricing.
CWB does not work for free. We just do not mark up any materials or subs. There are no commissions, incentives, revenue sharing or ‘behind the scenes arrangements’ with vendors. As your builder – contractor – construction manager, we agree in advance on a across the board percentage and we negotiate the best pricing. You take advantage of our industry wide relationships. You get the benefit of our wholesale direct prices. We can buy your materials less than you can – and we do. Actual hard cost plus our agreed contractor’s fee and that is the price of your project. Everyone knows what is spent at all times from beginning to end.
How do we get started? First get to know us and feel comfortable. Once you know in your heart CWB is the contractor you can trust, then it is time to begin. CWB does require a deposit, however 100% of that deposit applies to the purchase price at the very end. If drawings/blueprints need to be done, they are billed hourly. Once the deposit is paid, the CWB team of industry experts gets started taking the headache out of your dream and making it a reality.
That’s it. CWB keeps it simple, open and honest.
