Our Process

To begin with, we divide the construction of the residence into 2 phases – the SHELL phase and the FINISHES phase. 

THE SHELL PHASE

The SHELL phase includes everything from foundation through drywall and is completed by 1 & Done.  Our shells are built to last lifetimes.  We take pride in their design and construction and we only trust these processes to our proven network of high-quality suppliers and contractors. 

See the below the list for our Shell Standard Features. These are just our starting point. Actual features on every home are per owner specifications.
• Dried dimensional lumber where available
• Plywood wall and roof sheathing
• High efficiency Milgard windows.  Other top brands are also available.
• Exterior doors  - choose from top brands, styles and materials
• 2x10 fingerjointed, edge-glued and primed barge boards with 1x3 shadow board
• 2x6 fingerjointed, edge-glued and primed fascia boards
• James Hardi lap siding standard with fingerjointed, edge-glued and primed trim
• Owens Corning Duration Roof Shingles with non-prorated warranty
• White steel 6” K-style gutters with cleanouts at all downspouts
• Custom rough-in plumbing per custom cabinet plan
• Custom Electrical Plan
• Custom HVAC System - Type and fuel of your choice
• High efficiency insulation package that meets or exceeds all Energy Star requirements.  

THE FINISHES PHASE

The real collaboration process begins in the FINISHES phase. 

Because structure and longevity matter, 1 & Done constructs the Shell of your home and offers our customers the opportunity to increase both their equity and pride of ownership by working directly with project management on the finishes processes. Therefore, we created a system to give our customers the option to participate at whatever level they are comfortable with (or not at all).  The Finishes Phase includes the categories below.  

• Exterior Paint
• Interior Paint
• Cabinets
• Countertops
• Tile
• Flooring
• Interior Trim/All doors and hardware
• Finish Hardware
• Appliances and Installation
• Cleanup – both construction and final cleaning
