Dane Stevenson established Arkwright Construction in 2011. In the years since, he’s grown Arkwright from a one-man show into a robust team of like-minded, dedicated craftspeople who mirror his passion for building and unwavering standards.
Dane’s journey as a craftsman began with countless hours in his father’s cabinet shop. The scent of freshly cut wood, the steady hum of power saws, and the joy of creating something beautiful and useful with his own hands ignited his love for building. These early experiences laid the foundation for his lifelong dedication to craftsmanship.
It was from that passion and early years spent honing his craft that Arkwright Construction was born. Dane knows what it takes to craft the most beautiful homes meticulously and has slowly assembled the team he trusts to build with the same obsessive attention to detail and integrity. By collaborating with other like-minded specialists (from architects and structural engineers to stone fabricators and decorative finishers), Arkwright is able to offer a full-service experience for even the most complicated projects. Together, the team tackles each build with the same dedication and enthusiasm as if it were their own.
Over the years, Arkwright has mastered what it takes to craft beautiful and long-lasting homes and—as importantly—the processes for doing so seamlessly from start to finish. Our refined process reduces stress with fewer contracts and a single, dedicated point of contact for consistent communication and budget control.
This is the first step towards making your project dreams a reality. We meet to discuss your vision, budget, and expectations. You'll receive a comprehensive guidance brochure and review the Professional Services Agreement (PSA) in person.
This agreement does not commit the customer to hire Arkwright for construction, but it provides access to our expertise in project development and planning. We’ll work with you to develop detailed estimates, make recommendations for value engineering to achieve goals within budget, and offer design assistance, all before committing to the construction phase. All documents, descriptions of the scope of work, and allowances are yours to keep, including for reference in bidding the work out to other contractors if desired.
With our discovery complete, we’ll meet to review all project details, timeline, and proposed payment plan. You’ll also meet your personal project manager to prepare for the logistics of proceeding into construction. Based on our development meeting, design plans, and your feedback, we’ll finalize a guaranteed price for your project and provide the Construction Agreement for approval and deposit. This also secures your start date on our schedule.
With construction underway, we handle it all: ordering all materials, scheduling deliveries and subtrades, vendor communication, and overseeing all work to ensure it conforms to the highest standard. Your project manager tracks your renovation or build through every step, keeping you updated along the way. Based on your communication preferences, you can expect summary emails, meetings, or calls, detailed photo documentation, and timeline updates.
If you find during your project that you want to make changes or additions, we’re happy to accommodate. Our Construction Agreement details that process and how we’ll handle any additional costs.
As construction nears completion, we’ll conduct a comprehensive walkthrough to ensure top-quality craftsmanship. After a final review meeting to address any questions (including operation of any new systems or appliances), we’ll perform a complete clean-up. All punch-list items or final touches needed will be documented and provided to you along with the timeline for their completion.
Among the biggest thrills of our work is seeing you enjoy your beautiful new space. We want you to rest easy, knowing that our best-in-class three-year warranty backs our work. We truly appreciate your trust in us for your renovation journey!
