🛠️ Our 5-Step Process:

From Quote to Completion

Turning your basement into a legal rental suite or dream space doesn’t have to be stressful.

At Value Rise Construction, we’ve simplified the renovation experience into a proven 5-step process—built on transparency, speed, and craftsmanship. Whether you’re planning a legal secondary suite or a stylish family hangout, here’s exactly what to expect after you book your free quote.


✅ Step 1: The Discovery Call

We start with a quick but detailed phone consultation to:

  • Understand your goals, budget, and timeline

  • Explain your options — legal (Permits) vs. non-legal (No Permits) construction

  • Flag key considerations upfront so there are no surprises later

You’ll get answers, insight, and clarity—right from the start.


📍 Step 2: On-Site Assessment

Next, we visit your home to assess:

  • Room dimensions, ceiling height, and layout potential

  • Egress window options and separate entry feasibility

  • Electrical, HVAC, and plumbing compatibility

We take real measurements and photos to ensure accuracy. This visit typically takes less than 30mins.


🧠 Step 3: Design + Detailed Quote

We prepare:

  • Multiple layout options tailored to your budget

  • Clear breakdowns: legal permit costs, finishes, and upgrade tiers

  • An itemized quote—everything included, no hidden fees

You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for and why.


📑 Step 4: Contracts & Permits

Once approved:

  • We issue a fixed-scope contract with payment milestones

  • Our team handles all permit applications, drawings, and engineering submissions

You stay updated at every stage—no chasing or guessing

💡At this stage:

  • You’ll also select your finishes from one of our three curated packages — Essential, Mid-Range, or Luxury.

  • Choose from our pre-designed selections, or mix and match to fit your vision. This includes finishes like flooring, tiles, vanities, and more.

  • We can even schedule a showroom visit to help you finalize your picks with confidence.


🔨 Step 5: Build & Handover

The transformation begins:

  • Site is prepared and crews mobilized

  • Weekly updates with walkthroughs at major stages

  • Final inspection and client sign-off only when you’re 100% satisfied

⏱️ Typical build time: 6–12 weeks from start to finish


🎯 Bottom Line: Fast, Fair & Fully Transparent

  • ✅ Quick turnaround (We're In-and-Out! Most builds complete in under 2 months)

  • ✅ Excellent workmanship backed by professional trades (Licensed Electricians, Plumbers, etc.)

  • Competitive pricing with detailed, honest quoting
    We offer the lowest possible price to get the job done right — balancing speed, craftsmanship, and long-term durability so your renovation stands the test of time.
