Preconstruction
Eastwood Homes has built new homes in Charleston SC, Charlotte, NC, and several other cities across the Carolina area. At the pre-construction meeting, you are invited to sit down with your New Home Specialist and superintendent to review your new Eastwood Home and introduce you to the building process. Together, you'll verify the placement of your home on the lot, review the blue prints, and talk about what you can expect during the process. Typically, this scheduled meeting will begin at the sales office and conclude on site at the lot.
Foundation
The foundation is the concrete structure that supports your entire house. Soil conditions are inspected and verified on each homesite, and the Homebuilding Superintendent performs his quality inspection prior to pouring any concrete. Then once the municipal inspector has conducted his inspection and found the job to be in compliance with applicable building codes, the foundation is placed.
Framing
The frame makes up the shell and defines the interior room layouts, and along with the foundation, provides the structural integrity for each home. Eastwood Homes utilizes engineered components including roof trusses and floor systems in every new home. Framing may last two to three weeks. Once the exterior sheathing and roofing are installed and the home is “dried-in”, the rough mechanicals can begin.
Rough Mechanicals
If the frame is the skeleton, then the rough mechanicals are the internal organs of your home. During this 1–3 week phase, air-conditioning, heating, ventilation, plumbing and electrical wiring are introduced to the structure. Siding and masonry may also begin during this period. If you've opted for any special security systems, central vacuum or pre-wiring for your stereo and entertainment centers, installation takes place at this point. The home is then ready for insulation and applicable municipal frame and mechanical inspections.
Customers will be asked to participate in a "pre drywall" or orientation to verify that all the options you selected are in place. Any questions regarding construction to this point can be addressed to the Superintendent, as well as, what you can expect throughout the remaining construction process.
