Foundation to Final Walkthrough: Six Steps to Your Perry Home
Building a new home is an exciting milestone, and we’ve streamlined the process even further to make it as easy as possible. Our carefully refined six-step home construction process ensures every home meets our uncompromising standards of quality, craftsmanship and energy efficiency. From laying the foundation to the final walkthrough, here’s what to expect when building with Perry Homes.
Step 1: Homesite Preparation and Foundation
A strong foundation is the key to a long-lasting home. Before construction begins, we:
- Prepare the homesite by securing permits, clearing the land and strategically positioning your home for optimal function and curb appeal.
- Install underground utilities, including plumbing and electrical connections, before pouring the foundation.
- Lay a reinforced concrete foundation, designed by licensed engineers and strengthened with steel cables (not applicable in all areas).
- Conduct structural inspections to ensure quality, backed by a 10-year structural warranty for peace of mind.
Step 2: Framing the Structure
Once the foundation is in place, your home starts to take shape. This phase includes:
- Constructing walls, floors and the roof structure, using engineered designs that meet local building codes and wind safety regulations.
- Installing windows and exterior doors to enhance security, insulation and energy efficiency.
- Completing a structural inspection before moving to the next stage.
Step 3: Roofing, Exterior Trim and Mechanical Systems
With the frame complete, we enclose the home and install essential systems to maximize energy efficiency and durability:
- Roofing and exterior trim installation to protect against the elements and enhance curb appeal.
- Mechanical rough-ins, including plumbing, electrical wiring and HVAC system installation, ensuring long-term performance and sustainability.
- High-performance insulation to regulate indoor temperatures.
Step 4: Interior Trim and Finishing Touches
With the exterior nearly complete, we turn our attention indoors, refining the details that make a house feel like home:
- Installing cabinetry, moldings, baseboards and doors to add character and elegance.
- Painting walls and ceilings with high-quality finishes for a polished look.
- Laying tile and preparing flooring for final installation.
Step 5: Flooring, Fixtures and Final Installations
This stage brings everything together, ensuring the interior is move-in ready:
- Installing flooring options such as luxury vinyl plank, tile or carpet, depending on your home design.
- Adding final mechanical trim, including light fixtures, plumbing fixtures and HVAC vents.
Step 6: Landscaping and Final Touches
The final step ensures your home is as beautiful outside as it is inside:
- Landscaping and hardscaping installation, including driveways, sidewalks, patios and fencing to enhance curb appeal.
- Conducting a final quality inspection, verifying every detail meets Perry Homes’ high standards.
- Detailed home orientation to guide you through your new home's features and provide essential maintenance tips.
