How We Work

A clear process keeps your project on track and within scope. Here's what happens from first call to final walkthrough.

What's Involved

Most projects follow these core steps. We confirm scope, timeline, and expectations before any work starts—and keep you updated as we move through each phase.

1

Site Review & Permits

We evaluate your lot, confirm zoning compliance, and file permits with Lane County or the city. ADUs need 2+ acres and 100-foot siting rules—we handle those details.

2

Framing & Rough-In

Structural work, interior walls, electrical and plumbing layout. County inspectors sign off at each rough stage. Work pauses for mandatory inspections—no shortcuts.

3

Drywall, Finishes & Siding

Interior walls, insulation, exterior cladding or siding, windows and doors. Siding work gets final scrutiny in Lane County because of wet winters—quality installation matters.

4

Electrical, Plumbing & Systems

Final wiring, fixture installation, HVAC trim-out. Each trade pulls its own permit and stands behind its work. Inspectors verify code compliance before you occupy.

5

Final Walkthrough & Occupancy

County inspection. Touch-up work. Certificate of Occupancy issued. You move in knowing every system passed inspection and meets Oregon code.

You'll always know what's happening next—and when.

Our Services

We deliver a range of residential construction work across Cheshire, Creswell, Goshen, and nearby Lane County communities.

Framing & Structural Work

New home framing, additions, and structural modifications. We work with Oregon Residential Specialty Code rules, including wildfire mitigation requirements for properties outside city limits.

Common in rural Cheshire and Goshen: ranchettes and acreage with well-and-septic systems where lot size and setbacks are generous.

Home Additions

Room additions and living space expansions in Creswell

Second bedrooms, kitchens, covered porches, and full-room expansions. We match existing foundations, tie in new electrical runs, and coordinate final siding so seams are invisible.

Lane County addition permits require boundary surveys and setback verification—familiar territory for us.

ADU Construction

Accessory Dwelling Units on Rural Residential zoned land (2+ acres). These are real income streams: up to 900 sq ft, fully permitted under ORS 391.

We handle the plat, siting plan, and wildfire hazard review. No guesswork—clear compliance path from design through Certificate of Occupancy.

Siding & Exterior Cladding

Siding installation exterior work

Siding replacement and new exterior finishes

Fiber cement, vinyl, wood, or composite siding on new and existing structures. Lane County's wet winters demand tight weather seals and proper flashing—our siding work passes inspection.

Roof lines, soffit, trim details. If it's exterior and protects your home, we do it right.

Decks & Fence Installation

Pressure-treated or composite decking. Residential fence installation. Both require permits in Creswell; rural Cheshire and Goshen have setback rules we know cold.

Posts anchored deep for winter frost. Proper slopes for drainage. Materials chosen for climate longevity.

Why Local Expertise Matters

Cheshire and nearby Lane County have specific building rules, climate challenges, and permitting workflows. Being local saves time and money.

Permit Navigation

Lane County Building Safety and individual city departments (Creswell, Cottage Grove) each have different timelines and checklist items. We speak their language and file correctly the first time.

ADU permits in Lane County rural areas require siting diagrams, setback measurements, and wildfire hazard clearance. We handle all three before submitting.

Climate & Material Know-How

The Long Tom River valley gets seasonal moisture. Roofing, siding, and foundation work must withstand wet winters. We choose materials and details that survive here.

Proper flashing. Graded drainage. Breathable systems. These aren't optional—they're survival.

Inspection Coordination

County inspectors know us. We call them at the right moments, they show up on schedule, and sign-offs move projects forward. No surprise delays when foundations, framing, or mechanical work gets reviewed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for an addition or new structure in Lane County?

Yes—any new construction, additions, or structural work requires Lane County or city building permits. Cheshire properties typically file with Lane County unless you're inside city limits (Creswell, Cottage Grove, Junction City). We file for you.

What are the rules for ADUs on my Cheshire property?

Lane County allows one ADU per property if the lot is Rural Residential zoned, at least 2 acres, has a single-family dwelling, and the ADU is within 100 feet of the main home and under 900 sq ft. We verify zoning, measure setbacks, and handle all paperwork.

How long does a typical project take in Cheshire?

Permits usually take 4–8 weeks. Construction timelines depend on project scope: a deck or fence may be 2–4 weeks; a full addition or ADU build is typically 4–6 months once permits clear. Weather in winter can add time.

Do I need to worry about wildfire hazard mitigation for my project?

It depends on your lot location. Some Lane County properties are in high wildfire hazard zones and require Oregon Residential Specialty Code Section R327 compliance (clearances, materials, roof design). We review your property and guide you on requirements.

Can you handle siding work on existing homes near Creswell?

Yes. We replace and install siding on new builds and re-sides. For Creswell city properties, we check code; for rural homes, we match existing or upgrade materials to handle local moisture and weather.

What if my property is in Goshen or outside Cheshire?

We work throughout Lane County. Goshen, rural areas north of Junction City, and even into Cottage Grove—if it's near Cheshire, we can reach it. Call us with your address and project idea.
