Episode Description from the Publisher

Unexpected conditions are part of building a one-of-a-kind home. A weather delay, unforeseen site condition, material issue, design change, or change order doesn’t mean your custom home build has gone off track. What matters is how your builder responds. In this episode of The Art of Custom, Hibbs Luxury Homes construction leaders Craig Johnson and Chris Pedigo join us to talk candidly about what happens when challenges arise during the custom home construction process. You’ll also learn why documentation and approvals matter, how seemingly small design decisions can create ripple effects throughout construction, and the questions homeowners should ask when something unexpected happens. Because measure of a successful custom build isn’t lack of problems, it is how an experienced team, a clear process, and open communication keeps your project moving toward a beautifully finished home.
