How We Work

A Clear Path to the Home You Want

With our design-build approach you have one team, one contract and one person responsible from start to finish. Here is what working with us looks like.

1

Free Consultation & Project Discovery

It starts with a conversation. We listen to what you have in mind, talk about your goals and your budget, and answer your questions. This first call is free and there is no obligation. It's how we both find out if we are the right fit.

If it is a good fit, we schedule a visit to your home to look at the space, talk through options and get a clear picture of the full project.

What you get: A realistic idea of what is possible, the expected timeline and the next steps.

2

In-Home Assessment & Design Agreement

After that first conversation, we visit your home for a detailed assessment. We take measurements, check for structural issues and talk through design ideas in the actual space. This is what lets us build an accurate, realistic plan.

At this stage we give you a Design Agreement that lays out the design phase, including any drawings, 3D renderings or engineering that the project needs.

What you get: A detailed look at your space and a clear design agreement.

3

Design & Material Selections

This is where the project really takes shape. We work with you on the plans and help you choose materials, finishes, fixtures and colors. We can go to showrooms with you and give honest recommendations based on your style, your budget and how the space will be used.

Good decisions come from good information. We lay out the options, explain the pros and cons and make sure you feel confident about every choice before we move on.

What you get: Final design plans, material selections and a complete project specification.

4

Final Budget, Contract & Permits

Once the design and materials are set, you get a fixed-price construction contract. It covers the full scope of work, a line-item budget, the expected timeline and the payment schedule. No hidden fees and no surprises.

We also handle all the permits, so everything meets local and state building codes before construction starts.

What you get: A clear, fixed-price contract and all the permits in hand.

5

Construction & Project Management

Construction starts as soon as the permits are in. Marcos Damasceno oversees every Regulus project, and our crew coordinates every trade, detail and deadline.

You get regular updates during the build and can reach Marcos directly. We keep the job site clean, safe and organized, because we know you are living in your home while we work.

What you get: The owner on site, regular updates and a clean job site.

6

Final Walkthrough & Your Finished Home

Near the end, we walk through the space with you and check every detail. We look over the work, test every fixture and system, and make sure everything meets our standards and, most of all, yours.

The job is not done until you are happy with it. After the walkthrough, we give you the warranty information and care instructions, so you know your project was built to last.

What you get: A finished space you love and full warranty paperwork.

The Regulus Difference

What Makes a Project Go Well

We build spaces people love and relationships that last, based on honesty, accountability and solid craftsmanship.

Marcos is on site for every project. You will never deal with a subcontractor you haven't met or a foreman who doesn't know your name.

Clear, Fixed Pricing

No surprise invoices and no hidden fees. Before work starts, you get a detailed, itemized proposal with a fixed price, and we stand by it.

Clean Job Sites

You are living in your home while we work, and we treat it that way. We clean up every day and use dust barriers to protect the rest of the house.

Regular Communication

You will always know where your project stands. We send regular updates, answer questions quickly and keep you posted at every milestone.

We had our basement renovated from scratch and everything came out as we wanted. I would recommend using Regulus for any construction related project. Price wise as well, it was the best and most honest.

Common Questions

Process FAQs

How long does the design phase typically take?

Design usually takes 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the project. A simple bathroom may need less time, while a home addition or a kitchen with custom cabinets can take longer to finalize the plans and selections.

What is included in the fixed-price contract?

It includes the full scope of work, all labor and materials, permit fees, a detailed timeline and the payment schedule. It gives you a clear picture of the whole project and protects you from unexpected costs.

Do you handle all permits and inspections?

Yes. We handle all permits and inspections from start to finish and make sure the work meets local and Massachusetts building codes.

What happens if I want to make a change during construction?

Changes go through a written change order. We talk it through with you, write down the cost and the effect on the schedule, and wait for your written approval before doing any extra work.

Will Marcos really be on my job site every day?

Yes. Owner supervision isn't a marketing line for us. It's how we work. Marcos is on every active job site to check the quality, coordinate the trades and keep the project on schedule and on budget.
