I highly recommend APEX Building Services for home remodeling. They added a second story over my garage from A to Z. Cheryl Nelson began by listening to my needs and drawing up plans for a space that is practical, comfortable and beautiful. Wes Nelson took care of the permitting process. He is in charge of the building side of the business. Everyone I dealt with at Apex knew what they were doing. They worked very hard, with heavy loads, under … continue reading

A Brand New Home at Your Current Location

Why a Home Addition Could Be the Right Choice for Your Family

If you love where you live (and as locals of Central Washington, we know that feeling), but your family is expanding or you’re just ready for a fresh space, a home addition can be a great choice! With a home addition by Apex, you get to combine the fresh feeling of a new home with the comfortability of staying exactly where you are – no moving vans required.

Leave Your Home Remodel to the Pros!

With over 20 years in the business, we know what we’re doing.

With years serving the Lake Chelan area as a general contractor, we have the experience you need to complete your home construction project. Home additions require the know-how of home builders who know what it takes to build a new house as well as build on to existing homes. We’ve done it all. With Apex, you never have to worry about building codes or permits – we’ll take care of the details, and you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your new home.

The Process

At Apex, we have a design-build process. This means that all of the key aspects of your project are handled by a single team – from design, to building, to warranty. This approach ensures that the vision you start with becomes a reality in the final redesign of your home addition.
As we partner with you to craft your custom space, you will enjoy the stability of having only one main point of contact – your project manager, so you will always know about any changes in a timely manner.

Step 1: Let's Talk

During this phase, we’ll get acquainted to see if we are a fit for each other. Since you are reading this, that process is already underway! We’ll do a deep dive into your vision and make sure that we “get it.”

We’ll talk about your budget in relation to your vision, consider possible options and explain how financing or payments to us work. We’ll talk schedule, your role in the project and what you can expect from us. We’ll be unfailingly honest– telling you what will be fun– and what won’t. And we’ll leave you with a complete guidance kit full of useful information to help you understand not only who we are but also how projects like yours works.

Step 2: The Design Agreement

Prior to entering into a Construction Agreement together, there will be pre-construction processes for which there will be fees. These fees are separate from the construction contract. These pre-construction processes will be handled with what is called a Professional Services Agreement or PSA. Your PSA will usually include costs for doing a detailed estimate that assures you a quality, completed project at a guaranteed price. The PSA will usually cover design services and sometimes some demolition and discovery work if required to create a guaranteed project price for you. The PSA does not obligate you to enter into a Construction Agreement with us and you own the results of the design work covered by the PSA.

Step 3: Project Development

With all or most of the results of the PSA work in hand, we will meet with you to talk through the project. We will take all the time you want to be comfortable and confident. We’ll go over the scope of work, project plan, progress payments, timelines, logistics and concerns. You will meet your personal project manager and discuss how communications can be handled.

Step 4: The Construction Agreement

We will now have all the information to provide a guaranteed price for your project, you will have signed off on the design and production plan. You’ve met your project manager and know who will be doing what to whom.

We will provide an Agreement for our mutual signatures. We will go over and explain every detail of our straightforward Agreement.

Step 5: Project Management

During the building phase we will handle all the details of ordering local materials, scheduling, oversite and coordination. Concurrently we will diligently keep you up to date on progress and issues.

Step 6: In-Process Changes

No matter how carefully we plan your project together you will probably want to make some changes along the way. We are prepared to cheerfully accommodate any changes you want to make. Our Agreement will explain how costs associated with your changes will be handled.

Step 7: Project Completion

During this completion phase we will meticulously inspect to ensure that craftsmanship level have been maintained throughout the project. We will do a final review meeting with you to answer any operational questions regarding appliances, heating and cooling systems and any other operational questions. We will do a final clean up to the highest standards possible both within the project and anything on the property that we touched. We will set you up with a document to list anything you might run across that wasn’t done right.

Step 8: Enjoy Your Home!

Enjoy your transformed home and thank you for letting us be a part of your dreams!
