How long does it take until construction begins?
​The timeline for construction initiation can vary depending on the scope of work and the decisions made during the design phase. At Joseph Thomas Homes, we leverage our expertise to ensure the design phase is quick and efficient while meeting your specific needs. On average, custom home projects typically take around 6 months to move from design to construction. Laneway homes and additions have a shorter average timeline of approximately 3 months. It's important to note that the duration may also depend on the volume of permit activity in the particular city where your project is located. Our team is dedicated to providing a seamless and timely transition from planning to construction to bring your vision to life.
