Our process

Commissioning a custom structure should feel exciting, not overwhelming. Our process is designed to be clear, calm, and predictable from the first conversation to your first session.

Stage 01

Discovery & consultation

We start with a conversation about your property, goals, and constraints. We review inspiration images, talk through rough budget and timing, and determine whether we’re the right fit.

  • Initial call or on-site visit in the Austin metro area
  • Review of inspiration photos and references
  • Preliminary budget and timeline alignment
Stage 02

Concept design

We develop a concept that defines form, orientation, and basic layout. You see how the structure sits on your site and how you’ll move through it.

  • Conceptual floor plan and elevations
  • Early 3D views or visualizations
  • Initial materials direction
Stage 03

Detailed design & proposal

Once we align on a concept, we refine drawings and assemble a transparent proposal with clear scope, allowances, and schedule expectations.

  • Detailed plans and key construction details
  • Selection of heater and cold equipment options
  • Line-item proposal with allowances and contingencies
Stage 04

Construction

With an agreement in place, we build. Construction is managed with the same rigor we apply to large projects—just on a more intimate, focused scale. You receive regular updates and milestone check-ins.

  • All construction handled in-house with vetted trades
  • Weekly progress updates with photos or videos
  • Scheduled on-site check-ins at key phases
Stage 05

Handover, orientation & care

At completion, we walk the space with you, review operation and care, and discuss warranty and optional maintenance support.

  • Final walkthrough and punch list completion
  • Sol Haus care and maintenance guide
  • Warranty documentation and optional service plans

Communication, by design.

You’ll have a single point of contact and a simple way to review drawings, documents, and updates. We adapt to your preferred style—email, scheduled calls, or a shared project space—but the throughline is the same: no surprises.
