DAVE’S FORM SYSTEM

Dave has set up an organized FORM SYSTEM that keeps your remodeling project Completely Organized. Through a series of forms that the customer receives as the job progresses, you will be guided through a smooth and easy build process. You will be given a form when listing certain items that the homeowner will be required to pick out as the project progresses.

There is plenty of time before we need these few critical items. Dave also organizes how and when items will be needed onsite. . Also Pangione Developers has custom fixture, tile and other miscellaneous forms that we fill out which pertain to the exact quantities and sizes of the items that you will need. Only those items marked urgent will be needed in the next couple of weeks, everything else, again wont be needed until the end. But we wont discourage you from going out early on and looking around to see what you like to get some early ideas.

4) Can we pick out our own fixtures and tile?

Yes, Pangione Developers does not purchase tile, fixtures, fixtures or cabinets. We fill out the custom forms for bath 1, bath 2 , laundry tile , foyer, etc. Each form is given to the homeowner.

5) Does Pangione Developers pay for the tile, fixtures or do we?

Pangione Developers provides allowances which are mentioned in great detail in their contract. The homeowners will go and purchase their items with allowances and towards the end of the contract they will receive a credit for the specified amounts specified for each item. In the end , you get exactly what you want and you get credited the amounts stated in the contract.

6) How long does the job take?

We specify in our “Job Stages form in each contract that raised levels take approximately 10-12 weeks and additions 10 – 12 weeks. Keep in mind we usually finish all jobs in 6-8 weeks, weather permitting. Also any job consisting of an addition, keep in mind that a foundation will need to be built and depending on the town, there are usually 3-4 inspections involved in building the foundation alone which pending the time of year and weather, this can increase the building time frame a bit. Also, if your project includes a bank loan, then the time of completion may take longer. More on 203k style loans later.
