WOODWORKING DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
M.E. Contracting’s success is in large part a result of our insistence on excellent communication and transparency with the client. When we work on any design and construction project we employ a simple yet effective step-by-step process to ensure the client & M.E. Contracting team are on the same page.
Our process can be broken down into the following steps:
Consultation
Design
Estimate
Permits
Construction
Consultation
Each and every prospective client will first have a “discovery” conversation with the project manager to discuss the general aspects of the project.
Once we understand the project’s general outline we will schedule an on-premise consultation.
At the time of consultation the project manager will meet with the homeowners, and learn about the client’s “ideal project”, their “must-have”, their ideas, needs, and the budget they have.
We will take notes, pictures, and measurements. We will exchange ideas and then use the information collected to create an estimate to match the family’s lifestyle, needs, and budget.
Design
M.E. Contracting’s project manager will use the notes, measurements, and pictures he took at the initial consultation to create a preliminary design.
The design will take into consideration all aspects: structures, grading, existing trees, client’s needs, budget, etc.
Once the initial design is complete, the client will be presented with the layout where they are encouraged to provide feedback so a final revision can be prepared for quoting.
Estimate
Once the initial “rough” design has been agreed upon we will again meet with the client to discuss the various elements that go into the project such as materials, color options, etc.
We will develop the estimate accordingly and schedule a meeting to present and discuss the estimate with the client.
Permits
Once the final estimate is approved we will start working on the permit.
Each city or municipality has its own requirements, bylaws etc., therefore, time to receive the permit can vary greatly.
Construction
Once ready to go, M.E. Contracting will schedule the construction of the project, and prepare the crews, machinery, materials etc.
We will have a foreman, a project manager, and the landscaping designer all working together to stay true to the design, timeline, and budget

OUTDOOR WOODWORKING & CARPENTRY FAQS
Got questions about woodworking design & construction? we invite you to call and speak to a staff member. Meanwhile, we’ve put together a few answers to some of our commonly asked questions about outdoor woodworking design and construction below.
HOW LONG WILL A WOOD PERGOLA LAST?
With proper construction (We got you covered there!) and regular care and upkeep, a pergola can truly stand the test of time.
Wood pergolas will need to be stained, and painted every 7-10 years- although direct and consistent sunlight may cause paint to dry and/or chip slightly faster. Many finishes come with a lifetime warranty but quality materials, like the ones M.E Contracting is committed to using, can ensure increased longevity for your pergola.
DOES A PERGOLA ADD VALUE TO MY HOUSE RESELL VALUE?
Absolutely! One often overlooked point of value with the addition of a pergola is that it can be used to create seclusion in your own space. Have a neighbor with a less-than-luxurious backyard? You can avoid the personal eye-sore with a tastefully placed pergola. This ability to create space-defining layouts in your own backyard space is highly valuable in high-density areas. In fact, as with any upgrade to your home’s outdoor space, adding a pergola can be a major asset to your home’s value.
