Pick a project type below. These ranges come from real project experience — your consultation narrows them to your exact home.
What are you planning?
Pick a project above to see a typical cost range and where the money usually goes.
What really changes between tiers is timeline, not just quality — Premium buys a bigger crew and a faster schedule; Budget costs less but takes longer to finish. Your report spells out that trade-off in weeks, not just dollars.

Describe your project in your own words and add a few photos or a video. We'll send
back the step-by-step construction process for it — no charge, no obligation.
A construction sequence built around your project — the same order of operations we'd walk a client through, at no cost. The scope, materials, labor tiers, permits, and budget range stay part of the paid $500 report.

The same four mistakes account for most of the budget blowups and disputes I see
between homeowners and contractors.
Get at least three bids against the exact same written scope — otherwise you're comparing three different projects, not three prices.
Unpermitted work can hold up a sale, void insurance claims, and cost more to fix later than it would have to do right the first time.
Old wiring, hidden moisture, and outdated plumbing are the single biggest source of "surprise" costs once demo starts.
Missing line items don't disappear — they come back later as change orders, usually at a worse price than if they'd been scoped up front.
Every project — big or small — follows roughly the same sequence. Your report maps
this exactly to your job.

I'm not a general contractor bidding for your job, and I'm not a call center — I'm an
independent Certified Project Manager with 10+ years running residential
construction projects from the inside. My only role here is to be your guide: helping
you understand the real process, avoid the costs that catch homeowners off guard,
and walk into contractor conversations with clear, transparent information instead of
guesswork. No sales reps, no outsourced queue — you talk directly with the person
who writes your report.

A free estimate is usually written by someone hoping to win your job, and it rarely spells out full scope. This consultation is independent of any contractor — it's a detailed, written report that's yours to keep no matter who you hire.
No. ParaConstruction is a consultation and planning service. You walk away with a clear roadmap and report that you bring to any licensed contractor for bids.
Choose "Other project" in the questionnaire and describe what you're planning — every report is tailored to your answers, not a generic template.
No. The fee covers your consultation and full project report only. What you do with that report — including who you hire — is entirely up to you.
Online consultations are typically scheduled within about a week of booking. In-person visits depend on your location and current scheduling.
Prepared after your consultation, delivered as a document you keep and bring to
every bid meeting.
