Your Custom Home From Vision to Reality: The 6-Step Arris Way

We’ve spent three decades refining a Design-Build process that eliminates the “construction anxiety” common in Colorado Springs. By providing a single point of accountability from the first sketch to the final inspection, we ensure your project is delivered with surgical precision.

Our 6-Step ‘Arris Way’ is designed to eliminate the common friction points of Colorado construction, from navigating bentonite soil reports to securing Pikes Peak Regional Building Department permits.

✅ Discovery & Site Feasibility

It starts with a deep dive into your goals. We evaluate your lot or commercial space for feasibility, considering El Paso County zoning, Pikes Peak topography, and 2026 code requirements. We do this to establish a realistic investment range.

✅ Design & Integrated Planning

Our design team translates your vision into architectural plans. Unlike traditional models, we provide real-time cost feedback during the design phase, ensuring your dream doesn't outpace your budget.

✅ The Pre-Construction Agreement (PCA)

This is where we eliminate "surprises." We finalize every fixture, finish, and engineering detail to provide you with a Fixed-Price Contract and a definitive construction schedule.

✅ PPRBD Permitting & Approvals

We handle the "red tape." Arris manages the entire application process through the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department, fire authorities, and utility providers, ensuring your project is 100% legal and compliant.

✅ Managed Construction & Quality Control

Work begins under the eye of a Dedicated Site Lead. Utilizing our A-1 Licensed expertise, our master craftsmen execute the build with strict adherence to safety and quality standards, providing you with weekly transparent updates.

✅ Handover & Structural Warranty

A project isn’t finished until the final walkthrough is flawless. We provide you with a complete Close-Out Packet, including maintenance guides, permits, and our industry-leading structural warranty for long-term peace of mind.
