The Cedar & Stone process
Know what comes next.
A clear process does more than keep a schedule moving. It gives homeowners the information and confidence to make good decisions at the right time.

Five considered stages
From first conversation to finished home.
Every project has its own conditions. The path should still be understandable. These five stages create the framework; the proposal defines what each one includes for your home.
- 01
Step 1
Consultation
We begin with the home, the problem you want to solve, your priorities, timing, and a candid conversation about investment.
We listen before we prescribe. - 02
Step 2
Project Walkthrough
We meet at the property, study existing conditions, take measurements, and identify the questions that need answers before pricing.
The home tells us what the photos cannot. - 03
Step 3
Proposal & Planning
Scope, allowances, selections, responsibilities, and schedule are organized into a clear plan before work begins.
Decisions become a buildable plan. - 04
Step 4
Construction
The work proceeds with a defined point of contact, protected living areas, documented decisions, and regular updates.
Communication remains part of the craft. - 05
Step 5
Final Walkthrough
We review the finished work together, resolve remaining details, and close the project with documentation—not a rushed exit.
Completion is a process, not a date.
Across every step
Clear scope.
Documented decisions.
Respect for the home.
Unexpected conditions can happen—especially in older Pittsburgh homes. The standard is not pretending surprises never occur. It is investigating carefully, explaining the options, and agreeing on the path forward before work changes.
