Drafting Your Future with Hemme Construction
Every successful project starts with a plan. Whether you’re building your dream home from the ground up or remodeling the one you already live in, the drafting process is where ideas take shape and become something tangible. At Hemme Construction, we view drafting as one of the most important steps in creating a home that’s beautiful, functional, and built to last.
What is Drafting & Why Does It Matter?
Drafting is the process of turning your vision into detailed plans that our construction team can build from. These plans include everything from the layout of your rooms to the placement of windows and doors. Without clear, accurate drawings, even the best ideas can fall short during construction. Drafting helps us:
- Ensure your design fits within your budget.
- Identify potential challenges before construction begins.
- Provide a clear picture of how your finished home or remodel will look and function.
The Hemme Process
We’ve built a streamlined process that keeps you involved and confident from start to finish:
- Initial Sketch & Ballpark Estimate – Within about two weeks of our first meeting, we provide a sketch and early cost estimate. This gives you a realistic sense of how your ideas align with your budget.
- Drafting Agreement – Once you’re ready to move forward, we create detailed drawings. During this stage, we’ll have weekly check-ins to refine the design, answer questions, and make adjustments as needed.
- Site Visit or Home Review – For new construction, we visit your lot to ensure the design takes full advantage of natural light, views, and the land’s layout. For remodels, we review your existing structure carefully so the new design flows seamlessly with the old.
- Final Draft & Approval – Once you’re happy with the plans, we finalize them and prepare for the construction phase.
The Benefits of Our Approach
- Clarity: You’ll know exactly what’s being built before construction starts.
- Confidence: Regular touchpoints mean you’re never left wondering what’s happening next.
- Flexibility: Plans can be adjusted early, which saves time and money compared to changes during construction.
- Accuracy: Detailed plans help keep your project on schedule and within budget.
Drafting for New Builds vs. Remodels
- New Construction: Drafting helps you visualize your future home before it’s built, ensuring every detail matches your vision.
- Remodeling: Drafting ensures the new design works harmoniously with your existing space while solving problems like flow, storage, or outdated layouts.

It might still feel like peak summer, but in the world of home remodeling, we’re already looking ahead to fall. Why? Because the best remodels aren’t rushed—they’re thoughtfully planned, carefully designed, and strategically scheduled to minimize stress and maximize results.
At Hemme Construction, we build homes that reflect you—right down to the spice drawer. And nowhere is your personality more on display than in the heart of the home: the kitchen. Whether you’re a meal-prep master or just really like cheese boards, your dream kitchen says a lot more about you than you might think.
When it comes to remodeling your home, we get it—you want the best for your space. But too often, we see homeowners asking for “cheap” when they really want “quality.”
At Hemme Construction, we believe that you shouldn’t have to make that compromise. Remodeling is an investment, and while budget is important, the real question is: What kind of value are you getting for your money?
As homes across the country continue to age, remodeling is becoming more than just a trend—it's a smart investment. According to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) , the remodeling market is poised for steady growth over the next several years, driven largely by the increasing age of owner-occupied homes. At Hemme Construction, we’re seeing this trend play out locally as well. More homeowners are turning to remodeling as a way to improve functionality, boost energy efficiency, and modernize outdated spaces without the cost and hassle of moving. And it’s no wonder—NAHB reports that the median age of owner-occupied homes in the U.S. is now over 40 years. That means many homes are in need of upgrades to meet today’s lifestyle and performance expectations.
As the weather warms up and the days get longer, there’s no better time to take your living space outside. At Hemme Construction, we believe your outdoor space should feel like an extension of your home—functional, stylish, and uniquely you. Whether you're dreaming of cozy evenings under the stars or weekend BBQs with friends, our remodeling team is here to bring that vision to life.
Spring has sprung! The birds are chirping, the flowers are blooming, and your home is ready for a little TLC after a long winter. At Hemme Construction, we believe home maintenance should be as fresh and exciting as the season itself. So, grab your toolbelt (or get us on the phone) and let’s dive into these easy, feel-good home maintenance tips!
