How a project runs with ArquiVal

Five stages with defined deliverables. You know what you get and when, from the first site visit to handover.

  1. Site visit and survey

    On-site measurement, review of existing conditions and scope definition. Free within the bay.

  2. Design and budget

    Architectural drawings, line-item schedule and a budget with unit prices.

  3. Permits

    Building licences and municipal permits before Bahía de Banderas or Puerto Vallarta.

  4. Supervised execution

    Structure, systems and carpentry with an on-site superintendent, payroll control and weekly photo reports.

  5. Finishes and handover

    Fine finishes, punch list, detailed cleaning and handover with a written warranty.

Why we publish the process

Because most conflicts on residential projects are not technical, they are about expectations. The client thought something was included; the builder thought they had discussed something else. Publishing the process with deliverables per stage is the cheapest way to avoid it.

How billing works

Against verifiable progress, not against the calendar. Each payment corresponds to completed line items that can be checked on site, not to a contract date. It is more administrative work for us and it is the only way a client can know that what has been paid matches what has been built.

When something changes

Something always changes. A change of scope is priced against the unit prices already agreed, approved in writing and folded into the programme before it is executed. Nothing gets built on a "we will sort it out later" — that phrase is the origin of almost every project that ends badly.
