Sample service architecture

Services

These five fictional service patterns demonstrate how design intelligence, construction rigor, scope boundaries, and next steps can be presented without disguising sample content as operating history.

Service 01

Custom Homes

This service-page pattern shows how a contractor can explain responsibility from vacant lot through closeout, including architect coordination, scope alignment, and evidence-backed schedule and budget communication.

What's included
  • Site analysis and geotechnical coordination
  • Pre-construction budgeting and value engineering
  • Full permit coordination across CA jurisdictions
  • Structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing
  • Custom millwork and finish carpentry
  • Landscaping and hardscape integration
  • Smart-home systems and AV rough-in
  • Approved warranty terms and coverage
Service 02

Whole-Home Renovation

A whole-home renovation with KEYSTONE means one contract, one schedule, one point of accountability. We sequence structural, seismic, mechanical, and finish work so that no trade returns twice and the client moves back in once. Our pre-construction team develops a phasing plan that minimizes disruption — most clients can occupy a portion of the home throughout construction.

What's included
  • Seismic soft-story and cripple-wall retrofits
  • Full MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) replacement
  • Kitchen and bath design + construction
  • Window and door replacement (energy code compliance)
  • Flooring, paint, tile, and finish coordination
  • Solar and battery-storage integration
  • ADU / in-law suite additions
  • Interior demolition and abatement coordination
Service 03

Design-Build

KEYSTONE's design-build model collapses the traditional gap between architect and contractor. Our in-house design director partners with clients from concept through construction documents, then hands the project to our field team with zero translation loss. Design decisions are made with real cost and schedule data from day one — no surprises at the end of schematic design.

What's included
  • Concept design and site feasibility
  • Schematic design and design development
  • Construction document production
  • Permit filing and agency coordination
  • Full construction management
  • Interior selections and procurement
  • Furniture, fixtures, and equipment coordination
  • Single contract — one point of accountability
Service 04

Commercial Fit-Out

This commercial service pattern foregrounds active neighbors, base-building coordination, occupancy milestones, and operational downtime. Replace sample categories with verified work and dated schedule evidence.

What's included
  • Tenant improvement permitting and base-building coordination
  • MEP design-assist and coordination modeling
  • Demising walls and structural alterations
  • Custom millwork and commercial casework
  • Commercial-grade flooring (terrazzo, hardwood, tile, carpet tile)
  • Acoustic systems and sound-rated assemblies
  • Data, AV, and building automation rough-in
  • ADA compliance and egress coordination
Service 05

Additions & ADUs

Additions are among the most technically demanding projects in residential construction: every connection to the existing structure is an opportunity for a cold joint, a water intrusion point, or a visible seam. KEYSTONE's approach treats the original building as a design constraint to be honored, not an obstacle to be ignored. We've built horizontal additions, second-story additions, detached ADUs, and everything in between.

What's included
  • Structural analysis of existing conditions
  • Foundation design and micro-pile alternatives
  • Roof and wall tie-in details
  • Energy code Title 24 compliance for new scope
  • Matching existing materials (stucco, siding, roofing)
  • ADU permitting under SB 9 and local ordinances
  • Utility connections (gas, electric, water, sewer)
  • Occupied-home construction phasing
