What is included in our Standard Quote?

In Costa Rica the most common way of treating the wastewater is with septic tank systems. 

We only use PVC elements to prevent infiltration by roots from nearby plants.

This occurs when moisture escapes the system through connections of different materials.

Adjustable Panel lids, better connections and broader options. While others still use CH or American Eagle to increase profits, we prefer to install peace of mind.

Yes, you heard that right. We use vapor barrier underneath the foundation and later also underneath the poured concrete floor.

Not only does it protect the building from moisture but also prevents the water from getting absorbed by the soil or compacting material during the pouring process.

This decreases the resistance of the concrete and accelerates dangerously the curing period.

You have a new house, are extremely motivated and happy, move in and then the first rain comes. Just walking around the house will cover your shoes in mud and the drops of rain will splash dirt onto your newly painted walls...

Yep, that sounds like a nightmare, and we have learned that this Standard, which most clients actually uncheck from the quote, will make your new home experience so much different. Not only in practicality but also visually.

With its high oil content, hardness and local availability, Teak is more resistant and better suited for Construction than almost any other type of wood in Costa Rica. (Considering as well that Teak is a Plantation tree and not part of the native forest.)​

Solar water heaters are the simplest, most effective and easy-to-maintain way to take advantage of Costa Ricas climate.

Save on electricity and be more self-sufficient!

Thicker walls mean thicker columns and thicker crown beams. This has many technical and visual benefits.

Thanks to this insulation you can enjoy a movie during the deepest rainy season and enjoy a cool house during the dry season.

Thick glass, aluminum frames, press sealed pains, full coverage slidable mosquito mesh. Maximum height as standard for sliding doors: 230cm (roughly 7,5 ft)

Our roof flashings are custom made to be wider and get longer sections. Flashings are also cut at the edges to adapt perfectly to the form of the roof, closing off any gap on the roof. 

​

Gutters and downspouts are of large capacity and are mounted with spacers to facilitate cleaning and painting the house later in the future.

Just imagine building your house and having a great experience, I know it sounds surreal after you hear so many stories online, but it is possible.

We take care of everything. You just have to decide on finishings, layouts and so on and get to enjoy your dream coming true step by step and hassle free.

During most Builds with international clients, the constructions took shape and got finished without the client being present full time. This way you can focus on other priorities.

Granite worktops are standard.

Not included are built ins, drawers, shelves etc. which would be done separately by a carpenter.

​

Instead of a glass partition for the shower, we can also build a wall with an illuminated shampoo nook as a shower division.
