Important

What a consultation is not.

Clear scope, set upfront.

A consultation is professional guidance — not a substitute for formal construction services. To keep expectations clear, the following are not included:

  • Formal estimates
  • Quantity takeoffs
  • Architectural services
  • Engineering services
  • Inspections
  • Code certification
  • Competitive bids
  • Permits
  • Construction documents

If your project needs these, a consultation is the right first step — we’ll point you toward preconstruction services or the appropriate professional.

Questions

Frequently asked.

How do I get started?

Submit the short screening form with your project details. RDP reviews every request and follows up to confirm fit before anything is booked.

What areas do you serve?

Virtual consultations are available broadly; on-site consultations depend on location. Share yours in the screening form and we’ll confirm.

When do I submit documents?

Once approved and booked, you’ll receive an intake form to submit project details and relevant documents in advance of your session.

What happens after the consultation?

You receive a written summary with recommended next steps. Where it makes sense, we can discuss preconstruction services or a proposal review.

What about payment, cancellations, and rescheduling?

Details are confirmed during booking after your project is approved. We’ll make the terms clear before you commit.
