Process · Four phases

Brief to live in four phases.

Every Buildhaus project follows the same four phases. We learn, we draw, we ship, and then we stay. Four to six weeks. Fixed price. No surprises.

Week 1 · Discovery
01

We learn the business.

A 90-minute working session plus a week of follow-up questions, competitor audit, and content inventory. By the end of week one you have a written brief that any new team member could pick up and run with.

What we ship

  • Written brief (12 pages typical)
  • Competitor audit (5 to 8 sites)
  • Content inventory
  • Success measures

What you approve

  • Goals + audience
  • Scope + must-haves
  • Tone + voice direction
  • Delivery calendar
Week 2 · Design
02

We draw the thing.

Wireframes first, then visual design, then a prototype. You see it, feel it, and approve it before a single line of production code is written. Wireframes lock the structure so pixels can move freely on top.

What we ship

  • Wireframes (every page, every breakpoint)
  • Visual design in Figma
  • Brand kit if in scope
  • Interactive prototype

What you approve

  • Wireframe structure
  • Visual direction
  • Brand kit
  • Sign-off to build
Weeks 3 to 5 · Develop
03

We hand-code the build.

Clean code, fast load times, mobile-first. CMS, ordering, payments, automations, all integrated. Weekly check-ins. Staging URL you can share with your team while we work, so nothing is a surprise on launch day.

What we ship

  • Hand-coded site (HTML, CSS, JS)
  • CMS + content migration
  • E-commerce + payments if in scope
  • Automations + integrations

What you approve

  • Weekly staging review
  • Content sign-off
  • Payments + checkout test
  • Launch readiness
Week 6+ · Launch + grow
04

We stay after launch.

QA, training, go-live. Analytics set up. Thirty days of post-launch fixes included. After that, optional monthly care plans so the site keeps shipping instead of breaking quietly in a corner.

What we ship

  • Production deploy
  • Analytics + Search Console
  • Team training session
  • 30 days of fixes included

What you approve

  • Launch sign-off
  • Care plan choice (or none)
  • Quarterly check-in cadence
  • Growth roadmap
