Request a homeowner consultation
Start with your construction situation.
Homeowner construction consultation
Use this page if you are dealing with ASR pool concerns, contractor trouble, an expired permit, draw/payment questions, owner-builder planning, a defect, or a repair/rebuild decision.
Fastest urgent path
If payment, demolition, active damage, or a deadline is involved, submit the form and then call Nathan directly.
Privacy note: homeowner consultation details, photos, documents, and private project facts stay in the homeowner consulting lane. They are not sold, repackaged, or used for any separate data product or contractor-facing service.
What to include for a homeowner consultation.
- Your name, phone, email, project address or city, and county.
- The situation: ASR pool damage, contractor trouble, expired permit, draw/payment review, owner-builder support, defect/repair question, or DIY planning.
- Project stage, urgency, and whether you have photos, contracts, bids, permits, reports, insurance letters, or contractor messages.
- Do not upload or send sensitive files with the first form. After Nathan reviews the request, he can tell you which photos, contracts, reports, permits, messages, or payment records would be useful to share next.
What happens next.
1. Nathan reviews the request
BuildAdvocate looks at the project stage, urgency, decision point, and whether photos, contracts, reports, permits, payment records, or messages may be needed after the first review.
2. You get a focused follow-up
The follow-up clarifies what is known, what is missing, what deadline or payment risk matters most, and whether the next step should be a call, document review, site visit, or referral.
3. The engagement is defined
Before deeper work starts, you should understand the consulting scope, expected deliverable, fee path, documents to share, and which responsibilities remain with trades, engineers, inspectors, labs, attorneys, or other qualified professionals.
