PROJECT PLANNING PROCESS
Plan with Confidence. Build with Clarity.
We know that the hardest part of any construction project isn’t always the build—it’s everything that comes before it. Whether you’re a homeowner, a property manager, or navigating an insurance claim, the unknowns can feel overwhelming.
These checklists are here to help. We’ve broken down what you need to know, what to expect, and how Landmark will walk you through the project planning process step by step.
