Complete Customization

Customer Journey with the Weaver Family in Phoenix, Arizona

“We went with Worldwide because they could work with the customizations we wanted that other companies could not accommodate.”

Pre-Delivery Steps

Excavating + Grade Work

A freshly cleared and smooth dirt lot beside a concrete driveway under a clear blue sky awaits the Weaver Family. In the background, there are desert trees, electric poles, and distant mountains, with a couple of palm trees standing tall, offering complete customization potential.

Step 1

Excavation and ‘grading’ the area to ensure the building pad will be precisely the same grade from corner to corner.

Framing + Rebar + Wire Mesh

A construction site with a flat grid of rebar at ground level, ready for concrete pouring. The area, tailored for complete customization, is surrounded by dirt, and part of a building is visible on the left. Sparse trees and bushes are in the background under a clear sky.

Step 2

Framework, gravel and rebar plus wire mesh can be spread over the area to provide a basic foundation before concrete is poured. 

Concrete Slab Foundation

A freshly poured concrete foundation, reflecting the Weaver Family's vision of complete customization, sits on a clear day surrounded by desert vegetation. Utility poles line the background, where hills and a few palm trees stand peacefully under a bright blue sky.

Step 3

Concrete to be poured at least 4 to 6 inches deep, depending on the level of support needed inside the structure.

The Outer Shell

“Our building is 35’ x 50’ with the wall height at 16’ and the top of the building at 22 feet with a 14’ x 20’ garage roll up door and a 9′ x 8′ roll up door in the back.”

~Matt

Exterior Customization

“We wanted the garage to match the house so the exterior would be stucco with a tile roof, four windows 2’x3’ on each side and a walk-thru door on the same side as the smaller roll up door.”

“The interior walls were finished with wood paneling painted bright white and the celling is a reclaimed/salvage corrugated metal 3’ x 2′ panels. All the walls and celling were insulated and the steel columns were painted gray.” ~Matt
