To schedule a consultation to discuss your project, call us now or connect with our team online.
How do you help clients stay within budget?
From the first consultation, we will discuss your budget and goals. As we progress with the details of your project in order to draw up your contract, we will be transparent about each element that will factor into your remodeling cost. We have strong, long-term relationships with vendors to ensure the best prices, and we are meticulous, detail-oriented project managers. We offer frequent updates throughout the project, so you always know whether a change or delay will affect the total cost. You can then make informed decisions at every step, ensuring that you stay within your budget.
What is your home remodeling process?
Our remodeling process begins with an initial consultation. Once we get all of the details we need, we will draw up design plans and schedule another meeting to go through the details. We’ll then present a budget proposal. Should you accept, we’ll draw up your final designs as well as a detailed construction contract, schedule, and project plan. Then we’ll move on to securing permits and preparing the construction site. When we’re ready to build, our experienced construction team and project managers will be on-site the entire way, answering questions and making sure you’re informed. When the project is complete, we’ll schedule all necessary inspections and do a final walkthrough with you.
Can you include smart home features?
Yes, we love integrating smart home features into a home renovation or remodel. During your initial consultation, we’ll discuss your needs and explore how different features can make your home safer, more functional and accessible, and more energy-efficient.
Do you assist with permits and approvals?
Yes, after we have finalized the design and plan for your project, we will secure permits and inspections. We work with all relevant inspectors and agencies to ensure everything is to code.
How far in advance should I book a project?
We recommend that you book a standard remodeling project at least four to eight months in advance. For complex or large-scale projects like a whole home remodeling project or historic renovation, we suggest booking a year in advance.
