Our Design-Build Process
From Vision to Reality
1
Initial Contact
- You reach out by phone, website, or email.
- A team member promptly responds to learn about your needs, goals, and initial vision.
- If we’re a good fit, we schedule a complimentary phone or in‐home consultation.

First Meeting
- We offer a free in‐home visit to discuss likes, dislikes, goals, and timeline.
- We’ll talk about your investment comfort zone and ballpark pricing (often based on square footage).
- We introduce the Comprehensive Project Evaluation process and outline what to expect next.

Comprehensive Project Evaluation
- We measure your space, document existing conditions, and gather more detailed design preferences.
- A design interview helps us capture your style, color preferences, and initial layout ideas.
- We develop a preliminary scope of work and budget range.
- You’ll then review a concept design, scope of work, and budget proposal so we can refine direction.

Detailed Design Phase
- We bring your vision to life using 2D and/or 3D drawings based on your feedback.
- Our in‐house designer works with you to select materials, finishes, and layout options.
- We update the budget proposal to reflect specific selections and a more detailed scope.
- By the end of this phase, you’ll have finalized product choices and a well‐defined design plan.

Construction Agreement
- We collect final quotations from trade partners and confirm pricing on selected materials.

- Once everything is approved, we sign the Construction Agreement, which covers all aspects of the remodel—including start/finish dates.
