About our process
The first step to a beautiful home makeover is a site visit so we can learn about the nature and scope of the project.
After we have as much information as we need we draft construction drawings and models, if needed, and an itemized project budget.
Once we have an approved budget for a particular project or phase we apply for appropriate building permits.
Next a project timeline is drawn up which shows when each part of the project will begin and be completed.
At the same time a payment schedule is created which shows how payments correspond to completion of each phase of a project.
Sometimes a subcontractor or vendor requires a deposit to guarantee availability at a given time. This type of payment is also indicated in the payment schedule.
Occasionally, we have clients that choose to purchase specific building elements or fixtures outside of a contract. These can be shown in a separate column of the payment schedule.
From this point the project simply follows the sequence outlined in the timeline.
We believe clarity and transparency about each party’s expectations substantially reduces the stress of an investment in your home.
