During this meeting, you get to share your ideas. We encourage you to share pictures. We discuss the layout of the space, taking into account the mechanical aspects like plumbing and electricity. We then develop your ideas into a plan.
During the consultation, we answer your initial questions about the remodeling process. We also discuss your budget range and the possible completion date. The consultation can be requested by appointment.
Our designer will personally make a visit to your home to evaluate and analyze your current space. They will take measurements, photograph your space, and draft initial drawing. We do require a design retainer fee, which will be applied to your remodeling contract. This will help us move onto the actual construction process in a timely manner.
After the initial drawing, we refine the details of the design. We select materials and products based on your goals and specify any charges. A contract, which is drafted in accordance with the refined design, must be signed before finalizing the floor plan and design specifications. The contract will consist of comprehensive pricing for materials and remodeling services.
We then produce a completed design. If any changes are made during the remodeling process, these are considered changes to the scope of work and we will always inform you first, discuss cost implications, and ask your approval before moving on further. We are an official member of National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA), and we are licensed and insured.
Products and materials generally take between 2-8 weeks to arrive depending on the items selected. When the construction begins, a project manager will direct and supervise the remodeling process to minimize schedule delays. We also personally coordinate work with all trades involved in the project to make sure the construction is going smoothly.
When the construction is finished, we will follow up to make sure all parts of the project are complete. We provide quality craftsmanship and workmanship in all projects. Our built-in furniture, such as cabinets, has a one to five year warranty depending upon product selection.
