A Design Build Process Focused on Your Vision

Are you ready to make some changes in your home design but aren’t sure where to start?

We understand that most building and remodeling projects are a major investment for our clients, and they can be a nerve-wracking foray into the unknown. You may be worried that someone will take advantage of you. You may have heard some frightening first-hand accounts of remodeling nightmares. We’ve worked with many clients who say, “I sure wish we had hired you last time.”

Visit our website to see our stunning before/after transformations like this one: 

Carl and Susan had a white melamine, standard-issue, builder kitchen, and it opened directly into their beautifully furnished living and dining areas. The other rooms feature lovely custom moldings and rich, warm wall colors reminiscent of Tuscany. It was time to bring the kitchen into harmony with the rest.

The design hinges on fine details. Color similarity between the maple island cabinets and the white oak flooring was crucial to the harmony of the room. We painted the “thin brick” splash to match the cabinets, rather than upstage them. The clients trusted us with touches such as the offset hanging lights over the island, and the Renaissance-feel cabinet hardware.

Other companies go in with a low price and then add extra costs along the way. As a result, you may go over budget. We work hard to present a realistic cost up front and do work at the beginning to select products and finishes to minimize variances in your final cost.

The Importance of Design

From the moment we step inside your home, our work is about YOU! First of all, we’ll be wearing masks and shoe coverings. Then we’ll spend some time getting to know you and getting your thoughts for your remodeled space. We’ll explore your design possibilities and gather ideas for flooring, hardware, counter tops and more. 

Once you’ve signed a design agreement, we begin our work getting measurements and photos of your site. We’ll talk about space planning and products so we can present a preliminary 3D design and rough estimate. The 3D design helps you visualize what your new kitchen, bathroom, or basement will look like once it is completed. That allows us to make any necessary modifications and create a final design based on your final selections and feedback. We believe there should be no surprises in your remodeling experience (except good ones). A detailed, comprehensive design also allows for accurate product ordering, an easy permit process, and floor plans that can be expertly built by our craftsmen.  

The Design Must Meet your Budget and Timeline

A great design is only useful if it meets your budget and timeline. You’ve probably heard horror stories about contractors that continually add unexpected costs pushing you over your budget. Estimating is a key part of the Design phase. As a result of careful design documentation, our estimates are detailed and specific, allowing you to rely on us to bring the project to completion for that price. In addition, the team member who writes your estimate will also be your project manager, providing consistency through each phase.

How our 3-D Process Brings Your Design to Life

Remodeling your home?

Wouldn’t it be great if you could see your remodel before the work is actually completed?

We know how exciting – and overwhelming – it is to start a new home improvement project! To make sure you’re happy with the final product, we show it to you at the beginning. We use 3-D drawings to show you our design ideas, get your feedback, and ensure we’ve realized your vision before moving to construction.

We love the classics, but are constantly seeking new and exciting materials. When you make a design decision, we want you to feel sure you’ve explored enough. So often we hear, “Oh, I would NEVER have thought of that! I love it”! Those are some of the most satisfying moments in the process. Seeing finish samples and products in person helps ensure your space will come together as expected.

If waiving the design fees for our services can help in that regard or let us say "thanks," we're honored to do so."
