The Process

From Vision to Reality

Embarking on a renovation is an exciting journey. Our process is designed to guide you seamlessly from the initial vision to the finished space. With careful planning, expert craftsmanship, and clear communication, we ensure that every step brings you closer to a home you’ll love. From laying a strong foundation to putting on the finishing touches, we’re with you every step of the way.

Our Process

Step 1: Planning

Every great renovation starts with a plan. Our designer will collaborate with you to transform your ideas and dreams into a cohesive vision. Together, we’ll discuss your needs, preferences, and budget to create a tailored working plan that aligns with your goals.

Step 2: Final Drawings and Specifications

Once the initial plan is refined, we’ll develop detailed construction drawings and a comprehensive specification list for your review and approval. These final documents serve as the blueprint for your project.

Step 3: Preparation

Before construction begins, we finalize all the details. This includes confirming pricing, creating schedules, making material selections, and securing necessary construction permits to ensure a smooth process.

Step 4: Construction

Our skilled team of site managers and craftsmen will bring your vision to life with precision and professionalism. The construction process often starts slowly as groundwork is laid, gains momentum during the core building phase, and then tapers off as we approach completion.

Step 5: Punch List & Completion

As we near the finish line, we’ll create a punch list to address any final details, ensuring your project meets our high standards. Upon completion, you’ll receive a warranty certificate and all relevant documentation.

Step 6: Warranty Follow-Up Visits

We stand by our work. Six months after project completion—following two seasonal weather changes—we’ll schedule a site visit to review the finished work and address any issues, such as drywall seams or nail pops, ensuring your renovation remains in excellent condition. Additionally, we’ll return at the one-year mark to perform another thorough review and make any necessary adjustments.
