How does it start? 

  • You get to know us a little 
  • We get to know you a little 
  • Together we  determine what you are trying to achieve for your home 
  • We discuss budget if applicable 
  • we enter a design agreement based on mutual confidence*

What happens next?

We perform an existing condition measurement and systems evaluation proper design requires a thorough understanding of site conditions as it applies to your project we will:

  • inspect your electrical service
  • inspect your gas lines for sizing purposes
  • order an “all-spot”
  • confirm the specifics of the structure of your existing home
  • determine water pressure and line size from the meter
  • and address any other project specific items that are needed

  

And then? 

Design layout including style and ergonomic options are explored

Material selections begin with red carpet treatment at our various supplier's showrooms (we don't restrict your creativity by limiting your options). Implementation issues and methods are weighed and your needs and wants are mapped out so that actual project costs and option points can be calculated.

 

The Excitement of the Second Site Visit......

 When we have achieved the optimal design and are moving toward the fixed budget it is usually beneficial to have some of our Select Trade Associates visit the site of the proposed project to cross check for any conditions that could impact their firm fixed pricing.

Occasionally we may have  as many as a dozen specialists in their individual fields visit your home with us on that busy day!
