Frequently Asked Questions

With the amount of details involved in a project for your home, we have found that projects that have a designer make the construction process easier as all of the smaller details have been reviewed and considered early on. This can save time on the project as well as your personal time.

This depends on a few variables that include the scope of work, if plans involved, and if city inspections are involved.Typically projects that have plans tend to move more smoothly and are completed at a quicker pace.

While a conversation is usually had, we would ask for a formal email to approve the change in the scope of work and the cost associated with this change.

Before the project begins, our project manager will be out to review what will be kept and what would be removed and disposed of. At this time we will confirm the availability of finish materials so we can schedule a start date. We would want to make sure we have a firm delivery date of larger items such as cabinets, this way when we start we can move through the project efficiently.

While you are welcome to be home during the project we find that living and working in a construction zone proves to be challenging.

Yes we do have and a list can be provided to you should we work together. These are vendors that typically give contractors discounts from anywhere between 10 – 25% which we pass on to you.
