Whether it's one room or your entire home, we handle projects of all sizes with the same dedication to quality and attention to detail.

We primarily specialize in interior renovations where we can truly showcase our craftsmanship and attention to detail. However, we do handle certain exterior work that's connected to interior projects, such as windows, doors, and structural modifications. If you have specific exterior needs, contact us and we can discuss whether it's something we handle directly or if we can recommend trusted partners in our network.

Our timeline depends on our current project schedule and the scope of your renovation. After your initial consultation and estimate approval, we typically can start within 2-4 weeks. For urgent projects, we may be able to expedite this timeline. During peak seasons (spring and summer), lead times may be slightly longer. We'll provide you with a specific start date during your free consultation and keep you updated throughout the process.

Project timelines vary based on scope and complexity:

• Bathroom renovation: 3-6 weeks
• Kitchen remodel: 4-10 weeks
• Whole house renovation: 12-20 weeks
• Single room updates: 2-4 weeks
• Custom projects: Varies based on complexity

These are general estimates. We'll provide a specific timeline for your project during the estimate phase. We pride ourselves on meeting deadlines and will keep you informed of progress throughout the project.

Our streamlined process ensures your renovation goes smoothly:

1. Initial Consultation: We meet to discuss your vision, needs, and budget
2. Site Assessment: We evaluate the space and take measurements
3. Design & Planning: We develop a plan and select materials with your input
4. Detailed Estimate: You receive a transparent breakdown of all costs
5. Contract & Scheduling: Once approved, we schedule your project start date
6. Construction: We execute the work with regular updates and communication
7. Final Walkthrough: We review the completed project together to ensure your satisfaction
8. Follow-up: We check in after completion to address any questions or concerns

It depends on the scope of your project. For single-room renovations like kitchens or bathrooms, most clients stay in their homes. We'll set up temporary solutions (like a makeshift kitchen) to minimize disruption. For whole house renovations or major structural work, some temporary relocation might be necessary for your comfort and safety. We'll discuss the best approach for your specific project during the consultation and work to minimize disruption to your daily life as much as possible.

Our typical work hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. For projects where clients are working from home or have specific scheduling needs, we can often adjust our schedule to minimize disruption. We're also available for weekend work on certain projects if needed. We respect your space and work with your schedule whenever possible.

We handle all necessary permits and inspections as part of our service. This includes pulling permits, scheduling required inspections, and ensuring all work meets local building codes and regulations. Permit costs are included in your estimate, and we'll manage all the paperwork and coordination with local authorities. You don't need to worry about the bureaucratic side of things – we've got it covered.

Communication is key to a successful project. We provide regular updates through your preferred method – phone calls, text messages, email, or in-person check-ins. You'll always know what's happening, what's next, and if there are any changes or issues that need your attention. We're also available to answer questions throughout the project. You're never left wondering what's going on with your renovation.

Your satisfaction is our top priority. If you have concerns at any point during the project, please bring them to our attention immediately. We want to address issues promptly while we're on-site, not after the project is complete. We'll work with you to find solutions and make adjustments as needed. Our goal is for you to be thrilled with the final result, and we'll do what it takes to get there.

Yes, changes can be made, though it's best to finalize as much as possible before we start. If you want to make changes mid-project, we'll discuss the impact on timeline and budget before proceeding. Some changes are easy to accommodate, while others might require adjustments to the schedule or cost. We're flexible and will work with you, but we also want to be transparent about how changes affect the overall project.

Absolutely! We maintain a clean and organized work site throughout the project. At the end of each day, we clean up the work area, and we do a thorough deep cleaning when the project is complete. Construction can be messy, but we minimize dust and debris as much as possible and protect areas of your home that aren't being renovated. You'll receive your completed space clean and ready to enjoy.

Our team consists of experienced, skilled professionals who take pride in their work. For specialized tasks (electrical, plumbing, HVAC), we work with licensed subcontractors who we've partnered with for years and trust completely. Everyone who works on your project is vetted, professional, and respectful of your home. We'll introduce you to key team members at the start of the project so you know who to expect.

While we take every precaution to protect your property, accidents can happen. We carry comprehensive insurance to cover any damage that might occur during construction. If something is damaged, we'll take responsibility for repairing or replacing it. We'll also let you know immediately if any issues arise rather than trying to hide problems. Transparency and accountability are core values of our business.
