Typically, the fall is the perfect time for homeowners to begin planning their home remodeling projects. With the excitement of summer events behind them, they have a bit more time to consider the goals they have for their home. 

One of the biggest questions they have for us is, "When can we start?"

After 52 years of providing award-winning remodeling projects and client experiences, we have a pretty solid idea of what our clients should expect from working with us. Let's walk through a few of the more popular remodeling project types, their typical timelines, and how they develop along throughout our process!

Bathroom Remodel:

Initial Phone Call or Office Visit

Discuss your goals and general project scope with our team.

Second Conversation

First Appointment with a Remodeling Consultant

A Remodeling Consultant from our team will meet with you at your home to gain a deeper understanding of what the most important aspects of the project are to you and discuss the details needed to achieve those goals: 2-3 weeks after

Scope and Budget

With the information we gained from seeing your home and discussing the viability of various options, we will develop a more refined scope of work and a realistic budget range you should expect. 1 week after

Project Development

Once we agree that we are a good fit for each other for your project, we enter into a formal agreement to begin the design phase of the process. This is called our Project Development Agreement.

During this PDA, we create detailed designs and work with you to identify specific selections for the project: 3 - 5 weeks after

We then work through all the project details and obtain costs from trade partners and suppliers: 1 - 2 weeks

Finalize Contract

With all the details completed, we create a comprehensive contract to include project specifications, as well as, the terms and conditions associated with our agreement. Once the contract is signed, we move into our production phase: 1 week

Timeline from First Call: 2 - 3 months

This process is essentially the same with every project we complete. The difference is in the amount of time those steps take as the complexity and size of the projects grow.

Kitchen Remodel:

Scope and Budget

As you can imagine, there are typically more decisions that need to be understood when it comes to a kitchen renovation. To ensure we capture everything completely, we spend almost twice as long developing a kitchen project than it takes developing a bathroom project. 2 weeks after

Project Development

With the increase in size, scope and details you can expect this phase to take a little bit longer, as well. 4 - 6 weeks after

Timeline from First Call: 3 - 4 months

Lower-Level/ Interior Remodel:

Scope and Budget

With the typical lower-level or interior remodel, there are many details to consider when defining the scope. Typically these projects require defining the scope of work in more than one room. 2 weeks after

Project Development

With the increase in size, scope and details you can expect this phase to take a little bit longer, as well. The total scope of the interior work will determine the length of the project development phase. 3 - 8 weeks after

Clients interested in adding to their home, start with imagining how they will use the additional space and comfort. We work to define a realistic budget number by calculating the necessary square footage to achieve the goals our clients have for the expanded space. 3 weeks after

Project Development

Once we determine the scope of the addition and a budget range to match, we work with our clients to take a deeper dive into the design. This level of detail takes even longer to ensure we meet all our clients' goals, and effectively use every square foot. 6 - 16+ weeks after

Whole Home Remodels:

Scope and Budget

Whole home remodeling projects require both the client and remodeling consultant to take a wide-angle look at the entire project. Deciding what is important and how we will work together to accomplish all the client's goals, is how we discover the scope of work. Our team takes the baseline information about the scope and finalizes the appropriate budget range for the project. 3 weeks after

Once we determine the scope and a budget range to match, we spend several months to ensure we meet those goals while developing designs that fit their tastes and styles. We take a holistic approach to create a design that flows throughout the home. 8 - 20+ weeks after
