Q&A

Home Remodeler

When designing my kitchen or bathroom, how do you know what my home should look like?

It all begins with getting to know you. During our initial consultation, we ask thoughtful and purposeful questions to understand what’s motivating your desires to update or upgrade your space. We carefully evaluate your home’s current style and architectural details to ensure our design creates a seamless and cohesive transition between existing and new elements. Our goal is not only to improve your space’s function and aesthetic, but to ensure it feels like a natural extension of your home. We follow a detailed and collaborative design process to ensure the style we recommend reflects your personality and lifestyle and enhances the integrity of your home’s original character.

Should I get three bids on my remodel?

An accurate and meaningful bid for a remodeling project, especially one that involves custom design, requires extensive information about the existing conditions of your home, your goals, and the full scope of work, including material selections and finishes to establish a realistic project cost.

With that in mind, look for three well-established companies whose style, values, and approach resonate with you and schedule an in-home consultation with each. During this initial meeting, they should assess your space and share their design-build process. Ask for a budget range based on similar projects they’ve completed. Request references for projects currently in production so you can hear firsthand what their clients are experiencing. Remember, it’s not just about the lowest bid. It’s about finding a trusted professional who will guide you through the process and deliver lasting value and craftsmanship.

How will I know when I’ve found the right company?

The right company will listen, understand your vision, and have a proven process to guide you every step of the way. A successful renovation experience comes down to five essential elements:

  • Trusted professionals who genuinely care about you, your home, and your goals, and treat you with integrity and respect.
  • An experienced design team with the creativity and tools to guide you from the first concept to final completion.
  • A fully stocked, curated showroom with premium products from industry-leading brands.
  • In-house, skilled field team of craftsmen and trade professionals who are detail-oriented, quality-driven, and fully dedicated to executing your project with excellence.
  • A proven, well-defined process that makes your renovation run smoothly, transparent, and worry-free.

Would you recommend following a trend when designing a home?

Trends come and go. Your personal style is timeless. Your home should consist of spaces that feel authentic, enduring, and uniquely yours. Rather than chasing fleeting trends, take the time to discover the colors, textures, materials, and finishes that truly speak to you. If there’s a current trend that resonates, we can explore how to thoughtfully incorporate select elements in a way that enhances your home without overwhelming it. Trends should never dictate your design but complement it. Our goal is to create a cohesive environment that flows beautifully with your home’s existing architecture while standing the test of time.
