Why we believe detailed project planning is vital to the success of any remodel

A remodel is all about fresh starts, making it the perfect time to start planning a remodel that will transform your home!

Whether you’ve been dreaming of a more functional kitchen, a luxurious bathroom, or a home layout that better fits your lifestyle, getting started now can make all the difference in ensuring a smooth, stress-free project.

Why start planning now instead of waiting?

1. More Time for Thoughtful Design


Rushing into a remodel without a well-developed plan can lead to costly mistakes and last-minute decisions you might regret. The design and planning phase is where we refine your vision, explore layout options, and finalize a detailed scope of work. Taking the time to get every detail right means fewer changes and surprises once construction begins.

2. Make All Selections in Advance

From cabinets and countertops to fixtures and flooring, choosing your materials ahead of time is crucial for keeping your project on schedule. Many materials have lead times, and certain selections may be limited due to availability. By selecting everything in advance, you avoid delays and help ensure your remodel progresses smoothly.

3. Stay Within Budget

Making selections in advance also helps your project stay in-budget! Material prices and labor costs can fluctuate. Early planning allows you to lock in pricing, make informed decisions, and avoid unexpected budget increases.

Project Planning Service

Here's an outline of the key deliverables included in our Project Planning Service:

Permit-Ready 2D and 3D Renderings: Detailed and accurate 2D and 3D renderings of the proposed design, showcasing the layout, dimensions, and visual appearance of the remodeled space. These renderings serve as valuable tools for visualizing the final outcome and are essential for obtaining permits and approvals.

Assistance with Material Selections: Technical guidance, vendor references, and recommendations for selecting materials, finishes, fixtures, and other elements for your project. While you ultimately make the final decisions, our team provides advice to ensure that choices align with your vision, budget, and aesthetic preferences. Additionally, for those seeking a higher level of assistance, we often collaborate with an interior design company for an additional cost.

Detailed Budgets Based on Finish Selections: A comprehensive breakdown of the project budget, including costs associated with materials, labor, permits, and any other relevant expenses. The budget is tailored to reflect your chosen finishes and specifications, providing clarity and transparency throughout the project.

Specific Timeline: A detailed timeline outlining the various stages of the remodeling process, from design development to construction completion. The timeline includes key milestones and deadlines, allowing you to track progress and stay informed about the project's schedule.

Investment: We have found that this service pays for itself by reducing expensive change orders, increasing budget accuracy, and reducing project timelines. Typically, our project planning service ranges between $500 to $3,000 depending on the size of the project.

Revisions: You have the opportunity to request up to two rounds of revisions to the initial design concepts based on your feedback and preferences. Our team accommodates up to two rounds of revisions within the agreed-upon fee, ensuring that the final design meets your expectations.

No Obligation: This is the most affordable way to develop plans for your project and get the most consistent cost comparison from multiple contractors. At the end of this process you are free to move forward with us to the construction phase or choose another contractor using the plans and budget for comparison. 

If you choose to proceed with us, our team offers construction services to oversee the implementation of the plan. This may include coordinating with sub-contractors, managing timelines and budgets, and ensuring quality control throughout the construction phase.

Overall, the deliverables provided as part of our project planning service are designed to empower clients with the information and resources they need to embark on their remodeling project with confidence. From detailed renderings to comprehensive budgets and timelines, our team ensures that every aspect of the design process is carefully planned and executed to achieve the desired outcome.
