Building With Purpose
Our Five Step Process
Remodeling projects require a professional, organized, and fine-tuned approach. So we've scrupulously thought through each step to ensure our work is performed with excellence.
Step 1: Ballpark Estimate
Your remodeling project begins with a free, in-home estimate and consultation with Brad and Ross. This meeting typically takes about a half hour and the purpose is to confirm the major objectives of your project and determine a range of cost. Within a week or two of the meeting we’ll email you a ballpark estimate.
Step 2: Proposal
If the ballpark estimate fits within your budget, we’ll schedule a second meeting to present a proposal. During this meeting, we also share your allowance list, *production timeline and payment schedule, and a 3D rendering of your future remodel. The proposal may take several weeks to complete depending on the size and scope of your project. As soon as the proposal is signed, we can get started on the pre-production tasks.
Step 3: Pre-Production
Pre-production is the period between the signed proposal and demolition and can be seen as the administrative portion of your project. During this time, we’ll pull necessary permits, finalize design decisions, begin scheduling, and start procuring materials that have a long lead time such as cabinetry, countertops and flooring. The comprehensive allowance list is categorized according to priority to ensure we’re focusing on the most critical items first. That way, your project will move along as efficiently as possible during production.
Step 4: Production
With the bulk of the administrative work complete, we can begin demolition and continue to execute our production plan. Because we only take on a limited number of projects at a time, you can be assured that once we start, we’ll continue to work with focus and efficiency until completion. Additionally, we’re well aware that remodeling can cause an inconvenience in your day to day routine. For that reason, we make it a policy to communicate our schedule and any pertinent updates on a daily basis.
Step 5: Walkthough & Warranty
With your project finished, we’ll meet you one last time in your newly remodeled space for a walkthrough and to review the warranty. We want to make sure your vision has come to life before we shake hands and thank you for hiring us.
*Production Timeline and Payment Schedule
Depending on the size of your project, the production timeline is divided into 3-5 phases. After each phase is complete, a payment will be due. The final phase of the production timeline is the walkthrough and warranty which is also when we will collect our final payment. We find that aligning the production timeline with the payment schedule helps foster trust. We believe trust is the most important ingredient for a good working relationship between company and client. Feel free to contact us if you wish to see an example of a production timeline and payment schedule.
Let us introduce ourselves.

Nick Slot2024-01-31Wonderful experience - from the initial consult to the proposal and to the actual work. Brad and Ross were great listeners and did an exceptional job communicating throughout the entire process. Our kitchen looks amazing!
Lukas Aaron2024-01-10Nothing but positive things to say. Brad and Ross were communicative, thoughtful, careful, and thorough throughout the entire process of our bathroom remodel. Both they and their subcontractors exhibited professionalism and delivered quality work. Our house is over 100 years old - they helped us remodel in a historically-conscious way, and successfully cleared all of the hurdles that come with old home renovations. We are so happy with the results. Highly recommend!
Kenton Hancock2024-01-02Very happy with the entire process. They helped us outline the most important parts of the project, plan a timeline, and the final result is incredible and exactly what we wanted. Despite a few unexpected challenges they were able to be flexible and still get the project done in the original timeline. 100% would use again.
Patricia Woodwyk2023-11-08This company call's to keep you up dated and let's you know who will come and then Brad or Ross themselves come to check things out and make sure it's done correctly. Brad and Ross explain and take the time to talk and show us what they're doing and will come back to review the job to make sure the job is done or call and ask you if things are done right. Very trustworthy company. We are having them do more in the spring because we are happy with them.
Logan Walters2023-10-22Very responsive and construction was very quick and neat. Will definitely be using them again thank you
