Renovation
The how-it-works basics.
How long does a typical renovation take?
It depends on scope. A kitchen remodel typically runs 8-14 weeks from demo. A primary bath: 6-10 weeks. A whole-home first-floor renovation: 16-24 weeks. We commit to a written timeline before we start and protect it like a contract.
What does a renovation cost?
Most of our projects fall between $50K and $300K. Kitchen remodels typically start around $75K. Primary bath renovations start around $40K. Whole-home renovations and additions start around $150K. We give every client a detailed line-item estimate before any deposit.
Do you do small projects?
We do, when they're a fit. Our minimum project size is around $30K, typically a single bathroom, a small kitchen update, or a custom built-in. For projects under $30K, we usually recommend a great handyman or specialty contractor instead.
How is your team different from a general contractor?
We're a design-build firm, meaning design, sourcing, project management, and construction are all in-house. You work with one team from the first conversation to the final walkthrough. With a typical GC, you'd be juggling a designer, a contractor, and a project manager, three points of contact, three responsibility lines.
Interior design
Our new design packages.
Can I buy interior design without doing a renovation?
Yes. Our design packages are standalone deliverables, you can hire your own contractor, shop the list yourself, or just enjoy a designed room without breaking any walls.
What if I want to do design with you AND renovation?
We credit the full design package fee against your renovation. So a $1,999 Full Room design becomes effectively free if you book the renovation through us.
Do you charge by the hour?
No. Every package has a fixed price for a fixed scope. The Whole-Home Design package is custom-quoted but priced at a flat fee, not hourly.
Process & logistics
Working with us, day-to-day.
Will I have to move out during construction?
Almost never. The exception is a whole-first-floor renovation where the kitchen and primary living areas are out of commission simultaneously. Even then, most clients stay in the home. We set up a temporary kitchen and protect the work zones daily.
How do I know what's happening during my project?
Weekly written updates with photos. A phone call when anything material changes. A shared project tracker if you want one. The minimum communication standard we hold ourselves to is: you should never have to call us first.
What happens after the project is done?
Final walkthrough, punch list resolved within 14 days, and a one-year check-in we schedule before we leave. We're a phone call away long after that.
