How we work
After an initial consultation where you’ll decide if our firm and how we work is a good fit, the next step to get your project rolling is entering into a Professional Services Agreement/Design Retainer with us.
The Professional Services Agreement/Design Retainer (PSA) consists of several parts. It includes a description of your project, the proposed or estimated budget cost range, and three specific phases of work that will be accomplished.
- The first phase is the Schematic Design Development Documents. These consist of the design drawings and other documents that illustrate the scale, arrangement, and relationship of the project components. Your project is custom-designed and presented to you in a 3D photo-rendered computer-aided design format (CAD), making the designs not only exciting to see for the first time but extremely easy to visualize and understand.
- Next is the Budget Cost Analysis. This step determines the actual funds required to complete the project based on the Design Development Documents. This process includes an on-site visit with all of our mechanical and trade partners who will be engaged on the project. This helps to eliminate surprises and provides the basis for the actual project budget cost and the specifications necessary for the last element of the PSA.
- The third phase is the Construction Development Documents. These documents consist of the drawings and specifications outlined in detail, the requirements for the construction of the project, the allowance amounts included for your product selections, terms and conditions, and other required details that comprise your proposal for the project.
There is a fee for the Professional Services Agreement/Design Retainer. It is determined by the scope of the project, its complexity, and the amount of time required to put it all together.
With your acceptance of the proposal, your project will be placed into the production schedule. We will let you know when we can expect to start and when you can anticipate the completion of your project (a handy bit of information).
In our experience, communication and an open dialog throughout your project are as important as the results of our craftsmanship. You can depend on us to do our part, which is one of the reasons so many of our clients are delighted to have us as their remodeler for life.
