DESIGN/BUILD GUIDE

What to expect:

Our Visit To Your Home - On the confirmed meeting date a representative
will come to your home and:

  • Collect this completed Design/Build Guide.
  • Review your responses to the "Wish List" and answer any questions you may have.
  • Review the existing structure as required by the scope of the project.
  • Collect any additional pertinent documents such as existing blue prints, plot
    plans, surveys, neighborhood covenants or other items that might have
    an impact on the project.
  • Determine if design services are needed.
  • At the conclusion of our visit we will set a follow-up appointment to be
    conducted at our office or your home in approximately ten (10) working
    days with a salesman and/or designer.

If designer is required, design representative will come to your home and:

  • Review your responses to the "Wish List" and answer any questions you may have.
  • Measure the existing structure as required by the scope of the project.
  • Collect any information you may have which will help the designer to design an
    addition to your specifications and preferences.  This information can be in 
    the form of magazines, photographs, or your own drawings.

    Upon returning to our office we will create a set of plans depicting existing conditions
    and create one or more possible design solutions addressing the goals you have 
    established.   At your follow up appointment we will:

 

  • Present and guide you through our initial design proposals.
  • Record your likes and dislikes with those designs.
  • Discuss possible revisions and combinations of design elements.
  • Provide elevations, perspectives, and other 3D views of your design
    if needed.

    Note:  It is very important for you to openly share your likes, dislikes,
    concerns and questions with us during these design discussions.  
    Hearing what you do not like is often as important as what you do like
    in helping us focus on your individual styles.  Do not be shy!!!

    

Budget Considerations:

We ask that you consider a budget range for your remodeling goals. Please be aware that
we are developing a proposal that is unique to your particular needs. We will not
know the exact cost of your project until we carefully analyze the final plans and
your chosen specifications. However, we must keep your budget range in mind
when preparing the initial proposal.

Please Check One:

___under $15,000 ___$75,000-100,00

___$15,000-25,000 ___$100,000-150,000

___$25,000-50,000 ___over $150,000

___$50,000-75,000 ___Budget based on design

 

Remodeling Wish List:

A chart is provided to help you communicate with and guide our design staff toward
a solution to your unique design needs and to help your salesman make a more accurate
quote. This chart should also help you sort through and prioritize your thoughts and
goals for the proposed project. The end result of our design process and personal goal
of our design staff is to create a design that satisfies your individual goals for function,
aesthetics, and budget. Thank you for your careful attention in completing this list.

 

What’s Next?

One of our salesmen will be contacting you in the next few days to set up an appointment
to discuss your remodeling project. We look forward to meeting and working with you!!!!
