Our Five Step Process

Getting ready for Your Initial Call

Let’s get the ideas flowing during our initial phone consultation.

Here are a few simple ways to prepare for your home improvement project in Bolingbrook.

Gather Inspiration

Google remains one of the best all-around sources for visual inspiration, pulling ideas from across the web—including today’s most popular design platforms.

Save photos or links of spaces that resonate with you. Understanding what you love—and just as importantly, what you don’t—helps us guide the design with intention from the very beginning.

Set a Starting Budget

Use reputable tools like the Cost vs. Value Report to get a rough idea of remodeling costs. It doesn’t have to be exact—just figure a starting range you’re comfortable with, and together we can build from there.

Vet Your Contractors

Choosing the right team is everything. Read reviews on Google and BBB, check credentials, and don’t be afraid to ask the hard questions. We encourage it—and we’ll do the same to make sure we’re the right fit for your project.

Our Five step Process

Step

1

Initial Consultation Call

Every great home transformation begins with a good conversation. In this initial call, we’ll discus your goals, priorities, and the investment you’re considering. Whether your vision is crystal clear or still taking shape, we’re here to listen, answer your questions, and offer expert guidance. This first step also helps ensures we’re the right fit for each other —because great communication and understanding are the foundation of every successful project.

In-Home Visit And Discovery

Let’s take a closer look at your space and explore its potential. We’ll meet at your home—with all decision makers present. We’ll spend about an hour walking through your goals, ideas, and figure a base budget for your project. This meeting also gives us both the opportunity to get better acquainted and see if we are the right fit for one another.

Note: Unless major upgrades are added later, our base budget typically comes within 15% of the final proposed contract.

Selections and Design

Once we enter into our Design Agreement, we begin by carefully measuring, photographing, and documenting your current space. From there, we create layout options and map out all the essentials—plumbing, electrical, cabinetry, and appliances. You’ll also receive a personalized, easy-to-navigate selections list tailored to your liking.

This is where your vision truly starts to take shape. Guided by our Creative Director, you’ll explore finishes, fall in love with your favorites, and finalize your selections. We then bring it all together in scaled drawings, 3D renderings, and your confirmed selections —allowing you to experience your design before construction ever begins.

If needed, a second visit may be scheduled to fine-tune application and construction details as the design and selections are finalized.

Construction Begins

With the design finalized and selections approved, we’ll present your construction contract for review and approval. This includes every plan and design detail—scope of work, payment milestones, and a clear project timeline.

Behind the scenes, we handle permits, place orders, schedule deliveries and coordinate scheduling for all trades.

For larger projects—or simply for added peace of mind—we may hold a pre-construction meeting in your home. During this visit, we review logistics, timelines, setup procedures, and any specific needs you may have. Our goal is to help you live as comfortably as possible throughout the construction process. (Keeping your Remodel Ready E-Book handy is a great way to stay prepared and stress-free during this phase.)

Once everything is in place, it’s show time. We tarp, install floor protection, work path containment, and begin transforming your space with care and precision.
