5. Your Needs Come First Project starts with discovery about you needs: Timelines Budgets Goals What’s motivating you to remodel?  What are you concerned about? What’s most important to you? As per Neil Kelly Design Consultant: “It lets me look at the feasibility of a project; how we can architecturally tie it in so it looks like it was original to the house, or how we can maintain Consistency between exterior and interior spaces.”

6. Discovery Meets Design  Once your team has met to review the preliminary plans, we dig into the details. In design meetings, we work together with clients to review plans and renderings, discuss products and materials and talk plan options. “When I work with somebody who hasn’t gone through our design-build process, they’re used to being a do-it-yourselfer. They ask ‘Where do I need to go to look for samples?’” says Richmond. “I’ll respond with: ‘Do you want to do the shopping or do you want me to bring ideas to you?’ And they usually answer with ‘Oh, you’ll do that?’” This collaborative process helps you maintain your vision for the project from the very beginning. To ensure clients get a sense of what the design will look like in person, Neil Kelly does a job-site walkthrough with the project manager and tradespeople involved. This also eliminates any surprises during the construction process. “Everyone’s going to see your home and troubleshoot,” says Richmond.

8. Planning and Construction Most of our planning happens behind the scenes. You may not see or hear from us all that much, but there’s a lot happening — scheduling, ordering, obtaining permits. As the process moves along, you’ll realize the benefit of having a single, dedicated point of contact. “The biggest piece of planning is the scheduling,” says Richmond, “because we have to know when our materials will be on hand. We don’t want to start until they’re available, then we have all of our tradespeople buy into the schedule.” Once planning is complete, you’ll get a start date and a written construction timeline. “We’re going to do all we can to hold to that timeline,” says Richmond. It’s an integral part of maintaining the trust we develop with our clients. “We’ve even had clients go away while we do the construction. They know everything is documented and we’re going to build it the way it was all planned.” While you may not be ready to leave your home alone, our design-build process ensures that your remodel is in good hands — and our five-year service guarantee makes sure it stays that way.
