What the design covers

Everything a remodel needs decided before the walls come open, drawn out and written down so nobody has to guess on site.

Layout and plan
Where the sink, range, tub and shower go, worked out on a measured floor plan.
Cabinetry drawings
Every wall of cabinets drawn in elevation: door styles, drawer stacks, fillers and the inside of the pantry.
Tile and fixture selection
Tile, counters, faucets, lighting and hardware chosen together, listed with sizes and finishes.
Contractor hand-off
A drawing set and selections list your contractor can price from. Ask what the hand-off includes.

From the first measure to install

Five steps, from the tape measure to the day your contractor starts work.

  1. 1

    Measure

    The room is measured and photographed, and you talk through what isn't working in it.

  2. 2

    Layout

    Layout options on a floor plan, side by side, so you can compare before choosing one.

  3. 3

    Selections

    Tile, stone, wood and metal samples pulled together on one board and seen in your light.

  4. 4

    Drawings

    Cabinet elevations, tile layouts and a fixture schedule, revised until they're right.

  5. 5

    Install

    Your contractor builds from the drawings. Ask how questions from the site get answered during the work.

Samples on the table

Stone, tile, wood and brass look different under your own lights. Ask to borrow samples and see them in the room.

Questions to ask before a remodel

Worth asking any designer or contractor before you sign. Bring the ones you care about to the consult.

Do I need a designer and a contractor, or just one?

A designer decides what goes where and what it's made of; a contractor builds it. Ask how the designer works alongside the contractor you choose.

What should be decided before demolition?

Ideally the layout, the cabinets and every finish. Changes after the walls are open cost time. Ask which selections need to be final before work begins.

Should the layout change, or only the finishes?

Moving a sink, toilet or range moves plumbing and venting with it. Ask to see both options on paper before you decide.

How long do tile, cabinets and fixtures take to arrive?

Lead times vary a lot from one maker to the next. Ask which pieces to order first so nothing holds up the build.

What will the drawings show my contractor?

Ask to see a sample drawing set: plans, cabinet elevations, tile layouts and a list of fixtures with model numbers.

Can I keep my cabinets, tub or flooring?

Often, yes. Ask what can stay and how the new finishes will sit next to the old ones.

Bring a photo of the room.

Send a few photos and the measurements if you have them, and we'll talk through what the room could be.
