Design-Build Process
Six steps from first call to final walkthrough.
Most Maryland remodels split between three companies: a designer, a contractor, and someone to coordinate. We handle all three. One contract. One signature on the warranty.
- 01Free in-home consultation60–90 minutes. No fee. No pressure.We come to you, walk the space, listen to how you live, and rough-bracket the scope. By the end of the visit you know roughly what your project will cost and how long it will take.
- 02Design + material selection3D renderings, samples in-hand, finish board.You see the bathroom or kitchen rendered in 3D before a single tile is ordered. We bring physical samples to your home: tile, paint chips, cabinet doors, hardware, fixtures. Every choice on the table — yours or ours.
- 03Fixed-price agreementLine-item itemization. Real schedule. Signed.You get a single fixed-price contract. Every line item, every fixture, every brand spelled out. Payment schedule tied to milestones, not arbitrary dates. Change-order policy in writing.
- 04Permits + lead timesWe file with your county. Materials ordered.We pull every permit your project requires (Montgomery, Howard, Anne Arundel, Baltimore County, Frederick, Prince George's — same week filing). Cabinets, tile, fixtures all ordered before demo so the home is offline less time.
- 05BuildOne foreman. Daily updates. Floor protection.One foreman is on site every day, your single point of contact. ZipWall containment, RamBoard floor protection, end-of-day clean-up. Photo updates each evening so you know exactly where we are.
- 06Quality walk + 5-year warrantyPunch list. Inspection. Signed warranty.You walk every surface with us. Anything you flag, we fix before final invoice. County inspection passes. Signed 5-year workmanship warranty plus all manufacturer warranties handed over in a project binder.
