Why people choose to work with us
At least 85% of renovation projects go over budget to some degree. Learning how to control costs is a fundamental part of good project management.
Our members often discover that choosing a design team is easier said than done.
Often they don’t have the experience needed to assess a contractor’s workmanship.
Many time, our members find coming up with a budget that reflects project requirements very challenging.
Most of the time, the number one concern is meeting deadlines and the worry that the project will not be completed in time for move-in.
These are the topics we cover with you
- Coming up with a budget and sticking with it
- How to review quotations from contractors
- Where to source materials, fixtures, and furniture
- Coming up with a realistic timeline
- Finding the balance between design and functionality
- How to elevate your design ideas
