Our Process

The Estimate
Homeowners are encouraged to bring a dimensioned floor plan and wish list to the first consulatation in our showroom. With this basic information, our designers can come up with a rough estimate in as little as fifteen minutes.

The Measurement
Proceeding to the next step, the designer sets up an appointment to meet at the job site with our contractor to take measurements, and review the feasibility of the project. The discussion about the homeowners specific goals, requests and concerns continues from here. A design retainer is determined at this point. The fee is based on the complexity of the project and is collected to proceed to the layout phase. A portion of the retainer may be credited back once the project is purchased.

The Layout
We spend a lot of time on the layout to make the best design for our customer. Our designer may come up with several different options that are creative, yet sensible. Homeowners are encouraged to take these drawings home and mull them over to achieve the final master plan. A focus on visual planning helps make that possible. We have invested in a sophisticated computer system to provide excellent visual aids for our customers and ensure easy installation once the project begins.

The Products
We work with Wood-Mode custom cabinets ,Brookhaven by Woodmode semicustom cabinets, Focus on U by Ovation and Waypoint. These products feature sturdy construction and many style and finish choices to accomodat your budget and lead time needs. We also work with dozens of fixture lines and man made countertop manufacturers, and can refer customers to a number of reputable granite and tile companies.

The Work
As a general contractor, the company oversees every aspect of a redesign. In house carpenters handle tear out, cabinet installation, and general carpentry such as new walls. We work with the same plumbing, electrical, tile and granite trade contractors on all of our jobs to remain consistant with superior quality. Once all of the puzzle pieces have been placed, the resulting kitchen represents a balance between beauty and practicality.
