Our Process

  • We visit your property to take measurements, understand the layout, and talk through your vision—ideally in person, or via phone/video if needed.

  • We’ll share a rough draft of the design and repeat back what we heard, making sure we’re aligned. You’ll also receive a ballpark estimate to help guide any early adjustments.

  • Once we’ve refined the plan, we’ll deliver your first complete design and quote—ideally meeting in person to walk through the details together.

  • Need a tweak or two? One revision is included in your design fee, and we’re happy to fine-tune things to make it just right.

  • When you’re ready to move forward, you’ll sign off on the final design and quote and submit a 20% deposit to secure your spot.

  • We order your materials, schedule your project, and hand everything off to Pete—our Director of Field Operations—who brings your design to life with precision and care.

  • The day before (or the morning of) installation, your designer and Pete will walk the property together to confirm every detail.

  • Some projects take a day, others up to a week and a half—we’ll always keep you informed with a clear timeline and expected completion date.

  • On the last morning, we’ll walk the space with you, review everything together, and take care of any final touches the same day.

  •  Once your project is complete, you’ll receive an invoice for the remaining 80%.

    The timeline from initial assessment to final design is usually two weeks. The timeline from final approved design and quote to project completion is usually two weeks but always less than 45 days.
