How do you handle unexpected issues during renovation?
Unexpected issues (hidden structural problems, outdated systems, etc.) can arise in any renovation. When encountered, we immediately notify you, provide solution options with cost/time implications, and seek your approval before proceeding. Our contingency planning and experienced team minimize surprises and handle issues efficiently when they occur.
Can you work within our budget?
We work with clients across various investment levels, though our specialty is premium and luxury renovations. During initial consultation, we'll discuss your budget, priorities, and goals to determine if we're the right fit. We provide transparent pricing, value engineering options when needed, and never compromise on structural integrity or code compliance.
What is your timeline for large renovation projects?
Timeline depends on project scope. Typical ranges: Whole-home renovations (4-9 months), home additions (3-6 months), basement finishing (2-4 months). We provide detailed timelines during planning and communicate regularly about progress. Our goal is on-time completion without sacrificing quality.

We catch issues early and ensure every detail meets our high standards before declaring a phase complete.
Can we live in our home during renovation?
Depending on scope, many clients do remain in their homes during renovation.
