What are the benefits to working with a Design-Contractor Team...
If you choose to go it alone you may be missing opportunities that working with a designer may offer.
Historically, customers expect their contractor to be aware of every option available to them to offer a design that exceed their expectations. However, this is the not a realistic approach to a successful execution.
We realize that not all projects require the assistance of a designer. However, there are many opportunities and tasks that a designer offers such as product discounts and ordering materials, a full time job in itself. Working with an interior designer allows the contractor to remain focused on completing the project without getting wrapped up in minutia and details. Customers develop certain expectations, but do not fully understand how to get to where they want to go. Emotions play a big part in the development of a project design as well. By allowing the interior design professional to work with the client, the contractor remains effectively focused on executing the scope of work. Thereby, streamlining the execution portion of the renovation, thus eliminating costly delays..
In this industry, budgets are difficult to define when working on initial project development. Clients typically avoid divulging their budgets, especially to contractors. By working with an interior designer, the client may be more apt to discuss budgets with the expectation that it will help the design professional be more effective to develop the design and guide the customer to choose products closely aligned with their budgetary goal..
Our pricing guidelines are set up hourly for design work and billed directly by the designer, whereas contracting costs are based on square footage costs and do not include material. Divulging a budget means that we are not wasting time in the estimating process to discover a client's initial budget was well below market value.
We are happy to quote a labor cost, which will provide you with a "starting point" for your budgetary needs.
Our Process
During the initial consultation we will meet to discuss your needs and the desired time line. From that point we will assess what is needed to develop an estimate, whether that be a floor plan, elevation drawings, developing a budget, to project execution and completion. .
