Our remodeling process

Our design-build home remodeling process.

A strong project is not improvised on site. It is planned through a disciplined sequence that connects your goals to design, selections, schedule and execution.

Discuss your project
01

Consultation and site review

We discuss goals, priorities, the existing space, decision-makers, timing and an appropriate investment range.

Design and scope

Layouts, 3D visualization, material direction and a detailed scope turn ideas into a project that can be priced and built.

Timing without guesswork

Planning time and construction time are different.

Construction duration starts after the project is ready to build. Design decisions, ordering and applicable approvals belong in the overall timeline too. HOM develops the schedule around the agreed scope and actual conditions, rather than promising the same number of weeks for every home.

01

Before selecting a start date

Agree on the scope, layout, selections and responsibilities. Identify products that must be ordered early and any approvals required for the property.

02

Before demolition

Confirm material availability, the agreed permit plan, room access, protection and how the household will manage without the affected space.

03

Before closing walls or installing finishes

Allow for the applicable rough-ins, inspections and testing. Concealed damage or a scope change may alter the sequence and completion date.

04

Before final handover

Coordinate remaining fixtures, glass or other specialty items, final details, required inspections, cleaning and project documentation.

Can you stay home during the remodel?

Discuss bathroom access, food preparation, pets, children, work-from-home needs, utility interruptions and safe access routes before construction. Whether remaining at home is practical depends on the rooms involved and the work being performed; it is not an automatic promise.
