Consultation
The first step to building your dream kitchen is to schedule a consultation with one of our experienced designers. At the consultation we will talk about the hopes and dreams you have for your kitchen or bathroom space and discuss the feasability of your project. We will go over possible layout options, different finishes that are available and project timelines. Our designer will take detailed measurements of your space, so that we can start working on your design right away if you decide you’d like to move forward.
Design
During this phase our design team will begin to bring your ideas to life. We will develop plans for your space including a floor plan and an itemized list of finishes. We will present the initial plans to you at our design studio in Wilsonville, where you will be able to see cabinetry, countertop and other options in person. Then we will revise the plan to your liking until it’s absolutely perfect! At this point, we will sign the construction agreemment and prepare for construction!
Build
This is where the rubber meets the road. We will have a preconstruction meeting at your home with your designer and the production team to go over all the details. You’ll receive a login for our management system so you can see the construction schedule each week. Once we start, the production team will work hard to bring your dreams into reality. We’ll wrap up by doing a walk through with you to make sure we’ve caught every detail. This is the longest phase of the project of course, but when we are done you will have the kitchen you’ve always dreamed of!
