The Remodeling Contractors Process

 

From Start to Finish: A Streamlined Remodeling Experience

At Express Handyman, we manage every aspect of your remodel professionally. This begins with your first phone call and continues until the final completion. It all starts with our efficient PreConstruction Process. This process helps you visualize your renovation and provides a clear understanding of the timeline and budget. Ultimately, our goal is to minimize stress and ensure that every detail is planned with precision.

A Simple, Streamlined Design Process

We have developed a streamlined design process that allows you to see your dream remodel through 3D computer renderings. Along with these renderings, we provide detailed timelines and budget estimates. This way, you know exactly what to expect.

The duration of this process can vary based on project complexity. However, every step is vital to ensure everything runs smoothly and efficiently. Our aim is to eliminate confusion regarding your construction contract and provide a clear picture of the costs involved.

Initial Consultation and Conceptual Planning

After your initial consultation, our team will draft several design options for you to review. We will also create a comprehensive scope of work and provide a detailed estimate that is as accurate as possible. Before concluding the consultation, we will schedule a follow-up meeting within 1-2 weeks. During this meeting, we will present our concepts and discuss a proposed budget range.

This second meeting is crucial. It allows us to align our designs with your expectations. We will take this opportunity to review the project scope and confirm that our initial estimate matches your budget.

The PreConstruction Process: Turning Ideas Into Reality

If you decide to proceed after our second meeting, we will begin the PreConstruction Process with a 5% retainer. This investment starts the formal design and bidding process, ensuring your project is both feasible and cost-effective.

Here’s what to expect during our PreConstruction Process:

  • Feasibility Meeting: Our design team will collaborate to refine concepts and align them with your budget.
  • Detailed Project Plans: We will provide thorough plans that detail the existing structure, proposed layouts, and essential features like cabinet drawings.
  • 3D Renderings: To help you visualize the final product, we will create realistic 3D renderings of your remodeled space.
  • Engineering Review: We will handle any engineering requirements necessary for your project’s structural integrity.
  • Scope of Work and Permits: We will compile a detailed scope of work, coordinate trade days, and manage all permitting needs with local authorities.
  • Material Selections: Our team will assist you in selecting all project materials, ensuring every detail matches your vision.
  • Fixed Bid: Once everything is planned, we will provide you with a fixed bid for your remodeling project. This prevents any unexpected costs.

Why the PreConstruction Process Matters

Investing in your home is a significant decision. We understand that you want your money to be well spent. By choosing our PreConstruction Process, you secure an accurate bid and minimize the risk of surprises during construction. Thus, this financial commitment now will help you avoid costly headaches later on. Ultimately, we ensure a smoother remodeling experience from start to finish.
