Our Process

Our process includes six steps to the perfect remodeling experience and starts on the first phone call to our office.

We will ask you key questions regarding your remodeling project wish list,,, what you don’t like about your current space and what you are envisioning for your new space.

If at all possible, we will ask you to upload or email us pictures of your existing space so we can look at them as we discuss your wants and wishes. This also helps us to give you a verbal budget range for your project.

If you have an inspiration photos or photos you have been saving on Pinterest, Houzz or the internet, we ask that you send them as well so we can really see what look and style strikes your fancy.

Your in-home consultation is scheduled at this time.

Your in home consultation meeting starts by swapping design paperwork and collecting the agreed design fee or deposit to secure your spot on our calendar.

We will thoroughly explain how our design/build process works, show you our license, and certificate of insurance. While it is extremely important we understand you, we feel that it is equally important that you understand who we are and how we operate professionally so you are 100% comfortable with our partnership.

Next, we take our detailed measurements of your existing space, take photos, then we get to work designing your new remodeling project. During this time, we will sit down with you to zero in on your family’s unique design style and new layout. Colors, lighting, cabinets, plumbing fixtures etc. will all be discussed so we have a clear understanding of what you would like this new space to feel like and look like.

This is where the fun really starts.

At this meeting, we will present you with your new floorplan layout and show you a 3D walk through of your new remodeling project, just like they do on HGTV. You will also be presented with materials selections, based on our previous wants and wishes discussion, for your approval.

Your new space will be redesigned according to your needs, best layout while adhering to current building codes.

The next step is scheduled at this time.

Our team is now working off your newly designed space and will thoroughly inspect your existing project area based on your new floorplan.

We schedule a final meeting to present you with a very detailed and itemized project cost estimate. We walk you through this estimate, explaining every aspect of the construction involved.

Once there is a clear understanding of the details and cost of your project, an Ashley’s Building and Construction contract is signed and you are put on our schedule.

We will go over the construction process with you again which covers payment schedules, start date, completion date and and daily work times. We discuss any special considerations we need to adhere to or be aware of while working in your home.

We then begin all the behind the scenes work such as pulling permits, material ordering and trade scheduling.

Now that your project has begun, your home and your family will be respected, kept safe and clean, making sure that the areas of your home that are not being renovated will be protected to minimize construction dust.

You will receive daily updates on the phases of the remodel via phone call, text, email or face to face. Communication and education throughout the construction phase is extremely important to us.

The more you know and understand about what is going on in your home every step of the way, the more comfortable you are.

In addition to our personal communication, we use a construction software APP that is shared with you and allows you to see your project calendar and pictures relating to your project.

The final punch list has been done and you are enjoying your new remodeled space, but your peace of mind does not end there.

Ashley’s Building provides a limited warranty in addition to your material manufacture warranties.

We are committed to giving you the same high level of service and attention you received during your design and construction phases, so we will keep in touch with you throughout the first year to make sure you are getting the most out of your remodeled home.
