Our Process 1. Dreaming & Planning At our first meeting in your home, we will: • Listen to what you like and don’t like about your current home - your goals, needs, and desires with the project • Discuss how our process helps to make your project a simple and enjoyable experience • Discuss your desired budget and what you’re looking to invest in the project • Review and discuss the next steps in our process, which is usually: • For us to put together a detailed budget and scope of work, we will need a design for the project. This is done through our designer, Linda. • If you decide to move forward with the design phase of the project, we will take photos and get detailed measurements at this first meeting 2. Design & Project Planning • We will get to work on a few design options for your project (a clear floorplan and demo plan) • We’ll meet at your home to present our designs to you o We’ll layer the new design/layout with the current layout so that you can clearly see the changes and updates o We’ll discuss more details at this meeting related to products and materials o We’ll leave you with the plans to further think about and review • Next, we’ll take what we discussed at this meeting and work on a set of design revisions • We will start to work on a detailed proposal and begin the material selection process 3. Finalize Your Plans, Proposal, and Make Selections At this point, we’ll work on the following together: • We will give you a ‘shopping list’ related to materials that need to be selected • You’ll visit our trusted suppliers and pick the materials for your project Once your shopping is completed, we will: • Review final specifications, materials selected, pricing, and preliminary schedule • Review final floor plans and any other necessary views Our goal is to have all of the decisions made before we start the project – this ensures that the project stays on budget and on time. 4. Final Estimate Presentation / Contract Signing We will present our final estimate to you based on your selections, design, and all of the work that will take place to deliver a beautiful project. Once the contract is agreed upon and signed, we will give you the final design bill. Your down payment on the project is not requested until a week or two prior to the start of your project. We will add you to our production schedule and give you an estimated start date! 5. Pre-Construction Before we start actual construction, we will: • Apply for all necessary permits • Order all necessary materials • Coordinate delivery of materials • Review the production schedule • Introduce you to your lead carpenter and the Bailey Construction team • Ask a series of questions regarding general ‘housekeeping’ issues to ensure safety and security of your home/kids/pets • Answer any questions you may have before we begin 6. Construction Get excited – it’s time for the project to begin! During construction, we will: • Have regular meetings with you to keep you informed • Update you on work that is being performed and any updates/changes to the schedule • We work hard to address any concerns and questions that may arise during construction • We’ll be up-front on any changes that may require cost increases or credits due to changes in scope of work 7. Post-Construction After construction work is complete: • We will walk you through the operation of your new fixtures, appliances, and answer any questions you have • Our Warranty Promise starts – If there is a problem with our workmanship – whether it is 5 months or 5 years after the job is completed – we will be there to take care of it, for as long as you own your home. Our goal is to make this process an enjoyable, stress-free experience for you! We want you to love the enhancements to your home – and share your experience with others who would benefit from our service. < back Bailey Construction, Incorporated | 3877 Lone Road | Freeland MI 48623 | O & F: 989-781-4709
