Driven by Design

Contact the showroom nearest you for an appointment, or simply stop in. We’ll discuss the type of project, wants, needs, location, budget, contractor, timeframe, design fee (if applicable), etc. We may explore door styles, finish options, internal components, and more while in the showroom.

Feel free to bring samples of new or existing flooring, tile, paint color, trim, etc., inspiration photos, your budget, and your wish list for storage capabilities, functionality, etc.

Next, we’ll schedule a meeting at your home to measure your space, discuss function, flow, wants, needs, etc. If you’re building new, we’ll need your floorplan, and schedule a site visit later.

We’ll use this time to gain an understanding of the overall project scope: Is the project isolated to a single room? Will multiple rooms be affected? Will we need to consider blending old and new?

With what we learn during steps 1 and 2, we’ll begin designing a layout(s) for you to consider. This varies by season, showroom, and designer, but we typically ask for 1-2 weeks to prepare an initial design + pricing.

We’ll schedule a time to present the initial design and ideas + renderings to better envision the space, and talk or select finishes, countertops, tile, hardware, etc.

All projects and clients are unique, so the stages and phases can vary, but lots of back and forth is common as we make final selections, changes, and tweaks.

Once you’re ready, we’ll finalize the design and prepare the contract. We’ll conduct a final measure, and cabinets and other materials will be ordered. We’ll also communicate timeframes and expectations.

Once your cabinets are ready, we’ll reach out and coordinate delivery. Our delivery team will bring everything to you.

We’ll ask you to prep an area that is clear of debris, temperature- and humidity-controlled, and on the ground level.

We recommend keeping cabinets boxed until installation to avoid any potential damage.

We do not service installation. Therefore, you will need to vet and hire your own contractor or crew to install your cabinets, hardware, sinks, etc.

Upon unboxing your cabinets during install, contact your designer with any questions or concerns. We’re used to working with carpenters to make sure the plans go from paper to in-person just as envisioned!

Once your project is complete, enjoy! And, if you ever have any questions, feel free to send our way.
