We strongly recommend allowing Ayars to supply the products that you select from our local vendors. We rely on partnerships to help us with warranty issues, damaged products, installation guidelines, and specialized product information.
Yes. We have a showroom in our office, which allows us to help guide key material decisions on things such as cabinetry, tiling, and flooring. Additionally, we partner with local vendors and utilize their showrooms for other product selections.
In most remodeling projects a permit is required. Any electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and/or structural changes need to be reviewed by the local municipality’s code officials to ensure the integrity and safety of the work. Ayars will handle all permit applications, submissions, and scheduling of all rough and final inspections.
Any work that will result in additional costs will be processed as a “Change Work Order.” We will present to you, in writing, the proposed cost of the additional work prior to proceeding.
In most cases, homeowners will remain in the home during construction. Some more extensive whole home remodels can be a bit more tricky and this will be outlined in the initial meeting and planning phases if the renovation warrants that type of exit strategy.
Yes. Our business is entirely schedule-driven. We map out the entire job schedule from a monthly overview to a daily view for each job so that our customers and supporting teams can make every effort to produce the job on time.
Every project is different with its own set of circumstances and complexities. Through a brief conversation, we can give you an estimated time frame for almost any project size.
Once you have signed a contract on a home, we would love to meet with you and do a walkthrough of the areas you are looking to remodel. Unfortunately, through many years of providing these estimates before a home purchased, we have found that it is not something we would prefer to do until the deal is done. Visit our Pricing Guide, refer to our Cost Vs. Value reports, or feel free to Contact Us for a quick conversation.
We are typically available for in-home appointments from Monday through Thursday during the day with some evening availability. We also set aside time on Friday mornings for appointments as well. We do not set appointments from Friday afternoon through the weekend as we believe that dedicated weekend time with family and friends is important for a healthy personal and work life. Visit our Contact Us page to schedule your free consult.
We believe email and texts certainly have their place through the process of a project, but we believe the initial introductions and conversation should be done over the phone. This allows both of us to determine whether or not we are a good fit. There are many projects that don’t fit our company profile and process and we would not want to waste your time with a meeting.
Yes, our initial ‘measure call’ is free of charge because we understand that it’s really hard to get an idea of how much your project will cost on your own. After our first meeting (which typically lasts about 30-60 minutes), we will provide you with a verbal “Budget Estimate”. This estimate will give you an idea of cost on a high level before going to the next step of the process. If the budget makes sense, we will ask that you begin to ‘make selections’ and work with us on design elements to prepare your proposal.
We have had the privilege of creating some amazing spaces for our clients, but if your budget doesn’t meet those great ideas, we will be wasting both of our time. Starting with a realistic and honest budget, you allow us to design based on both your needs and your budget. It’s normal not to know what a realistic budget should be for your project. Check out our pricing guides along with the resource below as a guideline.
