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.
