- CONCEPT:
First, we will meet and talk about the bathroom(s) in your home that you are looking to remodel and your reasoning’s behind this project. Call or e-mail us and we will set up a time to come to your home and take measurements and photos. This will help us to understand the full scope of your project! We offer a FREE consultation, which gives us the opportunity to learn even more about your dream bathroom!
- BUDGETING:
After your first consultation, we will be able to provide you with an estimate for your project based on your initial requests. To give you an idea, a 2016 National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) Survey of remodelers showed the average bathroom remodeling project cost to be between $10,000 and $29,999.
- DESIGN:
Once we have agreed on a budget, we will then begin the design process. Abbey Design Center will collect a design fee for design work, but this fee is credited back to you at contract initiation. While we’re designing the layout, we’re also helping you select all of the products and finishes for your complete bathroom remodel. Once we’ve put everything together, you will have a contract ready detailing the complete project for your approval!
- PREPARATION:
Once you have approved the plan, we will start ordering all of those great products and finishes that we selected for your bathroom. We’ll procure any necessary permits and begin to choose and schedule the tradesman for your project. We’ll keep you updated on the arrival of sinks, bathtubs, toilets and other major components.We’ll also let you know the starting date of your renovation so that you have time to temporarily empty the space. We will introduce our installers to you so that you can discuss the necessary details of your home operations and other important information they will need to know before beginning (i.e., don’t let the cat out).
- INSTALLATION:
The day you have waited for has finally arrived! – Oh, wait, that’s the completion date. An average bathroom demolition and installation takes 2-4 weeks. You should know that we’ll have to shake up a little dust and make some noise to rebuild and achieve your dream bathroom. Rest assured that we will try our best to keep the disruption to a minimum, though. You will find Abbey’s craftsmen to be conscientious, personable, and respectful of your home and time. Your tradesman will be hard at work crafting your bathroom according to your design plan. You can expect daily clean ups and/or cover ups to help protect your home. We’ll do a walk through with you several times to make sure everything on the punch list has been completed to your satisfaction!
- COMPLETION:
After we have checked the last item off the punch list and have confirmed that you are satisfied, you will then be ready to have your new and beautifully renovated bathroom back to yourself! We hope we exceed your expectations and we hope that you’ll enjoy better days in your bathroom or a higher home value if you’re looking to sell your current home and move on to a new home. Whichever the case, please take a couple of pictures of your new bathroom and share it with us on Facebook! We always appreciate our satisfied customers sharing photos of their new bathrooms on social media!
