About Us

A Design + Build Showroom brings the entire project under one roof. This allows your input on the project from beginning to end where don’t have to worry about being the go-between for design, materials selection, and construction. You’re working a team that not only has excellent designers but also an experienced team of project managers. Plus, all of our contracted tradesmen are vetted and hired by us, so you never have to worry about sourcing out your work or managing the subcontractors for your project. We pull the permits, build the space to code, and work with only licensed tradespeople so construction is as painless as possible.

Direct comparison to a general contractor, you may find that Design + Build will look more expensive upfront. A Design + Build company offers you a remodel from start to finish, with less of the stress and self-management you may find with a general contractor who may require payment to sub-contractors and materials vendors outside of his services. That process lacks having one person or company that is focused on the entire project vs. only a few parts.

It’s important to know that we have been trained in this field and have years of experience in design and remodeling – including how a project should come apart and go back together. Your project is our top priority, and unlike big box stores, you will have the same contact person throughout your project and after the project is completed. If something needs changed, or comes in damaged, or incorrect, we can remedy problems before it delays the entire project. We also pride ourselves in having a wide range of cabinet, countertop, and flooring options. We will find the best bang for your buck, and help you find a selection you love. Not to mention, you won’t be buying the same thing that every neighbor on your block is buying this weekend at the box store

Our designers are the creative powerhouses behind all of our projects. They take all of our clients from an initial idea to a construction-ready plans. The designers you’ll work with are experts in space planning and can reimagine your space in ways you’ve never considered. They walk you through not only the design but the selection of finishes for your project, electrical and plumbing plans, and construction details. They are the creative vision and the detail behind your project.

Yes, our designers are trained in both architectural and cabinetry design CAD software. Whether you need construction plans for an addition, new build, or an interior remodel – we have the skills and resources to accommodate your needs.

Yes, we do charge for all design work only to protect our time. All design services are fully credited to the final project cost when signing into a construction contract with Home Indeed for the full project scope of work commencing within one (1) year of the design agreement. With our process, you’ll know exactly what you’re getting before you ever put money down.

After the Project Service Agreement is signed, we will schedule the first 1-on-1 meeting with the designer. Typically, within 15-20 business days of this meeting, we will deliver schematic designs for your review. Design services will include (2) reworks of the initial design at no additional expense.

First of all, unlike many others in the industry, we will answer the phone as long as we are not in a meeting. In that case, if you leave a message, we will return you call promptly.

More than likely, an office admin or designer will answer the phone when you call. Our goal with this call is to answer the following questions:

· WHAT: Type of project are you looking to do? Do you have a budget in mind for this project?

· WHEN: Are you looking to have the work started or finished by a certain deadline?

· WHERE: Location of the project?

· WHY: Reason for the project? What’s the problem you are trying to solve?

· WHO: How did you hear about us?

If the project seems like a good fit for both parties, a phone appointment will be scheduled with you and a Project Developer to discuss your project in greater detail.

Email and text conversations are great tools for efficiencies, but we believe the first conversation should be done over the phone. Even when being careful, email and text messages are full of possibilities for misinterpretation, and we want to be positive that all information is received in the way intended.

YES!!

Estimate = an approximation of cost using loose variables & definitions (an assumption of cost). We will use estimates or “Ballparks” to give an approximate cost on a larger job before actually doing a proposal, so that you may determine whether your request will fit within your budget.

Proposal = a detailed scope of work, material selections, project specifications and costs. A proposal requires a lot more time and leg work to determine pricing on particular materials the client may have requested, services from subcontractors, permit fees for different municipalities, structural engineers, planning, etc. Proposals are not subject to change; however, clients do sometimes change their minds about one aspect, or an unforeseen issue may arise. These items are handled with change orders.

Depending on the type of project, it will be a combination of Home Indeed staff employees and sub-contractors. Staff employee includes project developers, project leads, designers & installers. Sub-contractors include plumbers, electricians & drywall finishers. We often hear from our customers how our team becomes “like a second family” to them during the project.

Yes. You will have access to the project schedule through our online project management software. This allows you access at any time, day or night.

Although remodeling can be and often is very dusty and dirty, we take measures to reduce the mess while your project is under construction. We install plastic dust barriers and drop cloths to isolate the construction area as much as possible. We cover any HVAC registers in the work areas. We often incorporate air scrubbers in high dust areas to help further reduce the migration of dust to other areas throughout your home. The bottom line is that we are very sensitive about dust control and all of us are very conscientious. We will do what we can to make sure your experience is as pleasant as possible

A full cleanup of your job site is done daily on all of our projects. We maintain the highest standards for our job sites and guarantee the cleanliness of all areas we work in within your home.

Yes. Our full-service showroom provides a vast selection of cabinetry, countertops, cabinetry hardware, window treatments, tile, hardwood flooring, luxury vinyl flooring, carpet, electrical fixtures, plumbing fixtures, windows, doors and more.

Unfortunately, we require all materials to be sourced through us. We used to allow our clients to provide their own materials but have too many issues with that. We rely on our partnerships with our vendors to help with damaged products, unique installations, and specialized product information. Plus, by allowing us to provide the materials, there is no questions on who is responsible for warranty issues, should they arise.

The need to move out depends both on the scope of work for your project and your level of comfort with living in the home during construction. We do our best to make sure construction is as unobtrusive as possible. We work during business hours in your home and take several precautions to make sure that you can continue to enjoy your home even throughout construction. Typically, basement projects do not see an issue with clients living in the home, but full-home remodels or homes with a single bathroom may be more intrusive.

This can vary depending on the scope & size of the project.

We do NOT represent the negative stereotypes that surrounds the construction industry. If we decide to work together, we will do everything possible to keep your project moving as quickly as possible and ensuring it is to your satisfaction throughout the process. Many of these stories stem from contractors starting too many projects at one time or charging too little up front to get the business, which in turn doesn’t match the scope of work

We are typically available for in-home meetings 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. We believe that dedicated weekend time with family and friends is important for a healthy personal and work life. You can go to our contact us page for a free consultation.

Really this depends on how invasive your project is, how many structural the changes there are, and what municipality you’re in – but that’s why you can rely on us! We have a licensed general contractor on staff and on every project so we can carry that burden for you! We oversee every inspection and all the way to final close-out.

Yes, and no. Our design-process features 3D renderings like what you might be used to seeing on HGTV. These renderings give you a complete visual as to what your finished space will look like so you can get a feel for your remodel before we ever start construction. A common show feature of HGTV is the expensive surprise during construction, like the discovery of a load-bearing wall, or the need to reroute plumbing that can add thousands to the project. Unlike HGTV, our process ensures that we find all of these potential construction obstacles prior to the start of construction, and with our price-guarantee, even if a surprise does come up that we didn’t catch during our pre-work, you won’t be hit with surprise costs.

Yes. We have a 5-year warranty on workmanship and a 10-year structural warranty. Our workmanship conforms to the guidelines stated in the NAHB Residential Construction Performance Guidelines.

While your home is being remodeled, you should insure the structure and its contents. If you don’t, then you could be exposed to certain risks that are out of your control, including fire and weather. When hiring a remodeling contractor, find out if they have workers compensation insurance and ask to see a copy of the policy. Workers’ compensation pays for medical and rehabilitation expenses and covers lost wages if the workers sustain injuries on the job. You should also protect yourself by verifying that whoever is remodeling your home is carrying proper insurance coverage.

When our process is followed, Home Indeed GUARANTEES all proposal pricing. Upon completion, you will see why Our Process is a necessary step in carefully planning a successful project. Protect your investment & avoid the risk of a typical "estimate" that lacks the detail & the proper time investment necessary to accurately evaluate your project.

Comparing different estimates can certainly help, but rarely are 2 bids ever apples to apples. We always advise homeowners to not only comparing prices, but also comparing the scope of work details, online reviews, craftsmanship, and customer service. Whether you choose Home Indeed Design + Build or another company, hire the contractor that you feel the most comfortable with. Remember, no matter who you choose, these individuals will be in your home on a daily basis, so you must completely trust them.

Yes, our initial consultation 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 30-45 minutes), we will provide you with a “Budget Estimate”. This estimate doesn’t get into too many of the small details of your project but will give you an idea of cost on a high level before going to the next step of the process. The next step is usually signing a project service agreement and making all the material selections, before creating a proposal with a detailed scope of work.

Reputation speaks volumes about any contractor. If you go with a company that has excellent references and satisfied customers, then you’ll likely get a quality end product at a fair price. Online review sites are key at this point, make sure to look at these before picking up the phone. Do your homework because those sites are your biggest resource when making this decision. If they don’t have reviews, you should put them in the same category of a bad review until you can prove different

Unfortunately, we do not accept credit card payments. We want to make sure we keep costs as low as possible for our customers and accept cash, check or E-Checks through our management software
