Send all the details

Send us the renovation form, your photos and sketches and any other useful documentation to explain the project to our designer (original plan, sketches, magazine photos, site plan, etc.) using our online form or by email. The original building plan for your home would be extremely helpful to the design process.

In addition, it is always possible to add various additional services to your renovation plan such as the list of materials, the electrical plan, the construction estimate or site visits. Let us know which services are of interest to you.

Receive your free estimate in 48 hours

Within 48 hours (2 business days) of receipt of your documents, or other arrangement as agreed by us, a FREE written estimate detailing our service offer and initial delivery times will be provided to you for approval. The delivery time of a renovation plan can vary from a few days to a few weeks depending on the time of year, and could be readjusted along the way, depending on the time required for your reflection and the number of revisions required following the receipt of your preliminary plans.

Identification and taking measurements

Following your approval of our service offer, the estimator will indicate on the photos you have supplied, the dimensions required for the creation of your plan. You will have to take detailed measurements of your house or cottage according to information we will provide you and return these details to us.

Completion and delivery of our preliminary plan

Following the approval of our estimate (STEP 5) as well as acceptance of the delivery timelines of your final plan and our receipt of the required measurements, sketches can be made for you to ensure that we share the same vision that you have of your project.

• We will then proceed with the production of the preliminary plan which may include, among other things, floor plans and elevations of the 4 sides of the house, or any other information relevant to your renovation project.
• We will then follow up by emailing or handing over your preliminary plan to ensure that all details are in line with your expectations. If you wish, and we have provided for by agreement, different design options can be presented to you.
• At this stage we will make corrections as needed until the entire plan is perfect for you. One to three discussions or meetings (via video conference or phone) are usually enough to allow you to approve the final project.
• It is always possible to add various additional services to your plan such as the electrical plan.
• At this stage it is also best to get quotes from one or more construction contractors.
