How it Works
Brainstorming & Space Considerations
Brainstorm ideas and include Likes and Dislikes. Think carefully about how you want to use your new remodelled space. List and negotiate Needs and Possibilities, as well as share inspirations and possibilities.
Determine Budget
When it comes to the budget. How modest or how elaborate depends entirely on the budget. To help you determine this, you need to prioritize. For somewhat restricted budgets, think about what do you need the absolute most over what you want. Don’t shy away from expressing your dreams because you never know till you ask what the possibilities are. Consider the added value to your home the project will provide.
Consultation & Drawings
The initial meeting is one of a “get to know you” for both parties. Its a step by step process of us to get to know your likes, dislikes, style preferences, the essentials you need to compliment your lifestyle etc. Its also a time for you to learn what we can offer within the parameters of your budget.
It possibly could take a couple of visits to talk everything through. We have formatted Q&A’s that get filled out during the discussions to keep everybody on point. You will quickly find we are an accommodating bunch.
Come over to our Manufacturing Plant and see where it all happens. We will take the details/ideas from the initial consultation and draw up a Floor Plan that is an overhead view of the room. With the Floor Plan, an approximate cost would be provided.
Proposal & Agreement
Our first contact will be to discuss what you are thinking of building and a few details to allow us to begin the design and pricing process.
During the second consultation, the floor plan would be looked at and discussed. This would be a rough drafted plan. After this visit, you would have to make the decision whether or not you would like us to proceed any further. If your decision is to hire us, then the next step we will to do hand sketches and computerized drawings and a Quote. Prior to the beginning of actual manufacturing, a deposit is collected and a contract will be signed between you and Magnolia Classic Cabinetry.
Installation
The installation is coordinated with you, your contractor and sub-trades. To ensure everything is on schedule with the construction process, we will stay in constant communication with you. When we are due to enter your home, it will be with professionalism and some fun banter. Generally, it will be one to two days depending on the scope of the project. We are always open to “tweaking” this plan to accommodate you and the other trades invading your home.
Peace Of Mind
After all the planning, all the sorting through ideas and pictures, figuring out options, working out a budget, researching, all those many decisions, it all comes down to that moment when you step into the room and say, “This is beautiful. This is exactly what I wanted. It was worth all the effort. Every bit!”
