The project
Know what happens.
And what happens next.
A straightforward 300–700 square foot finish often takes about five weeks on site. Larger or divided layouts can take six to eight. The written schedule accounts for your actual rooms.
Before week one
We visit, measure, check for moisture and discuss how you’ll use the room. You review the layout, finishes, price and schedule. We pull the permit when your town asks for one.
Before the start, we agree on a route for carrying materials, where to put tools and when we can work. We ask you to clear the work area; we protect the route through the house.
A typical five-week finish
- Week 1
Mark out the room
We protect the path in, mark the walls on the floor and walk through the layout with you. We check moisture again before framing starts.
- Week 2
Build what sits behind the walls
Framing, planned wiring and any agreed heating adjustments happen while the walls are open. You can still see where everything runs.
- Week 3
Close up and smooth out
Wallboard and ceiling work take shape. Joint finishing needs time to dry, so this week has quieter gaps between visits.
- Week 4
Make it feel like a room
Paint, flooring, doors and trim go in. We keep the access panels and storage areas in the places you agreed.
- Week 5
Walk through it together
We finish the small items, clean the work area and make a written list of anything still to do. You know who is returning and when.
Drying time, materials and town visits can move the dates. We explain a change and update the schedule instead of leaving you to guess.
January–March 2027
The winter start list
In November, we’re gathering requests for winter projects. Tell us which month works for you and whether you can be flexible. We agree on a date only after the visit and written scope; joining the list does not reserve a start.
Let’s look downstairs.
A few measurements, a conversation about the room, and a check for moisture come first.
