MY PROCESS
My Proven Approach
Dream
Whether you've planned your new space for years or it's a new home, start by dreaming. Collect pictures online from places like Instagram and Houzz, visit showrooms, and reflect on what you like and don't like about your current space. Have an open discussion with family to prioritize wish lists based on form and function.
Realize
Time and money can hinder your dreams. Our next step is translating your dreams within the timeline and budget. This phase combines design and estimation, where I apply my skills and experience. I will guide you, laying the groundwork for the project. Decisions made now will help me validate costs and timing accurately.
Execute
After signing off on drawings and contracts, we focus on permits, structural engineering, and asbestos testing. Prioritizing items with long lead times, we protect untouched areas before removing tired carpet. A new schedule is created after the removal. Throughout the process, I am hands-on, managing challenges effectively, and providing regular progress updates. With an open book policy, competitive pricing and fair payment to trades are ensured.

What My Clients Say
My work speaks for itself, but i've had the pleasure of receiving many positive reviews from my amazing clients.
We struggled for years on the design and layout. Finally Jens came up with a design and layout that we were comfortable and confident to commit to. It turned out perfectly.
Leigh & Kellie Sauer
We can't thank Jens enough. He has put together a great team and only offers superb work. His project management skills are second to none, ensuring that our complete kitchen re-build was performed within a great timeline and caused surprisingly minor disruption to our household. We have had plenty of work done around the house over the years, and Jens surpassed all our expectations with his attention to detail and quality work. He was always willing to accommodate changes and fast to fix problems. They're also terrific people to deal with, and we've enjoyed meeting them.
