HOW WE WORK

1. INTRO

As soon as we receive your request for a quote or an initial phone call, we will connect with you promptly to ask, and answer, questions about your project. We’ll also set an appointment to arrange an initial meeting with you and your family.

2. FIRST MEETING

We’ll be happy to meet and introduce ourselves to give you a better understanding of what CCR Designs is all about. In this meeting, we’ll discuss your budget, the time frame, your goals, wish list, and design style! We encourage you to bring us ideas and references (a Pinterest board of home inspiration is perfect!). There’s many options available in a project, so the next step is to collect detailed measurements and get an initial idea of the design and the project scope. Our estimator will take care of this important step!

3. PROJECT PLANNING

We understand how important it is to integrate construction and design. During the planning stages, there are so many options and a lot of questions may arise. Do you need a designer? Will you need an engineer? Are permits required? All these questions can be so overwhelming, but worry not, CCR Designs has all these answers and more covered. We can provide you with excellent professionals who we partner with to help you achieve your goal. Once we have a more clear idea of your choices, CCR Designs will then reach out within 7 – 14 business days to meet and review the detailed estimate.

4. ESTIMATION

By now, we have a good understanding of your style choices, layouts, and goals. During this presentation, we take the time to carefully go through our detailed estimate with you by breaking down all the labour and materials for the scope of work. We strive to provide you with a competitive price that meets your project scope of work. Our estimator will leave the sales package with you to discuss and follow up a couple of days later. Should you feel at that point that CCR Designs is a fit for your renovation needs and family dynamic, we will set up a future date to sign the initial estimate and contract.

5. CONFIRMATION

Thanks for trusting CCR Designs to work on your project! We are excited to get started on your renovation! Our office will connect with you to either set up a time with your project designer and engineer. We will go through the detailed invoice and contract so you can see the job defined clearly. You will meet your on-site manager, review some additional planning details and we will collect the agreed upon deposit. The start and finish dates for your project will be confirmed, and the next steps of preparing your home for renovation begin.

6. PREPARATION

Before construction begins, there is prep work to be done. You may need to make room for material storage, move furniture, and clear pathways. Materials may be delivered to your home ahead of time and arrangements for pets will need to be made. Your on-site manager will review all these requirements with you to ensure you, your home, and your family are treated with care and respect.

7. CONSTRUCTION TIME!

It’s one of the most exciting steps: it’s finally happening! You will find that each day you’ll be closer to see your dream becoming a reality as we progress from one stage to another. During the construction process, you will be constantly updated on the progress. Once it’s all done, we’ll get everything ready for the best day ever: your moving day!

LIVING ROOM RENOVATION

"I am happy to say that my experience with CCR Designs has been excellent. They gave me a clear and concise quote up front and stuck to their pricing. The final bill was actually slightly less than the quote (nice).  Any changes during the job were clearly discussed, understood by both parties and documented.  They started on schedule and finished on schedule, kept the work area neat and tidy and took efforts to contain any dust within the work area. It was a pleasure dealing with them as they were flexible, and understood my expectations. They could see the job from my perspective and the end result was beautiful. The little details make the difference between a job that is ok and a job that I am really pleased with. Their attention to detail was exemplary. And when the work was all done the clean up crew made my Reno look great. Good job guys." 

- Peter & Rita

BRAND NEW BATHROOM

"We would like to thank the CCR Designs Team for all the hard work put forth during our recent bathroom renovation.  The process was very well organized and went smoothly considering the challenges they were up against.  We are grateful to Cornerstone on a job well done and are looking forward to our next adventure....The Kitchen!!!!  

- Jeffrey & Diana

ENTIRE HOME RENOVATION

"Team CCR Designs!  You do not approach your profession solely with the mindset of businessmen, but with the heart's of people who truly serve others with honesty, integrity, and just genuinely caring about your customer.  For that reason we want to say "Thank You" to all of you.  Two months ago, Cornestone provided service to our property. The workers were prompt, professional and produced an excellent outcome. They were considerate and mannerly. We could not be more pleased with the way our interior turned out. New interior/exterior doors, new floors throughout the house, new lighting everywhere, new closets, new windows, new banister, new bathrooms, new kitchen with a 10 foot island, great open concept with two support beans... Wow! Hats off to all the crew.  We would not hesitate recommending Cornestone to any family, friend, neighbour, or co-worker.."

- John and Esther

CUSTOMIZED BATH FOR IN-LAWS

"I give it a 10/10!  Everything is perfect.  The work was beautifully completed.  We love the shower.  Friends have been coming by for 'tours' and loving what they are seeing.  Thank you for doing this so quickly.  The need was there for our aged mother we are caring for."

- Janet

BATHROOM AND KITCHEN RENOVATION

"The professionalism exhibited by the entire crew at CCR Designs gave me the confidence that the job would be done right. At the start of the project, Brendan and Melissa responded quickly to my questions regarding the renovation process, timelines and budget. The contract was thorough and clearly outlined what Cornerstone would do. Throughout the renovation, the project manager, demonstrated technical expertise and provided design advice that enhanced the space. He responded to questions and requests almost immediately, even after hours (which was unexpected, but appreciated). The work space and surrounding areas were kept relatively tidy throughout the renovation process and the professional cleaning after the renovations were completed was a nice touch. The project was completed on time and within the specified budget. I even threw in an added project (wallpapering the powder room), which was completed within the original timelines for the bathroom and kitchen. I love my new bathroom, kitchen and powder room! I would definitely use CCR Designs again for future renovations.”
