The Design Builders Process

Free e book choosing a dependable contractor

 

The world is changing quickly.  Design Builders saw years ago that people had less interest in having someone come to their home for a consultation.  Kids, work, dinner. Then, of course, Covid happens.

Design Builders set out to do things a little differently. 

 

THE ONLINE DESIGN CONSULTATION

During Covid, we did all our meetings online.  We refined this process, and now prefer it over having the first meeting in person.  Why? 

Many folks prefer to do things online initially.  So here, the initial meeting is online, using Zoom.  Now, we know some want to meet quickly.  We understand that.  As part of our 2nd phase, we come out to meet in person and take some measurements.  So, we are meeting quickly. 

Online meetings allow us to be much more in-depth, with the ability to show you more, cover more, and get an estimate to you faster.  More than any other comment we hear is " wow, what a great first meeting".

 Having online meetings gives customers the freedom to communicate from anywhere—whether that’s at work, from the comfort of their homes, or in any other Internet-enabled location.  You can use your computer, your tablet, or your phone. Our process works across all platforms.  And because of this, multiple people can join a meeting from anywhere at the same time.  

We recently had a Zoom conference call with a local client and their spouse who was in Bangkok.  That would not be possible without our use of technology.  

We ask for just a little bit of input from you. We ask for 8-10 photos of your property.  We also request a copy of your property map/plat.  We need this to understand the parameters of the yard, and to also create a render.  

From here, using Zoom, it's just like sitting in your kitchen.  We can show you what we do, exchange ideas and show products.  Ww talk about wishes and desires vs. wants and needs, and get to you a ballpark estimate.

 

GETTING STARTED 

You can call, email, or fill out one of our forms.  We will send you a link to our calendar.  YOU pick and choose the date and time you are available.  We try to keep things between 8am and 4:30 pm. If that doesn't work,  let us know. We will see what our options are.  

 

Putting the Customer First

Design Builders wishes to make the process as easy as possible for customers.  It’s a customer-first policy. Our goal is to build a professional relationship.
