The Home Renovation Process at Abethu Builders
Step 1: Initial Consultation and Quote
The journey of renovation begins with an initial consultation. We meet you at your home to discuss your renovation ideas, assess the current state of your property, and understand your goals. This step typically takes about an hour and is free of charge. Following this meeting, we provide you with a detailed written quote, clearly outlining all costs associated with the project, including labor, materials, and any additional services.
Step 2: Project Planning and Review
Once you approve the quote, we move on to project planning. This involves finalizing material choices, scheduling timelines, and ordering necessary supplies. For projects requiring building plans or council approvals, we handle that paperwork on your behalf, ensuring a smooth and compliant renovation process.
Step 3: Execution and Quality Control
The execution phase is where our skilled tradespeople come in. We prioritize quality control at every stage of the renovation. Our project supervisor regularly visits your site to ensure that work is progressing as planned and that all standards are met. We also maintain open lines of communication with you throughout the renovation, so you are always aware of progress and any changes.
