Communication Every Day
You will hear from Deane every day by text, email or phone, whichever you prefer. If you have a question, you call the person who is actually running your job.
Our Remodeling Process
Here is how a project works with Berith Builders, from your first call to the final walkthrough. Owner Deane Wolfe is with you at every step.
- 01
The First Call
Deane answers the phone himself. He will ask about your project, your timing and your budget. Talking about budget early helps him understand what you have in mind and suggest what is realistic.
- 02
Free In-Home Visit
Deane sets up a visit, usually within a couple of days. He measures, looks at the space and talks with you about layout and finishes. He is not a salesman, and he will not push you to sign anything. The visit is a chance for you to get to know him, and for him to make sure the project is a good fit.
- 03
Written, Itemized Estimate
Within a couple of days of the visit, Deane emails you a written, itemized estimate and follows up with a call to go over it. If plans or permits are not done yet, he will tell you clearly that it is a basic budget and explain what could change.
- 04
Detailed Contract
The contract is built from the estimate. You can read it, ask questions and ask for wording changes. A clear contract protects both of you.
- 05
Design and Permits
About 60 percent of our clients need help with design or permits. Deane gives design direction on layout, tile and materials and works with architects and designers when drawings are needed. He pulls the permits and meets with inspectors.
- 06
Schedule
Before work starts, Deane emails you a construction sequence showing the order of the work.
- 07
Construction
Deane is on site overseeing the trades. He keeps the job site clean and safe and works to keep stress and disruption to your home as low as he can.
- 08
Final Walkthrough and Warranty
You walk through the finished work together. Labor is covered by a 1-year warranty, and installed products carry their manufacturer warranties.
Why We Only Take Two or Three Jobs at a Time
Deane keeps his workload small on purpose. It lets him be on site, answer calls quickly and give each project his full attention.
Help With Sourcing
Deane helps you find the products you want and will shop around for the best price on cabinets, counters, tile and fixtures.
