In-Home Design Consultation in Nashville and Middle Tennessee
Estimates, Repair and Care

In-Home Design Consultation

An in-home design consultation where we meet on your property to talk through size, style, colors, materials and layout, with sketches and samples to help you decide.

Design is easier standing in the yard. A consultation lets you see where the building will sit, how it relates to the house and how colors look in your light. Homeowners in Nashville use consultations to settle on size, style and finishes and to avoid choices they later regret.

We bring samples of siding, roofing, trim and paint, pictures of similar buildings and a measuring wheel. We walk the property, sketch ideas, try layouts with stakes and discuss budgets openly. We note HOA or neighborhood design rules and show you how to use our design studio at home to try options before we meet again. The consultation is also a chance to ask every question you have been saving. How will the building look from the kitchen window? Where will the water go? What happens if the neighbors object? We bring ideas and examples, but we also listen, because you know how you live. When you leave, you will have a list of next steps, a rough sense of ranges and a clearer idea of the design.

How it works

Our process, start to finish.

  1. 01

    Call and share your idea

    You tell us what you want to build or fix, how you will use it and where it will sit, and we ask about the lot and your timing.

  2. 02

    Visit and measure the site

    We walk the lot, check slope, drainage, access, utilities and setbacks, and take photos and measurements.

  3. 03

    Review the plan and estimate

    You get a plain written estimate with the size, materials, foundation, finishes and schedule before anything is ordered.

  4. 04

    Prep the site

    We mark the layout, clear and level the area, set the foundation and arrange permits, delivery and utilities.

  5. 05

    Build and finish

    The frame, roof, siding, doors and windows go up, then the interior, power and trim are finished to the plan.

  6. 06

    Walk through and care

    We walk the finished building with you, leave a care guide and photos and make it easy to schedule a checkup.
