What to Expect When Remodeling your Home with Spears Design Build Group

We have remodeled homes across DeKalb County and Kane County, Illinois for 50 years. Part of our success comes from the detailed home remodeling process that we use for each project. This process allows us to communicate and collaborate with our clients from the start to the finish of their projects. Here’s what you can expect during your home remodeling project with Spears Design Build Group:

Our Process

1. In-home Vision Consultation

We begin with a thoughtful, in-person meeting at your home to understand how you live, what inspires you, and what you would like to change. From design styles and functional improvements to photos you may have saved from Pinterest or Instagram, we explore your vision in detail. We also discuss your budget so we can determine whether the project is a good fit. If we are aligned, we move forward with a design agreement.

2. Collaborative Design Experience

With your input as our guide, we create a customized design using advanced 3D rendering tools. In a follow-up meeting, often in our design suite, you can see your new space come to life on screen. We make real-time adjustments based on your feedback so the layout and details truly reflect your goals.

3. Personalized Selections Guidance

Choosing finishes and materials can feel overwhelming, but our team makes the process easier. We help you compare options such as countertop materials, flooring, cabinetry, and fixtures, always considering durability, beauty, and cost. Our goal is to ensure your selections are practical, stylish, and in harmony with your budget.

4. Detailed Scope and Budget Alignment

Once your selections are nearly complete, our building trades team conducts a thorough on-site walkthrough. This allows us to understand every detail of the project and prepare a precise estimate. The result is a scope of work and budget that align with your expectations.

5. Plan Finalization and Preparation

With the estimate in hand, we meet again to review the plan together. This step gives us the opportunity to identify any potential challenges and resolve them in advance. Careful planning ensures a smoother construction phase with fewer surprises.

6. Clear and Organized Construction Journey

When construction begins, you receive a clear timeline from start to finish. Throughout the process, our team maintains open communication, keeping you informed of progress and addressing your questions promptly. Our goal is to minimize disruption while delivering exceptional craftsmanship.

7. Final Walkthrough and Long-Term Assurance

At the end of the project, we guide you through a detailed final walkthrough. We confirm that everything meets your expectations before the project is considered complete. You also receive the peace of mind that comes with our two-year general service warranty, along with additional manufacturer warranties for many of the products we install.
