Detailed Answer
Absolutely! I love working with ongoing construction projects. There's something exciting about seeing a space transform from studs to a stunning finished home. The key is getting me involved early so I can coordinate with your contractor and plan around the construction schedule.
Early Collaboration Works Best
The earlier you bring me in, the smoother everything goes. I can help with finish selections, built-in designs, and electrical planning that affects furniture placement. This prevents having to make expensive changes later in the process.
Contractor Coordination
I work directly with your builder to make sure design elements get installed at the right time. Things like built-in lighting, custom millwork, and specialty finishes need to happen at specific points in construction. I know the sequence and can keep everyone on track.
Flexible Scheduling
Construction schedules change, and I plan for that. I order items with lead times that match your projected completion dates, but I stay flexible when timelines shift. It's part of working with construction projects.
Material Selection Timing
I help you make material decisions at the right points in construction. Flooring, paint colors, and fixture selections all have deadlines that affect construction progress. I make sure you're ready when your contractor needs those decisions.
Final Installation Coordination
When construction is nearly complete, I coordinate the delivery and installation of furniture, window treatments, and decor. This prevents damage from ongoing work and ensures everything arrives when the space is ready.
Move-In Ready Results
My goal is having your space completely finished and move-in ready the day construction wraps up. No waiting weeks for furniture deliveries or scrambling to make design decisions after you've already moved in.
