How We Work
A Remodeling Process Built on Transparency
The biggest source of homeowner frustration isn't the end result — it's the process. Unclear timelines, surprise costs, disappearing contractors. ArtScape was built to be different. Here's exactly how we work, from the first call to the final walkthrough.
Free In-Home Consultation
We come to you. Our team visits your home to understand your vision, assess the space, and discuss scope, materials, and budget — with no pressure and no obligation. This is where we listen.
- Walk-through of the project area with your dedicated consultant
- Initial scope definition and feasibility discussion
- Honest budget range based on your goals
- Questions answered about timeline, process, and what to expect
Detailed Proposal & Design
Within a few business days, we provide a detailed written proposal with itemized scope, material specifications, timeline, and payment schedule. For larger projects, we offer 3D design previews so you can visualize the outcome before committing.
- Itemized written estimate with material specs
- Project timeline with key milestones
- Payment schedule tied to project phases
- 3D design preview available for qualifying projects
Contract & Material Selection
Once you approve the proposal, we sign a detailed contract and begin material selection. We guide you through cabinet styles, countertop options, tile selections, fixtures, and finishes — with recommendations based on your budget and aesthetic.
- Clear, detailed contract with full scope documentation
- Guided material selection process
- Material ordering and lead time management
- Permit applications filed on your behalf
Permit Approval & Scheduling
We manage all permitting with your local municipality — Atlanta, Buckhead, Sandy Springs, Marietta, or wherever your home is located. Once permits are approved and materials are secured, we schedule your project start date.
- All permits applied for and managed by ArtScape
- Inspection scheduling coordinated throughout the project
- Confirmed project start date communicated in writing
- Pre-construction walkthrough to align on logistics
Construction & Project Management
Your dedicated project manager oversees every phase of construction — coordinating trades, managing the schedule, and keeping you informed. We treat your home with respect: clean job sites daily, careful protection of unaffected areas, and professional conduct at all times.
- Dedicated project manager as your single point of contact
- Daily job site cleanup and protection of your belongings
- Regular progress updates and timeline communication
- Proactive communication if anything changes
- All inspections passed and documented
Final Walkthrough & Punch List
Before we call a project complete, we do a thorough final walkthrough together. Any punch list items are documented and completed promptly. We don't consider a project done until you're genuinely satisfied — not just satisfied enough.
- Detailed final walkthrough with the homeowner
- Punch list items completed within agreed timeline
- Final inspection sign-off
- Project documentation and warranty information provided
- Our team is available for questions after completion
Why It Matters
The ArtScape Difference
Most contractors follow a process — but few make it transparent. Our process is designed to protect you, reduce surprises, and deliver results you're genuinely proud of.
One Point of Contact
Your dedicated project manager handles everything — from subcontractor coordination to inspection scheduling. You always know who to call.
Permits on Every Job
We pull all required permits and manage all inspections. Your renovation is protected, documented, and done correctly.
Engineering-Backed Planning
Our founder's mechanical engineering background means structural decisions, load assessments, and project planning are done with precision — not guesswork.
Proactive Communication
We don't wait for you to ask — we update you. If something changes, you hear it from us first, not when you notice it yourself.
Clean Job Sites Daily
Your home is not a construction yard. We clean up every day, protect your belongings and unaffected areas, and treat your space with respect.
Done When You Say It's Done
We don't consider a project complete until the punch list is finished and you've signed off. We follow through.
Common Questions About Our Process
How soon can you start my project?
It depends on our current schedule and permitting timelines. Typically, from initial consultation to project start is 4–8 weeks for smaller projects and 6–12 weeks for larger renovations. We'll give you a realistic schedule during your consultation.
What if I want to make changes mid-project?
Changes happen — we handle them through a formal change order process. Any scope change is documented in writing with the associated cost and schedule impact before work proceeds. There are no surprise invoices.
Do I need to be home during construction?
Not necessarily. We can coordinate access with a key or code. However, we do require you to be available for key decision points and the final walkthrough. Your project manager will communicate clearly about when your presence is helpful or required.
What warranty do you provide on your work?
ArtScape Builders provides a workmanship warranty on all completed projects. The specific terms are outlined in your contract. We also pass through any applicable manufacturer warranties on materials and fixtures.
