Planning Your Remodel
– Items to Consider

1. Determine what you really want in advance. What are your
   basic priorities and the goals your remodel? Then, write
   down your ultimate wishes.

2. Cut pictures from magazines and articles. Make notes
   and questions about various products and designs that you
   may be potentially interested in.

3. Determine a budget. This will decide what you can do and
   how you will go about doing it. Get familiar with
   current remodeling costs and the value of home improvements.

4. Consider financing for the project. If necessary, make
   inquiries with your mortgage broker, mortgage lender or
   credit union. Determine if you will pay for the improvements
   by cash, home improvement loan, home equity line of credit,
   re-finance, or taking out a second mortgage?

5. CALL Eberle Remodeling to make an appointment at

    details of the three phases to most remodeling projects,
        1) the Design Phase and Product Selection
        2) the Detailed Proposal for Construction Phase
        3) the Construction Phase.
    The ultimate goal of the Design Phase, Product Selection and
    Estimate Phase is to spell out all of the details of your project.
    We will discuss the value and need for each of these phases.

   with references and information about remodeling and the
   Design/Build process. The package will describe the process
   in greater detail and the rough time line needed to complete the
   3 phases of the process.

7. We may discuss ranges of costs for the project that you are
    considering.

8. We will then let you know what the next steps are.

What Happens During the Design & Estimate Phases?

1. In this phase we will spell out as many of the details as
    possible. Documenting the details, from the types of appliances,
   cabinets, countertops & windows, all the way down to the type
   of baseboards, cabinet door knobs or pulls, & grout color. We
   will get on paper what will happen in the design and what
   materials will be used.

2. A detailed written proposal for construction will accompany
   the design to attempt to clarify all of the pertinent details. The
   goal is to, as best as possible, reduce the costly change orders
   that frequently occur in the case of a poorly defined remodeling
   project.

After The Design & Estimate Are Completed - What Happens?

1. Once an agreement for construction of your project is signed,
    we can then move to the Construction Phase.

2. We will schedule a start date based on our production
    schedules.

4. We will communicate with you on a daily basis, through on-site
    visits, fax, phone or e-mail, whatever works best for you.

5. From the Design Phase to the completion of your project, your
   project will be receiving the attention to detail that it deserves.
