Below is a basic timeline of it would look like to work with us. Know that each project is unique and these are merely guideposts.

Explore (4 – 5 Weeks)

In the initial phase of the remodel, our team will collaborate with you to understand your vision for the project. We’ll review your budget, schedule, and any special features or design elements you want to include. Additionally, we’ll comprehensively evaluate your current space, including taking measurements and identifying any structural or design constraints that could affect the project. Furthermore, we’ll also look into research and inspiration gathering as well as any permits or zoning regulations that may be needed. Usually, the whole process takes 4 to 5 weeks, depending on the scope of work.

Meet with our sales team to discuss your project at your home.

You review our website, online reviews and pricing guide to make sure we are the right fit for your project.

You approve the proposal our sales team creates for you about your renovation.

For our clients who are interested in financing, we have several banks that we could recommend. If you would like more information, please reach out to us directly and we will put you in contact with one of our partners.

Design (8 – 12 Weeks)

Once we have a clear understanding of your needs and the constraints of your space, we will begin the design phase. It will include creating detailed floor plans, elevations, and 3D renderings to give you a clear idea of what the finished space will look like. We will work with you to select materials, finishes, and fixtures that fit within your budget and align with your desired aesthetic. We will also consider any necessary electrical, plumbing, and HVAC updates that are required.

Using sketches, architectural elevations and 3D rendering software, you will be able to review your design in several different ways.

Refine (3-5 Weeks)

During the refining phase, we will take the designs from the previous phase and make any necessary adjustments based on your feedback. It will include fine-tuning the layout, selecting specific materials, and finalizing any details to ensure the project meets your needs and expectations. Once you are satisfied with the final design, we will proceed to the permitting and zoning process to ensure that everything complies with local codes.

Your Designer will guide you through the process of choosing your ideal materials and finishes in our showroom in Bismarck so that you can see cabinets, tile, flooring, and paint all together to get a clear visual of how it will all look in your space.

Finally, you come to our office one last time and we present the final proposal. This includes a fixed-price bid with a very detailed scope of work.

We have an extremely low change order percentage and offer an initial outstanding product. If you are comfortable with what you see, we move to the build phase.

Build (10 – 28 Weeks)

With all the necessary approvals in place, we will begin the construction phase. It will include demoing any existing elements that need to be removed, framing and rough plumbing and electrical, and installing new finishes and fixtures. We will work closely with you throughout the build to ensure that the project is progressing as planned and to address any questions or concerns you may have.

Warranty Phase

Once the project is complete, the Roughrider team will conduct a final walk-through with you to ensure that everything is to your satisfaction. We will provide you with a warranty for our work, which will cover any issues that may arise within a certain period. We will also provide you with a list of maintenance and care instructions for your new space to ensure that it stays in great condition for years to come.
