F.A.Q.

Q. I have an idea for a project. What is the process for getting a quote?

A. The first thing to do is send us an email, or use the form on our contact page, to tell us a little bit about the project you have in mind. You can be as detailed as you wish, but the idea is just to give me a general sense of the project, which allows me to know what questions to ask next. This is also a great great time to send me any pictures you have saved for inspiration. This helps me get to know your style and see what you see.

At this point, I will review your information and contact you back to ask some further questions regarding the scope of your project and provide you with a rough estimate. This will usually be a range that accounts for different levels of building materials, with a low end and high end. The idea of this is just to make sure we are both in the same ballpark regarding the projects cost.

If both parties agree with the rough estimate, we will further discuss the details of your specific project such as, materials used, finishes, trim, & hardware. Some projects, such as built ins, may require an in person visit to your home to take proper measurements. Once we determine these details, I will be able to provide you with a detailed, final quote for your specific project. 

Q. How do you take payment?

A. I will typically email you a digital invoice that allows you to pay with a credit/debit card. Personal checks, Venmo, or Cash are also acceptable.

Q. When do I pay?

A. For the majority of projects, payments are split up into thirds. 1/3 payment is due upfront to cover material costs, 1/3 is due at an agreed upon midpoint, and the final 1/3 is due upon completion of the project.

For some smaller projects, we may only do 2 payments. 1/2 upfront with the other 1/2 due upon completion.

Q. Where the heck is Croton, Ohio?

A. Croton, officially known as Hartford, is just Northeast of Columbus, OH in between Johnstown & Centerburg. When the US Post Office began serving Ohio, there was already another Hartford, so for postal reasons, we became Croton. Confusing right?

Q. What is your service area?

A. We generally serve Franklin, Licking, Delaware, Knox, and Morrow counties. However, this is not a hard boundary. Generally speaking, if you are within an hour of Croton, OH I'll take on your project.
