Here at the Cabex group, we hold ourselves to the highest standards in the industry. We believe the process of design-build should be exciting and fun. We created a team of the area’s top designers and construction professionals. Remodeling is a passion here. The passion drives us and sets us apart from other companies here in the Sarasota, Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, Siesta Key, and Longboat Key areas. It’s the concierge service that we offer from the conception to the completion of a project that we feel is a top priority to enhance the remodeling experience. Here is what you can expect as one of our clients:
Cabex Consultation
At the consultation, the Cabex team will discuss multiple points of the project.
- Design Direction
- Time Frames
- Wants and Needs
- Budgets
- Expectations
- Our Processes
These are key questions that a design consultant needs to determine how to best approach the project. We find that some clients need direction when it comes to some of these questions. This is when we can help educate you and start the path to the design phase.
Design & Product Selection Process
Here at Cabex, we use the newest and best methods to provide a real design experience. Using 2020 and Chief Architect Design software, we produce high quality, 3D-colored renderings of the project. Elevation, floor plans, and permit drawings show all the details of your project from electrical layouts to appliance placement.
We find that the details on the front end help all parties to truly understand what takes place. We do product selections during this process by visiting our beautiful showroom as well as utilizing local vendors to find the perfect tiles, stone, fixtures, and appliances. While this may seem overwhelming, our design staff educates you on products as well as helps you make selections perfect for your space.
Explanation of Scope and Contract
We type up a detailed scope of work as to what we are doing during the construction phase. This includes detailed drawings, product placement, plumbing, and electrical maps, as well as a very clear picture of the project. Line by line, we spell these specs out to eliminate questions about what is and is not being done during your remodel. The contract acts as an extension of the detailed scope of work. We note your final cost and payment breakdown. We also sign warranty and waivers, as well as the projects selection sheets.
Cabex Construction Experience
We are heavy on the details up to this point so that all vendors and installers are clear on what will be done during construction. All the information we have gathered from day one will be reviewed and put into production. Permitted projects will be started and scheduled after the permit has been issued. We have established incredible relationships with our county and city officials. This process can take weeks (4-6 on average). We will have all of your selections and products onsite here at our warehouses prior to the start of construction. A meeting will be scheduled for our team of installers, project managers, and designers prior to the start of construction to gather any last details and to set an expectation on what the client can expect. You may be asked to empty cabinets and remove pictures or wall paintings that could be damaged during construction.
The Process Continued
Once all is here and ready, we place protection on floors and furniture as needed. The process of demolition and construction can be messy. We will do everything we can as to not disrupt your daily activities. There may be gaps in your installation for things such as permit inspections and glass and stone templating. We understand that this can be unpleasant, and we limit the disruption and keep the project on schedule. We assign you a Project Manager who will answer questions and update you on day to day activities. Trust the process and Cabex Construction to complete the project in a timely manner and with a high-quality finished project. Upon completion, your new space will be cleaned and “move-in ready.”
