Calgary Home Renovators | Taking on a full‑home renovation is an exciting but complex undertaking. At Renovations by Hearth & Home, we simplify this with a proven eight‑step process, designed to reduce surprises and keep projects on time and on budget.
1. Initial Consultation (1–2 weeks)
We start with a complementary, on‑site consultation where a renovation specialist reviews your home from both design and construction viewpoints. It’s an open conversation about your goals, needs, budget, and how to best realize your vision.
2. Design Contract (1–2 weeks)
Between the Initial Consultation and the Proposal, we encourage the Design Contract, which is where we measure and photograph the space(s) and then prepare the 3D designs. Once the tweaks to these are made, the proposal can be much more accurate.
3. Proposal (1–2 weeks)
Next, you’ll receive a detailed quote with itemized line items, providing full transparency. This forms the backbone of your project, everything from costs to timelines, and becomes the basis for the signed contract.

4. Design (2–4 weeks)
Once the contract is signed, our design team delivers 3D renderings to help you visualize layouts and finishes. This allows for real‑time adjustments before construction begins.
5. Material Selection (2–4 weeks)
Our design manager then guides you through selections, everything from flooring and cabinetry to lighting. We ensure all materials harmonize to create a cohesive and personalized result.
6. Execution (4–8 months)
With materials procured, our in‑house construction team (including framers, plumbers, electricians, and more) begins work. We also coordinate trusted trades to maintain quality and schedule integrity.
7. Finishings (2–4 weeks)
Post‑build, our design team helps you select finishing touches like furniture, window treatments, artwork, rugs, and accessories. We even offer installation and styling services for that designer‑finished look.
8. Post‑Project Support (ongoing)
We provide immediate follow‑up support, addressing any final issues to your total satisfaction. Our goal is for you to move in and start enjoying your home, completely finished and functional.

Why This Timeline Works for Calgary
Our process is built with local factors in mind:
- Calgary’s permit timelines and seasonal weather are integrated into realistic schedules.
- Bulk ordering and warehouse staging reduce material delays and help avoid cost escalations.
- From demolition to design‑driven selections, each phase aligns with our high standards and Calgary‑savvy expertise.
