Kirill · Project management
Reviews the request, defines the proposal, coordinates the team, discusses progress and changes, and reviews the completed scope with you.
Austin-area remodeling
Our remodeling process.
A clear next step at every stage.
You should know what is included, what you need to choose and who is coordinating the work. Kirill stays involved from your first conversation through review of the finished scope.
From the first message
How your renovation moves forward.
- 01
Tell Kirill what you want to change
Send your city or ZIP code, the rooms involved, a few photos and any important timing. An approximate budget is helpful even if the material choices are still open. We discuss the fit and whether a walkthrough is the right next step.
- 02
Review the home and existing conditions
Walk through the affected spaces, access routes and visible repairs. Discuss the surfaces you want to keep, what needs removal and which decisions may need a specialist or more investigation.
- 03
Agree on the written scope
Review included work, exclusions, material responsibilities, specialist scopes, proposed stages and payment structure. Separate essential work from optional additions before agreeing the project.
- 04
Get ready for the start
Confirm access, protection, product availability, delivery responsibilities and applicable building approvals. Final selections should arrive in time for the stage that needs them.
- 05
Coordinate the work and decisions
Kirill organizes the team and sequence. When an added request or concealed condition changes the plan, discuss the scope, cost and timing before that additional work proceeds.
- 06
Review the result and remaining details
Walk the agreed scope together, check operation and finish details, record any punch-list items and agree the follow-up. Workmanship support follows the terms of your agreement.

Questions worth asking.
Do I need to choose every material before the first conversation?
No. Photos, priorities and an approximate budget are enough to start. The products and dimensions needed for an accurate proposal and installation are confirmed as the plan develops.
Do the sample documents set my contract terms?
No. These are simplified illustrations of scope and decision records. Your actual proposal and agreement define the work, payment stages, schedule, responsibilities and workmanship terms.
Who deals with permits and association approvals?
The need and responsible party are clarified before the affected work begins. Condo or apartment rules may cover access, hours, windows and debris. A building approval does not replace any permit or specialist requirement.
How do I request a change?
Tell Kirill before asking the crew to add work. Review the revised scope, cost and timing in writing so the team can work from one agreed plan.
