HOW WE DELIVER
Experience Lagois' proven process.
From the first sketch to the final sweep, Lagois is your advocate.
I CONCEPTUAL DESIGN
At Lagois, our process is as personal as your home and as unique as your lifestyle. We begin by truly listening, asking the right questions to understand your vision, priorities, and how you live day to day. Every project is guided by thoughtful communication and tailored design solutions that support your family's needs now and into the future.
- examine existing conditions
- conduct a needs discovery
- develop conceptual designs to visually represent the solutions presented
- conduct a whole-home renovation impact assessment
- establish project scope and specifications
- provide an opinion of your investment at each design review
II DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
For your peace of mind, and with our commitment to be on time and on budget, this is where all the finishes are selected inside and out. In this phase, our interior design team guides you every step of the way with the selection of materials and products, to ensure every detail is perfect and aligns with the vision. We guide this process chronologically so it is not overwhelming. Lagois takes care of all permits and construction documentation on your behalf.
- secure all permits
- commit to a timeline
- confirm design assumptions
- finalize interior design and all product selections
- conduct a "job showing" with all key trade partners to assess existing conditions, and to eliminate surprises as much as possible before construction starts
- finalize investment costs
- formalize the construction schedule and agreement
III CONSTRUCTION
When planning is complete, it's time to build! Lagois oversees your project from start to finish. We keep your site clean and organized so you and your family can safely go on with your daily routine. Your production manager oversees all Lagois projects to ensure resources are available and conflicts are avoided. Your dedicated site supervisor deals with your specific project scheduling and quality control on-site daily.
- all aspects of the project including inspections
- proof of insurance and proof of ministry of labour compliance of all trade partners
- the beginning of and total oversight of all construction
- health and safety requirements
- regularly scheduled meetings and reviews with you and your site supervisor, including progress, scheduling, and financial reports
