Construction Process New Trier

Here's How We Handle Projects

First, we meet at your property to understand exactly what you want accomplished. We measure, assess the existing conditions, and discuss your timeline and budget parameters. No generic estimates based on phone conversations.

Next, you receive a detailed written proposal that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline. Everything is spelled out so you know what you’re paying for and when each phase will be completed. No surprise change orders for things that should have been included from the start.

Once work begins, we maintain consistent communication about progress and any issues that come up. You’ll know who’s working in your home each day and what we’re accomplishing. We handle permits, inspections, and coordinate with utility companies when needed. Your job is to approve decisions, not manage the entire project.

Timeline depends on project scope and size, but most kitchen remodels take 3-6 weeks while bathroom renovations typically finish in 2-3 weeks. Room additions can take 6-12 weeks depending on complexity and permit approval timing. We provide realistic schedules upfront and stick to them. Weather can affect exterior work, but we plan around seasonal considerations. The key is having all materials ordered and delivered before work begins, which we coordinate in advance.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections with New Trier building officials. We know the local requirements and have established relationships with the inspection departments. Permit costs are included in your project estimate so there are no surprise fees. We schedule inspections at the appropriate stages and make sure everything passes before moving to the next phase. This keeps your project on schedule and ensures all work meets code requirements.
We stop work and explain the situation before proceeding with any additional repairs. You get photos of the problem area and a clear explanation of what needs to be fixed and why. We provide written estimates for additional work before starting anything beyond the original scope. Most experienced contractors can anticipate potential issues during the initial assessment, which is why thorough planning matters. We don’t use “discoveries” as opportunities to inflate project costs.
We use plastic sheeting and temporary walls to contain dust and debris in work areas. Drop cloths protect your floors and furniture from construction materials. Our crew removes shoes when entering finished areas of your home. We set up dedicated entry points when possible to minimize traffic through your living spaces. Daily cleanup is standard practice, not an extra service. Tools and materials get organized and secured at the end of each workday so your home remains functional.
Yes, Metanoia Construction carries full licensing and comprehensive insurance coverage including general liability and workers compensation. We provide certificates of insurance before starting any project. This protects you from liability if accidents occur on your property and ensures any damage gets properly covered. We also maintain bonding for larger projects when required. All our subcontractors carry their own insurance coverage as well, so you’re fully protected throughout the construction process.
Absolutely. We provide contact information for recent clients who have agreed to serve as references.
