Undertaking a home remodel is a significant step, and if you haven’t gone through it before, it’s normal to have many questions about what to expect. Remodeling is an exciting project that can transform your home, but it also requires careful planning, decision-making, and coordination. Here, we’ll break down the process so you know exactly what to expect as you embark on your remodeling journey.
At Sanrad Design Inc., we believe in keeping the remodeling process clear and straightforward. Our approach is focused on providing clarity, ensuring every step is handled with care and precision. The process can be broken down into three main phases: Design, Planning, and Construction.
The first phase is the foundation of the project—this is when we translate your ideas into a tangible design. Our goal is to understand your vision for your home, taking into account your preferences, lifestyle, and budget.
This phase typically takes 2-3 months, depending on how quickly decisions are made and the complexity of your project.
Once the design is finalized, we move to the planning and approval phase. This stage involves turning the design into a set of detailed plans that can be executed during the construction phase. You’ll make final selections for materials, finishes, and fixtures, and we’ll handle the rest.
This phase typically takes 2-3 months, but the timeline can vary depending on the complexity of your project.
Once everything is planned and approved, we begin the construction phase. This is when the vision you’ve discussed and designed comes to life. Our team will take care of every aspect of the remodel, ensuring everything is completed with precision.
While we manage every part of the process, there are some things you can do to help ensure a smooth remodeling experience:
From the start, be clear about your goals, preferences, and budget. Regular communication during each phase ensures the project stays on track.
Remodeling often brings unexpected challenges, but we’re here to handle them. Flexibility is key, and we’ll work with you to make necessary adjustments while keeping the project on schedule.
Although we handle all the hard work, staying involved and making timely decisions will help keep the project moving forward smoothly.

I am amazed at the work that Greg and his team do! Greg was wonderful to work with. He is knowledgeable about things that work. He takes time to explain things and going shopping with him was a wonderful experience because he knows what works and is able to suggest items that will look good in your bathroom – my only regret is that I had shopped for my bathroom items before I met him. However he still made the whole design work. A huge shoutout to Wjotek for doing the work. I’ve never seen someone so detail oriented and so meticulous in their work. I would recommend Sanrad Design and Greg to anyone looking to remodel their bathrooms. Just don’t go shopping first before you meet Greg!

Wow, wow, wow! I was beyond thrilled with the entire process of remodeling my bathroom from start to finish. In fact, the experience was so fantastic that I decided to have my second bathroom (kids? bathroom) remodeled after completing my primary bathroom. I cannot recommend Sanrad Design, especially Greg and Wojtek, enough. They were so professional, communicative, helpful, friendly, detail-oriented, and reasonably priced. (I was able to get two bathrooms done for what other companies quoted me for one!) Both bathrooms turned out so beautifully? I feel like I am in a spa every shower I take and my children have never wanted to take as many baths/showers as they do now. Highly, highly recommend!

We recently had a bathroom remodel done by Sanrad Designs. They transformed our outdated space into a modern bathroom. We love the new look and the shower is absolutely stunning. Greg walked us through every detail and Vojtek did an amazing job. We are thrilled with the results and would definitely recommend them to others.
