As an experienced designer at TJ Lords, I recently had the pleasure of meeting a new client who was interested in a single-story extension for their home. Our first meeting was exciting and provided the perfect opportunity to get familiar with their requirements and vision.

At first, I introduced myself and listened carefully as the client shared their specific needs and goals for the extension. They wanted to maximize the available space in their home by creating an addition that could function as a family room, a home office, and a guest bedroom. They had some ideas about the overall style they preferred, but were open to suggestions.

After assessing the client’s needs, I walked them through the design process and how I plan to approach the project. I emphasized the importance of working collaboratively to ensure their vision is brought to life with unmatched quality and attention to detail.

We then discussed their budget and deadlines, as well as any constraints or challenges that may arise during the project. I provided them with an estimated timeline and a rough estimate of the overall costs so they can be prepared to make informed decisions throughout the process.

Before we wrapped up our meeting, I emphasized the importance of regular communication throughout the project. I let the client know that I strive to make sure they are kept in the loop at every stage.

Overall, the meeting with the client was an opportunity to establish the foundation of mutual trust, respect, and collaboration that is essential for any successful construction project. At TJ Lords, we're committed to creating spaces that our clients will love for years to come, and I'm excited to make the client's dream extension a reality!
