Common questions
Most projects range from 6-16 weeks depending on scope. We provide a clear detailed timeline upfront so you know exactly what to expect and what we can’t know until we start.
We keep you in the loop with regular updates. If costs shift, we'll talk through options before making any changes. It is always good practice to ensure you have contingency planned with any budget as there can be unknowns and we discuss this with you from the outset.
We're flexible with timing and can work around your needs where possible. Just let us know what works best.
