Our Services
Design
Whether it is the design of a single kitchen or your entire home, the balance of budget, personal style and the physical requirements of the space are the first step in creating something wonderful. You need a designer that listens carefully, who asks the right questions and understands that every budget is key.
Every budget, regardless of how large or small is finite and must be respected. Programming (the design development process) is an important first step in being certain that your needs will be addressed. There are countless designers that can make a space "pretty" but does that space really work? We can insure that it does. We look forward to hearing from you. Please Contact Us for any additional information you may require.
Renovations and Remodeling
Renovations can certainly bring some huge positive changes to your home. The process under the best of circumstances does disrupt day to day life in your home. To make things as painless as possible, The Ancon Group uses only carefully screened workers and sub-contractors that are careful to avoid the myriad of issues that can make a project difficult. Timely, careful execution of the work is just one part of what sets our teams apart. There is a big difference in the building trades that primarily perform new construction and those that work in the occupied homes of clients. Hiring a company that specializes in the renovation of existing homes is a critical first step. Professional direction of the team, clear communications with the Client and a commitment to provide the very best experience are all key. The Ancon Group even provides an online calendar that is constantly updated with your projects progress as well as indicating the schedule of upcoming work. You may preview a sample plan set created by The Ancon Group here.
Clients are very busy people so we make it simple for them to be informed. Timelines for the completion of your project are updated continuously. While it may be a job-site to the men and women who work there, it is your home and we treat it with the respect that you deserve. We invite you to experience the clear difference provided by The Ancon Group.
Consulting
The Ancon Group offers a full range of consulting services. Some clients simply need assistance in the evaluation of a home they are considering for purchase. "Can it be remodeled to suit us?" "Will it be a smart purchase?" "Is this the home for us or should we continue looking?" We can help. The intial purchase price is just the beginging. We can help you be sure that you are well informed with regard to design options and costs. Perhaps you wish to act as your own general contractor and need advice on scheduling or the appropriateness of bids. Or you may wish for a professional opinion regarding your material and color selections. We can help. We also have consulted on numerous "house flips".
We offer consultation in person, by phone or via the internet. We can answer general questions on our blog. Contact Us to submit your question or schedule a time to discuss your project and how we can help.

Plan, Design and Bid Review
Designers, contractors and homeowners each speak very different languages. Hyperbole and tech speak can leave a client feeling bewildered. We can translate it all for you and insure that you understand clearly where your project is headed.
Relocation
If you are moving to a new city and need to renovate your new home? We can design the project ourselves or help you find a designer in your new location. We can also pre-screen builders or general contractors and lead the selection interview process including the evaluation of references and inspecting prior work that the candidates have done. The move is stressful enough. We can help make it as simple and pleasant as possible.
