EED Process
Ensured Ease Design: The EED Process Puts You In Control
Jodi developed the Ensured Ease Design Process (EED Process) to improve our clients new construction and remodeling experience. It puts our clients in control over their budget!
Without design support, almost 85% of all contracted home-building or remodel projects will go over budget by 20+%, and still fail to achieve the client’s vision! Whether it’s designing a space in your residence, working on a commercial project with contractors, or creating a vacation rental that will stand out, working with Elizabeth Erin Designs will extend your budget while achieving your goals. If you begin a project working off of contractor allowances, it is likely that portions of your budget will go to fixing mistakes, or towards overlooked upcharges due to miscommunication.
The EED Process | Guarantees Simple
"It's never too early... to involve your designer!"
From the floor plan to the color of the grout, Elizabeth Erin Designs will be there for you throughout your project. Let our expertise simplify your design process and elevate your outcome.
We provide you and your contractors with documents that support getting bids based on real products and designs instead of working off allowances. Having real bids allows you to make informed decisions about your selections and where to put your budget dollars based on what’s important to you BEFORE you purchase or sign off on selections.
Our EED Process ensures communication ease and saves you time and money by not having to use your contingency money – which can be used for furniture, window coverings, and accessories that make your new space rewarding sooner rather than later.
A Simple, Avoidable Mistake – with a Big Price Tag
Mandy, a busy mother of four, was excited to build and move into their new, modern home. What she didn’t expect was that the contractor’s standard agreement included a flat paint finish for the walls. The flat finish paint showed every little handprint from her active children during the walk-through. She decided to engage EED when she was well into the build process. Involving an interior designer at the beginning of the project would have saved Mandy $8,000 – which was the cost of repainting the interior with finishes that would easily hide scuff marks and little handprints.
If Elizabeth Erin Designs had been utilized from the start, Mandy’s story would have been about using extra funds for the extra special finishes or furniture, rather than a costly mistake. We delight in representing our clients’ best interests. We know how to maximize your design tastes while staying within your budget.
