Embarking on a home remodel can be both exciting and overwhelming. The idea of turning your space into something that better reflects your needs and lifestyle is energizing—but the process can be full of unknowns. That’s why MOSS Building & Design is committed to building peace of mind for every homeowner we work with. Our customer-first approach and comprehensive remodeling process are designed to reduce stress and help you confidently step into your dream home.
1. Define Your Vision
Before any design decisions, be clear on your goals:
- What are your priorities? (e.g., more kitchen storage, spa-like bathroom, finished basement)
- What’s your lifestyle now—and what might it be in 5 years?
MOSS works with you to align your remodel with what matters most—now and in the future.
2. Identify Your Needs
List your:
- Must-haves (non-negotiables)
- Nice-to-haves (flexible features)
This helps with prioritizing and budgeting. MOSS helps customers clarify which updates truly support their everyday life.
3. Set a Smart Budget
Plan for:
- Materials, labor, and permits
- A 10–20% contingency fund
With MOSS Online, you’ll track your selections, costs, and approvals in one centralized platform to stay informed and in control.
4. Plan Your Project
Gather ideas and organize your thoughts:
- Use Pinterest, Houzz, and our MOSS 360 to visualize your design in 3D
- Tour showrooms, attend consultations, and save inspiration images
Our team makes this part exciting—not overwhelming.
5. Build a Realistic Timeline
Map out time for:
- Design & permitting
- Ordering materials
- Construction & installation
MOSS keeps your project moving efficiently, with regular updates and built-in flexibility for the unexpected.

8. Prep Your Home and Routine
Before construction starts:
- Clear out work zones and protect your belongings
- Arrange alternate living setups (e.g., temporary kitchen or bathroom solutions)
MOSS helps guide you through the logistics of minimizing disruption.
9. Expect the Unexpected
Stay grounded and flexible:
