WORK WITH US
We are currently partnering with clients only on Select projects. Please schedule a discovery call below if you are interested in learning more.
Step 1
No matter which design plan you choose, every process begins with a complimentary Discovery Call.
This phone call is 10-15 minutes in length and simply allows us to chat more about your needs and how we can help. Don’t feel like you have to bring every detail to us, it’s just have an informal conversation about your potential project and what you generally have in mind. We will also discuss our service offerings with you to decide which could be a fit. No obligation, no stress.
discovery call
"my house now has life& personality"
"John McClain Design tackled my entire house, from top to bottom. My house was a cookie-cutter 1980's suburban house, with little cohesion or style. My house now has life and personality. You cannot go wrong with this team, I truly believe John McClain Design is the absolute best in the business."
"John and his staff are wonderful"
"John and his staff are wonderful! I hired them to refresh my last home to improve chances of selling. I got a contract on it right away. Now I’m working with John to remodel the home I hope to purchase."
"showcase the best parts of our home"
"The team at John McClain Design worked with my family on our large scale home renovation. We purchased a home that was dated but had great potential. John and his team were able to showcase the best parts of our home while also redesigning spaces to speak to us aesthetically."
