Expert guidance for every stage of the work.
An offer ladder, not a menu of guesses. Start small, go deeper as it pays off — from a single Consultation to an ongoing retainer.
Tier One · Start Here
Start with a Consultation
One paid session is the front door to everything else — the fastest way to find out what you're really dealing with before anyone spends real money. The $125 is credited toward any larger engagement, so you never pay extra for starting small.
The Consultation
$125
One focused, paid session — the single front door to working together. Bring a bid, your plans, photos, a job site, or a business problem, and leave with a clear plan and honest answers. The $125 is credited toward any larger engagement, so it never costs you extra if the work grows.

Join the Interest ListHow It Works
Three steps, no runaround
Book the Consultation
Reserve a time and pay the $125 — that's the single front door, and it's credited toward anything larger. No free discovery call to schedule around.
Prep
Send your plans, photos, bid, or questions ahead of time so the session is spent on answers, not setup.
Deliver & scope
We meet, walk the work, or review the documents — you get clear recommendations in writing, and we scope any larger deliverable or retainer from there.
