Needs Assessment
1 hour
We will conduct a thorough on-site or virtual tour* of your home or office and create a customized action plan for your project. This initial consultation explores the underlying causes of disorganization, offers guidance on how to start restoring order, and proposes a project outline that includes a time estimate and schedule to keep the project manageable. Physical space, functionality and storage opportunities are also explored.
* Photographs of the space can be emailed.
