The intent of James Bourret Design Studio is to provide our clients with thorough, high quality services at reasonable rates. With thoughtful, forward thinking design as our highest priority, we know that thorough service, tailored to our clients needs, is essential for good quality and on-budget construction. James Bourret possesses the experience, ability, and commitment to provide hands-on and personal attention to your project, from feasibility and preliminary design through construction.

We strive to provide personal, highly individual design. To do this, we will listen, ask lots of questions and try to learn as much about your needs as possible. We will draw and present our design work so that you fully understand the design before it is built and can make informed choices. We will provide you with realistic estimates of probable cost, so that alternatives may be evaluated on the basis of cost as well as on design merit.

We provide thorough, clear construction documents for bidding and construction. Although we will tailor our services in this area to suit your needs and budget, our commitment is to provide complete, detailed drawings, which allow for accurate bidding. This helps to reduce problems during construction and yields higher quality work and, to your benefit, fewer unforeseen costs.

We pride ourselves on open, responsive communication throughout the entire design and construction process. Our work is not finished when the drawings are done. We stay involved through the construction process, to answer your questions and to solve, quickly and creatively, the unforeseen situations that can arise during construction. We consider the contractor and subcontractors to be our best allies in problem solving, not adversaries.
