How it works

Four steps, no surprises

Walkthrough

We visit the space, measure, and talk through what you actually want to change — and what it realistically costs.

Design & budget

You get drawings and a line-item budget with labor, materials, and allowances broken out. No lump-sum guessing.

Permit-ready documents

We assemble the drawing set and specifications your licensed contractor submits with the permit application, and we stay available as one point of contact for questions while the work is underway.

Final walkthrough

We walk the finished project with you against the drawings and document the punch list, so nothing gets missed at closeout.

Financing

Financing options for your project

Your project shouldn't wait on one lump sum. We partner with Enhancify so you can see real offers from their lending network before you commit to anything.

Soft pull to compare

Comparing offers is typically a soft inquiry. A lender runs a hard inquiry only when you choose a package to finalize.

2 minutes

That's how long the application takes. You see your offers right away.

2–3 business days

Typical time to funding once you accept an offer.

See your financing options

Offers may include unsecured personal loans and secured products such as a home equity line of credit, where your home is used as collateral. Rates start at 7.99% APR for qualified applicants and vary with credit. Funds arranged through this link are designated for SQ.1 Design Build's services. All financing is provided by Enhancify's lending partners, who make every lending decision and set every term. SQ.1 Design Build is not a lender, does not issue credit, and receives no part of your interest.
