Our Process
In four easy steps, let’s bring the heart back into your home!
Your home design and build experience will begin when you contact us and fill out our questionnaire—from there we will schedule an on-site or virtual consultation to get acquainted with your project location. We will then follow up with a design meeting to review your designs and plans. An experienced professional member of our team is happy to help bring the heart back into your home, curating a space that best represents your style and your family’s lifestyle. We strive to create purposeful and impactful design decisions and to implement them with the best quality products and contractors within your budget.

Our Guarantee
We help our clients select flooring, cabinets, hardware, stone, tile, plumbing, and lighting selections along with home decor to decorate your spaces all in-house, or with local business partners. Heart and Hammer Homes is a small-town Maine company with roots that matter. We chose to grow our business here in the Mount Washington Valley because we think it is important to support and give back to our community whenever we can.
To do this, we have established local working relationships with other flooring, tile, and similar companies to ours whenever possible. These relationships are incredibly important to us because they not only help us meet all of your product or service needs but also help other local businesses to expand and grow as well.
As a family-owned and operated business, we understand the importance of quality and trust, and we hope to be a local resource for not only your kitchen and bath remodeling products, but also for superior installation and service for years to come.
For design-only projects, we can provide materials to be shipped directly to you or we can provide a full specification list so that your contractor can purchase materials based on our designs. We are happy to help our clients select and coordinate work with local builders and installers to bring your design to life.
