HOW WE WORK
Whether it’s a city condo or a large estate our goal is to leave each client’s home more clutter-free, calm and functional than ever before. With a kind approach, effective processes and a healthy dose of creativity we re-envision and maximize the function of any space.
Let’s transform your space with simple, maintainable organizing solutions, specifically tailored to your home and lifestyle.
“A dramatic reorganization of the home causes correspondingly dramatic changes in lifestyle and perspective. It is life transforming.” – Marie Kondo
OUR TRANSFORMATION PROCESS
01 Remove all items
It’s essential that we remove every item from the space that will be organized. Once the space is clear, we wipe down all drawers, shelves, and surfaces to ensure a clean, fresh slate.
02 Categorize & Joy Check
With everything removed and gathered in one place, we categorize and sort. We then work through the process of ‘Joy Checking’ to determine what to keep.
03 Donate & Discard
Through the process of ‘Joy Checking’, clients also determine what to let go of. This step can feel overwhelming at times. We provide gentle guidance and support while encouraging clients to envision the life and home they ultimately desire.
04 Develop Systems & Style
This is where our passion for organizing comes to life! We identify specific zones and customized solutions to suit your lifestyle. We source baskets, bins, containers and drawer dividers that provide a designated home for each item.
05 Maintain
There’s a psychology behind order and design. When things feel good and look good, we want to maintain them. Day by day, the action of putting things away in their proper place forms the habits that will sustain an organized home and a joyful life.
FAQ
What’s included in home organization?
The DECANTT process is completed in three core phases:
• Phase 1: Purge, sort and categorize
• Phase 2: Design and product sourcing
• Phase 3: Install
Depending on the project, phases take place in one session or over multiple days.
Do I need to be there for the whole process?
Not necessarily! You’re needed for Phase I (the purge) and once we’re clear about what’s staying and what’s going, we can take it from there.
I’m planning a move, can you help me?
Absolutely. We suggest beginning with a pre-move declutter so that you’re only moving the items you truly love and need – saving you time and money. We use an effective labelling system to ensure your belongings get where you want them. At your new home, we unpack, set up organizing solutions, and stock household items (as required), so you can settle in right away.
Do you source all the products you use?
Yes, we take care of all product sourcing, shopping and returns. We will discuss lifestyle in order to develop solutions that make sense for your life and budget.
I’m scared, what if I can’t maintain the organization?
Our primary goal is to create spaces that are functional and easy for the entire family to maintain. We implement solutions that are tailored to your lifestyle and when the project is complete, we share our proven maintenance tips. Of course, life can get busy and sometimes our clients’ homes need a refresh. We offer customized maintenance packages (quarterly, semi-annually, annually) to keep your space in tip-top shape year-round.
What do your services cost?
Clients are charged based on the scope of their project. Core services start with packages of 5 hours at $625 with the option to add additional hours on the same day of service. Product sourcing, custom labels and one donation drop-off (one car load) are complimentary. A detailed proposal with estimated labour and product investment will be provided. 50% of the proposal is required to secure your date(s). Our final invoice includes full scope of service including outstanding labour and products. Final payment is collected at the end of the session. Local sales tax is applied. We accept all major credit/debit cards and e-transfers.
