The courses

Buy it the way you would build it

A course is one horizontal layer of brick. You lay them in order, and each one stands on its own — so you can stop after the first and still have something worth having.

COURSE ONE

The Walkthrough

I come to the house, measure the rooms, and go through what is and is not working with you. You get a written plan afterwards: layout changes, what to keep, what to replace, paint and finish directions, and the order to do it in.

  • On-site visit and full measure of the rooms in scope
  • A written plan you can execute yourself, at your own pace
  • Paint, finish and material directions with specific names
  • A buying order, so the money goes in the right place first

Best for: renters, anyone on a tight budget, and people who enjoy doing the work themselves but do not trust their own eye yet.

COURSE TWO

The Room

One room, designed properly and specified down to the last item. You get a layout that accounts for the doors, the windows and the way you actually use the space, and a list of real products you can buy.

  • Measured floor plan and furniture layout
  • Full specification — every piece, finish and fabric, with sources
  • Colour and material scheme with physical samples where it matters
  • A budget laid out by item, so nothing is a surprise
  • Support while you order and install

Best for: the one room that has never worked — usually a living room with a bad wall, or a bedroom that never got finished.

COURSE THREE

The Whole House

Several rooms, or all of them, worked as one scheme. This is the course where the house starts to hold together — where the hallway agrees with the living room and the whole place reads as one decision instead of six.

  • Everything in Course Two, across every room in scope
  • A single palette and material language for the whole house
  • Phasing, so you can spread the spend across months or years
  • Coordination with trades where the work needs them

Best for: a house you have just bought, or one you have lived in long enough to know exactly what is wrong with it.

THE BOND

The Fast BondFixed 30 days

A compressed, fixed-scope setup for a family that has just landed — usually a PCS move into Robins. Thirty days from boxes to a house that works. Different product, different clock.

How pricing works

Quoted per project, before anything starts

Every course is quoted as a flat fee once I know the rooms, the scope and the timeline — not hourly, and not as a percentage of what you spend on furniture. You will see the number before you commit to anything.

Furnishings, materials and any trade work are yours to buy directly, at whatever the actual price is. I do not mark them up.

Bring the room dimensions and a rough budget to the first conversation and you will get a real number quickly.

What you end up with

A specification, not a mood board

Every course ends in something you can act on: named products, named colours, real prices and an order to do it in.

Note

Every photograph on this site is licensed stock, used as reference for the kind of work described. None of them are completed White & Blue Bricks projects. The practice is new and would rather say so than imply a portfolio it has not built yet. The people shown are stock models, not clients.

Next step

Tell me about the room.

Send the dimensions, a couple of photos and what is not working. You will get a straight answer about which course fits and what it costs — not a pitch.
