What to Expect When You Book a Free Design Consultation

Crafted for Connection. Built to Last.

Designing a custom dining table may feel overwhelming—especially if it’s your first time investing in something that’s made just for you. At Good Shepherd Design Co., we believe the process should be just as meaningful as the finished piece.

That’s why we offer a free design consultation—no pressure, no obligation—just a chance to explore ideas and see what’s possible.

Here’s what you can expect when you take the first step.

1. We Start with a Conversation, Not a Sales Pitch

We’re not here to sell you a table. We’re here to understand your space, your needs, and the vision you have for your home.

During your consultation, we’ll ask questions like:

  • How do you use your dining space?

  • How many people do you typically seat?

  • What woods, colors, or finishes do you love?

There’s no pressure to commit—just a conversation about what’s possible.

2. We Listen First—Then Offer Ideas

Whether you come with a Pinterest board or no idea where to start, we’ll guide you. You’ll get expert input on size, scale, style, wood species, finishes, and more.

We’ll also walk you through what’s possible based on your space, timeline, and budget.

3. You’ll See Real Examples of Past Builds

We’ll share examples of recent builds, both in-progress and completed. This helps you visualize proportions, leg styles, and finish tones in real-life settings—not just renderings.

You’ll walk away with clarity—not confusion.

4. You’ll Get a Custom Quote Based on Your Vision

After the consultation, we’ll build a custom quote based on your selections and timeline. There’s no cookie-cutter pricing here—only pricing based on your unique build.

And we’ll walk you through exactly what’s included:
✔ Premium North American hardwoods
✔ Handcrafted joinery
✔ White-glove delivery options
✔ Timeline and build slot availability

5. If You’re Ready, We Save Your Spot in the Build Queue

Custom work takes time—and every table is made by hand, from scratch. If you’re ready to move forward after your consultation, we’ll lock in your spot and begin the design drawings.

We’re currently booking for late August and early September builds. Booking your consult now ensures you stay ahead of the fall rush.
