What a kitchen remodeling project looks like here

Mesa is the third-largest city in Arizona and operates its own Development Services department — Phoenix permits do not apply, and Mesa's CR-1 / CR-2 residential zoning has different setback and lot-coverage rules than Phoenix R-1.

Because Mesa was historically platted around the LDS Mesa Temple (built 1927), the temple-adjacency design guidelines impose heightened review on any nearby parcel.

Mesa Historic Preservation overlays cover three downtown districts (West Second Street, Robson, Evergreen) — a smaller historic footprint than Phoenix but with comparable COA review.

Arcadia ranch kitchens, Biltmore Estates territorial remodels, downtown Phoenix bungalow guts — Phoenix PDD residential permit on MEP relocation. In Mesa specifically, 1940s-1990s ranch stock means kitchen remodeling scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
