This well respected design-build remodeling firm offers it all, from in house professional design service, to guaranteed high-quality installation as complete projects or in phases. There is one problem though. If you don't call them or email them soon, they might get booked out a bit far. That said, aren't all good things worth waiting for?

We used this company a few years ago to do an addition to our home. They were disorganized, over priced and the subcontractors they used were terrible. They had a very hard time sticking to the contract. The project was not completed on time. We went for weeks with no one on the job working. They were too busy working on the owner of the company's home. I hope they have improved their service over these past few years for the sake of those who are currently using this company. Look very closely at any referrals they suggest you call. I am pretty sure I am not the only one who felt the work they did was not worth the headache.

Karen Leman did my design. Wow! She is a mind reader. She is a visionary. She is amazing! The entire team that I worked with was incredible. The price is a little steep, but you absolutely get what you pay for!
