Client Words
What homeowners say after the dust settles.
Doug was on-site nearly every day. The detail in our kitchen — the way the cabinetry meets the ceiling, the stone seams — you can see the architect's hand in every choice.
We interviewed three remodelers. Doug was the only one who actually drew our kitchen before quoting. We knew immediately we were in different hands.
Our primary bath turned out better than the renderings. After thirty years in this house, we finally have a bathroom we love coming home to.
