Our Clients
Working with Andrea and Chris Congleton on their home renovation was a truly rewarding experience.
Andrea, a dedicated flight attendant, and Chris, a small business owner, lead a bustling life with their twin teenage daughters. It was a pleasant surprise when Andrea discovered our services independently through a Google search, especially considering our existing professional relationship with Chris, whose garage door company has collaborated with us on previous projects.
As we delved into the project, we uncovered more shared connections—our children attend the same school, which fostered a deeper bond and mutual understanding. This connection transformed our professional relationship into a genuine friendship, making the collaboration even more enjoyable. Witnessing their satisfaction with the remodel was incredibly fulfilling. The Congletons are genuinely kind and down-to-earth individuals, and it was an honor to help enhance the functionality and beauty of their home to better suit their family's needs.
The Congletons had a clear vision for their renovation, focusing on updating the kitchen, mudroom, and bathroom within a strict budget. Their goal was to create a more functional and inviting space for their family and teenage daughters.

Challenges - Here's what happened and how we handled it
Managing construction during the holidays always comes with its challenges, especially when coordinating multiple trades and finalizing the construction schedule.
One of the most demanding aspects of this project was upgrading the electrical system, which required careful planning and execution. Installing the new hardwood floors also took a significant portion of the timeline—something that can easily be underestimated in a large-scale remodel, but plays a crucial role in the overall finish and flow of the space.
