Site Planning Services in Bainbridge Island, WA

“A year ago they came out and gave up a really great quote on our idea for remodeling our home. They are very professional and even went as far as taking us to a few of their project homes to show us the quality of work and some past successes. We weren't able to move forward with the process but as soon as we can we will definitely be using Sockeye Home to assists us.”

“Crescent Builds did an outstanding job from start to finish of our project. They were sensitive to our needs and design preferences, stringent in their standards, rigorous in their project management - and transformed our house into a beautiful home.”

“I worked with Ben and his company on my rooftop deck. The project was amazing, from the first blueprint, to the planning and the execution of the build out, Ben is exceptionally talented. We have since done a couple more phases (additional lighting and back side of the deck build out), I don't have anybody come up on my rooftop without being blown away. I highly recommend London-i.”

“Concept builders did an amazing job twice for us. They are highly professional, honest, and would recommend them to anyone! We felt lucky to find them.”

“We demolished our 1950's rambler with daylight basement house down to the foundation and built a 2 story contemporary home. John incorporated our ideas into a unique design that fit our family. A year later we still have people stopping by our house asking where we got the materials and design. Like any big project, not everything went perfectly, but Axiom worked hard to correct any problems.”

“Karen designed a complete inside and out remodel of our 40+ year old 3400 sq-ft home on Bainbridge Island. She also hired and supervised the work of a group of outstanding subcontractors. The job was completed in a timely manner at on budget. Karen was great to work with. She listened to our ideas and then transformed them into plans that proved to be better than we hoped. We whole heartedly recommend her and she will get our call if we ever tackle this kind of project again.”

“Eric did an amazing job with my remodel! The hardwood floors came out excellent, and have become the focal point of my house. He also installed a french patio door that has completely improved the look of my dining room. He also hand built a mantel for my fireplace, that people constanly ask me where I purchased it! I have more work to do on the house, and Eric with Northwest Precision Remodeling will be my first choice of contractors.”

“Our project is the Columbia City remodel. Maltom, Inc. is highly recommended. They are a design/build firm, but we had most of our design work already done and they were able to bring the design to reality. Tom Lakomski is the owner and he has done a wonderful job managing the project, keeping to an aggressive schedule, working within our budget, and communicating with us on almost a daily basis. The project permitting got started in early February (2015), we moved out in March, and we moved back in early August. The team and sub-contractors were timely, professional, clean, and the work is impeccable. Remodeling is a daunting experience, and there were countless decisions to make and materials and labor are so expensive. But Tom was an incredible resource, understanding our budget and working with us to build a sleek, modern (transitional style), high quality house that we will be able to enjoy for decades to come. We would highly recommend Maltom with no reservations, and you can expect to get high quality work within your budget with clear communication and adherence to schedule. I will note that my husband and I have been extremely organized and very focused and clear about our design, scope, and budget - and this style has worked very well with Maltom. We have had only a few change orders (Cat 6 in the house instead of cat 5/canned lights in basement/nest thermometer/tile shower in guest bath instead of tub). Although our contract specifies a 12% change order fee, Tom had told us that the fee would be waived if the changes were discussed in advance and did not impact schedule or cause major changes etc. We have found that to be the case for all of our change orders (that the fee was waived). At the beginning of the project, Tom created a shared google calendar with us for all of the stages (permitting/demo/foundation/electrical/HVAC etc.), and also gave us written weekly progress reports and an ongoing task list. Tom understands that we are building our dream house, and often had suggestions about not only the infrastructure, but material finishes, fixtures, and modern design ideas. For example, one week he asked us how we wanted the front of the house to look (we are doing hardie board siding), and suggested that in the gable area people often add a contrasting shingle or shake to add interest. We ended up going with cedar shakes due to his suggestion, but truthfully we would not have even thought about it until all the hardie board was up. Just one example out of many that we have worked through - since we have not been working with an architect, his suggestions and advice have been invaluable. We moved back in on schedule, and had a walk through beforehand with punch list items. Everything was taken care of, and Tom followed up with us the day after we moved back in to make sure everything was wonderful. He also said he would be doing a complimentary 30 day, 90 day, and one-year check-in (and we had already paid our full contract). We had an open house a month after we moved in, and Tom came before to take care of about 10 small touch up items on our punch list. (Maltom also sent us a beautiful flower arrangement, and champagne!) We had one major issue when we had our first heavy rain after the summer and the oven hood leaked. It was quite alarming but Tom came out the next day to fix it. I'm not sure how we got so lucky to have such a responsive, efficient, and quality contractor, but we achieved a major remodel (added ~800 s.f., 1.5 bathrooms, new electrical, siding, gourmet kitchen, etc.) in less than 5 months - on budget and is our dream house that is more than we hoped for.”

“Lee Edwards is an innovative professional. He possesses the ability to incorporate traditional design/build methods with contemporary style and materials. His strong knowledge with computer drafting is reflected in his efficiency and productivity. As a builder, I find his plans easy to read, and well thought out.”

“Jeff Sellentin, the owner and architect, worked with us from the initial stages of developing what we wanted to do and how much we wanted to spend to coming up with a final plan that took both into account, and finally, construction. The goal was to add living space, an extra bedroom/office and revamp our entry. Prior to the addition (left side of the outdoor photo), our house looked like it stopped abruptly. With the addition it looks much better and we love the front porch. Our was a relatively small addition of 500sf that enabled us to create a completely open space on the main floor of our late 70s tri-level home (entry, dining, kitchen and living area). We wanted to work with someone who was flexible enough to allow us to do some of the work ourselves in order to cut down on the cost and Jeff was very accommodating. We hired Jeff to go from design through finished drywall and have been working on the rest ourselves (please note that the kitchen, which is not pictured, is still unfinished but that's on our to do list, not Jeff's!). We're very pleased with the results and have had lots of compliments from friends and family about how comfortable it feels. Like most construction projects, it took longer than expected, and cost a little more than expected, but it is well built and we expect to enjoy our new space for many years to come.”
