House Plans Services in Elizabethtown, PA

“We are writing to wholeheartedly recommend Timothy (Tim) Strosser of Studio 810 Design as a designer and general contractor for home improvement. In 2012, we met Tim at the Philadelphia Home Show, and were impressed by Tim’s portfolio of previous designs and building projects. On his first visit to our home in the Philadelphia suburbs Tim impressed us again with his instant understanding of our home improvement needs. We wanted to build a new bathroom in a little-used space that was attached to our master bedroom, but Tim suggested a much better solution; building an addition to the house’s second floor, and placing the bathroom in it. This way we got a fabulously looking new master bathroom that is an envy of our friends and neighbors, and avoided a mistake of building a bathroom that would be to small and not convenient. Timothy also designed and built for us a mudroom in front of our house, completely redesigned and rebuilt our patio, and changed the siding all around the house. We are very satisfied with the quality of his design and workmanship of his crew. Tim is a very experienced project manager, and he worked hard to accommodate our specific requirements during the project and to adjust all the logistics accordingly. He was able to keep the project deadlines despite very unfavorable weather conditions, the climax of which was Hurricane Sandy. During the project we occasionally changed our mind regarding some details (e.g., selection of tiles), and Tim was always ready to either accept our new ideas or, when they were not practical, offer very good alternatives. During the project we developed a trusting, friendly relationship with Timothy and many of his crew members. We were so satisfied with our collaboration with Tim that, after the first big project was completed, we tasked him with a couple of smaller projects in our house (e.g., staircase renovation), and outside (landscaping). We are sure that, with his great artistic taste, his extensive technical experience, and his understanding of individual clients’ characters and preferences, Timothy can exceed expectations of the most demanding clients. We already recommended the services of Studio 810 to our neighbors, and we recommend them to you.”

“very happy with the design of my master bath. I wanted a large shower and that is exactly what I got! Met with April and we discussed a few ideas and her design was spot on! They will design my other bathroom next year.”

“These contractors are some of the best around. They are responsive, reasonable and knowledgeable. I called with an urgent issue before a gusty thunderstorm and they were onsite within an hour!”

“We interviewed the top 4 or 5 builders in central PA and a clear winner emerged. As a result of an extensive process, we are currently working with Roland Builder on a custom home. They are incredibly professional and so wonderful to work with from the actual design of our home to the actual build. They have such amazing in house expertise with home design, site location and building a high quality home. Our project manager is on top of every aspect of this project - very detail-oriented and a great communicator. The office staff which includes members of the Roland family are warm and helpful. They are timely and responsive to our needs. This is our first time building a custom home and they are making it such a positive experience. We highly recommend Roland Builder.”

“This is my second home I've built with Costello Builders. The project was on-time and almost on budget. Great guys and wonderful neighbors.”

“These guys are top notch. They are always stretching the limits of good design. Great people to work for and get me in some really nice houses to work. I highly recommend them.”

“I had replacement windows installed. The work was done on time in the window they projected. The cost was as estimated. Work was done in a professional manner and my home was minimally disturbed. I would highly recommend their services.”

“Cliffeton is hands down the best house designer I’ve ever met. We remodeled her (entire) house in the borough of Camp Hill, and Whether it’s interior or exterior she has a vision that is difficult to perceive through my eyes (I’ve been doing this work for 30 years), and I think I’m pretty good at design and decor, but Cliffeton is in another world. One time there was a guy listening to Sammy Hagar play his guitar, once Sammy quit playing the guy was so impressed he said to Sammy, “Sammy, that was awesome, Eddie can’t play that tune as good as you just did”, Sammy turned and said, “not only can Eddie play that tune as good as I can, he can play it in 6 different languages!”. Eddie was that good. As far as I’m concerned Cliffeton is the Eddie VanHalen of the decorating/design world. Never met anyone with such vision, yet not objectionable to other opinions in fact listened and made a couple changes based on our workers suggestions, so she is also a listener. Total class act, consider hiring Cliffeton for your real estate or home renovation/remodeling projects. You won’t be disappointed!”

“Design Alternatives built my new house and did a fantastic job. The project lasted for 18 months and was very detail oriented with some unexpected problems along the way (including discovering our foundation needed to be built over an active spring and running into some complicated drainage work for the property). Design Alternatives made dealing with the problems very easy and they worked great with our architects. Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend them.”

“Southfen really knows historic restoration. They have the finest, experienced craftsmen, who respect the home and communicated with us every step of the way. Owner David Sutphen managed the project from start to finish and selected the right materials and team to complete it on time and on budget. They are truly the finest firm we have worked with for home restorations. We were so proud of the completed work, that we invited everyone from Southfen to our open house party to celebrate the completion.”
