Taylor Bryan Company
Design & Construction Firms in Essex, CT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 May 2012
“Taylor Bryan designed and built a major kitchen/half bath/mudroom renovation for our 1960's home. They were courteous, knowledgable, creative and wonderful to work with. They listened to our wants and needs and worked with us patiently to come to a design that satisfied both our wants in terms of space and our needs in term of a budget. They also were willing to help us envision a fourth bedroom addition that we will hopefully undertake in the near future. We needed to "see" the whole picture renovation before committing to the first-stage of the renovation and they were willing to do this with us. They also worked with us to figure out a solution of where to put the washer/dryer for we had to move it from its existing space on the first floor for the 1st stage of the renovation but weren't ready to put it where it will eventually go once the second stage of the renovation is complete. They began the project on time, finished on time and the price of the project was exactly the price we agreed upon (to the penny). We would recommend them for sure!!!”
Debra Geller Interior Design
Design & Construction Firms in Essex, CT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 January 2016
“I have worked with Debra Geller both for my own home and on multiple multi-family buildings my family operates. She decorated our home, she helped design a 3,000 s/f furnished basement build out, she helped rebuild 4 building lobbies after Superstorm Sandy. She is professional, responsive, and has an attention to detail that eliminates problems before they arise. Her ability to identify a customer’s tastes, illustrate it in a way they can imagine it, they execute all while coming in on budget and on time is second to none. Can’t recommend her services enough.”
Vital Habitats
Design & Construction Firms in Essex, CT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 February 2016
“As an architect I have worked with Vital Habitats on a variety of projects including renovations, additions and new houses. They are true professionals that make the process less stressful and enjoyable. Detailed pricing is provided before construction begins giving the architect and client an opportunity to make changes to adjust the design if necessary. Their expertise allows them to give insightful suggestions regarding construction details, wall assemblies, insulation, materials, etc. They are a team of talented individuals possessing great communication and management skills. Vital Habitats provides a superb service which brings the project, no matter the size, on time and on budget. I highly recommend them, you will be well cared for.”
Wolfworks Inc.
Design & Construction Firms in Essex, CT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 February 2016
“Wolfworks put an addition on my older home about 8 years ago. The work was of the highest quality and they listened to my ideas and presented theirs - it was an ideal combination. They stayed on schedule and did not vary from the original estimate. The site was always cleaned up and the staff was professional and experienced.”
New Fresh Homes, LLC
Design & Construction Firms in Essex, CT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 May 2017
“Very happy with work done in 2013 on second floor of house built in the early 1900's. Crew was respectful of the property and the fact that we lived in the house while under construction. We decided to rehire M L Murdy in 2017 for kitchen and living room remodel. Design plans are impressive, and utilization of space is maximized. Team is responsive to customer's needs, and communication is easy. We highly recommend this company!”

The attention to detail, and the creative excellence that is realized by the customer is fabulous. We would highly recommend their team to a prospect looking for that exceptional outdoor kitchen.”
Breakwater Renovation & Design LLC
Design & Construction Firms in Essex, CT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 November 2017
“Lisa and Fred are terrific. They have been on the job since May, and when finished will have done 4 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms (all to the studs) a den, a new coffered ceiling in the living room and replaced all the windows in the house. There is much more but the aforementioned tell you what you need to know. They pay attention to the smallest details. Lisa has thoughtful design ideas but encourages input from the homeowners. She is also very organized which keeps the job progressing at a good pace. Fred and his team are great and unfailingly polite and pleasant to deal with. The quality of their work is first rate. They are both pleasure to work with.”
Faros Design.Build.Remodel
Design & Construction Firms in Essex, CT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 June 2017
“We hired Faros to remodel our two bathrooms before our son was born this spring. We had a deadline and we were really counting on them to deliver on time - and they blew it out of the water. They show up, are incredibly communicative, and do a stellar job. I don't think any email ever even sat for a few hours unanswered! They are incredibly prompt, skilled, and they CARE. I think this story really exemplifies their level of professionalism: we were having my baby shower at our house and the bathroom still needed to be finished, but unfortunately, a huge snowstorm came and delayed almost every piece of the final installation. The owner and his son came to our house in the middle of the blizzard to finish the job. They wouldn't let it sit unfinished- they even shoveled our driveway to get it done on time! That's the kind of care I'm talking about - you'd be exceptionally lucky to have them work on your house. We look forward to working with them again and constantly recommend them to all of our friends.”

What does an Essex, CT design and construction company do?


When building or renovating in Essex, CT, people often turn to architects to kick off their project. However, a different model is becoming more popular with homeowners: design and construction, also known as design-build. Instead of hiring and dividing tasks between various professionals – e.g. architects, builders and carpenters – you can hire a design and construction firm to cover your entire project, from the initial sketches through to construction.

Companies that can carry out both design and construction take on the combined responsibilities of an architect, draftsman, construction company and additional contractors, providing one point of contact for homeowners. Having one entity responsible for the entire design and build, from estimation to subcontracting and even post-construction, streamlines and often speeds up the project significantly. Having a unified project team can also help you avoid unforeseen costs and delays in construction. In addition, the homeowner only has to interpret one contract with the design and construction firm, and not with various architectural design and contracting professionals. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or architect to help create the exact look you want.
