Granny Flat Design & Construction Services in Thompson, CT

“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!!!”

“I have hired Haydenville Woodworking and Design twice. This gives an idea of how pleased I am with their work. They redid my master bathroom and the powder room. Each project came out better than I had hoped. Their construction work and their cabinetmaking are excellent. In addition, they were the most pleasant work people I have ever had around. The estimate was very clear and Lance explained all charges in detail. I would not consider using any other company. If you hire Haydenville you will be happy with your project.”

“WBA did my new roof, hardwood floors, plumbing, and other jobs in my renovation. The work was done quickly, professionally, and is beautiful. I would be happy to hire them again or recommend them for projects big and small. They were very helpful and understanding during the renovation loan process.”

“PBF Home Renovation & Design is an absolute gem! This past fall we hired Pam to take care of our small but mighty bathroom renovation. At 7 months pregnant I could not be bothered with any of the details nor did I have the time to even remotely think about how to get it done. After an initial meeting with Pam and her team, they set to work -- finding us the right resources, re-configuring the space, selecting and sourcing everything from floors to fixtures, color palettes and finishes, and most importantly working within my budget and timeline. Our next big project -- opening up the kitchen and downstairs of our home -- will definitely be handled by PBF!”

“We cannot imagine that any group could have done better in renovating our 1862-built home than Gary Streck CRM, Inc. They oversaw a top-to-bottom refitting of a home that was poorly lit, had knob-and-tube wiring, lacked central air conditioning, and had the original Victorian woodwork (which while beautiful showed the ravages of time). They had access to skilled artisans who brought care and imagination to the thousands of puzzles posed by making a house modern but preserving period detail. Bathrooms were remodeled, a state-of-the-art home theater was created, and a whole floor was reconstructed. Gary Streck CRM kept them on the job, on deadline, and within budget. Always professional and always setting the highest standards for any of the jobs performed. Thanks to them, we know that we live in an historic home but remain warm in the winter, cool in the summer, and well lit. The "Old World" level of craftmanship is evident in every room. It was quite an accomplishment for Gary Streck CRM and worthy of the Golden Prism Award for Best Historic Renovation in 2013.”

“My wife and I needed a kitchen renovation and we were referred to Bertola Custom Homes by a friend. Joe came to our house shortly after we contacted his company to provide us with an estimate. We had a general idea of what we wanted and that included removing two structural walls to open up our floor plan. The job was big and very complex, however Joe was able to design the alteration on the spot and 3 days after we met the walls were gone. Because the new design asked for a window relocation, we also had them repair some rotten woodwork on the exterior and paint the entire house. It was very impressive how quickly he managed to come up with drawings from an Engineer, the building permits and begin the work. Everything went very smoothly. The crew moved and protected the furniture as well as the floors. They were friendly, worked very hard, and the site was kept super clean at all times. We also liked the air filter that they provided. It helped to control all the dust from getting everywhere. The final product is amazing. Joe takes real pride of his work. We appreciate his professionalism, work ethic, honesty and positive attitude. It has been amazingly easy dealing with Joe and his team. All of them are super nice and fun to be around. We are extremely happy with all the work and are already on his busy schedule for remodeling four of our bathrooms in the fall. Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely wonderful, professional, competent, practical. Great problem solvers with solutions that are cost saving. They show up on time, call if they are going to be late or need to reschedule, have meticulous workmanship, clean up at the end of each day, finish on schedule and in budget. End result is totally satisfying. A joy to work with. We may purchase another property in order to be able to work with them again!”

“Design-Build: Renovating the Right Way When we first entertained the idea of remodeling our home we worked with an architect to help us figure out how we could make our house function better. We ended up with drawings and had no idea where to go next. During our search for a builder, we learned about design-build which provides one unified flow of work from initial concept through project completion. We engaged Integrity Development & Construction under a single contract to provide design and construction services. The collaborative relationship we built with Heidi, our designer, and Kyle, our Project Manager, during the design phase set the stage for a smooth and successful project. Heidi and Kyle were extremely patient with us, answering all of our questions and providing us with excellent advice and ultimately a great design that addressed our needs. We spent a good amount of time selecting tile, flooring, paint colors, plumbing fixtures, finishes, etc. that all went into the final scope of work which determined the bottom line contract cost. Because Integrity was responsible for both designing AND building the project, great attention was given to pricing and scheduling in the design phase. The costs of all aspects of the project were taken into account early on in the process; all fees, construction costs, finishes, etc. were accounted for in the contract and the cost would only change if we – the homeowners – made changes. On the first day of demolition, we were introduced to Bert who was our lead carpenter for the entire project. He was at our house every day during the entire renovation. Kyle, our project manager, checked in weekly to review any change orders or to discuss upcoming work that was to be done. Both Kyle and Bert were very responsive to any texts/emails we sent with questions or concerns. Any issues we had were addressed immediately and with perfect aplomb. We worked closely with the Integrity team with a shared goal of completing a successful project. We lived in our house during the entire 4 months of demo and construction. Everyone from Integrity was very respectful of our space leaving the house clean and tidy at the end of each workday. We had a great working relationship with Bert, our carpenter which was important as he arrived at our house at 7 AM each and every day. He was incredibly industrious and kept the project on track. At the end of the project when we looked at our new kitchen and two new bathrooms we felt like we were looking at a high-end design magazine. Attention had been paid to every little detail. And the budget stayed on track – no surprises! Strangely we missed all of our Integrity friends after the project was done. When we are ready for another project Integrity will definitely be our first call. Bottom Line: if you want your project to run smoothly, stay on budget, work with fun and interesting people, call Integrity.”

“Jason and his team are amazing, highly skilled professionals. With just a few improvements, our home has a completely updated look that fits our style. Jason's design and craftsmanship are the best!”

“.....the design services and construction that were provided by Avalon Design Concepts in our Family Room addition as well as Kitchen and Dining Room renovations exceeded our expectations. Erick and his subs were friendly, courteous and very professional throughout the entire process of the construction. Our project was completed in a somewhat “timely” manner with the expected delay of items we had special ordered that arrived in less than “acceptable” condition and had to be exchanged. My husband and I are ecstatic with the final product and absolutely recommend Erick and his company…….An excellent group of professionals to work with……”
