“PARZ Designs is absolutely top-notch! They built a closet beneath our stairwell, which turned out beautifully. They painted two floors of our house and it looks great. And then, they remodeled our kitchen, which looks gorgeous! We have a small kitchen in a 100-year-old house, and they came up with ideas to add storage space that we couldn't have imagined before! We could not have had a better experience -- and we're already talking with them about a bathroom remodel for next year! They are professional, courteous, smart, extremely capable -- AWESOME!!! They set the price and stay on budget, but they are flexible if things change and you decide you want something a little different. As they work, they offer pertinent suggestions that enhance the project, and offer you vision and specifics on how to proceed. We couldn't be happier with the projects they've completed for us, and look forward to working with them in the future!”

“My experience with Gerry Hurley couldn't have been better. I was hoping for a serviceable bookshelf. Instead, I was given a unique and wonderful work of art which, besides fulfilling all my practical requirements, has become the aesthetic centerpiece of my living-room. Gerry is an old school craftsman with a thoroughly modern flair for design. He's fun, he's conscientious, he listens to his client, and he delivers on budget and on time. I'd give him extra stars if I could. Lynne McKelvey, NW Washington DC As an architectural photographer myself, I had the pleasure of watching Gerry design and complete two mounted bookshelves for our apartment. He is thorough, beginning with an extensive consultation on what we wanted, and how it would fit into our existing decor. His completed work shows that he is true craftsman who take great pride in his work. I would certainly recommend him highly to any client seeking custom-made projects for the home or office.

“Pete and his team have done extensive work on our house. There isn't a project they can't tackle and do great work! And most importantly, Pete is the most trustworthy contractor you will ever meet!”

“We met Tea some years ago when she completed a 3D rendering for a couple of pieces of furniture built for our small dining room. The job had been completed by two other people who then moved on to another business. We contacted Tea when we could not find an adequate replacement for a vanity and after learning that she has been working with her husband, we set up a time to meet. This meeting took place at the end of April. Tea and George came to our home and carefully listened to what we wanted, thoroughly reviewed our options and patiently addressed questions and concerns. It was challenging for us to adequately describe the piece we needed and George and Tea did a fabulous job of elucidating what they heard. George even drew a sketch to help us "see" the piece he thought we wanted. They then took careful measurements. We had no idea how expensive this piece of furniture would be and when George gave us an estimate of the "ideal" vanity, we were stunned. It was far more than we expected it to be. We asked for a price for a less intricate vanity and it was graciously provided. George and Tea exerted absolutely no pressure to opt for the higher priced piece. This was greatly appreciated. It was decided that Tea would do renderings of the simpler, less expensive vanity as well as drawings of the more elaborate vanity. We understood that the cost of the renderings would be absorbed by the cost of the vanity we ultimately chose and would not be covered should we decide to do nothing. This was very fair and the renderings proved just how fair this actually was. Tea emailed the renderings soon after our meeting and they were extremely lifelike. It allowed us to fully visualize the two different options. She also generously offered to answer any questions we had about specific details. Emails were always answered quickly and professionally. We ultimately decided to go with the more expensive option. We had been told that the piece would not be started until summer and were surprised when Tea emailed in early July to say it was just about to be completed. I had neglected to ask her to include one small detail, believing that the piece would not be ready until August, and she graciously agreed to add the detail as the piece was not entirely finished. We set up a date for delivery and as usual, Tea and George arrived on time. George kindly helped move the old vanity out of our bedroom before carrying the new piece upstairs. The rendering of this vanity was quite realistic but did not prepare us for the startling beauty of the actual piece of furniture. We were stunned when George removed the plastic! The vanity was a work of art! Not only was the piece a perfect match to our existing furniture, it addressed all that we wanted and reflected a superior degree of craftsmanship. George thought of small details to enhance the efficiency of the piece and to ensure its ease of use. Instead of simply gluing the mirror to the back panel with no concern for future issues, he installed a removable piece above the mirror so that it could be easily replaced should it become necessary to do so. This is just one example of his forethought and skill. After seeing the piece, we clearly understood the cost and believe it was an extremely fair price for what we have. Our experience was completely positive, from exchanges with this engaging, respectful and talented couple, to the finished product. We highly recommend them.”

“Donald & his crew were a pleasure to work with. They did everything they said they would do. The repairs were resourceful. They displayed knowledge & skill in several different areas from the roof down to the tile floor, inside & out. I especially appreciated their appreciation of an old house.”

“My favorite part about working with Bravo Designs was the advisement we received from the designer. When we first began the process we had no idea where to start but the designer walked us through every step and always made sure that our needs were met. The recommendations were perfect for our kitchen. We were able to receive a beautiful new kitchen at a very affordable price! They were excellent, clean, efficient, and timely! They did a great job!!!”
