“When we bought our 1300 square foot bungalow in 2004, we knew that a renovation was in our future. The house needed major updating and in 2006, we hired Architect Stephen Rhoads to help us with that renovation. We had interviewed another architect, as well as a designer, however, it was clear that Stephen Rhoads was the right architect for us. Stephen is extremely knowledgeable, and creative as well as being friendly. He listened carefully to our wish list, and must haves, took notes, and even drew sketches with some ideas as we spoke. Eventually, Stephen turned our 1960 outdated bungalow, into a 2200 square foot dream home. Our family room with a stone fireplace and plenty of natural light is an addition to the back of the house. Our new kitchen opens to the family room complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and track lighting. Stephen designed a second floor with a Master bedroom with a spa like bathroom, and a studio with natural light. We also wanted a front porch and back deck, and better curb appeal which Stephen accomplished. He also designed a fieldstone patio, a front and back blue stone walkway, and helped us with some drainage issues in the back yard. Stephen Rhoads was able to come up with the perfect design so that we could have it all, and as the project manager, Stephen was on site every day making sure that the builder was doing their best work. We had several upgrades and change orders along the way, and Stephen negotiated with the contractor to get us the best deal possible. He also helped us get great deals on granite counter tops, faucets, lighting fixtures, and everything else that we needed to buy. Stephen is a wonderful problem solver with construction expertise, knowledge, and familiarity with the local building codes and laws. We are very happy with our renovated home, and highly recommend Architect Stephen Rhoads for any upgrading or renovation project.”

“I have known Stephen Samuels of DES Home Renovations for over a year now, and I can say he is one of the most detail-oriented people I've ever worked with. He truly cares that everything comes out perfect, and it shows in his work. From writing proposals to explaining things to homeowners to completing the project, Stephen and his team go through painstaking detail to make sure all of the details are exactly how he and the homeowner want them. If you're looking for a quality remodeling contractor who pays attention to detail (and doesn't just use that phrase as a selling point), I recommend DES.”

“I have worked along side of John on many projects over the past 6 plus years. He is great to work with and very organized. Attention to every detail for the client is very important to John. If you are looking for home remodeling, trust John with your project.”

“Cody build a custom mid century’esk chicken coop for us. May not seem like a big deal but we aren’t a normal couple. This was a huge double coop with 2 separate runs on a mountain. Cody was a professional through and through. Came up w a design and went to work. It’s been over a year now and I hear the foxes every night and haven’t lost a hen yet. Plus it looks amazing!”

“Lasley Brahaney's crew did beautiful work on our new addition. They executed their tasks with skill and professionalism, handling all the details and keeping the stress level as low as possible. The workers were friendly, easy to talk to, and always willing to discuss any aspect of the project. Although our project was not a large one, the owner Marc took personal interest in making sure we were happy with all aspects of the work. We recommend Lasley Brahaney highly, and will definitely use them again if we have future construction projects.”

“Great quality work, knowledge of structure and design. All aspects of the project were estimated prior and the accounting by the company made for an easy understanding of the costs and payments due.”

“These guys hands down are one of the best contractors in bucks county and surrounding area. The 1st project they did for me was 4 years ago when I got my restaurant done with them in Philadelphia. They are very professional and finished the job within the time promised. A year ago I hired them again for another restaurant. It was a breeze. They worked within my budget to get it up and running without any setbacks. Andrew and his crew is amazing and very professional. If you need anything done don't hesitate to contact them. Any problems or projects I have, i am definitely giving them a call again. You should do the same!! Thanks guys.”

“Kurt Schlenbaker and his team are the best in the business. We have worked with them on many projects, from deep energy retrofit of an old warehouse to a new-construction passive house, and Kurt never disappoints. His attention to detail and craftsmanship, along with his clear communication and easiness to work with make him a go to design-builder for the projects we design.”

“Wilkes Architects and Princeton Design Guild were the perfect combination for my major renovation project. They listened to what I wanted, developed designs that specified all the details, then worked carefully to construct those designs delivering my family a home that we love. I really believe that the process of doing both the design and the construction with one firm resulted in a much better final product, with far less stress and drama than going with 2 different firms.”

“We hired Amiano & Son’s for our kitchen remodel and couldn’t have been happier. We met with other contractors during our planning stage and Amiano stood out from the rest from the very start. We knew from our first meeting with Joe, that we were going to go with him. We gave them ideas of what we were thinking along with our budget. They came back with a better plan and layout than what we had imagined. What we really loved about working with Amiano is that we told them our budget and they made every effort to show us options that would work for us. They didn’t present more expensive/elaborate options to entice us to spend more. They were just as focused as we were to stay on budget which removed any undue stress or disappointments. Amiano’s constant communication, craftsmanship and attention to detail was more than what we could have hoped. I would strongly recommend reaching out to Amiano for your next project.”
