Our team is your team and we care about your home like it’s our home. Your dedicated designer and project manager will take care of your upgrade from start to finish. Communication is key and we make it easy. With an in-house team you get unlimited access to your designer’s creativity and project manager’s experience.
Rest assured your designer has a degree and your project manager has a builders license. Why do you need a licensed builder on your team?

Having worked together for years, proving exceptional service and workmanship, we are your team. Benefit from an engineer, quality control officer, certified trades and our collaboration with exceptional architects.

Stephen was born into the residential construction world, quite literally, as his father was still building their dream home and his mom was the designer. He grew up with blueprints and sketches in every room of his house. Stephen specializes in obtaining permits and knowing the details of regulations in each municipality. He knows what can and can’t be done… and how to turn can’t into can!
