I highly recommend them for projects ranging from "handyman" services to gut-rehab renovations. **Comment from PACE Design & Construction:** > Thank you so much for the recommendation. It's much appreciated. ### All 10 reviews **★★★★★ — Tom Burkert, Jan. 2025** > Pace did a great job doing a feel renovation on Capitol Hill. Very smooth design, permitting, and construction. Thank you Brad and Brian. **★★★★★ — Janet B, July 2023** > Did a fantastic job adding a 2nd full bathroom to a classic 100-year-old rowhouse. Very easy to work with, flexible and communicated well with the inevitable unexpected findings. Finished in the time they said and very transparent about costs throughout. Have already recommended them to multiple friends! **Comment from PACE Design & Construction:** > Thanks so much Janet. We're looking forward to the next project. **★★★★★ — aris tsoupros, April 2023** > I hired PACE Construction after chatting with a few other design/build firms. My initial concerns were a sinking floor (yikes!) but I knew that at the very least that the entire kitchen in my tiny, 115 year old row home needed to be renovated. The reason that I went with PACE was that they offered options from the very beginning. This ranged from selling the home as the "repair" to the floor was likely to be costly, to exploration to determine the exact cause of the sinking floor. After meeting with them several times and a small deposit to dig through the floor to see what was going on, we decided to renovate the entire first floor and the upstairs bath. By this time they had won my trust seeing as how Brad was not pushy on any one topic and continued to give me advice and suggestions, rather than a sales pitch. Their other hyper-local work and references helped too > > We've been in the house for 10 years and plan to stay for at least another 15, so a larger project addressing what seemed like endless issues made sense to us, especially with the trust that was built up along the way. Early on I met Khyree and Terris, two of the PACE professionals who were involved in the project from the demo, all the way until making sure the painters did the right touch ups. It was very reassuring chatting with them on a regular basis and asking them questions. They were more than willing to drop what they were doing whenever I popped in (which was often) to make sure I was good with everything going on. I was also regularly in contact with the project manager, Seth, who was quick to respond to emails, texts and phone calls. > > We went all in for this project and gutted the first floor. We replaced every major appliance, removed our radiators and installed central heating/cooling, and replaced our drafty and stuck windows. We got rid of our gas line and installed an electric water heater. Our electrical panel was upgraded and PACE also coordinated a solar panel install. Our 1.5 bathrooms were completely redone, as well as our kitchen cabinets and counters. We also added some simpler features that we've wanted like hose bibs in the front and rear of the house, a 240v outlet in the driveway, and also decided to repaint the front of the house. > > As we neared completion and saw that it was going to be on time, PACE helped design a shelf system to attach to our brick walls in our downstairs living room. They sealed the brick and brought in some reclaimed wooden joists for the shelves. The additional cost for this additional mini project was unbeatable and was really a great way to finish the project. > > The layout of the first floor has been changed quite a bit, and now I have more room, more light, and still plenty of cabinet space. I am so happy with the project. Now that it is over, I will be employing PACE to take care of a few more minor things, like door and lock repair, and adding on a storm door to the front of the house. **★★★★★ — lucaskent, March 2022** > We used PACE for a complete remodel of our 1954 Charles Goodman home in Hollin Hills, VA. Throughout the entire process, they were honest, professional, responsive, and had our best interests at heart. > > Over about 4-5 months they demolished and installed new floors, moved an interior wall, demolished our kitchen, installed new electrical, recessed lights, and painted the whole house. We were also battling an odd smell (old smoker) and the appearance of some asbestos, which they tackled with gusto. > > What else can I say? They did great work, were spot on the budget, and ended up finishing a couple of weeks ahead of schedule. When we do another project I would trust them to do it in a second. **Comment from PACE Design & Construction:** > Thanks so much for this review. Helping create you gallery space was a thrill for our team. **★★★★★ — Fotiu Architects PLLC, Feb. 2022** > I've had the privilege of working with Pace Construction on at least 7-8 projects, and have been thoroughly impressed. As an architect I have the opportunity to observe the work of several contractors - not just their built work, but their business practices and their customer service as well - and Pace has set themselves apart. They are certainly capable and skilled, adapting to meet challenges and producing quality built work, but it's their transparency and reliability that are truly unique. Brad Wilson is trustworthy and ethical, which is invaluable in any industry, but particularly in construction. I have recommended Brad and Pace numerous times, knowing that my clients, and any homeowner, would be in caring hands. **Comment from PACE Design & Construction:** > Thanks so much for sharing this. We cherish relationship with Fotiu Architects. We're truly proud of the projects we've completed and look forward to continuing our work together. **★★★★★ — HU-795243444, Jan. 2022** > I would highly recommend Pace Construction. They have always done a great job each time they have done work at our home. Always on time, worked hard to complete the project quickly, cleaned up and their employees are always professional. **Comment from PACE Design & Construction:** > Thank you so much for sharing this. Our team works hard to bring professionalism our work and it's great to get feedback affirming that effort. **★★★★★ — HU-434189030, Jan. 2022** > Seth Morrissey helped us through a great basement renovation experience. Quote was accurate, work was completed on time and looked amazing. Couldn’t ask for anything more in a contractor. **Comment from PACE Design & Construction:** > Thank you for posting this review and for specifically mentioning Seth's contribution. He's a key leader on our team it and it's great to hear that he provided a top notch experience for your basement renovation. **★★★★★ — Amy Oberhelman, Jan. 2022** > Brad and his team bring their years of construction experience prior to starting Pace. We did a full home renovation and I could not be more pleased with the outcome. They brought to bear expertise in maximizing the space we had in our Capitol Hill row house for our family. Thanks to them we have a forever home. In addition, I felt comfortable with his team being in my house - Jordan, Terris and Khyree are experts and lovely. **Comment from PACE Design & Construction:** > Thank you for posting this review and for mentioning a few of the key team members you enjoyed working with. It's truly meaningful to the team to hear this positive feedback. **★★★★★ — Cam Wilson, Jan. 2022** > PACE is a one of a kind design + build firm. I just can’t say enough good things about them! First off, they do great work and do it in a very transparent and fair way. The customer service is off the charts, the quality of their craftsmanship is incredible, and the overall experience of working with true professionals in the building and remodeling industry is so valuable to the success of a project. Between Seth, Jordan, Terris, Yuri, Brad and the rest of the crew, you won’t be sorry to have chosen this company for your next Project. Thanks for everything!! **Comment from PACE Design & Construction:** > Thanks for the kind words. Much appreciated. I know everyone on the team will be happy to see it. ## Selected projects - [Capitol Hill / Barney Circle Row Home with Cellar Apartment](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/capitol-hill-barney-circle-row-home-with-cellar-apartment-pj-vj~6796988) - Location: Washington, DC - Photos: 48 - Description: Major structural repairs with complete interior renovation - [Dupont Circle: 2 Story Addition with In Law Suite](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dupont-circle-2-story-addition-with-in-law-suite-pj-vj~6966634) - Location: Washington, DC - Photos: 10 - Description: Whole home rebuild with an addition - [Columbia Heights Kitchen and Bathrooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/columbia-heights-kitchen-and-bathrooms-pj-vj~6825260) - Location: Washington, DC - Photos: 13 - [NOMA Row Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/noma-row-home-pj-vj~6815821) - Location: Washington, DC - Photos: 28 - Description: Major structural repairs with complete interior renovation - [Capitol Hill SE Addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/capitol-hill-se-addition-pj-vj~6825253) - Location: Washington, DC - Photos: 18 - [Monument Ave. Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monument-ave-renovation-pj-vj~6825851) - Location: Richmond, VA - Photos: 34 - [Shaw Row Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/shaw-row-home-pj-vj~6796955) - Location: Washington, District of Columbia - Photos: 34 - Description: Major structural repairs with complete interior renovation - [Hollin Hills - Historic Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hollin-hills-historic-renovation-pj-vj~6825864) - Location: Hybla Valley, VA - Photos: 17 - [Mount Pleasant Bathroom Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mount-pleasant-bathroom-remodel-pj-vj~5428723) - Location: Washington, DC - Photos: 14 - Description: Single, full bath remodel in the Mount Pleasant neighbor of Washington, D.C. - [Capitol Hill Condo Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/capitol-hill-condo-remodel-pj-vj~7706890) - Location: Washington, DC - Photos: 6 - [NE Row Home Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ne-row-home-bathroom-pj-vj~7406845) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [SE Row Home Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/se-row-home-bathroom-pj-vj~7402061) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Silver Spring Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/silver-spring-home-pj-vj~7398030) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - [SE Row Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/se-row-home-pj-vj~7392175) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [NE DC Condo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ne-dc-condo-pj-vj~7381665) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Old Town Alexandria](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/old-town-alexandria-pj-vj~6999608) - Location: Alexandria, VA - Photos: 5 [See all 16 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/home-builders/pace-design-and-construction-pfvwus-pf~1009590637) ## Video - [Company video](https://player.vimeo.com/external/985329827.m3u8?s=b2e1556eb7c0ad3b99700bcafc24175de10fdb08&oauth2_token_id=1384357804) ## Ideabooks - [2853 Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/185471246/list/2853-bathroom) — 46 ideas - [145 Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/185365318/list/145-kitchen) — 11 ideas - [408 Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/184070577/list/408-kitchen) — 22 ideas - [214 Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/183844133/list/214-kitchen) — 44 ideas - [1227 Basement](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/183843686/list/1227-basement) — 12 ideas - [1702 Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/183781702/list/1702-kitchen) — 10 ideas - [1430 Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/183781694/list/1430-bathroom) — 14 ideas - [1430 Basement](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/183287827/list/1430-basement) — 7 ideas - [Bathroom - 1211](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/179773717/list/bathroom-1211) — 1 idea - [1200 Capitol St NE \#5](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/167821031/list/1200-capitol-st-ne-5) — 1 idea - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/97646785/list/wish-list) — 2 ideas - [PACE Design & Construction Studio/Workshop](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/164738644/list/pace-design-construction-studio-workshop) — 3 ideas - [Attorney's Office](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/113441668/list/attorney-s-office) — 16 ideas - [Info Graphics](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/154264108/list/info-graphics) — 4 ideas [See all 14 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/pacepros) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
