### All 8 reviews

**★★★★★ — Leah LaPoint, May 2023**

> They were amazing. They took out the old staircase to the basement out, put in the new one, and cleaned up. They were in and out in no time. I was even amazed at how well they cleaned up after themselves.

**★★★★★ — Dennis Mohritz, March 2017**

> I have used Distintive Design for many years on big and small projects. I feel very fortunate they are available to me as you can not find more talented, experienced craftsman that are a pleasure to deal with as they are.

**★★★★★ — JoBecks Custom Designs, Feb. 2017**

> I have dealt with Distinctive Design for 10 + years. They have made solid wood doors, supplied custom milled wood, and moldings. Once I went in there to see if they had a certain type of trim, but they did not. So Mike looked thru all there knives, and made me the trim in a matter on minutes. For wood, moldings, etc.. this place is one stop shopping.

**★★★★★ — Amanda Criswell, Feb. 2017**

> My company has contracted with Distinctive Design for over 10 years.Their attention to detail,professionalism and on time delivery are just some of the reasons we continue to work with.

**★★★★★ — Colleen Farrell Design, LLC, Feb. 2017**

> It is with confidence that we refer clients to Distinctive Design.  They consistently produce quality, detailed millwork while meeting or surpassing expectations. Their approach is collaborative, insightful and comfortable for the client as well as for those involved in the building process.

**★★★★★ — Kevin Knisely, Feb. 2017**

> Outstanding craftsmanship and attention to detail. On time and committed. Great value!! I have used Distinctive Design for several other past projects and would offer my highest regard to their commitment and quality of work.

**★★★★★ — Diane Kangas, Feb. 2017**

> Distinctive Design just finished four beautiful custom transom windows and some smaller windows for us. They turned out beautiful. After I paint and install them I will post so you can all see!

**★★★★★ — Jennifer Lundy, Feb. 2017**

> We built our house and Distinctive Design designed and installed all of our trim in the house including doors and the staircases.   I asked for simple yet classic looks and that is exactly what I got.   We have lived in our house for over 14 years now and the work is still classic looking and without any flaws.  We never had to go back and get any of their work corrected or repaired.

> These guys really do quality work.
