We were living in a rent house and had a short timeline, Alan was great about getting our plans turned around and ready.

Kent & Kent did an exceptional job. Alan Kent was thorough, professional and took my vision to create our dream home. We took my childhood home and without interupting the original look and floor plan, we kept the look and also wanted to keep with the integrity of our neighborhood as well. Kent & Kent understood my passion and helped preserve our family history of this home. We would hire Kent & Kent for future projects and refer his services to others as well.

Kent and Kent has been a partner to Fort Bend Habitat for Humanity for the past several years. The professionalism and outright hospitality of the Kent and Kent team is what makes this business so special and unique. Kent and Kent has designed and engineered our floor plans at a price point that continues to make our houses affordable to low income families. Fort Bend Habitat for Humanity is proud to work with Kent and Kent and looks forward to our continued partnership in the future!

So very impressed with Alan and his staff. We found him through word-of-mouth from friends of ours and couldn't be happier. He sat with me and made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it before the building began, and also added some final details for us at the end. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended. He helped and suggested ideas I never would have thought of for our remodel in 2016.

Kent and Kent are the best! They have completed several projects for me in the past. I have also referred them to a longtime friend and they did a fantastic job for them as well. I personally would not have anyone else handle any of my design projects. They are and will always be my "go to" team!

Kent and Kent did a fantastic job for us. After helping us work through the decision to remodel/add on or rebuild (we chose to rebuild), Alan worked with us to come up with a plan that met our needs and wants yet complied with the HOA restrictions. Alan was great to work with, had valuable suggestions, and was very accommodating when we had questions and changes. We've been in our new home a little more than a year and couldn't be happier with it. We would definitely use Kent and Kent again and have recommended them to friends. As a result they designed a remodel down the street that is currently under construction.

Kent & Kent is a company which has far exceed my expectations!!! They went out of their way to help me through their process and also help me greatly in many other areas which were not their responsibility. They were always on schedule or ahead of schedule and made themselves available for any question I could ask them. They consistently went the extra mile to get things done. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone needing their services!!!

I have used Kent & Kent on several outdoor living and homebuilding projects in the Houston area. As one of the largest outdoor living builders in the area (Texas Custom Patios), Allan has helped us out several times on projects that are very complex. Many of the projects on my site were assisted by Allan's design ideas. Can't say enough about the level of expertise and patience K&K brings to the table. I highly recommend them to anyone interested in bringing on a highly professional and experienced hands-on design firm.
