Ed was great to work with on our home renovation. He communicated with us on both staying within our budget and keeping within the style of the 1917 house. When you hire Ed, you are not only hiring his design and expertise, but his imaginative ideas as well. Lastly, Ed used my favorite phrase when working with a professional, "I'll take care of it", and he did!

We hired Ed to build our home eight years ago and there was no one else we would turn to when it was time to finish our basement this past year. Ed's vision and creativity is unsurpassed. He is able to view a space and create a plan that is unique and custom to each client. Ed ensures that every part of your project is completed to the highest degree of quality. He even helped us with paint colors, furniture selection and decorating, truly going above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the final product. For any kind of construction project, there is so one better than Ed Saloga Design Build!

We contracted Ed Saloga Design for a basement renovation. From beginning to end, Ed and his team were excellent to work with. They exceeded our expectations on every aspect. When you hire Ed, you are not only hiring an expert craftsman, builder and contractor, but also an interior designer and architect. He hires the best tradesmen in the business - all very talented, professional and respectful. He cares about all the little details of the project. He kept us informed and consulted us throughout the project, and had the right level of flexibility throughout for any potential changes along the way. And the trim craftsmanship in our basement is stunning. We are extremely happy with our basement and have received so many compliments. Our only regret is that the project is over and that we are not able to see Ed and his team on a daily basis. I hope we have the pleasure of working with Ed and his team again in the future. I wouldn't work with anyone else!

We contracted Ed Saloga Design Build to design and build our custom lakehouse and just completed the project. After meeting with several architect and design-build firms, once we met with Ed and saw some examples of his work we knew his vision of our project was on board with what we wanted. He was creative and excited to do some out of the box designs that we envisioned in order to create our new-old farmhouse. Throughout the process, Ed tweaked the designs to our requests and came up with ideas that we wouldn't have thought of based on his expertise. He was able to source some unique materials for various parts of the project to make them really stand out. The best part about Ed Saloga Design Build is the carpentry work. Ed and his team put so much care into their finish work and it shows. The level of craftsmanship in the carpentry work is superb, creating a home that looks stunning inside and out. Ed built several custom pieces for the home himself based on descriptions of what we were looking for and knew exactly what would work perfect for the space. We would definitely recommend Ed Saloga Design Build for a custom home project.

I have done construction for 13 years and I recently did a job at a ed saloga house . He is in tune with the homeowners and knows how to meet every need .The design and quality of his house is by far the best I have worked in. aAll of his trades are great at what they do and the team work is amazing. If you are looking for great quality work and solid construction this is where to go. I was pleased by the planning and organization.

A true craftsman! Ed's design talents are first class. He custom built a home for us in 2015 and from the initial drawings to completion he displayed a focused vision for our home and a pride in its construction that my wife and I really appreciated. Throughout our house he included unique features and design characteristics that make our home unique and customized to our wants and tastes. If your looking for a designer/builder for your new home I highly encourage you to sit down with Ed. You won't be disappointed!

Ed has a tremendous reputation in the area for building incredible homes. I have personally been inside Saloga built homes and have always been very impressed. From a Realtor perspective, I would always feel confident in the workmanship in a Saloga built home.

We contacted Ed Saloga Design Build to remodel our existing finished basement. We have friends that live in Ed Saloga homes so we were familiar with his work. Ed and his crew exceeded our expectations from design to construction. Ed’s detailed design expanded on our basic ideas. I agree with a previous reviewer that said Ed tactfully challenges you to think out of the box. I remember a room feature that going into the project we were convinced one way. Ed gave his ideas on it and we decide to run with it. Looking at it now, I can't believe we were thinking otherwise. Having someone with experience and talent was nice for us because we may like something but struggle to effectively implement it. Ed delivered that for us.
The entire process was stress free and we could not be happier with the results, especially with the woodworking detail. Ed’s work is top notch and we highly recommend.
