Featured Reviews for Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

Lee Kimball

Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

January 31, 2013

“Lee Kimball did a single story addition and kitchen renovation to our historic home. They were fantastic. Very respectful of us, encouraged open and frequent communication, used excellent sub-contractors, were committed to finishing on time, and meticulous about finish work. It was a wonderful experience.”

The Curtice Group Inc

Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

December 7, 2018

“I'm happy to give Scott Curtice my strongest positive recommendation. Our project went quite smoothly, staying on schedule thanks to the fact that my office is in the house and Scott's commitment to providing a foreman. This enabled us to make decisions quickly and address problems promptly. Scott and his crew showed a lot of creativity in meeting our requirement to stay in the house during the renovation, to the extent of setting up a temporary kitchen and shower in the basement. In the end, we only had to be out of the house for about a week. He was also very good about coordinating with our architect and the cabinetmaker that we selected ourselves. Having heard a few horror stories of renovation cost overruns, I think we also did well in this respect. Our final figure was about 10% more than the initial estimate due to the kind of unforeseen issues that can be expected on any such project, along with a few changes that we ordered. The level of detail Scott provides in his constantly updated spreadsheet also helped us to make some decisions that reduced our cost.”

Morse Constructions

December 7, 2012

“Repaired a number of issues with the exterior of our house including rotted sofet and replaced the asphalt roof on our porch with a rubber roof (the roof was done by a sub I believe). The work was done int he time expected time frame and looks good. Workers were friendly and kept the work area's clean.”

Refined Renovations & Refined Home

Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

March 9, 2014

“Jim Buhrer of Refined Renovations offers incredible vision, efficient execution, and an exquisite design sense and attention to detail that is truly beyond compare. After listening to us talk about the many possibilities for our addition, Jim provided us focus and a fabulous concept for our new master bedroom suite. He collaborated with us and an architect to ensure a solid plan, and in a few short months, Jim and his team built the addition over our garage that blends as if it has always been a part of the house. While the entire Refined Renovations team was professional and efficient, it was Jim’s creativity and wonderful design sense that enabled us to realize our dream of a casually sophisticated sanctuary that is simply elegant.”

Charlie Allen Renovations, Inc.

Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

May 24, 2013

“We hired CAR to remodel a carriage house studio, and the experience could not have been better. CAR worked with us thoughtfully and carefully on our design, listened and responded to our needs, gave great guidance, offered numerous options along the way, and paid close attention to cost as we worked through the design phase. The contract was clear, and they were able to stick to the agreed-upon budget and the time frame. They kept us informed about the progress of the project, communicating as much detail as we were interested in hearing. They were prompt, respectful, and friendly, and their attention to detail was amazing--they noticed things I would never have noticed, and fixed them without being asked. No shortcuts or shoddy sub work allowed! And the final result? We love it. Embarrassing to say, it's a little too quiet around here now that the project is done. I'd hire them again in a minute. Five stars!”

Connolly Management Group, LLC

Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

February 11, 2014

“We've hired Connolly Management on multiple occasions to help run our residential rehabs. From landscaping to framing to trim work, they can do just about anything we throw at them. They are very professional, flexible, and we would highly recommend them to both homeowners and businesses that require superior property management and construction.”

New England Design & Construction

“We love our kitchen, bathroom and expanded kids bedroom. Dave and Cory really understood our style and our budget. I loved the communication especially the ever other weekly meeting to discuss questions and progress.”

PEGASUS Design-To-Build LLC

Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

April 24, 2013

“I have used other contractors in the past and can say that I have never had such a positive experience. The job was enormous- almost a complete house gut and I lived in my home while the work was going on- seven months ! Not Fun! But...... I arrived at the office for an interview with only my own scribbled plans. Jane spent a great deal of time understanding how I lived and then totally resigned my plans to reflect what I actually wanted- with many new and terrific ideas. Jeff and I discussed every change I wanted and what it would cost on a regular basis. There was unbelievable communication. I always received a call back from someone within an hour , even on weekends. The crew is lovely and they spent a lot of time screening off my living areas and cleaning up. Once I even changed my mind about a wall and some electrical work just as they finished it - and they redid it all on the spot - no problem. They have a set crew and I got to know them all. Living with them - they became like family. If I requested a particular carpenter for a particular job- he was sent. If they got behind the schedule , they would work on weekends and evenings to catch up. Mike is great and supervises every small thing. I would really like to thank them all. I especially would like to thank Jesse for all the extra little things he did to make my "life in construction" more comfortable. Reading this , it sounds like they paid me - but I definitely paid them:-) I still call if I think something is "funky" and they are over here right a way to take a look. The completed house is more beautiful than what I imagined and everyone seems to have taken great pride in their work. I would never use anyone else.”

ARS Construction

Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

March 28, 2016

“I cannot recommend ARS Construction highly enough. Among several projects they did for me, was a basement remodel in which they turned a plain space into a bar with an English pub feel. The workmanship was wonderful and the intention to detail incredible. No corners were cut and every effort was made to give us the very best work possible. It wasn't just craftsmanship, it was to a large degree artistic work, as well. They stayed within budget and on schedule, and were respectful and professional and courteous. I can't imagine planning another project in my home without calling ARS Construction first.”

Feinmann, Inc.

Medford, MA Design-Build Firms

August 10, 2012

“Feinmann remodeled my business as well as our home. Their work is top notch and they are a pleasure to work with. Everyone is highly skilled and polite. I have no hesitation in recommending them highly to my friends and acquaintances.”

When building a new house, people often turn to architects to kick off the project. However, a different model is becoming quite popular: design-build. Instead of dividing tasks between separate architecture and construction companies, you can hire a full-service Medford design-and-build company to complete your entire project, from initial sketches through final construction. Learn more about how to choose the right design-build pros in Medford, MA for your home project below:

What is a design-build firm?

Design-build firms take on the responsibilities of architects, contractors and construction companies, all under one roof. These full-service firms focus on a streamlined design-build process — from the initial design to the estimating phase to physical construction — in the hope of creating an efficient experience for both the client and the company. Because the entire project is happening within one company, Medford design-build firms are able to overlap the design and construction phases of the project, which often speeds up the project significantly. In addition, these firms work to minimize risks for the project owner through single-point responsibility contracts. However, depending on the firm, you may still want to contact an interior designer or architect to help create the exact look you want. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of design-build firms: Interior Designers & Decorators, Landscape Architects & Landscape Designers, Architects & Building Designers, Photographers.

Budget is obviously a determining factor in the outcome of your project. To make sure you stay within your means, consider making a must-have list and a wish list.
