We recently completed a renovation and addition for our home with Design Plus Construction. We are very pleased to have worked with Keith, Rob and Joann and their team of subcontractors. Prior to starting, Keith provided us with a very detailed budget, breaking down each part of the construction cost and also provided us a with a detailed project schedule. This was very helpful in helping us keep track of our cost and construction schedule. Keith was very responsive during the project and was always available to answer questions, whether it was from our architect or us. When we had a few additional work orders, we were pleased with how smooth and transparent the process was - their pricing was always reasonable and fair. Finally, even after the project was completed and we moved home, when we needed things fixed or corrected, Keith would quickly sort things out for us.

Design Plus Construction did the most amazing job on our home. We had a big project to renovate our basement and 1st floor. Throughout the process they were hardworking, professional and always kept to their timelines.
They were flexible and willing to accommodate new ideas and even new projects. No job was ever too big or too small for them to complete for us with care and integrity.
They are talented, they are respectful of their clients and they take great pride in their work. The workmanship in our home is simply impeccable! Besides all of their professionalism, they are nice people and great to work with.
I cannot say enough positive things about working with Keith, Rob and Joann. They truly are the best.
They know this business, they know how to make their customers happy and work tirelessly so that everything comes together...beautifully. It was a great experience and we are so very happy with the outcome.

Keith and DPCC have completed a number of projects for us -- major renovation to kitchen, upgrading bathroom and new garage + patio. We are extremely happy with each and every one of these projects, in particular, the quality of the work, the process, and the cost. Construction at our house is challenging as our house was build in the 1890s. However, Keith always effectively navigates these challenges, clearly communicates throughout the process, and actively involves us in important decisions. The most recently completed project was our garage and patio. This involved demolishing a small 80 year old single car garage and replacing it with a new 2-car, 2-story garage, in a different location in our yard, as well as constructing a patio in our backyard abutting the new garage. Keith was highly collaborative through the design phase and developed potential innovative solutions. Construction was delayed due to town rules around historical buildings, but ultimately addressed. The garage itself has exceeded our expectations, as it was sized just right and the 2nd floor provides great storage and functionality. The patio is awesome, Keith found the right hardscape team and effectively managed them, as a result we couldn't be happier with the result. In addition, with all the projects that Keith has done for us, if there are minor issues that arise after the job is complete (and there often are), Keith will address these rapidly and efficiently. In summary, Keith and DPCC has done tremendous work for us and we wouldn't consider using anyone else.

We used Design Plus for a basement renovation project. They finished a bedroom including a new window through the foundation wall, added a full bathroom, and framed, insulated, drywalled and plastered the basement perimeter.
Of the four quotes we received for the project, design plus had the most detailed breakdown of pricing and schedule. And even with a couple of surprises along the way, they finished on time.
The site was kept clean, and the staff were a pleasure to have around. Subcontractors did amazing work - blue board and plaster in particular were fast and had excellent results. When there was a question abput the right way to proceed to meet code, the more conservative choice was made, even when it meant more work.
I recommend Design Plus very highly and would not hesitate to use them again.

Design Plus Construction Corp. recently completed some projects around our home, consisting of installing attic pull down stairs, new deck, reconstructing our front entry steps and a safety window/second egress in our basement. I can not say enough about their team...their design sense, commitment to the project, work ethic and finished product are incredible. We were given an initial contract and schedule, which was discussed thoroughly together in a meeting, with subsequent updates as the projects progressed; both were adhered to accordingly. The owner checked in with us often and also met with us personally during the projects whenever I had a concern; he offered ideas and photos from previous projects, an architect to confirm/offer options for our personal needs for the deck space and his own expertise & knowledge; and extra equipment, trash pickup and products were used and delivered efficiently. The team was punctual, tidy, and left the work site as safe as possible at the end of each day. In all, it was an enjoyable and satisfying experience, their professionalism, vision, attention to detail, and concern for the customer's wishes, budget and property were outstanding!

Design Plus Construction renovated my master bedroom, bathroom and 2 other bathrooms in my house. They are a pleasure to work with, and completed the work on time and under budget. They accommodated several work order revisions along the way. Keith and his staff are very clear on communications and always went the extra mile. I am very satisfied with the results and recommend them highly!

Keith and Design Plus are the only general contractors we will ever use. We've had experiences with other contractors, who were all good, but Keith has been the perfect partner. Works with my style--I tend to be a control freak, and he deals accordingly by giving me deadlines and the freedom to work to them, which I love (e.g., you need to have the bath fixtures picked out by x date, if not, it will impact the schedule). If you'd rather have someone else take care of all the details, he can handle that, too. He's on top of the schedule and his budget estimates are realistic--no surprises. He's great value and great service.
We've done a kitchen remodel, basement finishing, bathroom remodel and exterior work (siding and patio).

Very professional and responsible company.
From the very start things were explained clearly and the budget was reasonable and never changed.
The workman showing up at the site were all very respectful and made sure that we stayed comfortable at home during the construction.

Keith and his team were excellent! We added a master suite above a pre-existing garage, one large and one small dormer to the existing house, and did a a gut remodel of the existing interior including baths and a kitchen. He created a small apartment within the house with a functioning temporary kitchen so we could live in the home during the project - saving us lots of money since we didn't have to rent an apartment. He was a great project manager. Keith was conscientious and transparent throughout the process and had people working everyday from beginning to end. We would certainly work with him again!

I have used Keith and his team for a kitchen renovation and are thrilled with the results. Before the start of our project Keith walked up through the process and the prospective timeline. Keith was meticulous in his planning and accounted for everything. There was a hiccup in the project but that was handled professionally with no real delay in the timing of the project. I would highly recommend Design Plus Construction.

I've worked with Keith Tower and his company, Design Plus Construction, on 3 projects. They all came off without a hitch so I turned to him immediately and without hesitation when project #4 presented itself. Integrity - Keith's clients can count on it in every aspect and at every step of the process. Keith is honest, on time, and on budget. He pays careful attention to detail and more importantly, to what his client is saying. The house I put into his hands was in desperate need of attention, and while we were undertaking a gut remodel of part of it, I was anxious that it not lose its character after 180 years of family ownership. That meant hiring a contractor who would listen to what I wanted rather than try to sell me on what other homeowners were doing. When it was over, I got my house back, same as it ever was and a thousand times better, just as I had asked. We then turned to the exterior where some of the porch posts had rotted in the salt air of the north shore. Keith scoured the area for the best mill and the best price; no stone was left unturned. An original post was removed, 9 copies fabricated and installed, and my porch made sturdier without losing authenticity. So after stunning success with 4 bathrooms, a remodeled ell, and a fortified porch, it's a no-brainer that I turn again to Design Plus Construction for my next project, and so should you!
