Dolphin Architects & Builders, Inc.
New & Custom Home Builders in Kiawah Island
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 25, 2015
“We have engaged Dolphin to design and build our dream home on Kiawah Island, SC. We are currently half way through construction. So far we are very pleased with the services provided by Dolphin. We worked with Noel over a prolonged design period (our choosing) - she had great patience and constructive input on design for our unusual plot. Dolphin drove the ARB approval process which was ultimately quite painless (we had expected this to be much more difficult). Prior to breaking ground, we started work with Catherine Anne on the endless decisions (everything from kitchen appliances and faucets to hardware and tiling). Catherine Anne made the whole process easy and and kept us on track. Once construction started, the Dolphin team kept us updatd regularly (important as we live in the North East and have only been on site 3-4 times during construction. Overall - so far very happy that we engaged Dolphin - we purposefully chose a design / build company and would highly recommend this experienced team.”

“Dan and his team at Stono Construction will take great care to build you a quality house. I've heard nothing but praises from our mutual client. The words, "on time" and "on budget" do not come easily in this field, so when it was mentioned I knew this match was a huge success for my client.
