Historic Building Conservation Companies in North Hills

“David's architectural and Ashley's design services are second to none. My wife and I started out with a big challenge for David (to turn the eyesore of the neighborhood into a place that we would be happy to call home), and he rose to the occasion and then some. The work product was second-to-none, and we keep coming back with new projects whenever we have a need. Ashley was a delight to work with as we gutted our living/dining/kitchen area, and she helped us create a space that our family loves to spend time in. The team at Lisle Architecture and Design is the best in town, and we can't recommend them highly enough!”

“We have worked with Dave for the better part of 25 years. We can always count on his professionalism, creativity and accuracy. Triangle Residential Deisgn has proven to be a leader in our community and thanks to his work, our company has won many local and national awards.'”

“I asked ETIN Design to completely re-do our home office and Bozhena Etin exceeded my (already high) expectations! She carefully listened to our functional needs, incorporated our aesthetic tastes, and designed an incredibly beautiful and elegant workspace. It is a joy to be in the office all day. I was impressed with her meticulous attention to detail, her professionalism, and her rapid response to our questions. If it were possible to award 6 stars, I would.”

“Mollie did an excellent job with my bathroom reno with walk in shower- she is thoughtful, smart, and creative. I truly enjoyed working with her. I cannot recommend her enough for your projects!!”

“Working with Toma Farren Architects was wonderful. Megan listened to our desires for our remodel, made adjustments to stay in our budget and was always available to answer questions during the work. We are over the moon with our final look of our kitchen and dining area. We feel we've moved into a new house with the new flow and access to our entire living space.”

“We have worked with Tony and his team for many years. The design/build process with our homeowners and Frazier Home Design is always flawless, as is the final product. Frazier really excels in space planning and exterior design and we would highly recommend working with them for a custom plan to fit your personality and your family's needs.”

“Sara at 4/1 designed a screen porch for our 1920s bungalow. The resulting design perfectly matches the house, down to the tiniest detail. During construction, Sara worked closely with the contractor to ensure correctness and was available to us for consultation on any and all details. In addition to being very skilled and very professional, she was a pleasure to work with. We thoroughly enjoyed the process and would work with her again in a heartbeat.

“Bret has been the architect on the renovation and addition of my home in a historic neighborhood. He has done a superior job communicating with me, the city planner and the contractor. He is easy to talk to and very responsive. He is trustworthy and responsible. He has had to do numerous drawings for me to get a Certificate of Appropriateness from the city. He has remained patient and calm in all matters. He is willing to take time to explain things to me, give me ideas, and improve upon my ideas. His fees are clearly established and his bills reflect clearly what is being paid for and why. I highly recommend Bret.”

“Sasha from BLOK Architecture did a fantastic job redesigning the back of our 1920s home and adding on a screened porch and a deck. The entire process, from conception, to ironing out the details, to ensuring that everything was constructed as planned, went very smoothly. Sasha took a lot of time to listen to and understand what we were trying to accomplish. He initially presented us with 3 different concepts and then worked closely with us fine tune the details of the design. In addition, given the location of the house in a historic district, we needed to maintain the historic nature of the house and neighborhood and fulfill the requirements of the historic commission. Sasha was well versed in all of this as was very evident both in the ease with which we received approval and the way his design meshed so well with the rest of the house. It was amazing to watch what had been useless, awkward space develop into a beautiful bathroom, library, and laundry room. Meanwhile the porch makes us feel like we are relaxing out in the woods rather than actually in the center of Durham. Sasha even devised a system to allow us to enclose the screened porch for cold weather at some point, while maintaining the porch as open as possible. We can’t thank Sasha enough. He was able to accomplish all of our goals while maintaining the historic nature of the house and staying within our budget. What we ended up with was a house way beyond our dreams. The design was excellent, communication was very easy, the costs were very fair and transparent, and the end results were perfect.”

“Our experience working with Reid was fantastic, from start to finish. He is thoughtful, professional, creative, intelligent, dedicated, hard working, trustworthy and a really good person all around. He will listen carefully to your ideas and needs for your project, has tons of good ideas of his own, is excellent with questions and advice and helping you navigate your way through any type of project. If we ever have a future project we will definitely work with him again, and I would strongly recommend him to anyone.”
