Very professional, good communication, competent and courteous workmen

The end result was great and beautiful. Only thing that could have been better was some communication during certain stages.

The project manager stayed in contact and the mobile app kept me updated as well. The quality of work was stellar.

Everything looks great and having watched the work progress, I could tell that the workmanship was very careful and thorough

We had a great experience with Design Builders. They truly did a fantastic job and their customer service was excellent. Any comment or issue we had was always well received and the response from Design Builders was "How can we make it right?". We'd definitely recommend them to anyone.

I had a bad experience similar to other low-raters. At first Design Builders seemed like a good firm to handle a big, complex deck rebuilding project. But after James initially estimated the project would be within our ballpark budget, he wrote a proposal that was nearly twice that much, and when I balked and asked him to explain, he hung up on me -- a very emotional move I've never seen from a professional businessman before. Moreover, during a proposal review session he attempted to charge me $250 for, he allotted only one hour's time for discussing the essential parts of the complex project, and spent the first two-thirds of the time insisting on talking about extras that we didn't even want, especially in light of the inflated price he proposed for the basic project. Overall, we'd warn you away from James because he overcharges and acts unprofessionally toward potential customers.

The project came in on time and the customer service was excellent.

The final product is well done and exactly what we wanted. The pricing is fair and Jamie provided helpful ideas and suggestions during the design process. However, there were a few things during the execution of the project that could have gone smoother and created some unneeded stress.

Thoroughly professionally work at all levels. Highly professional.

They were extremely responsive and do very good work in a timely manner.

The staff was very cooperative, and the workers were very efficient.

The quality of workmanship and care provided by Design Builders is unsurpassed.

Areas Of Satisfaction

Areas Of Satisfaction - We felt very comfortable with DB from the very first meeting we had with them, and they remained very professional throughout the entire process. The communication of everyone involved with our project was excellent. I was really impressed with the quality of work and attention to detail. The builders took great pride in their craft and approached our project like they were working on their own home. We were very, very pleased with that aspect.

DB is an excellent contractor. Every aspect of the process (pre-planning, rough-in, final inspection) was executed without a hitch. The project was completed early and on budget, which is almost unheard of. DB’s subs were equally professional. All-in-all, I would highly recommend DB, and, should the need arise, I would gladly hire them again.

Design Builders built us a very nice screened-in porch that morphed perfectly with our home.
