Get matched with top residential design pros in Chantilly, VA

"In short, things went GREAT, and I can whole-heartedly recommend Thomas Custom Builders (TCB), which is a "design-build" firm. Here's how things went: Firstly, expect that they have a backlog, and it may take a while to get to your project - probably because their reputation proceeds them. It took nearly 9 months between when we started with them on scoping our our project to when we broke ground, however we ended up with a design that worked. Through that phase, we worked with TCB on what goals we wanted to achieve, and what our budget was, and they designed to achieve as much of our goals within our budget. During construction, TCB promised to have a foreman who spoke fluent English on-site every day, and they delivered on that. This stood in pretty stark contrast with some of my previous contracting experiences, where the project could languish without seeing anyone come to the site. With TCB, the project always moved forward - sometimes it moved rapidly, with multiple trades on-site - sometimes it moved moderately, with the foreman and a couple helpers - and sometimes it was just the foreman handling things himself - but it always moved. TCB also is the kind of company that won't nickle and dime you. If something small is missed in the project scope that is needed to really complete the project, they'll do it. Don't expect them to shell out thousands of dollars in that respect - that would be a change order (which I had one) - but at the end of the day, I very much got the impression that they really took pride in their work and wanted me to be happy with the end result, which I am. TCB estimated the job would take between 3 to 4.5 months, and they completed in 4 months. I had one change order to connect my concrete/flagstone walkway to my stairs, which we had missed in the scope and was too big of a cost for TCB to absorb ($2.5k), however that was the only overage, so all in all we stayed on-budget. Things that we got done in the project: - Bumped out front to add walk-in closet and much bigger master bath to master bedroom. - Reconfigured entryway with a foyer/mudroom and semi-open staircase to attic. - insulated attic. It's still unfinished, but much better for storage. - new roof w/ 30 year shingles - widened dining - family room entry to be open concept. - re-did fireplace wall with built-ins, stone tile, gas insert - new paint for most of first floor - refinished all hardwood. One thing that we did to help out is that we completely moved out of the first floor as well as most of the attic stuff into a POD. TCB will readily tell you that they aren't professional movers, so go ahead and hire a professional moving firm to do that for you to clear the way for TCB to do their work. We used 2 men and a truck and were very happy with them."

"Nick was awesome. He met with us promptly after we reached out, helped us figure out exactly what we needed, and was in constant communication with us until the project was complete. The workers were all very courteous and we were amazed at how clean our house stayed throughout the build even when they were doing demo. We feel like we got a great value and couldn’t be happier with the end result. We’ll definitely be contacting them again for our next project."

"I experienced the utmost in professionalism and creativity! They were very responsive to what I envisioned for my place and gave me assistance and support throughout the whole process, including advice when needed. The Peaches and Cream team made themselves available whenever needed and provided needed reassurance when I waffled on some of my decisions. I would unequivocally recommend them to anyone needing interior design services and decorating."

"We needed to have our kitchen remodeled badly. Jonathan was highly recommended. After talking to him and comparing his plan and 3-D graphs, we decided to hire him. We were very involved throughout the process. He was open to our design suggestions and they impacted minimally the original quote. The team was excellent. They all have great attention to detail and they are very organized and clean. Jonathans quote included everything we needed. He gave us the address of the places we needed to go to pick the cabinets and counter-top and we were very very happy with the quality of the materials. We did not need to upgrade them. And the end product is spectacular! We absolutely love our new kitchen. I love cooking in it, hanging out and simply looking at it."

"I have worked with Nathan on several projects ranging from our deck, roof, kitchen, and recently our bathroom. He has always been professional, informative, and easy to work with. What has always stood out to me is his integrity and commitment to providing excellent service and responsiveness. We have used other contractors prior to using Nathan and he stands out above the others as he has always gone the extra distance where the others didn’t. I have referred him to friends and they have always shared positive feedback which is why I am always happy to refer him to people I know. I would highly recommend Nathan and his company Trident Contracting whether it’s a bathroom or any other remodel or construction project. It’s rare today to find a contractor that stands behind their work and follows through on their commitment which is why I highly recommend Nathan and Trident Contracting."

"Alex and the District Renovations team did an excellent job renovating our home to give it the exact look and feel we wanted. He not just took the options we picked but also shared a lot of his own ideas for us to choose from to not only help improve the design but also reduce the overall cost. His pricing was very competitive and the timeliness of job was amazing. His team renovated almost the entire house in about 6 weeks. This included main level and bedroom level flooring/carpet change, cabinet painting, adding new cabinets, fixing dry wall, lighting, painting, redoing the pantry, powder room etc. The material was of top quality and the work was excellent and fast. Couldn't have asked for a better contractor. Alex made it all very cost effective, easy, reliable and hassle-free for us by a one-stop shop contractor. Would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a contractor."

"Very professional and the end product is beautiful"
