Once we decided to have Berry Built and Design do the job things moved along very quickly. There were workers at our home every day, and we were always kept informed of what to expect. The workmen who did the work could not have been more pleasant and professional, and always cleaned up before leaving for the day.
As with any project of this size, things were bound to come up that were not anticipated and Matt or Jerry from Berry Built were always able to explain what the problems were, and always had a solution to those problems.
We never realized all the choices that needed to be made for this remodel, from picking out floor color, to what kind of sink to get , what kind of faucet, what colors to paint the walls, ceiling, and trim, what type of counter top and what color etc. It could have been overwhelming if it weren’t for Sara and Manda at Berry Build. They were always available to offer suggestions, send over samples, and let us know based on there expertise what would go together from a design point of view.
I can’t say enough about the quality of work done by the professionals who work for and with Berry Built and Design, and it is a comfort to know that if problems were to come up in the future that we have one point of contact for whatever might need to be taken care of.
We are enjoying our remodeled home with all the new updated conveniences and have received nothing but great comments from friends and family when they see the work done by Berry Built and Design.
We are very please with our decision to use Berry Built and Design and would not hesitate for a second to recommend them to others..
for over a year and interviewed many contractors before embarking on a kitchen
remodel. I chose Berry based on both Angie?s List and House reviews.
I have a separate review for the design service that has before/after photos.
Overall, working with Berry was an excellent experience.
Initially, we hired the design team to do our kitchen design.
Every detail was worked out, down to the last light switch and door
knob. The design team is phenomenal in every way: good listeners, objective
input, and understanding our lifestyle, budget, and needs. Once the plan was
done we felt very comfortable with the Berry Co. and hired them for the job.
The job was on schedule and went according to plan. Matt is
excellent at planning and scheduling. There was never any down time or days
when no one showed up. The team of workmen is very professional, polite, clean,
extremely talented, and friendly. We both work at home and the crew was very
respectful of that.
The things that stood out for us were the professionalism,
communication, and attention to detail. There was no looking at things after
the workers have left for the day and knowing you are going to have to ask to
have it redone. Berry Build strives to do things right the first time, and it
really shows. We feel we may have paid a little more for Berry Built than other contractors, but it was worth every penny to not have any concerns about any aspect of the job.
I absolutely recommend Matt and his team for
either design work or any remodels.
Design Service:
First I hired the designers to do my kitchen design. I had spent too much time on the internet, with graph paper, at Box stores and was feeling overwhelmed and like I was missing something. I met a KBD (Kitchen Bath Designer) from another city on vacation who convinced us to hire a design firm. So we hired the Berry team for design first and never ever regretted it. It was money very well spent.
Matt and Manda came to the house, took photos and laser measurements, and chatted with us about what we loved/hated and wanted. Then the team presented us with three options for updating and improving the function of our 1979 soffited kitchen. We picked one option right away, and then spent quite some time working out the details. I loved the objective input on function. I found them to be very good listeners and very attentive to our needs and style, even when I brought in comments from my husband second hand.
I was encouraged to find and share ideas on Houzz which worked really well for collection, discussing, using and or discarding
ideas. Manda and Sara showed a great understanding of our style right off the bat. I really appreciated the guidance in color, material and finish selection. When I was unsure of which finish to choose, the guidance provided was always appropriate. The team had a great attention to detail ? my cookbooks were measured and a space was found for them; and special space was found for a requested unique pull out. Their understanding of how to best use space is phenomenal. I was presented with a final set of plans with every finish, knob, appliance and fitting decided upon and ready to go, for any builder.
In the end, I have a kitchen that is amazingly beautiful and incredibly functional. Everyone wants to know what walls were moved, and the answer is, ?none? .With the guidance of the Berry Built design team, my ?79 builder-grade, dysfunctional kitchen has been transformed into a beautiful space that gives me joy to work in every day.
I would highly recommend this company for kitchen design.
What a wonderful experience. The Berrys were worth waiting for. I contacted Matt & Sara shortly after purchasing my 1950s rancher. Matt was very upfront about their busy schedule. However, after meeting with them, I decided to wait for them. My desire was to do the kitchen and bath remodel while maintaining the essence of the 50s. Sara and Manda listened to my desires and did a wonderful design for me. They were spot-on with their recommendations of materials as well. The Berrys believe that a thoughtful, thorough design phase leads to a smoother build phase. The theory was born out on this project. At the start of the work, they provided me with a schedule which only had very minor slippage in it. To stay on schedule, someone was at the house working every weekday.until completion. Jerry, the project manager, did a daily check-in at the house and did a great job of communicating with me about what would be happening when. Since I continued to live in the home for much of the renovation, everyone was very polite and accommodating. They were fabulous with my dog, making sure doors were closed so that she didn't seek out. And, when she did a couple of times, they even chased her and carried her home. When we neared completion, I was pleasantly surprised to find many things in the design which had not crossed my mind to consider during the design phase, such as beautiful cabinetry with unique hinges.
Was it an expensive project? Yes, but the quality that was provided will last for many years to come. My home still feels like it was built in the 1950s, but has all the convenience and openness of today. It is without hesitation that I recommend the Berrys.
Matt and Sara Berry have a complete kitchen and bath remodel service. They provide design, and construction services.
The workmen they employ are amazing. The removal of lath and plaster from a house built in 1909 is an extremely dirty job and their clean up was excellent. Everyone they employed seemed to really enjoy his work and was seemingly intent on doing the best work possible. I can't praise them enough as I have never worked with work people who were such hard, dependable workers. Even the subcontractors fit this mold.
Matt and Sara were always available for questions and were responsive to any requests. They made this approximately 8 week project just as easy as it could possibly be.
Our old house kitchen hadn't been remodeled since the early seventies and the results of this remodel are exceptional. A beautiful, more functional kitchen was achieved.
Sara and Matt have a wonderful crew at their office and in the field. Please don't hesitate to contact them if you have something you need done. They may not be the cheapest, but they purchase quality products and back them 100%.
Matt & Sara came in July to look at the basement. They took lots of pictures and measurements. I did tell them that we had a budget. They explained that they would need a few weeks to put a plan together and they would call us when things were ready for us to come and look the plans over and discuss any questions we would have. Sara gave me a web site to go to, for us to look at possible design ideas. I love the web site!
We met a couple of months later to look at there design ideas. Since we are not in any hurry to get the work done we were good with waiting a couple of months to look at any design ideas they had.
We met them at there office and they informed us that they had 2 different plans for us to look at. They told us about how they talked in detail with there electrical and plumbing contractors on how to work the space for the bathroom. They were trying how not to move any plumbing and to work with what was already there. We wanted a Jacuzzi tub but no shower. We have two walk in showers upstairs but not tub. The first plan they showed us was wonderful. They had looked at things that we had never considered. They reworked the entrance to the bathroom and the bedroom beautifully. The second plan was almost liked the first but with just a few changes. Basically, we fell in love with the first design.
Matt then explained how the plan moves forward and the initial cost of each plan. We had a budget in mind but never told them what the total budget amount was. It was at this point my husband and I went home and looked at the budget and
discussed all our options. Unfortunately because we did not have a realistic idea of costs we are going to have to put the project on hold for some time. We do like the plans and would like to have Berry Built do the project but not until we have the funds saved up. We are very flexible and have time on our side, we feel that we can wait until we have and additional $25,000.00 saved.
Matt and Sara are easy to work with and to talk too. They are budget conscious and tried to work with all the plumbing constraints that are present. They have a beautiful plan and we will hopefully work with them in the future.
"We had a wonderful time working with these clients to improve the function of their home. The design process was exciting as we began creation of the master plan. Not only were we blessed to have a project during the winter holiday season, they actually moved out of their home in an effort to allow us to remodel much of their main floor. For that we are very thankful. There is a great deal of trust involved with hiring a contractor and we are pleased to know that we were chosen as their team. We thoroughly enjoyed working with you."
