"I got a call the same day as I purchased the deal. They were able to come over the same day which was nice. I had issues with some small space heaters blowing the main breaker which made absolutely no sense to me. The breaker was recently inspected by Fairfax county after a renovation that was recently done which makes me wonder how closely the county actually looked at the work (they also missed the fact that the guy didn't put a p-trap in the new bathtub drain). Jake showed up early which was nice and immediately asked if I wanted him to take his shoes off (nice gesture). He understood exactly what I was telling him- he opened up the box and immediately figured out what the issue was - stuff not being tight and too much exposed wire on one of the main hot lines. He knocked it all out in about 20 mins which saved me some money. I can think of several things that another less honest company could have pushed me to buy, but Jake just did what needed to be done. The problem I had is now gone. I told my contractor not to make these mistakes at other houses that he does. Now, I'm not sure if I should send a note to the Fairfax county asking why their inspector didn't tell my contractor to correct this. Another note - the website that they have is really nice. It is so simple, and a lot of services that they do are priced out - you can buy them right up front. I'm not sure why other companies don't make things simple like this. They are 100% digital, too. To pay for the service, I just swiped my cart on the phone and signed. There wasn't any old paper invoices where you rip off the top copy and have this nasty looking pink paper lying around the house. They sent me a text receipt and email. As a tech worker, I thought it was cool how they used square.. it's really simple and easy."

"I did not use this contractor to do the job after all. Their estimate was very expensive and more than I wanted to spend at the time. However, I know they would have done a wonderful job. They were very friendly and professional. Would contact for future work.

"When we decided to redo our kitchen in April of 2012, we knew what we wanted fixed, our budget and that's about it. We started talking to contractors, kitchen design centers and researching ideas. We quickly realized we were in WAY over our heads. A lot of places offer free design services if you buy all of your materials through them. We didn't want to be tied down. We didn't want a complete tear down to the studs, either. Homemade Design to the rescue! First of all the price was an absolute steal for the service provided. Amanda and co. Listened to what we wanted and came up with inovative,functional and beautiful solutions. Our house is old. We wanted to keep that 1920s feel, but still have a dishwasher, granite countertops and stainless appliances! Amanda had the brilliant idea of only replacing the bottom cabinets. She also gave me excellent instructions on how to refinish my existing cabinets so they look like new. This was a perfect solution for US. Homemade Design gave us ideas for layout, cabinets, lighting, wall paint, appliances, furniture, countertops, backsplash, faucets, sink,and cusions for built in. She would have recommended flooring if we wanted,but we didn't. Now, Amanda is more like a consultant...( I actually called her my kitchen remodel therapist). You still are ultimately responsible for the plan and what works for you. If your measurements are off (like mine were) that's on you. I was adament about no island and no microwave over the stove and so she didn't put those in the design. Some suggestions were not my style. And I said so. Honestly, if I picked out my own kitchen it would be so safe: white subway tile or something. Amanda gave me the guts to mix patterns and create something spectacular! It took almost a year to complete ( contractors fault) We did a lot of work ourselves. We bought the cabinets, backsplash tile, light fixtures, table and banquette cusions through Homemade Design at a great discount, we checked!! If you try shopping for any part of your kitchen, the volume of choices can be overwhelming. We loved having Amanda narrow it down for us. Communication was through email, mostly. She never took longer than three business days to respond to my million questions or concerns. Awesome. 5 months later, my kitchen is a dream come true. And I owe it all to Homemade Design!

"We called Machen for an estimate to tear off our old roof on our house and detached garage. They were very responsive and Jodi even came out on a Saturday to give us an estimate. He was very knowledgeable regarding the materials and products we needed, and we were impressed that he actually climbed the roof to take all of the measurements, where other contractors we had contacted did not. The estimate we received was fair considering that the roof deck would need wrapped and the amount of ice guard we needed. Jodi and his team were on time every day and got right to work. They took their time on the job and were very conscientious about the work performed to ensure it was done correctly. Jodi takes a lot of pride in ensuring the job site remains neat and takes a lot of care to ensure they thoroughly clean up before leaving for the day. We ran into heavy rain halfway through the project and Jodi even came out on the weekend to ensure that the roof was water tight before the rain hit. The new roof looks great and we are very pleased with the end result!"

"They arrived on time and completed the work in a timely manner. I was very pleased with their work. They also installed at an earlier time plastic under my house. They even noticed that insulation work I had done by another contractor was not completed. I called the contractor and told him they noticed his work and he came back and finished the job.  I didn't know it at the time, but they also install insulation. I would use them again."

"Excellent from start to finish. Project manager was professional and stayed in constant contact , contractor was professional and on time. Finished project is beautiful."
