Replacing your aging interior doors with all new designer doors make an incredibly stunning transformation - interior door replacement is the best and most affordable makeover for your entire home! Of all the remodeling choices you have to update your home, it's replacing your doors with new designer doors that can have the most dramatic and immediate effect (for the least amount of money).
When clients want to remodel a significant portion of the home the task seems daunting and the question is where you begin. It is our opinion that the best place to start is with the Feasibility Study and this site has a section detailing what this is. In brief, the Feasibility study gives you the client the information you need to make an informed decision about moving forward.
There is no questioning the real need for second living units on properties. Whether it's a guest house, mother in law unit or an art studio, guest house having second home units can have many benefits. For years our cities were (to a degree still are) anti-growth and hence went about the business of making it financially not feasible by imposing exorbitant fees on second units.

We've worked with Mark and his team at Design Build Specialists, Inc. for over 10 years and two houses. In our old house, they remodeled two termite-damaged bathrooms with keen design, efficient execution, and excellent results.
In 2019, they remodeled a powder room in our current home, and worked comfortably with our designer. We liked the results so much we invited Mark to remodel our kitchen in 2021, and we are incredibly happy with it.
Beyond being very technically knowledgeable, super organized (lots of Gantt charts!), and a master at conflict resolution, Mark hires great people who are

We hired Mark and his team to do a whole-house remodel. He and his team were fantastic from the start. He is very knowledgable about many different areas in construction. We used his knowledge several times in the construction project as we came across termite damage, water damage and other odds and ends for an older home. He found workable solutions every time, and was very reasonable on his cost projections. Another area where Mark was fantastic was that when he makes a commitment he keeps it. We could always trust him to do what he said and follow through. A rarity it seems with contractors

Design Build Specialists remodeled my In Law Unit finishing it in August 2016. As is my custom when writing contractor reviews, I like to wait several months or a year to publish as I want to be confident the project is fully tested before I weigh in on it. These guys are the real deal, they did design the remodel and participated in every phase of the construction. They did a beautiful job and I am happy to report that worries I had about the drainage around the structure were excellently addressed, the water went where it was supposed to go, even in a heavy rainfall winter like we experienced
