Report
Their team is absolutely fantastic. I met with Diane and Kailee at the start of the project to go over the details, and they supported me through every step of the process. Kailee created an outstanding design plan, perfectly capturing what I had in mind while also offering several great options to choose from. She then transformed our final selection into a detailed 3D model, which gave a clear and realistic preview of the finished result.
Christina and the wider team then took over and ensured everything was executed according to plan, keeping me regularly updated on progress and any unavoidable delays, including those caused by Minnesotas winter storms.
Throughout the project, they were highly organized, responsive, and easy to communicate with via email. I also really appreciated how they took full responsibility for coordinating all contractors involved. The final result was truly stunning and absolutely deserving of a design award!
