Custom Build Home Professionals in Mentor, OH

“I have known Martin in a professional capacity since 2001. We initially worked as colleagues at two different mid-size architectural firms over a 2 year period. Martin first came to my attention as a highly skilled Drafting Consultant who was working on some of the more complex projects in the firm. When I moved on to a different company and was asked to recruit new talent, the first person I thought of was Martin. Martin eventually came on board at the new firm and carried a significant project load from day one, allowing his new employer the luxury and financial windfall of billing out a very large and complex luxury multi-family housing project with a modicum of actual manpower. After I founded my own firm, I again recruited Martin when I needed help to complete my own multi-family housing project on a very tight timeline. I gave Martin one of the most challenging technical tasks, that of cutting wall and building sections through this five story building. Martin rose to the challenge and delivered accurate, technically sound work on time and on budget. I knew from past experience that I could count on Martin and he did not let me down. It has been wonderful watching Martin grow his architecture firm into a highly-sought after practice. Martin's attention to detail and craftsmanship shows in all of his projects. His background as a Danish carpenter with many years of architectural practice gives Martin a unique design perspective that other architects simply do not have. I would welcome the opportunity to partner again with Martin in the future.”

“This is a top-notch company. Mike and Jim are smart problem-solvers, creative thinkers and great people. They brought skilled artisans to work on our major renovation which resulted in a wonderful new kitchen, truly the heart of our home, in our beautiful old (1923) home. It was important to us to have the new kitchen feel appropriate to the period architecture of our house and it does. This was a very large project and could have been beset by frustration, delay and poor communication. Instead it was a smoothly managed project that gives us great pleasure everyday.”

“Richardson Design is a team that get's it. They are thoughtful and right on. They have a perfect balance of business savy and forward, creative thinking. Working with Scott and the team is a pleasure.”

“Payne & Payne Builders are great. They follow up on customer satisfaction after the house has been completed. John Ingram, the project manager keeps in touch to make sure that we are satisfied 3 years after the house was completed. That is what I call great customer service! We would definitely build with Payne & Payne again.”

“We used Mike from Artisans Design Group to remodel our kitchen, breakfast area and relocate the entrance from the garage. Mike is very creative, thinks out of the box, has very competent employees(which were great to have in the house) and above all, they are great craftsman. The work took as long as Mike originally stated, about two and a half months. Because Mike got me to move out of my comfort zone, the kitchen is really great! We even have a coffee bar in an unused space above the stair well! Grays, whites and antqiue chandeliers where never in my original plan. I had no question as to who I was going to use in the kitchen as we used Artisan for a back splash/hood in our previous home and Artisan rebuilt our neighbor's older back sun porch and when completed, looked like a major room in the house with so much more style The bathrooms are next!!”

“As a designer I work with several different builders and contractors, however working with J. Kapela Design & Construction is by far the most organized. I can always get in contact with Justin or Jared to answer any questions I may have.”

“I've now had Smartland handle three jobs, all big, at my home. They've previously restored my floors after a flood and rebuilt my garage after a neighbor drove into the back of it. Now they've also replaced all my siding, over the entire house. It was a tricky job, not least because, after the siding was damaged by my neighbor's accident, I had to deal with two different insurance companies over the cost and coverage issues. Smartland did more than contract for the job--they handled all the negotiations with the two companies. My house looks great!”

“We hired EvoDomus to help us design and build our dream house in Northern California. During the design and build process we always felt that we were being listened to and EvoDomus went above and beyond to make sure we understood the entire process, the next steps and how certain decisions would affect our budget. The house was built on time and on budget and we couldn’t be happier. We would definitely recommend EvoDomus to anyone looking for a modern and energy efficient home.”

“Imaginet has helped with various projects throughout my house over the past year. Their vision and experience blend well together to create an impressive end product. Additionally, I have seen many of their home remodels and am always impressed with the quality and finishes.”

“We had Peerless Homes do our remodel on our century home kitchen wing. Kitchen, bath, laundry and mudroom/dog porch. Denis the owner, had great ideas and was good to work with when I changed my mind or had a quirky question and or request. Very professional, the trades all come on time, everyone involved took pride and ownership in the project. Not an easy project when working with a demanding owner (me) and an old house. But in the end we have wonderful remodel that blends seamlessly with our old but now new kitchen.”
