Energy-Efficient Home Professionals

“My wife and I selected Michael Nash from among five separate bids for a considerable renovation and expansion of our home. Michael Nash was the second lowest bidder, but our confidence in Sonny Nazemin’s eye for design and considerable number of award-winning designs was crucial in our initial selection. We have a grand house in Reston built in the late 1960s. It has solid bones but really needed a whole house renovation. We also needed more space to house our extended family. Our project consisted of a new two-car garage, siding, roofing and a totally new floor consisting of a master suite and bathroom. From the start of the project I was impressed with the one price upfront to complete the project. Sonny navigated our plans through the difficult process of approval by our local Design Review Board. His personal attention and negotiation with the board led to the rapid approval of our project. Follow on work for our front porch and driveway was reasonably priced. When we requested a re-design of the ceilings for the master suite, Sonny spared no expense hiring several architects to arrive at the design we desired. His vision throughout the project ensured its success. ******************* EXTRA FOLLOW-ON WORK COMPLETED jANUARY 25, 2014 *********************** We gave Michael Nash extra follow-on work with our kitchen because we were so pleased with how our Master Suite and other work turned out. We told Sonny that we had a limited budget but wanted to get as much of the kitchen done as possible. He suggested that we keep our old cabinets and redo everything else. Sonny has a great eye for design and suggested that we take out some cabinets to open up the room. He helped us with color choices that made the kitchen modern and bright. They replaced the oven, the hood, the induction cooktop, the counter, the floor, the sink, repaired and replaced doors, painted the room and put in a new lighting system with ten canned lights. Michael Nash kept to a timetable except for the hood at the end, which was really unavoidable. We are thrilled with our new kitchen and recommend Michael Nash to our neighbors and friends.”

“I would highly recommend Baron Construction for your next project, and here's why. We had a bedroom remodel and Josue and the Baron Construction team were very professional from Day 1. When they came in to scope out the work, we were provided with an estimate at the same time - with an initial write up of the contract. We also received documentation on their licenses, bond, and insurance - all on the first meeting. Baron Construction was able to start our project a few days after we had signed the contract. Once the project started, the team was very conscious to cover the floors and other areas to make sure it wouldn't be impacted from the work. They had estimated 2 weeks to complete the work and came within that timeframe. Our bedroom remodel included replacement of ceiling (due to leak from bathroom above), check for additional leaks, texturize ceiling and paint, installation of recessed lighting, painting of walls and closet interior, replacement of carpet with new flooring, and new baseboards. We were impressed with their commitment to the quality of their work and made sure we were happy along the way. If you have home improvement projects in mind, I would recommend Baron Construction. I know we'll definitely keep them in mind for our next project.”

“Savvy Interiors took on quite a mission with our project. We have an older home, eclectic style and a tight budget. Every step of the way we were provided great ideas, patience and cost effective solutions. The room turned out perfect and I plan on using Savvy Interiors for every room in the house!”

“When Cindy was finished styling my home I was so much happier in it. I am a very strong minded women who knew what I wanted. Cindy was able to work very well with me, subtlety directing me to what worked best in my house without me even knowing it. I ended up with a gorgeous professionally styled home that I could never have achieved on my own. The entire time she was also very respectful of my ideas and preferences. Her staff was also a pleasure to work with. Her and her delightful team were very prompt and easy to get in touch with. They resolved all issues quickly and professionally. In addition to being a top designer Cindy is also a wonderful person.”

“We hired Eugene to architect our home remodel in Willow Glen. He did an outstanding job and we would recommend him without hesitation. Eugene listens to what his clients want and turns that in to a workable architecture. He made many excellent recommendations along the way and always kept the budget in mind. He also did a fantastic job of making the new house fit in with the neighborhood, something that was important to us. We will definitely hire Eugene again next time we do any type of remodel or new construction!”

“Board and Vellum designed a major kitchen remodel in our 1936 international modern home that expanded the kitchen into an adjacent bedroom. Jeff listened carefully to our vision and requirements and was a pleasure to work with. He led us to an excellent contractor and cabinet maker. The completed project fits seamlessly into the house, looks gorgeous, and is a joy to cook in and live in.”

“Rudloff Custom Builders performed extensive interior renovations on our home including: gutting and rebuilding our kitchen and butler's pantry (moving plumbing, etc) and building a custom banquette with storage; renovating four bathrooms; building out our lower level, including a new bathroom and a home gym in storage space; adding custom moldings and coffered ceilings, extensive electrical work, painting, removing and replacing windows and french doors, replacing marble tiles, and more! The Rudloff team worked quickly, efficiently and were incredibly professional as well as meticulous. All subcontractors working in our home were respectful, did great work, and left our home clean after leaving each day. We accomplished 8 months worth of work in 4 months. We can't say enough about Rudloff Custom Builders.”

“We did an expansion to our current house. We needed a game room for the kids, a den for the adults, two more bedrooms and a bathroom. Also a mud room, laundry room, some fixing in the existing house and redo the garage. We hired Sneller Custom Homes and Remodeling for the job. All these jobs were done while we were living in our current house. They are very professional, they helped us with the design, and ideas to better put in black and white what we wanted to do. Also, they worked with us to get things done inside the current living space to better accommodate our needs. The communication with Matt Sneller was great, if something was not as expected he took care of the situation. Great communication skills, and very professional in what he does. We highly recommend this company. Regards”

“As much as I knew that my kitchen needed some serious TLC, I was worried about inviting strangers in to my home to tear it apart. It is a gorgeous house, though, and it deserves to be taken care off. So, I finally gave in and called Pure Builders Inc to get the job done. Eli really helped ease my anxiety about the renovation. He was very kind and walked me through what all they were going to do, how long it would take, and how much it would cost. I don’t regret my decision in the least. It looks fantastic.”

“What a joy to work with. Nathan gives us solutions that fit within our budget. He is professional, fun and incredibly talented. His communication and follow up are top notch. Our house is a long term project and I look forward to the process. Springfield is lucky to have Nathan Taylor and Obelisk Home. I highly recommend them to anyone. Sincerely, Alison Manzardo”
