I initially had reservations about using a designer in general because I wasn't sure how everything would look and I wanted my house to be mine after everything was said and done. Allen was very receptive to my concerns and helped both me and my fiance understand the remodeling process and helped to keep in in control of the process. His suggestions ended up being exactly what I was looking for and then some! He was even able to help me work around the restrictions of my condo association which was amazing! Highly recommended I can't say it enough.

Essentially, most of our house was demo'd for this major project. We were nervous about everything, cost, design, etc and Allen walked us through each step, making us extremely confident about the project. He is very thoughtful and experienced when it comes to both function and thinking long term to resale value. Allen made many suggestions that we did not know were even possible to increase the functionality of our (new) home. We are now in the midst of the renovation/addition and he is still involved in the process to make sure we are happy with the design. I really cannot say enough about him as well as the contractor that he referred us to. We would highly recommend Allen and SDA (so much so that 2 of our neighbors are planning to work with him in the near future)!

Tim and his team have worked with us on three completed residential projects at our home. We are…read morenow preparing to start a fourth phase, which we hope will complete the upgrade of our nearly 60 year old Cape. The first project was a street facing dormer that reshaped the look of the house from the exterior, while providing where before there had been a gloomy restrictive hall, expansive new well lit space inside. Interior finishes included high density foam insulation, replacing all old style wood trim with new bold trim, a long window seat, and custom shelves, cabinets and a built in desk. With the contractors still on site, a design in hand, we started the second project, while halfway through the first. This project was to upgrade the original 1966 upstairs bathroom, and replaced it with a 3 room segmented space that had separate shower/bath, toilet, and 2 sink washroom. We have 4 bedrooms on the second floor. With Tim we created the perfect 4 person bathroom, where all 4 could, if necessary, simultaneously have privacy, while sharing the same space. Tim designed the cabinetry for both the 8' vanity, and shower/tub room. Tile selections, combined with careful LED placement, gave us a bright usable space. When the second floor dormer and bathroom were complete, we moved from our downstairs Master bedroom to one of the upstairs bedrooms to make way for the third project, which was intended to provide a first floor master suite where we could eventually gracefully age in place. Tim's design gutted the left side of our house, removing the master bedroom, a guest room, powder room and small classic 1960's master bath consisting of a shower, toilet and single sink. He extended, with a full basement under, the back of the house 8' for the length of the master bedroom and master bath. The finished product comprised an expanded entry hall, relocated formal powder room, and entry coat closet, an expanded Master Bedroom with a large walk in closet, and a Master bath unit that included a closeted laundry, 8' counter with 2 sinks, linen closet, and a wet room that allowed ample space for a shower that had both a wall head and ceiling rain shower, plus a full size bath tub. Exterior walls and ceilings were insulated with closed cell foam that provides the most remarkable heat and A/C retention. As with the upstairs Tim paid particular attention to the finish details, being uncompromising and bold with the door design, windows, molding, trim, as well as adding crown molding. Doors were sized to allow wheelchair access, if we were to ever need it, bathroom fixtures while beautiful, were also selected to ensure they would be as relevant today, as they might need to be in 20 years. We completed these projects last spring, and love the finished work, with us particularly enjoying the space, comfort, and grandeur of our bedroom and bathroom. These projects were part of a master plan we had initially worked on with Tim, with the final stage of the master plan to bump out our constricted family room and kitchen, plus remove a small three season converted breezeway between the garage and house, replacing it with a two story space that will combine Tim's bold style with our desire for a functional kitchen, and more importantly a warm welcoming home.
