Gary was very professional, always on time, managed his great sub contractors very well and was open to suggestions for changes. He was especially good at being able to tell us what would or wouldn't work with the construction and design of our project. We added a mud room, an additional bay to our garage, we pushed out the back wall in the kitchen and made a master bath suite. I loved working with his carpenter Brandt who could pretty much build anything I asked! He did a beautiful range hood for us and a number of gorgeous build ins throughout. I was able to show him photos of exactly what I wanted and he was able to create them! Brandt was very professional and always on time. He was especially concerned that I was happy with where the design was going and was always willing to jump in and make adjustments as needed. I would absolutely recommend Gary for any job big or small and feel so lucky to have found him and his team to make our house stunning!

When I was interviewing contractors, I knew Gary was the right guy for the job based on his professionalism and his ability to foresee where there were issues that needed to be fixed. We did a top to bottom remodel and Gary got me in touch with a great sub-contractors who did a wonderful job with re-design (we pushed out our back wall and expanded our master bath), structural engineering and construction, kitchen design, carpentry, flooring, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. His carpenter Brandt helped make our vision of beautiful build ins (entertainment centers, bookshelves) and a custom range hood a reality (not to mention the beautiful build ins all the bedroom closets). Gary was always very upfront and honest with the scope of work and helped us meet our deadline. I can't recommend him enough! We never worried because we knew Gary and his team wouldn't cut corners to get the project done. We are beyond thrilled with how our house turned out and we're so excited to be living in our new, beautiful house!

Do not waste your time or money with this unreliable design team!!!!…read more We spent 10 weeks working mainly with Toni's partner, Alex, to get a precise plan for a laundry room/bathroom remodel all with the promise of great contractors and ease of project management. After all this time we have a design that cost thousands. We have a drawing of the space and not one recommendation for a reliable contractor, and no recommendations for tile, cabinets, doors, any finishes at all. We spent thousands for a plan that contractors say is too detailed, unnecessary and confusing. The entire time both Toni and Alex insisted they had reliable contractors that they regularly worked with which we had been having difficulty finding. Alex insisted on coming out to our house to measure and remeasure at least three different times so we would have completely accurate plans to share with their contractors to get us the best and most accurate bids. Alex never took notes when he would meet with us, despite our requesting that he take notes because he was NOT getting our ideas or requested changes down accurately. We asked that he take notes so that he would get our requests correct the first time we made them. Instead he went back multiple times to make corrections for his lack of completing plans the way we had originally requested they be made (if he took notes this might not happen). He would regularly have to make additional corrections because he didn't do what we had originally asked...this was all at a cost to us. When he finally brought in a contractor that was supposed to give us a very accurate bid based on the very detailed plans Alex charged us thousands to create, the contractor said he didn't even give estimates or bids, he just charged for whatever time was spent and gave receipts to the client for any materials purchased. Oh and he couldn't give us a timeline for work, he would just be working us in on Saturdays. Are you kidding me?! What had we wasted all this time and money on, if Alex doesn't even have reliable contractors that need his ridiculously detailed plans? In the meantime, Toni was supposedly looking into finishes according to Alex, which we never saw. By the time we cut our losses and ended working with Alex & Toni, we had never received any finishing design help. The two minor finishes they looked into and information they did share was for a glass shower door (that apparently took 30 minutes to send an email for a quote) and a bathtub that took 35 minutes to discuss with no quote attached and the mount requested was wrong (undermount when it was supposed to be overmount) - I know, shocking, another example of not taking notes and remembering incorrectly. In addition to our overall disappointment with working with Alex and Toni, they also have some annoying logistical challenges to overcome in this digital age. They have no way to take electronic payments (no credit card payment, no Venmo - checks only), they do not utilize email nor text as an efficient mode of communicating with clients and Alex talks way too much when you do have a phone call or in person meeting with him and doesn't listen nor take notes, causing your bill to increase and you to make little progress on the project. We had multiple conversations to try to get on the same page with communication and electronic communication being our preferred method as we both work but it never improved. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY HERE! We have been working with a new designer that has given us ideas on finishes in one day and made changes to the design we received from Alex to make it easier for the contractor to use.

We first hired Toni Palmer Designs in 2007 to renovate the entire first floor of our 20-year-old home, taking it from cold and blah to warm and welcoming. Once we agreed on the design and budget, they guided us through product selection and coordinated all of the contractors. We came home from vacation to a completed project, which looks as timeless today as it did 10 years ago. Last year, we used TPD to renovate two bathrooms. Although it was a smaller project, we experienced the same great level of service and attention to detail.

It was always on our list of necessary updates. We had talked with contractors, but it became clear we needed a design to work from, and to make sure we would make the most of the home renovation and make sure we got what we wanted and expected. Kristina and Alexis are great to work with. They were hands-on and met with us to select tiling, lights, fixtures, etc. We needed their expertise and insight, but our choices reflected our preferences and taste. Kristina and Alexis do a great job of guiding without dominating. It was hard to find a designer and a contractor willing to work on only one bathroom. We know it's a small project for designers and contractors, but Denver Design Group always treated our project and home with the respect they deserve. The rest of our house feels a bit drab in comparison. We will definitely contact Denver Design Group for future home remodeling projects. Thank you so much for your time, talent and help, Kristina and Alexis. We are so happy we found Denver Design Group and highly recommend you.

Based on a trusted referral, I hired Kristina and Alexis to oversee my home remodel, aiming…read moreprimarily to increase natural light in my kitchen. The layouts they provided failed to meet this goal-and worse, placed the laundry room awkwardly in the home's center. None worked for me, but after paying nine thousand dollars upfront, I felt committed to salvaging value. When Home Depot delivered a design I actually liked, I asked them to at least honor the discounts promised at the start. They didn't; prices stayed inflated, even during their shopping day, which Alexis chalked up to showroom markup. Now that Home Depot has finalized my plan, I'm asking Kristina and Alexis to fulfill our original agreement-they're refusing, saying too much time's passed, though it had been under a year. And when I first reached out? They demanded more money for more time. Unprofessional.

Kitchen Renovation - January-April 2023…read more Deciding to do a full kitchen renovation on our 1885 brick bungalow was an exciting decision for my wife and I to make after purchasing the home in the spring of 2022. With the current supply chain issues and labor shortages we knew that choosing the correct design/build firm was going to be the most important factor in this process for a successful outcome. During our initial meetings with Gina and Jamin (the Colorado Homes and Design/Earth Saving Solutions team) we quickly confirmed that we had chosen the right firm. As a retired executive chef, I had very specific requirements for our new kitchen. Gina took those ideas and presented us with a thoughtful design that incorporated an efficient layout with the premium materials we requested. As the project progressed we were very impressed with the emphasis on quality craftsmanship that Jose (project lead) and his team put into every aspect of our renovation, always making the extra effort to get it exactly right. When you are fully renovating a 135 year old space, you know that you are going to uncover some unexpected issues and we were certainly no exception. After some trail and error with our communication process, we dialed in our communication process between the whole team. We were able to navigate any and all issues quickly and move forward toward our project completion. From design to pre-con to final walk-through this team stepped up and made our dream kitchen a reality. For a renovation from simple to extensive, we would highly recommend Colorado Homes and Design/Earth Saving Solutions. Gina, Jamin and Jose exceeded all of our expectations. David and Deb
