Walczak Design and Build LLC

Working with the Walczak's was a fantastic experience from start to finish! We met and interviewed several different firms and knew clearly we wanted to work with Lisa and Derek. We loved Lisas design ascetic and process and really trusted and respected Derek as a contractor to oversee the project. One major reason was they have long-standing relationships with quality sub-contractors, so the coordination was seamless and everyone from the electricians, to the cabinet makers, to the painters were very courteous, professional and the work was outstanding! We had small space and a long wish list (take down walls, double wall ovens, a need for a lot more storage, a dedicated coffee bar, giant windows). Lisa offered us several different designs to make sure it was prefect for us, including one that not only ticked all the boxes I had asked for but allowed us to have an continuous open flow with our screened in porch, and added more seating for our dining table and looked absolutely beautiful! We get compliments all the time! The entire process went very smoothly, on time and on budget. The app they use to communicate and map out the process is great, and allowed us to see what was happening each day, where we were in the process, and I loved the ability to have everything from material selections to invoices in one place. You might be able to find someone do to the work cheaper but the peace of mind of working with true professionals who stand by their work is worth it. They never try to upsell or pressure you and worked hard to stay within our budget without sacrificing our vision. I only wish we had found Lisa and Derek before we hired the other contractors for previous projects. Nothing is ever perfect, but this experience was about as close as you could get! We plan to work with Walzcak for all our future needs!

Lisa and Derek are an amazing team to work with from start to finish. I approached with them a unique project of finishing my basement but adding in a dog spa/mud room and taking out a bulk head and adding a back door. They accepted the challenge and I couldn't be happier with the results. Lisa was amazing with her design process and putting together renderings of what the space could become. She was forthcoming and direct about costs while adhering to my budget. Lisa also made sure that I was happy with every fixture and material. As someone who gets overwhelmed easily, Lisa made sure to show me a few thing at a time, and coming back with more options if I did not like what I had seen. Derek and his team were amazing. Derek is communicative, always responded to a text or phone call, and answered any questions I had. He was extremely thoughtful in showing me the space as it was coming along, and took the time to explain any changes that needed to be made and why. I trusted him and his team completely in my home. The rest of the team was extremely hard working and they never disrupted my comings and goings while the project was in process. I highly recommend Lisa and Derek if you're looking for a team to come in and renovate your home. I would hire them every time. If you're looking for an honest, trusting, and hardworking team these are your people.

We only have great things to say about the Walczak team! They did a terrific job throughout the design process working with us to keep the character of the house, but also transforming it in a way that reflects our personalities. They then executed the vision and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have felt right at home since Day One and are completely thrilled with our new space. We have recommended Walczak Design and Build to friends and will continue to do so!

When we decided to make renovations in our home, we knew we wanted a team that could not only design, but also build. We were frustrated with the lack of comprehensive services that other general contractors offered. We had heard good things about the team at Walczak Design + Build and gave them a call. From the first introductory meeting, we were impressed with their level of professionalism and process. We were blown-away with the drawing boards that their design team came up with and they made it easy to select the direction we wanted to go. The crew was very friendly, respectful, and neat! There were many touch points and check-ins throughout the process to make sure everything was being done to our satisfaction. We were very pleased with the attention to detail right through the completion of our project. We plan on continuing to utilize their services for future projects that we have.

We have only good things to say about Walczak Design + Build! Derek and Lisa were a pleasure to work with, on every aspect of our home renovation project. With their help, we transformed two older bathrooms into newer, cleaner, brighter spaces, that are as functional as they are beautiful. Plus a mudroom! Lisa and her design team had great vision from the start. They listened to our wants and needs; made recommendations based on their collective experience; and designed and redesigned our rooms until we were fully satisfied. Derek and his construction team delivered on Lisa's promises, with great attention to detail. Communication was always a priority and updates came frequently. We would not hesitate to use Derek, Lisa and their team for our next project, and, without reservation, we highly recommend them to others.
