What Our Clients Say
“We had an extensive remodel of our kitchen, baths, and laundry room this summer, and our experience was wonderful. The design process was thorough and collaborative. The construction was done according to schedule. The quality of the work was very good. Communication with the contractor was great- we met weekly and he was accessible any time we had questions. The costs were in line with the estimate that was provided before starting the project. Highly recommend!”
— Donna D.
“The decision to remodel our kitchen with 3 small children was made so much easier with Powell. Once the design part was complete, I didn’t have to do anything else! All of the big and little details were taken care of and I especially appreciated how easy it was to make and change decisions during the process. I highly recommend using Powell Construction if you have any work to be done, big or little, in your home. Having friendly professionals along your side makes all the difference.”
—Kerry R.
“The folks at Powell Construction have done 2 remodels for us, one a major kitchen/family room and recently a garage interior. I can’t say enough good things about the professionalism, the follow-through, keeping to a timeline, outlining everything in writing, weekly check-ups, and the very great staff. We have two amazingly transformed spaces which are solidly built, beautiful and functional.”
— Susan H.
“What made the decision for us to choose Powell was the initial meeting with Tom (the owner) and Lindsay (one of their designers). They had great in-depth questions that gave us the feeling that they were going to be part of this process with us and not just passing us off. We had an idea of what we wanted and thought it would not be achievable, but Lindsay took our possibilities and showed us she could make them into reality. Everything turned out so much better than we expected. We cannot thank all the folks at Powell Construction enough that made this process so easy. We feel like they became part of our family vs our contractor.”
— Monica H.
“We want to say a very large and well-deserved “Thank you” for all the great work you have done for us as we converted a 1950’s home into a 2010’s home. From leading us through the various stages of design and decision making, to the deconstruction of the old and the emergence of the new, you were there for us. You helped us stay on track, explained the process every step of the way, and we really appreciate the documentation. We knew the cost of every step, when it was scheduled, and when the schedule had to be altered — never any surprises. We really can’t thank you enough for all you have done for us through all our projects!”
— Will & Cathy S.
