This company is the very best contractor I have ever met, I am 84 years of age and have a lot of construction work don on my house that I have owned for over thirty years, most of it OK and some not very good. Then I got a price from this company about ten years ago and I thought that they were kind of high, but I went with them anyway to see how their work was, I was very surprised with their work it was immaculate and the best that I have seen, since then I have had numerous jobs done by them and I am still being surprised and very happy as to as to the quality of their work, I will never go

I first hired Custom Design & Construction a few years ago to remodel my bathroom and bedroom. I was so pleased with the results that when I recently decided to do the rest of my apartment (kitchen and living room) I didnt even bother to get bids from any other contractor, I just went straight to CD&C.
Nicole Zavala, my designer, was great to work with. She had an excellent grasp of my tastes and was able to pull together a design that was perfect both functionally and aesthetically. Santos Mejia, my project manager, was always on top of things and kept me informed of what was happening every

Much has been said of Custom Design and Constructions efficiency and professional adherence to timelines, budgets, and their detailed workmanship. However, a companys professionalism and integrity is also a reflection of their teams ability to form lasting quality relationships with their clientele. We wanted to feel comfortable in our gut as well as in our head with the people who were going to become our extended family during our extensive whole house remodel.
