We hired Lamp to add a laundry/mudroom to our carport, resigned/remodeled the layout of the kitchen and added a small party off the kitchen. We loved the fact that they were local and did in house design services with an architect and draftsman on staff. We love our new additions and kitchen redesign. Great staff and crew, it was a pleasure working with these guys!

I am so pleased with my beautiful new pool house designed by Mel Lamp. Lamp Design and Build has a wonderful staff and crew that worked so hard to make this happen. Not only is it a beautiful space but all workmanship was outstanding from framing, Sheetrock, tile work, flooring and finishing. The crew was always professional, polite and respect. The staff was helpful and responsive. Its really a dream come true for me. The only downside was it took much longer than I thought, there were delays. However upon completion all is well and I would like to thank each and every person who was involved

I hired Lamp to build me a workshop. Came out exactly as I wanted and on budget. Recommend Matt and his skilled workers to everyone I know needing home improvements or a new garage.

We hired Lamp Design + Build to demo our existing garage, and build a bigger more customized garage. Everything was completed on time and I couldn't be happier with the quality of work they did for us. If you're looking for a contractor that's capable of getting your job done start to finish, look no further. Matt and his team really are the best, they were so knowledgeable and kept us informed every step of the way.

When my husband and I decided to do a kitchen remodel we didn't know where to begin. Fortunately our neighbor told us about Lamp, Design, + Build. We are absolutely in love with our new kitchen! All the attention to detail from Matt and his team was phenomenal. They offer great customer service, quality work, and reliability that was second to none. We highly recommend anyone looking to do any work on their home to go with Lamp.

We are using Lamp Design Build to do a major renovation of our home and are currently over half way through the project. It is coming along very nicely. They have worked with us to get the most out of our budget, provided great recommendations in designing the project, and are very satisfied with the quality of work. From the office staff to the onsite workers, everyone has been a pleasure to work with.
