Design and Build Companies in Sherman, CT

“My wife and I hired Kling Brothers Builders/Keith Kling to build an addition onto the back of our house, which included a new kitchen, family room, patio, mudroom, and other modifications to the interior. From the start, I was very impressed with Keith’s preparedness and diligence. He created a very detailed and transparent budget (approximately 10 pages), which outlined each item to be done and the price. More importantly, his estimate was accurate, and the prices that we agreed to did not change throughout the project. Keith is also very hands-on. He was on-site every day during the project. He is extremely responsive by email and phone, and if I emailed him a question while I was at work, within a very short period of time, I would receive a response. He was also available on weekends to meet with me, which was more convenient for my schedule. The workmanship of Kling Brothers Builders is top notch. Their on-staff carpenters are excellent, and their subcontractors are all superb. I did not have any issues with shoddy work or questionable characters walking around my property or in my house. Keith is very diligent about the “structure” and integrity of the building, and takes pride in how well built and solid the “bones” of the project are. Although I am not a builder myself, you can just tell that something is well put together by looking at it. Keith stresses quality and perfection, and was not satisfied until we were satisfied. He has access to some of the best craftsmen in the area, and in particular he introduced us to a custom cabinet maker who created a showcase kitchen for us. His other subs, such as the electrician, the plumber, etc., were all personable and flexible. All in all, we were very impressed and happy with Keith Kling. Although my wife and I are reasonable, we also have very high standards. Given the size of our project (to us), we expected top service and attention. Keith came through with flying colors, and he was very friendly, personable, and professional throughout. I have no tolerance for service providers who do not do what they say or make you feel as though you are doing them a favor by giving them your money. Keith is certainly not one of those people. Our project came in on budget, and any additional work that I wanted done was communicated and agreed-to up front. There were no surprises and the communication between Keith and us could not have been better. I give Kling Brothers Builders/Keith Kling my highest recommendation. I hope to use them again on a future project.”

“Kieth is a professional whom I would hire for a top notch bathroom or kitchen renovation. We hired Kieth's company to do both small and large jobs and he always came in on time and within budget and stood behind his work. The quality of the jobs are always top notch. He has a sterling reputation in town for good reason. He does what he says. A rare gem!”

“TR Building completed our kitchen project for us. It was completed to the highest standard on schedule and on budget. They took personal pride in the quality of the work, and kept disruption to an absolute minimum. A truly professional firm.”

“Design Builders employs competent project managers and skilled trades people. They are responsive, enthusiastic, and they offer great ideas. I have hired them to work in my own home as well as on client projects and have never been disappointed. My own kitchen renovation was tricky and they tackled the issues with creative solutions. In my clients home I trust them to provide professional service and top quality cabinetry. My clients have expressed their pleasure with the finished results in their home which came from close and easy collaboration with the Design Builders team.”

“Lisa and Fred are terrific. They have been on the job since May, and when finished will have done 4 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms (all to the studs) a den, a new coffered ceiling in the living room and replaced all the windows in the house. There is much more but the aforementioned tell you what you need to know. They pay attention to the smallest details. Lisa has thoughtful design ideas but encourages input from the homeowners. She is also very organized which keeps the job progressing at a good pace. Fred and his team are great and unfailingly polite and pleasant to deal with. The quality of their work is first rate. They are both pleasure to work with.”

“I have worked with Anne on several projects. She is committed to giving customers professional yet gentle guidance, always listening and always with clients' budgets in mind. I do not hesitate to recommend Anne to any of my own customers. I know that in Anne, they will have an interior designer who will always act with integrity and who will achieve beautiful results no matter what the project.”

“We hired Gary to add a ceiling/floor to loft space in order to create a new room. He was very professional in keeping us informed of the progress and maintaining a tidy, organized work area at all times. He is very trustworthy and was a pleasure to have in our home for the duration of the project.”

“Phil Herzegovitch is the consummate professional. The caliber of his work is truly second to none, but what really separates him from his competition is the fact that he cares about his work and his clients, coupled with a level of integrity that you just don't see very much of anymore. Phil was the GC and designer on my dream kitchen renovation, and he very strategically worked with me from beginning through completion to ensure the project was exactly what I wanted. He's an excellent listener and strategic thinker, reliable, and he took the time to understand my style and taste and stepped out of the box with ideas, resources and added value every step of the way. Because of his superb talent in carpentry, he was able to achieve results I never imagined. His abilities across the board are extremely comprehensive and my kitchen exceeded my wildest imagination. No one will ever forget my beautiful kitchen!”

“Bill's character, integrity, and excellent workmanship are reason enough to hire him for your next job. His finish work is superb. I have worked with him for years on projects as large as a two-story addition, to my kitchen and bath renovations most recently. He uses subs who are like-minded and skilled, and considers the homeowners' safety throughout the project. I can't imagine trusting my home to anyone else.”

“We had two fabulous experiences working with Clark. They did the remodel for our master bath, and then a few months later we happily hired them again to replace some rotten trim and paint the exterior of our house. Both were large projects, the bathroom especially as we basically gutted the room and started from scratch. I was afraid the process would be overwhelming, but Clark was there every step of the way to help us. Every phase of both projects, from the initial design of the bathroom to the final inspection of the paint job, was easy and seamless. Their contractors were always on time and courteous. They handled any issues (my fault, not theirs, I hated the exterior paint color I chose!) immediately and with a smile on their faces. I have recommended them to several friends, and would not hesitate to use them for any additional projects that we may have in the future. I was shocked to read the other review, as my experience was the exact opposite. The employees at Clark - everyone from the office manager to the designer to the project manager - were always on top of things and returned my calls, texts or emails immediately. I could not have been happier with my experience.”
