In Our Clients' Words
 “We
really enjoyed working with Dave and Peggy on our kitchen
remodel.
We started out with a kitchen so small that my husband and I
could not stand in the kitchen space at the same time and
open the dishwasher. The refrigerator was positioned in such
a way that we were never able to open the door completely,
so we could pull out a shelf if something slipped down
behind it. Our challenge to Quality Design and Construction
was to solve these problems for us.
They took the simple ideas we suggested and expanded on them
so that in the end, we have much more space that we could
have hoped for. Now my husband and I can stand in the
kitchen together, open the dishwasher and retrieve a fallen
object from behind a refrigerator shelf, all at the same
time if we want to, That’s an accomplishment.
They and their crews were a pleasure to work with, the
kitchen they gave us was quality work and I would highly
recommend them to anyone with a home remodeling need.”

are so happy with our kitchen remodel. The flow is better,
it is more spacious and it is gorgeous. The sunroom addition

2004 Remodelors Council™ Home Tour House, Lochmere, Cary
 “The only phrase appropriately applied to them is 100%
satisfaction. I believe that this begins with the competence
of the group, but is heavily influenced by the exemplary
personal character of Dave and Peggy. They are decent people
who want to do a good job and please their customers. It is
clear that they really enjoy what they do, which Dave
expressed as “creating things” and “seeing things come
together well . . . We especially appreciate the they were
sensitive to our concerns about cost. They were especially
careful to give us an accurate estimate. They presented
options and revised the contract until our budget and
desires matched in an optimal way. Most people find it
amazing that we allowed this work to be done on our home
while we were 1500 miles away . . . our interactions with
Dave and Peggy (as well as contacting a few past customers)
convinced us that they could be trusted absolutely.
Thankfully we were right! It is clear that there were not
shortcuts taken because we were not here . . . Peggy, Dave
and their team are just exceptional people doing an
exceptional job.”
