In the summer of 2017 ESSO remodeled the back of our house in the Beaverdale neighborhood of Des Moines. The entire back side of our house had been dark, largely devoid of natural light for the three years prior to this project. The goal, then, was to open it up, to let the light in. After we'd demolished an old greenhouse and gargantuan rotten deck, Austin and Bailey put a gorgeous five foot window in the space where the door to the greenhouse had been, southern light now flooding into our living room. Around the window they installed custom built-in bookshelves, an awesome long bench beneath the window. This is now our daughter's play area and before the remodel this was essentially about 200 square feet of dark, unusable space. Boom. They also built a beautiful, functional deck off of our kitchen and replaced our clunky sliding door with a gorgeous proper door that has added even more light and functionality to the back of our house, this time in the kitchen. In short our entire house feels different - as though we can actually use and enjoy the damn thing! ESSO did this, and I don't know how the whole experience could've been better.

Austin and Bailey were a joy to work with throughout the design and remodel process. Professional workmanship in a timely, cost-effective manner is difficult to come by in the world of General Contractors - and Bailey and Austin delivered! We couldn't be happier with our kitchen backsplash and custom closet design!!

ESSO Build + Design was a joy to work with! They added a backsplash to our kitchen, removed and installed windows in our bedrooms, and did some tile work in our bathroom. All of this was done very quickly and the final result was impeccable. If I had to pick a few people to be on an All-Star team with Ty Pennington, Property Brothers, or Chip and Joanna Gaines, they would be on that team!

What an absolute pleasure it was to work with this contractor. Communicating with them was the best because they fully utilize modern technologies besides just the phone. I was able to send them photos of specifications, email updates as the project progressed, and text last minute instructions about deliveries. That was a valuable time saver. Then when the work began, it was a joy to see two people work so well together. When problems arose, as I expected they would, they assessed the problem and came up with the solution together. It was more than professional. It was like musicians working through a key or rhythm change for a new performance of a favorite song. I was so impressed with ESSO Build & Design that I introduced them to my extended family. You too will want to give ESSO a call when you are ready for your next project. Really. Call them.
