Chris did a really nice job of remodeling our bathroom from the ground up. The final room looked like the renderings, so we knew what to expect along the way. He was communicative about everything from the project timeline to when he would arrive every day to start work. He worked extremely hard through unexpected challenges to make sure we were satisfied with the results.

Chris is great. He built an elevated floor and installed the tile floor on it for us. Finished elevated tile floor looks beautiful. Friends and family who visited our house were very impressed with his work and gave us compliments. We would definitely hire him for more work down the road.

Chris was easy to collaborate with. He worked on two projects for me — an accent wall (smoothing our dry wall, trim design and attachment, paint) and a pony wall in the master (drywall + wood shelves). I brought him my ideas and he was able to iterate and refine them with me as he used his 3D modeling software and his knowledge of materials. Chris is a good communicator, and brings integrity to his work. He is a special combination of artist and engineer, which to me was important. He knows that his projects affects people’s workflow and day to day life. He puts the user of the space at the center of the problem solving process. Thanks Chris for your quality work and collaborative spirit!

Chris did a great job building some shelves for my under stairs storage. He got the job done quickly and worked through all of the challenges professionally. And I loved the mock-up he provided beforehand! It assured me he knew what I was looking for. I'll definitely be hiring him again for my future woodworking projects.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
3D renderings are FREE with hire. As well as consultations and home visits. However, I unfortunately do not have the luxury to drive around town in Austin traffic giving away free information and FREE design work. That being said my consults are $79 with visit. And my design work is package based. Please note, my consult fee JUST covers the cost of my lead to reach out to you through the app. We loose money and time to come and talk with you. So we just ask that you know and honor that please.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
B.A in Design. 5+ years owning my own company.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Anyone can say they know how to do something. But the work speaks for itself. Reviews and pictures are clearest metric for deciding on a pro.
