Stratas Design Build

We had wanted to gut and extend our home for quite a few years and after meeting with a few firms we decided to move forward with Stratas Design Build. They had completed a number of similar projects in our neighborhood and their clients had only great things to say.

Having one point of contact throughout the entire permitting process was key for us as the thought of tackling it ourselves was daunting. Andy was great at providing ideas in terms of how big to make the addition and was able to provide helpful insight when it came to the technical aspects. The fun part was working with Sam and Lia for the entire interior design of the home. We had done a smaller renovation on our previous home and chose the finishes ourselves, we quickly realized that approach was not going to work for a project of our size and were grateful for their hard work. We didn't fully grasp the complexity involved with all of the high end finishes and how all the components need to be designed to work together. One service we did not fully appreciate until after was the product fulfilment. All we had to do was work with Sam and select our choices and all orders and deliveries for things like tiles, countertops, flooring and window coverings were taken care of.

The build process went smoothly, we had originally targeted 10-12 months. There were a few structural issues with the foundation that had to be dealt with, and we ended up moving in just around the one year mark. Our site manager Brody was very knowledgeable and really helped bridge the gap from our original concepts to a finished product. He was specifically well informed product wise and really worked with us on our window and siding package. We were very specific with what we wanted and he was able to bring all the trades and suppliers together to make it happen. Overall we were very satisfied and would recommend Stratas Design to anyone looking for a turn key, high end renovation experience.
