Courtenay is an outstanding resource for big picture ideas, as well as all the details. She is patient and thinks things through, leaving you feeling at ease with ideas and next steps. Whether I'm coming to her needing designs for a blank slate, or wanting reassurance on something I've already sunk my teeth into, she always makes me think outside the box and consider all angles.

As a painter and paper hanger I have done numerous projects with Courtenay from Martire Custom Homes. Time and time again I am impressed with her attention to detail, and her skill at choosing the right furnishings to either match the existing style of the home, or to create an entirely new one. My first project with Courtenay was back in August of 2015, and my most recent was at the beginning of the year. She has always been up to date on industry trends and continues to search for creative solutions to the clients desires.

I worked with Courtenay Martire on a project for a luxury condominium association. Her design for the space was exceptional. It was a difficult project requiring significant effort to build consensus and receive approval from a board and community with wildly differing opinions, not only in design but also in the use of the space. Courtenay expertly navigated through the roadblocks, and I was extremely pleased with the results. I would strongly recommend Courtenay for any design project. It was a pleasure to work with her.

We have used Martire Custom Homes for multiple projects and have always been blown away with the final result. Courtenay's design ideas are top notch. She comes up with ideas that we had never even thought of, making the final product unique and beautiful. They do a fantastic job of making your space work for your family. Taking the time to discuss all of your needs for the space and day to day activities. They were always in communication with us throughout the projects and helped us pick out the best materials for our needs. When we decided to add another area to the plan, they were very flexible and were happy to take care of it for us mid-project. I can't say enough about them and we will be using them for another project in the near future. We are very much looking forward to working with them again.

Thank you, Beth and Bob! I’ve equally loved our spaces we’ve created together for your homes. Your ability to trust our process and allow us to push the parameters while having creative Cart blanch, has been thrilling. We are excited to dive into yet another (our third) design and renovation project together! Truly we are grateful for your business.

Martire Custom Homes built a new addition to our family home. We met and interviewed a dozen design build firms and choose Martire Custom Homes for their referrals and past projects we had seen in our area. From the moment our initial construction meetings jumped off, our decision was confirmed to be promising. Courtenay’s unique approach to design and Problem solving were impressive and resonated with our goals. The ideas she brought to fruition were something I could never even imaged. The attention to every detail and her unique ideas we are eternally grateful for.

We always enjoy working with other local small businesses, especially ones that are familiar with how to use our products. Martire Custom Homes always stays in touch with us often when we're working on a project together. It is always a pleasure working with this team and we highly recommend them if you are in our area!

I have used Martire Custom Homes for multiple projects on two different homes. The attention to detail, thoughtfulness and timely completion of each project far exceeded my expectations. Courtenay and Pete are lovely to do business with and I hope to have to opportunity to work with them again in the future.

I have been working with Courtenay for a year and a half now. She has helped me with several projects! We started with simple things like paint color, furniture placement, wallpaper and lighting selections but moved on to a complete basement remodel. Her amazing eye, extensive knowledge of the industry and forward-thinking had everything turn out beautifully!! She is easy to work with and now I wouldn't do anything in my house without her input!

Courtenay is wildly creative and incredibly knowledgable. She brought incredible ideas our project all while keeping things practical and within our budget. She has an innate ability to understand what the client wants (even if the client doesn't know.. like me) and embody their style.

We did a complete renovation of our first floor. Our house had last been renovated in the 80s and had an "80s country kitchen vibe" throughout the house. I had a vision of wanting to brighten up the house and I had a few magazine clippings. Courtenay helped me think through all of the details and brought our dream house to life on time and right on budget. She even had a "big reveal" for us when we were out of town. We wanted to leverage some of the existing bones of our house, but completely change the way it looked. She helped re-finish our hardwood floors, pick out beautiful custom cabinetry and even challenged me on things I wanted to keep. Courtenay had some really creative ideas to deal with some of our design challenges. It was a very organic creative process. We continued to collaborate to customize the reno. The end results wasn't cookie cutter and was exactly what we were looking for! Photos of our reno. are listed under "classic contemporary" in the Martire Custom Projects section.

We were very pleased with the work we had done. Martire did a great job on our rehab. Courtenay had some great design plans that we never thought of. She is very creative, with great ideas. They were very budget oriented, and informed us of any costs involved. Highly recommended for any work we may need.

Martire Custom Homes renovated my kitchen, dining room, family room and bathroom and did an amazing job! Courtenay took the vision I had in my head, added her brilliant design and style, and made it a beautiful reality. The project was done on time, on budget, and the process was so much fun! I highly recommend Martire Custom Homes. Simply the best.
