“Ken is amazing to work with. He was very knowledgeable and detailed. I couldn't have asked for someone better to tackle a project with.”

“Van Auken Design & build has helped my home buyer clients purchase and renovate properties to create "sweat equity". Paul Van Auken listened specifically to the goals and helped us maximize the space and bring my clients' visions to life. On both properties we worked with strict budgets and deadlines and Paul was able to have the work completed on time and within the allotted budget. Paul communicated efficiently and consistently regarding timelines for completion. In the complete overhaul of kitchens, baths, roofs and electrical, Van Auken Design & Build far exceeded my clients' expectations and did it all with a friendly smile. I will continue to recommend Van Auken Design & Build, as the company produces results that I am proud of.”

“LU Pearce did a major renovation at our home on Gwynn's Island this past year. A new staircase to our second story was designed to replace a poorly situated spiral one. Ken was able to design exactly what we wanted and it came out beautifully, as if it had always been there. A coat closet (under the new stairs), powder room, and new master bath were also part of the project as well as renovation of a guest bath. Thad and the subcontractors were true professionals. They were easy to work with, patient and helpful in decision making from beginning to end. The project was completed within the estimated time frame and I was able to comfortably work with their allowances for lighting, vanities, fixtures etc. to stay on budget. We are very happy with the finished product!”

“Nina and company just finished SAVING me. I am new to the area. New home. New Job. NO TIME to unpack and sleeping on my couch for the last 3 weeks with a bed I could not put together, while being completely overwhelmed with the mountain of unpacking and arranging during my short periods at home. I could not find the time to unpack and haven't had more than two days off in the last 3 weeks either. I was just about to have a melt down, when Nina came to the rescue! She and her staff came into my home and in one day, unpacked me, arranged my home even better than I could have imagined myself. Organised my closets even BETTER than I thought she could! I am sitting here at my computer feeling peace. I walk into my home feeling peace! Thank you Nina. I'm sold on your talent for understanding and putting it to work.”
