Nancy Garth3 days agoI would recommend DDR for your projects. This is the Third project in 6 years (a deck covering 16 X 22, enclose the deck covering to make a all season sunroom 19 X 19, install side deck covering) The process went well from drafting up the floor plans to agreeing on a price. From start to finish on each of the jobs they cleaned up the job site. The project manager will keep you updated on each stage of the project. Two of my friend liked how our areas turned out that they had DDR do projects at their home and were very satisfied. If you need a project done, I would definitely recommend you call DDR to design and complete your project.+2Posted on Google
Pamela Lunsford7 days agoDistinctive Design Remodeling is an extremely professional design company. From our first interaction with Kevin, who listened to our vision of a covered patio space, to working with our project manager, Dallas, who was on-site nearly every day, we had a great experience. Their construction crews went to work daily and completed the task at hand even if it meant working 10 hour days in the heat. Dallas kept us informed of next steps in the process and we were amazed at their efficiency in getting the project completed so quickly. Our building and electrical inspections passed with a score of 100%. We wish we had done this years ago! We now have a wonderful additional living space that we will enjoy for years to come. Well done, DDR! We are so pleased.+1Posted on Google
David May10 days agoWe had a new 14’x20’ covered back patio installed from DDR. We had a great experience from the initial quoting visit all the way through until the project was completed.

The entire project was completed in less than 2 weeks once started! Our family will enjoy this nice addition for many years to come!+2Posted on Google

He was very personable and timely at responding back to us if we had any questions or concerns. The various work crews that DDR used for our project were all very hard working, efficient and courteous. We couldn't have asked for a better overall experience with them completing our project. This is a project that we had been waiting to do for years and to see it come to fruition and be more than thrilled with our finished product makes us wish we had done it much sooner! Big shout out to Nate and all of his work teams that enabled our project to become a reality!+0Posted on Google
Austin Kucera39 days agoWe had a fantastic experience with Distinctive Design Remodeling from start to finish! The entire process was easy, professional, and honestly better than we could have hoped for. From our very first meeting with Jesse, we knew we were in good hands. He took the time to meet with my wife and me, walk through our options, and help us come up with a design that was exactly what we were looking for. We also really appreciated Jesse working with us to get our project into their already busy schedule. Once the project got underway, we couldn’t have asked for a better project manager than Leroy. From his first visit, he was professional, knowledgeable, and great to work with. We did experience some delays due to weather, which was completely outside of their control, but whenever Leroy and his team were able to be on site, they were fast, efficient, and did excellent work. The finished product truly exceeded our expectations. They took our vision and created the covered patio of our dreams, and we’re already looking forward to enjoying it with family and friends for many years to come. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would highly recommend Distinctive Design Remodeling to anyone considering their next home project. A huge thank you to Jesse, Leroy, and the entire team for making our vision a reality!+5Posted on Google

Noah Curtis72 days agoI am very pleased with the both the results and the process of my garage project with DDR. Communication was excellent throughout the project. Nate, our project manager, kept me informed every step of the way, answered my questions promptly, and always followed through on what they said they would do. I was very happy that we had Nate as our PM for the project. There was never a second of doubt during the process. I have had experiences with contractors in the past not communicating well and having major delays. I did not feel this way with DDR, any time something came up I was promptly informed and felt well taken care of. We had the previous structure demolished and rebuilt from the ground up, the entire process took about 7 weeks and honestly, it would have been faster had weather not gotten in the way. I was expecting it to take way longer. I highly recommend DDR if you want someone to build a garage quickly, with care and excellent communication!+1Posted on Google

Mauricio Casares81 days agoWe worked with DDR to finish our basement which was unfinished when we purchased the house. We ended up adding about 1,300 sq ft of living space to the basement, with two legal bedrooms, which each required an egress window, and we also added a full bath downstairs. The project even started earlier than expected and ran on time and smoothly. It was extremely easy to work with them! Brandee was the main contact for our project, and she was always responsive, kept a running list of our requests and made sure to keep me updated weekly, or anytime I had a question. The project was finished on time, no issues, any minor hiccups were resolved promptly and properly. I would highly recommend working with them and will definitely call them for our next project that is within their scope! They handled all permits and inspections, and we did not have to worry about any of that. We got several quotes before we started this project, and they were very reasonably priced, and worth every penny!+5Posted on Google

The project—a complete bedroom and bathroom renovation—was finished ahead of schedule, and the end result met our expectations. Overall, the process felt well managed and organized. Kyle provided consistent, detailed updates throughout the project, which we appreciated and helped us stay informed at each stage. At times, we personally would have preferred a bit more in-person check-ins or phone calls, but that likely comes down to client preference and didn’t take away from the quality of the work or the final outcome. Overall, we’re pleased with how everything turned out and would recommend the team.Posted on Google

Charlotte Brandenburg263 days agoI started this journey as a dream with Distinctive Design Remodeling in May of 2025. They broke ground for the project August of 2025. The house was owned by my grandmother before her passing. I bought the house November 2001. I always wanted a larger master bedroom with a bathroom on-suite. And now my dream has come true thanks to Distinctive Design Remodeling. Jon was the overseer and Trudy was the project manager. Trudy was here everyday or by phone to make sure everything was going as planned. I picked out what I wanted and everything fell into place week by week. We had foundation diggers and brick layers. Then on to the walls going up. Trevor was the drywall person who did a wonderful job. The electricians and plumbers were also wonderful. Michael was the last to arrive and he put the vanity and the towel rods in. Michael also designed the railing for patio and put the swing up. He did an amazing job. My dream was completed October 31, 2025 with everything I wanted. I am having a wonderful time enjoying the completed project.Posted on Google

Dennis Murphy277 days agoWhen my wife and I were looking to get a garage built, we researched quite a few companies. And we had no luck, or the company had no time. DDR was very willing to listen to what we were looking for. Right from the beginning, we met with Kevin Kelly who took down all the information on what we were looking for, and the budget we have. Once Kevin took down all the measurements, and took pictures of where the garage will be built. Within two weeks, Kevin brought plans for the garage. Both my wife and I were very pleased with what we saw. A few days after that, we both agreed to the garage that will be built. A week later we received a email from our project manager, Nate Warner. Nate is a very knowledgeable person when it comes to the building part of it. His crew is spot on, top notch. The concrete expert, Kevin Setters are up front if there are any issues. The build started on 12 November 2025, and it’s been non stop. One thing that’s been so good is Nate is always reachable, and he will get back to you, not ignore you. And in this business, that is JOB #1. DDR is a company that is not build it fast, and “thank you”. And to us, it’s the most important thing.Posted on Google
Nancy Pittman281 days agoDDR was a great choice for my basement construction project. From the time I met with Kevin in June for an initial consultation to the completion of DDR's work on the basement in early September, everything went smoothly and on time. Kyle, my project manager, was especially great in communicating all the details and timelines for carpenters, plumbers, electricians, and inspectors. He was also very helpful in terms of preparing me for what I needed to have ready for the contractors and offering suggestions for outside experts who laid the floors, painted the walls, hung the cabinets, and installed the granite. When we hit a snag, Kyle always made it right, giving me the information I needed to make decisions and over and above help if something went wrong. I highly recommend DDR!Posted on Google
Lynn Placke283 days agoDDR is a great company. From the first visit with sales representative Kevin Kelly to working with Onsite Project Manager Justin Gash. All work crews were professional, courteous, and attentive to the constant need to respect our home during construction as the sunroom addition required an 8' x 8' opening into our kitchen. All work was well done! I would recommend DDR for any construction project.Posted on Google
Kathy Amburgey286 days agoWe highly recommend DDR for any home improvement projects. Trudy, our Project Manager kept us apprised of what to anticipate on a daily basis.

Christopher Cloud323 days agoI chose DDR for my covered patio project because they did several similar projects in my neighborhood and their work looked like it had always been part of the house and very well- built. The salesman was very knowledgeable and heard us out, and made a plan to give us more than we imagined based on our price point, addressing all our wants and then some. They provided CAD blueprints, pulled all permits and scheduled all inspections. All work was finished from framing crew to final inspection in less than two weeks. The project manager gave daily updates and personally oversaw the work. We definitely feel like we got our money's worth with DDR and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to add outdoor living spaces.Posted on Google

Jonathan Hartson348 days agoWe utilized DDR to build our accessory dwelling unit (ADU). The carriage house is positioned between the main residence and the alleyway with the separation balancing the need for privacy with the convenience of having a multigenerational home. DDR was able to make our vision into a reality by tailoring the build to match our requirements and services to fit our budget. The service our Project Manager, Chris, provided was above our expectations with communication and coordination simplifying the process. The final product is a new structure which architecturally blends in to the aesthetics of the neighborhood. Grandma loves the above garage apartment and extra time with the grandkids, our kids enjoy spending time there after school, and we appreciate the extra help with errands and childcare. DDR was able to customize the build to support the specific needs of an aging adult. They made recommendations and modifications to the stairs reducing the rise of steps and second hand rail. That also changed the entryway to be raised to reduce a possible tripping hazard over the threshold. That level of planning to meet the needs of our family and attention to detail was amazing. I highly recommend using DDR if you are considering building an ADU.+1Posted on Google

Gary Whitaker361 days agoDistinctive Design Remodeling (DDR) There’s an old saying in the contracting business that goes something like, “Every client wants a high quality job done at a bargain price and they want it completed in record time. And, they can have any two of those, but they can never have all 3.” Well that may be true about most contractors, but based on our experience, DDR knocked that old saying right out of the ball park! And while it did take a few weeks for the design and permitting phases to get done, once the project began it was all hands on deck. Our project manager, Kyle, was there most days making sure everything was done right, and if something wasn’t to his liking, he had it corrected. On one occasion I looked out and noticed Kyle was closely examining the landing, steps and railing the crew had installed. He was looking at it from various angles, making a notes in his phone. The next day he was back marking parts with orange spray paint. He told us he’d marked a few things he wanted redone. By the time the trim carpenters had redone those few things, we had a noticeably improved landing, steps and railing. And while that was the most noticeable thing, there were several other situations where he had things redone that he felt could be improved. So a high quality of workmanship was apparent from the beginning. I’m sure all DDR project managers are outstanding, but if they’ll let you request a project manager, we highly recommend Kyle Quillin. At our initial appointment with Kevin in mid to late March I asked how long it would take to complete our new sun room. Kevin quoted 6 weeks depending on weather but no more than 8 weeks. That sounded great to us as we’d seen other contractor’s yard signs around our neighborhood doing projects similar to our’s that would be there for 6 to 8 months. So we signed on that day. Our sunroom was started in mid August. Two days shy of 4 weeks later, DDR had completed their portion of the project. How’s that for ‘record time’? So, we’ve gotten a high quality job done in record time. Hence, we shouldn’t expect to have gotten it done at a bargain price, right? Well here’s the thing, the price was quoted up front the day we signed the contract. We knew it was a bargain BEFORE we signed. What I haven’t yet mentioned is I was in the contracting business for 14 years after retiring from my first career. And I knew it was a bargain price before we signed on the dotted line. And the rest of this story is, DDR will be starting another project for us at another property of ours a little later in the fall! How’s that for a recommendation?

Anthony Pridemore372 days agoFrom start to finish my experience with DDR was smooth and effortless. I was honestly shocked how fast our project went, one day the foundation was laid the next day i came back and the whole thing was framed out! Very impressive!! My project manager Nate was extremely informative, professional, and I cannot express how refreshing his communication was during the whole build which i find rare these days. I would definitely recommend them, and will be using them again for a future project. Thank you DDR team!Posted on Google
Mike Cocanougher377 days agoThe process to build a screen porch was so easy. Met with the designer first. He listened to what we wanted and designed it perfectly. The different crews that worked on the project were great. We new when they were coming to the house and was told beforehand what to expect from each crew. Each crew cleaned up every day. The porch looks great and makes the house look better. I would suggest to anyone doing a remodel project to call DDRPosted on Google

Patty Nutter386 days agoAdded a Sunroom and turned an unfinished basement into an apartment. Distinctive Design did a fantastic job. They were more than willing to work with me when I wanted to change the dimensions of a room because they understand things can change. They kept to their promised schedule and were great to work with. I highly recommend Distinctive Design Remodeling.+5Posted on Google

Dianna Wood404 days agoDDR added a Sunroom as an addition to our home. From start to finish the experience was better than expected. These days it is hard to find people that really care about doing the job correctly, but we did not have that issue with DDR. Pat met with us first to "sell" us on DDR he was great. Justin was our project manager and he was a pleasure to work with and we had a great relationship with him throughout the project. Any issues we may have had were addressed promptly. I appreciated the patience Justin showed, I had tons of questions and concerns and he addressed each one without even a hint of being frustrated with me. He showed up to check on things almost daily. It will be strange not chatting with him daily. I didn't always understand the order in which they did certain jobs, but the job was done! The project started on time and ended as expected. I love the room and cant wait to begin using it. Let me also say, understand that undertaking any project , such as an addition, there will be issues. There will never be a time when something doesn't go smoothly. I would highly recommend DDR and the team to do any project you might have. Big shout out to Kevin, G, Curtis, Rhoul(?) and to all the team that worked on the project. Justin....you ROCK! Thanks to DDR for a job well done.Posted on Google
