“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!”

“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.”
