Areas Of Satisfaction - Design and product selection are of high-quality.
Remodeling Concerns - Cost was a concern and we worked with them to modify the designs and select products that allowed us to meet our budget goals.
Additional Comments - Thank you for your help, we love our new basement!
Our third time working with Degnan and would have no hesitation to use them again.
Degnan builders did a wonderful job for our house remodel. We had very good communication with them. Our project ran smoothly, on time, in our budget, and we are very happy with the end result. Our Project Manager Jon and all the Degnan Subcontractors did a super job. They were professional, courteous, skilled and communicated with us each day. We are extremely with our remodel and it is exactly what we wanted.
Professional & Organized - Good communication. Our project was on task each day. Subcontractors did an excellent job and worked well together.
Expertise - Degnan laid out our project timeline and was on task. Jon our project manager communicated with us the work to be done each day. We were very well informed.
Schedule - Excellent schedulers. When things changed we were well informed.
Budget - We knew what we wanted and knew the costs involved. We were grateful that our project stayed within our budget.
Construction Quality - Absolutely “the best subcontractors” with quality construction. Our roof unexpectedly failed during our construction. We were not going to replace it for a few more years. T & M Carpentry was amazing and fully replaced our roof within one week - simply amazing. We were SO thankful to get it done. Thank You!
Communication - Excellent communicators. We loved the Degnan process. Their process uses a queuing system, so we were kept well aware of where our project stood and when it would begin and length of time it would take to be completed. Jon our project manager with Degnan checked in with us each morning of work to be done each day. We knew which subcontractor(s) would be working at our house each day. Jon was only a cellphone call away if we had questions..
Problem Resolution - Whenever an issue arose, Jon and the subcontractors were able to use their excellent trades skills to professionally make the correction(s) needed. Always professionally done.
Clean & Safe - We were extremely pleased with how well our trades people cleaned up after their work. They told us they respected our home as if it was theirs.
Employees & Subcontractors - All Degnan Staff & the Subcontractors were very professional & very courteous. We felt like they were our Construction Family.
Value - We knew with having five walls taken down in our house, having a 30-foot support beam installed in our ceiling, and adding back a few bathroom walls, would be a huge project for our home. We wanted to make sure to go with a good Contractor to get the job done at a fair price. We felt Degnan was our best choice to get the job done for us & stay within our budget. We worked well with them and they worked well with us.
Trust - Yes we trusted Degnan to do our remodel and to get our project done correctly. We are thrilled with our remodel with getting our house updated to age in place.
Punchlist - Very happy that everything on our punch list was done in a timely manner.
Easier Than Expected - My husband and I were well informed by Degnan from start to finish. We were very happy to work with Degnan.
Use Comment(s) - We will be happy to do so.
Punctuality/Timeliness - THE BEST!!!
Areas For Improvement - All good. Jon was easy to work with and we let him know of issues along the way, so they would be corrected right away.
Areas Of Satisfaction - In every way Degnan exceeded our expectations with getting our home remodel project done the way we wanted it to be done.
Remodeling Concerns - We like where we live and did not want to move to a condo. With having a smaller ranch home we knew what we wanted for our remodel. We had very little working space in our kitchen & several small rooms. We wanted walls to be removed to have an open concept and let more light in. We wanted to keep our beautiful hickory kitchen cabinets and blend them with adding new sage green cabinets & install an 8-foot island. We wanted walk-in showers and a first floor laundry. Degnan worked with us to make this happen. We couldn’t be happier with our result.
I was impressed from beginning to end with the professionalism of every Degnan Design employee that worked with us on our project. I would definitely recommend their services.
Areas For Improvement - None.
Areas Of Satisfaction - They exceeded our expectations in regards to value, price, and timeline.
Degnan Design-Build-Remodel of Madison brought my dream kitchen to life. I felt that the entire team worked to understand my style and presented options that worked for the space. I appreciate their honesty with what was reasonable with budget and proposed ideas that didn’t compromise my overall taste. I trusted their expertise and they didn’t disappoint.
Professional & Organized - Kelly, lead carpenter, did a great job keeping my posted every step of the way. They were prompt with follow-up and made sure my answers were addressed. It takes a lot of coordination, and Kelly did an excellent job managing the project.
Expertise - Abe and the rest of the team have many years of experience. I really appreciated the design suggestions both Kelly and Dave provided. Abe did a great job in the early conversations and it helped me make my decision to use Degnan Design-Build-Remodel of Madison for my remodeling projects
Schedule - I think Degnan Design-Build-Remodel of Madison did the best they could do given the major shortages and back orders of materials. Kelly even suggested an almost identical product so the completion of our bathroom wouldn’t be delayed 3 months
Communication - Co-construct was a good way to stay in touch and our lead carpenter was always good with phone calls and texts.
The Degnan group was well coordinated. They listened well and did a great job responding to set backs. I’d definitely recommend. I’m a bit picky about electrical design and that is my only critique. After our electrical consultation, when the electrician came to do the work, a lot of our discussed details were lost and either had to be redone or had to be left in a less than perfect state. Every other aspect had a high attention to detail and excellent project management. The Degnan team was caring and giving along the way.
Professional & Organized - Very organized with CoConstruct and hand offs!
Areas Of Sat: Design Selections Process - When we found an interesting fireplace surround, the team was able to identify a way to make it work despite it being a wooden material.
The basement remodel was our second project with Degnan and we're just as pleased with the results as we are with the kitchen. The Degnan team remains transparent through the whole process from design and budget down to any small details that needed to be addressed at the end of the project. It really means a lot to have a team you can trust!
Already have. Will do it again.
Expertise - PJ for MVP! Truly enjoyed working with him and how he took time to explain things thoroughly. We never felt like a burden when we had questions. He is the best and he really made the construction experience the best it could be. David was a powerhouse of information as well. He always looked to solve things the simple way. On the design side, Dave and Morgan were top-notch and really took time to understand what we were going for. They made EVERY SQUARE INCH of our house work for us. We are just thrilled with the function of our home. And we can't forget the admin team. They priced and purchased and responded to questions and feedback like pros. Thank you Kelly, Amy and team! I really have wonderful things to say about everyone we worked with! Abe, Brian, Zach, the list goes one and I sure hope I didn't forget someone, because everyone was a delightful, knowledgeable team player :)
Schedule - Our home was COMPLETELY gutted and rebuilt in 4 months. WOW! And thank you. We were so thrilled with the timeline, and so was our apartment-renting pocketbook.
Communication - The project lead and I had daily check ins (walking by every morning was a good thing, because we were able to problem-solve immediately and quickly), and when there were harder conversations, Degnan always listened and approached a concern with a fair, objective perspective.
Problem Resolution - Degnan was very responsive, even post-construction. We thought our counter had a defect, and was holding onto stains. They brought the counter rep out to check, and they came prepared with a buffet of cleaning supplies to support their visit. Turned out, we didn't have the right cleaning supplies (easy, silly fix on our part), but they were so kind and thorough.
Punchlist - I have no reason to believe that they won't be great about our 1-year warranty.
Areas Of Satisfaction - We are absolutely thrilled with our new old house, and we are glad we chose Degnan to make it happen. Degnan is a reliable, knowledgeable partner who went above and beyond to make things right. I've already referred a couple of friends, and I will keep sending people their way.
Remodeling Concerns - We chose Degnan because we didn't want designers, sub contractors and others in the process to point fingers at each other if (when) something goes differently than expected. They proactively managed everything, and we had a pretty stress-free experience. They also got us back into our home lightning fast, which was a relief for our kids and our sanity!
Additional Comments - Thank you! We surely made the right choice and we appreciate everything your team did for us!
Absolutely
Employees & Subcontractors - All the guys were very professional and fun to deal with. They answered all my questions and were very helpful
See comments on 10. Really enjoyed working with you!
Areas Of Sat: Design Selections Process - My favorite part of the selection process was seeing how I could replace my old bathroom with a new one that was in keeping with my traditional house. It is very contemporary; it looks wonderful.
Problem Resolution - When the flooring was removed it was discovered that the previous remodelers(25years ago) has installed the plumbing incorrectly and it had to be replaced. Kelly Lawton snd his crew did it quickly and the schedule only was extended by a day. Separate reasonable contract as it was not included in the remodeling contract.
Clean & Safe - Never had such considerate workers!
Value - While the total project was more than I had to originally planned to spend it was money well spent.
Easier Than Expected - Definitely!
Punctuality/Timeliness - I was kept informed at all times about the schedule and any changes.
Areas For Improvement - I had a vision of what the hexagonal tile floor would look like from photos shown me in the design process and was alarmed when the installer put the tiles in as they came from the box (telling me that was the only way they could be laid when that was not true as there were six equal sides.) your crew responded and assured me it would look fine when installed. Now I like it but perhaps someone might have consulted with me and the installer before the job was started. Only complaint I have and it in not a serious one in the overall project!
Areas Of Satisfaction - I interviewed 4 companies and chose Degnan because of their design phase and most complete contract I have ever encountered with a number of remodeling jobs over the years! Loved working with everyone on your staff and would recommend Degnan wholeheartedly! I was especially impressed with how well Kelly and Kelly snd David and the rest get along so well and respect each other.
Remodeling Concerns - Brian Teasdale made an excellent presentation and responded to any concerns I had during the time I was interviewing different companies.
Areas Of Sat: Design Selections Process - I enjoyed choosing tiles.
Co-Construct - Fine - no problems.
Areas For Improvement - We did have to tweak a few things but they ended up being what we wanted.
Areas Of Satisfaction - The quality of the final product was nice and well made. Everything functions the way we hoped it would. Overall we are very pleased.
Remodeling Concerns - We had some concerns about some of the features that we weren't sure how to handle. We did a full kitchen remodel and they were very helpful in making suggestions like with the kitchen cabinets, as well as some changes with the cabinetry in the entry way. Overall very helpful.
Additional Comments - We are very happy with the work and would consider them again if we did future remodeling. There people were all very nice and very helpful. They occasionally went out of there way to help fix something if we didn't think it was right. The gave us a lot of additional information, There online communication system was very helpful as well. We were just very pleased overall.
Areas Of Satisfaction - Highly recommend using Degnan Design-Build-Remodel! There communication was very clear! I know what they were going to do, when they were going to do it and the cost involved. Amazing experience!
We've worked with DDBR on multiple projects and they have always produced excellent work and been easy to work with throughout the process. They have excellent designs and we always trust their recommendations will look beautiful!
Easier Than Expected - As repeat clients, they met our high expectations. It was as easy as we expected it to be.
Areas Of Satisfaction - We couldn't be happier with the final product on the exterior of the house. We've received many compliments from friends and neighbors! The new rooms look great and have all the extra space we need for our growing family.
Remodeling Concerns - Budget was our largest concern. Degnan listened to our needs and came up with a design and material selections that fit within our price range.
the Degnan folks helped us look at different options and I'm glad we settled on the one we like.
Areas For Improvement - A few delays here and there, but other than that we were highly satisfied.
Areas Of Satisfaction - Design process was great, and the quality of the end result exceeded our expectations!
Additional Comments - Thanks to the whole Degnan team - a joy to work with!
I have already recommended degnan to neighbors and coworkers
Expertise - PJ was awesome. Saw problems and had solutions ready before we noticed
Problem Resolution - Super easy. Can’t say enough good things about this.
Employees & Subcontractors - Electrician adequate early subcontractors ok. Deganan staff superb
Use Comment(s) - Overall very happy with look and feel of our porch. We enjoy it very much
Areas Of Satisfaction - Design. Quality of craftsmanship. Communication and hassle free corrections
Additional Comments - Happy
Expertise - I was very disappointed that I had to wait to get Anderson windows only to find out they ordered the wrong exterior color. I had to wait 4 more months for them to replace those with the correct color. When they used the grout in the bathroom, they also used the wrong color. There were further delays because the grout had to be removed and replaced with the correct grout.
Problem Resolution - When we did have problems, Degnan Design-Build-Remodel of Madison did resolve them.
Use Comment(s) - I don't think Degnan Design-Build-Remodel of Madison will want to use my comments but they are welcome to use them.
Areas For Improvement - Degnan Design-Build-Remodel of Madison fell short of my expectations by ordering incorrect windows.
Areas Of Satisfaction - In the finished bathroom, we thought the carpenter, John, did a very good job. They customized some touches. They installed a bathroom cabinet on a rail over the sink so that it could be moved. They did a very good job on that.
Areas Of Satisfaction - Their communication and project management was great, which was the big thing we said we needed from them in our initial meeting. Good use of co-construct to discuss things. Everyone was very friendly and easy to work with. Things stayed on track and ahead of schedule.
Remodeling Concerns - I was most concerned about project management and communication. They did a great job with both of these.
We've been happy with all of the work that Degnan has done for us in the past. They seem to be a premium priced product which is the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5.
Areas Of Sat: Design Selections Process - We really appreciate David coming out to our house a couple times to get things looked at and to bring the samples.
Lead Source - We are long time customers.
This is the beginning of the project and will likely recommend after completion
