Basement Remodel Exceeded Expectations

Andersen Design Group did an awesome job for us on a basement remodel! They were one of three firms interviewed...not only were they the most professional, they were also most respectful of our budget.
Every person they brought into our home did quality work that exceeded our expectations. Maybe just as important, they were all friendly, clean, professional and courteous.
We could not be happier with our new basement. Thanks Andersen Design Group!

Our Project got Bigger and Better

When I began this project, my plan was to do a kitchen renovation but I soon realized that my home needed attention in a variety of areas. I hired the Andersen Design Group because they had experience in a variety of construction/renovation areas. I was very pleased that I did and am extremely happy with the finished project. I now have a new kitchen that incorporates the old dining room, a restored living room and den, a new addition to my home which replaced a deteriorating summer porch, and a new "mud room" with direct access to the garage.
PJ Andersen, the company's president, was very knowledgeable in a variety of areas – architectural design, construction (including kitchen renovations), interior design, landscaping, and more. He was easy to work with, always calm, and responsive to emails and phone calls throughout the project. He always accommodated my requests for changes as the project evolved. We were able to complete the project on time and close to budget. (I added items to the project which increased the cost.) He works with a cadre of excellent sub-contractors – carpentry, plumbing, flooring, masonry, painters, tile men, and electrical. It was evident that they all took real pride in their own workmanship resulting in a quality finished project. They were always courteous, conscientious, and respected my wishes and privacy as they completed their work.
There were many times when the recommendations of Andersen Design made a significant difference in the project but here are just several examples:

1. My original concept was to do a much needed kitchen renovation. But I had a list of additional work that my 60+ year old house needed. PJ showed me how I could incorporate the old porch into the design and add many items on my "to-do list" into this project. This turned out to be a VERY cost effective approach, saved me a tremendous amount of work, and resulted in a wonderful finished product.


2. I did not want the "addition" to look like an add-on. I wanted it to look like a part of the original house. The existing structure had several distinct architectural features that I wanted to build on. For example, many of the doorways and openings from room to room are arched. These arches were continued into the new space making it look like it had always been there. The beautiful but original hardwood floors were masterfully restored and the new flooring in the kitchen and new room were replicated to appear like they had always been there.


3. The ceiling in the den needed to be repaired due to an old leak. Instead of just repairing it, the contractors recommended they install a new ceiling, now allowing for recessed lights and giving the room a new look.

Finally Andersen Design recommended quality cabinet makers, and counter-top professionals who they worked with on my behalf. I had a full choice of products and their costs were reasonable and services were excellent. I would recommend Andersen Design group to anyone without reservations.
