"Our friends told us we were crazy!  We’d never built a new home, but a lot of them had.  We heard all of their horror stories about the difficulties, misery and stress.  They said they would never dream of building again.  Obviously, they didn’t build with Design Construction

Our experience has been tremendous!  We have altered our home so that it has everything we always wanted.  From planning to pricing through construction, all of the people at Design Construction have been there to help exceed our expectations.  And our new home is situated on a spectacular, private site!  We think you’ll love Stillwood as much as we do!  Better homes really do begin at Design."

 
Sue and Paul Tarr

"We moved into our new home in Stratford Green in late 2006 and we cannot find
enough good things to say about our experience with the Staff of Design Construction -
Judy, Dave, Greg, Wendy, Bob, Dawn, Steve.

Since 1961 we have moved around the United States, have lived in seven states, and
15 houses, so we had a lot of experiences with which to compare this most recent move.
Planning and designing our new home was one of the “easiest” and most “painless”
ventures in which we have ever been involved. The people we encountered at Design are
the warmest, fun-loving, and the most professional staff we have had the opportunity
with which to work.
 
During the nine months of planning and building they literally became an extension of
our family. We will never hesitate to recommend Design Construction, and already
have, as “The Best” Company with which to do business."

     
 

Dave and Marti Dillon

We had people tell us that we could not have chosen a worse time to build a new home the way the economy is today.  We feel just to opposite…we couldn’t have found a better time to build with Design Construction at Stillwood.  We took advantage of pre-model prices, and picked from the best of the available sites – our home has lovely woods on two sides.  We get to enjoy the deer and a wide variety of birds on a daily basis right from the comfort of our family room. 

One of the advantages of Stillwood is that it is so close to restaurants and shopping – we have the best of both worlds…surrounded by nature, but nearby all of the conveniences.  Our home is exactly what we dreamed of and more.  Design Construction has impressed us with their quality of workmanship and the professionalism of their staff.  They also stayed on budget and on time.  Design Construction is a great organization to work with – and we recommend Stillwood to everyone we know.
