BDC did a great job on my kitchen and primary bath remodel in a DC condo. From the start of my conversation, Emre was very responsive setting up appointments and hearing and understanding my wants and needs. He provided the options and selections to make my dream come true for a spectacular finished product. Atabey project managed the condo association approval, permitting and demolition keeping me apprised of the activity and open issues. When DC finally issued permits (with a nudge from my councilwoman’s constituent services team) the project got started very quickly. Onur took over the project while atabey was out on paternity leave and took it over the finish line. While the knowledge transfer may have been a bit more detailed, we were able to overcome that quickly. Onur is very personable and very responsive to email and text messages. While the project took a bit longer than anticipated, the quality of work was good, Onur clearly explained the challenges and kept the team focused so that the follow-up punch list was relatively short. Scheduling to complete the open issues was easy and timely. Overall, this was a great experience resulting in a one of a kind result.

Got my kitchen remodeled and was very happy with the result. Nadide and Becca made the design and layout easy! Their attention to detail and involvement in the design decisions was great and helped make things run smooth.

Was delighted by my work with Build Design Center on two residential baths. Emre K. was the designer and offered great ideas to bring my vision to life. Onur B. was the project manager; he ran a great crew, was responsive and adapted quickly to my requests, including a last minute change order. Thanks to the whole team; I'm really pleased with the result.

We selected Build for a plumbing and bathroom project based on the positive reviews we saw online. We are glad we did and we're happy to contribute our own positive review. We met Emre at the showroom and after just a few brief conversations and visit to the house, he came up with excellent design ideas that matched our preferences. He was friendly, responsive, and easy to work with. The work started quickly and was finished on time. Our project managers Onur and Atabey were also responsive and made sure we had finished bathrooms we loved. A few minor things could have been better - we'd prefer if they'd updated us on progress more regularly, there were some mixups in products delivered, and some measurements were off (common to old homes like ours). But in the end we are so happy with the finished work and recommend Build to anyone doing a project in DC. We would work with them again.

BDC brought my vision to life. I had a rough layout for the room, and the mock-up from Emre convinced me that BDC was the company I wanted to work with. The end result was beautiful. After the design process, the negotiation of the project itself resulted in some adjustments to the scope of the work that further gave that bathroom character. The project manager was Onur, and the Crew lead was Wilson. The crew struggled with cutting the tiles to accommodate the type of floor I had requested, so additional boxes were ordered. This project took place concurrently with the installation of a new opaque window by a different company. Some coordination was needed so that neither team was there at the same time. The crew asked to confirm finer details on the job, such as the direction of the tile arrangement, the placement of light switches and the ceiling lights. The project manager did a good job in matching up the gold/brass fixtures - I was worried that there would be several different shades. The LED mirror was back ordered, and I didn't want a different design - Onur went the extra mile to order the mirror I wanted. We're now at the punch list phase, when I'm asked to make any minor last minute adjustments. I love the bathroom so much I'm considering reachign out to BDC again for another bathroom remodel.
