      Commercial Office

      The team did an amazing job of revitalizing our tired old office space in an old downtown brick building into a gorgeous, bright, modern design space. It is infinitely better suited for our small, flexible team, and is still a joy to enter even 6 years later. The most brilliant part-- a necessary bookshelf not in the original plan, that now defines the spirit of the space.

      We had a great experience from start to finish. We'd never consider using another general contractor.

      TDB was absolutely the right choice. Designing the home is one thing, but understanding engineering and having the building expertise to guide that process, is what made this experience seamless.

      Pat Hornbrook

      The TDB team was great to work with from the initial design, throughout the build. They were always readily available for any questions and concerns through the entire process. It was a tough time to build due to COVID and material cost fluctuations, but the team delivered a fantastic end product that really showcases their craftsmanship. The end product exceeded my expectations.
