A 250 sq ft addition allowed us to completely open up their existing kitchen and dining room areas, giving this home a new primary suite, office, den, and laundry room. Scroll past the image gallery to see a before and after of the kitchen layout!

I Just Love Our House!
We searched for almost two years for the right contractor, and were almost ready to give up on our project, until we finally found Crafted. Our first attempt was with a local “best-in-class” design-build firm that turned out to be anything but. A few months and thousands of dollars in, we realized they were grossly overcharging us. Desperate to salvage our dream renovation, we pivoted to a contractor whose prices seemed too good to be true, and they were. Within months, it became painfully clear there was no real plan, no timeline, and that he was completely in over his head.
Then we found Crafted, and it was just like the Goldilocks story. One contractor had been way too expensive and disingenuous. Another had been too disorganized and inexperienced. But Crafted? They were just right.
From our first meeting with Jessa and Brian, we knew something was different. They were attentive without being overbearing, reassuring without making empty promises, and genuinely easy to talk with. It was immediately clear they were building a business on quality and reputation, not on exploiting stressed-out homeowners.
We’ve all heard the renovation horror stories. Cost overruns, blown timelines, contractors who disappear for weeks. People will tell you to budget double what you’re quoted and add six months to any estimate because that’s just how renovations go. They’ll insist all contractors operate the same way.
They’re wrong. They just haven’t worked with Crafted.
Our project was substantial: a whole-home renovation with a complete kitchen overhaul and multiple room additions. Crafted delivered on every promise. They finished on time, on budget, and the results are absolutely stunning. When friends come over, they can’t believe it. “They did all of this in six months?” Yes. We still can’t believe it either.
I am extraordinarily detail-oriented, the kind of person who notices every tiny imperfection. I worried we’d drive Brian crazy with our endless small requests and tweaks. Instead, he treated each concern with the same care and importance, no matter how minor. By the end, the Crafted team didn’t just feel like contractors. They felt like family.
Every single day since the project finished, at least one of us looks around and says out loud: “I just love our house.”
That’s the difference Crafted makes. If it’s not clear already, we recommend Crafted 10000%. We’re so impressed with the results they delivered and are so incredibly grateful that we found Jessa & her team.
