Jason and Neil are always available to answer your questions, if you need them to see something you’re unhappy with they will be there as soon as they can. I feel like I'm the only one they are working with, because they are there when you need them to be. They treat you like a friend and family. It's very comforting.

When we called Design Build Planners, Jason took time away from his family and came on a Saturday. He was very knowledgeable and through and spent a few hours going over all our damage with us. He was very responsive to all our needs and we have recommended Design Build Planners to our neighbors.

As a design professional that has worked with the Design Build Planners for years, I can easily give a 5-star recommendation. They are the business of “customer service” which is rare in this day and age. Drawing together a complete group of experts to execute each job, they are on top of the project the whole step of the way. This last project was no exception!!

These guys are GREAT!!! I’ve been working Neil and Jason and their clients through a variety of remodelers for quite a number of years now. Every client I’ve ever worked with has been impressively satisfied with the end results! Their professionalism and attention to detail is second to none and the service they offer is immeasurable.

Over the years I have had the opportunity to get to know both Jason and Neil as co-workers and competitors. Their professionalism and integrity, as well as their product knowledge, are second to none. They have insight into design, cost and budget, and I have yet to hear of a dissatisfied customer. They remain a resource for me, and I look forward to working with them in the future on other projects.

I contacted Design Build Planners to schedule a consultation prior to making a home purchase to seek advice from a professional. I spoke with Jason Parsons, who really went out of his way to answer my questions, and research the potential issues I was facing with a renovation. After explaining my concerns, Jason quickly provided several solutions, and answered unforeseen questions.
