11. “Just wanted to let you know how absolutely delighted we are with the Dow Street team, process, progress, and quality of design. The whole experience has been nothing short of excellent since day one, and we are very fortunate to have this group to work with. Your advice and guidance is greatly appreciated by Jeannie and me, and we truly feel that you have our best interest at heart. Yesterday's design ideas are awesome, powder room, the hot tub, pavilion, walk-ways, etc. Your web-based design review process has even inspired me to adopt a similar initiative for our own business. We look forward to the next stage of design refinement, finish level planning, lighting design, etc.”Thank you,JM Design Solutions, Inc. In Our Clients’ Words

13. “I don’t think I could have done this project without them; this was really the only option that would have worked for me. They post pictures online nearly every day so there was no question of what’s going on and if the work is being done. They give you comfort and peace of mind. I can say for sure, I’ve never found this kind of comfort from everyone else I’ve worked with. It was a very thorough process. They posted pictures and interactive updates and called weekly. I told them I hate surprises and they handled everything with the town, all the variances that we needed. From start to finish I felt comfortable.” DW Design Solutions, Inc. In Our Clients’ Words
