Best Interior Construction Contractor Saint Louis Near Me

Tim Jax: We highly recommend LU Design Build. They completed our whole house remodel including all three floors, a gut-rehab of our basement, moving load-bearing walls, remodeling the kitchen and bathrooms, as well as adding a covered deck.LU presented the most innovative layout design when other firms we had bid the work chose to stay within the lines. Everyone on their team was collaborative, calling out opportunities to optimize our build. From design to project management, to carpenters to painters to electrician and the rest, all the team members were excellent.A notable reason we recommend them is for how they handled two issues (a very small number considering the scope of the project). They presented options to resolve and told us the most important thing was that we loved the home. No hassle, just getting it done right.LU is not an inexpensive contractor, but they are extremely high value.

Jenna Polk: LU DESIGN BUILD did a wonderful job on our renovation. Our project included first floor layout changes including updating our kitchen, fireplace remodel, expanding our master bathroom, creating a mudroom and powder room. They made the whole process go smoothly and we loved everyone on their team.Their team is very professional, with high quality design, project management and construction, and the overall project was well priced.I highly recommend using them for your next project!

Joan Deelo: LU Design completed a kitchen renovation for us. We were completely satisfied with all aspects of their work from the design phase through completion of the project. We changed the footprint of our kitchen and family room and Rochelle did a great job designing a space to match our vision and needs. Adam and the construction team are all very skilled, conscientious, and take pride in completing the job perfectly. They were respectful of our home and family and we enjoyed having them work on our project. All of our questions were answered promptly. We would highly recommend LU Design to our friends and family for any type of home construction or renovation project.

Jason Barczewski: We finished our basement with LU and are in love with our new space. It was so much fun to do this project with the entire LU team. It is by far the nicest part of our house now. They are very responsive and took care of everything. It was so nice to have a project management team see such a big protect thru. We can’t wait to do another project with them.

Melissa Smith: We met with LU Design to finish approximately 1100 sq. ft in our basement on October 25, 2019. We provided detailed drawings of the proposed design and highlighted the expensive items that were “must-have” on our list including enlarging 2 windows for proper egress in the bedroom and living space, extensive plumbing work for a full bathroom, kitchen and moving sewer stack. We spent over 2 hours discussing the details and were provided a ballpark estimate of $80,000. We signed the agreement and paid $4,000 based on this mutual understanding.While we provided detailed architectural drawings, we were open to hearing any ideas for the space that could enhance the use and provide a separate workout area. We received several iterations with suggested modifications to the original, many of which were absurd (for example, one such suggestion moved the bedroom and provided an egress window that would have been located under the garage). We also received a number of finish suggestions to choose from which also lacked attention to detail (proposing light fixtures and ceiling fans where there was ductwork / low ceiling height). There was a concerning lack of attention to detail on these many items (which were available in the drawings provided up front). In the end, we had the original design we provided with 2 proposed changes – moving the bathroom and bedroom to the opposite side.With no mention of the budget during this process, on December 6, 2019 we finally received an estimated cost of $140,000 based on the original scope. We were also provided 2 cheaper options which reduced the finished space to 850 and 950 sq. ft. and eliminated all of the must-haves, including plumbing and egress, for a budget of $80,000 and $100,000, respectively. We made no scope changes from the original ask and LU was unable to articulate anything, other than they “messed up”, to explain the $60,000 or 75% increase. We requested a refund of the $4,000 payment as the basis for this agreement was false and we did not receive anything of value. LU Design offered a $1,000 refund as they “had spent time on the project”. I responded that I felt the amount was insufficient. I have never heard back and have not received any refund. They responded to my compliant with the BBB with blatant lies. Buyer beware here, I feel like an idiot for not ensuring we had our verbal agreement in writing. Never trust this business on their word.

Jamie Blum: We hired LU Design to build a bar in our basement. I can't say enough good things about their professionalism and hard work. We are incredibly pleased with the results, and we've been recommending them to anyone who will listen!

Paul Deal: I've been involved with several projects. LU has very talented designers and their designs are implemented professionally by their top-notch crews. Highly recommended.

Dustin McLinden: Solid General Contractor. We trust LU and Luke's team with any project. Their workmanship and service are top notch.

Jared Howe: Lucas really helped bail me out of a project I had some GC issues on. Thanks Lucas!

Larry Gard: An awesome group of people! I highly recommend them if you are considering a remodeling project.

James Carlton: LU Design Build was the company I went with after much research to complete a kitchen remodel. From the beginning I was impressed with how they handled themselves starting with a personalized plan, an in house interior designer who made sure we LOVED everything about our kitchen and the project manager who ensured timely completion. Would highly recommend and HAVE recommended to friends and co-workers already.

Adam Hautly: I love working with Jen, Luke, and their team. They are great at explaining the entire process of what we want done to our home, and I love that their design is part of the process.

Dick Sant: Luke is amazing to deal with. Going with a design/build outfit like Luke's streamlines the entire operation.

Kennard Wells: I know Covid and been affecting a lot of businesses, are you guys still operating? I've tried calling and emailing but still haven't received a response. When we meet a few years back I always said I would contact your business to get my projects started. If you could I'd still like to give you all a shot before going elsewhere

Robert M: Positive:ProfessionalismKim bid a small job at my place and was head-and-shoulders above every other contractor I spoke with regarding her professionalism and knowledge.

Melissa Marciano: To make a very long story short as possible. This company is terrible. Contracted them to do a kitchen/dining room with a tentative schedule of about 15 days. I did not have a kitchen for 5 months. I provided materials such as counters, cabinets, flooring, tile, grout, etc, and they in same way caused damage to all of my materials. The first carpenter was terrible, ripped a cabinet, which was screwed in, out of the wall and hit it with a hammer in anger. Used 2 island cabinets ($500 each) as saw horses. I finally requested a new carpenter, and several cabinets and doors needed to be replaced. Constant no shows with workers. At one point when I asked to see the permits she was charging me $720 for, she informed me she did not get the permits. When I asked why they were on the updated invoice provided several days previous, she said the amount would be subtracted at the end and I just did understand her invoicing system. The actual contractor was never present, and when she was never seemed to know what was going on. She takes accountability for NOTHING. Now trying to blame me for delays, though not sure why when there is email and text messages showing her claims are absolutely false. Would not return my house key without final payment which she wanted immediately following final invoicing, seems she didnt want me to have the chance to review it. So I've needed to change 3 dead bolts. There was no finishing work completed, parts of the job left undone and everything was done poorly. I have spent countless hours sanding drywall, caulking, fixing trim, etc, just to make it all look somewhat decent. Then at then end when she sent final invoice, told me she went ahead a removed appliance installation because she couldnt find the gas line for the stove, and left my appliances in my livingroom. I could not believe after leaving me with no kitchen for 5 months she had the audacity to do that. This has been the absolute worst experience I could imagine. Do not use this company, they have no idea what they are doing. They will give you a confusing invoice, overcharge you, take your money, and destroy your home.

Dr Rajiv Yadava: They are some of the best people in the construction business to deal with. Honest and want to help you. I have dealt with them for multiple jobs. 2nd generation in the industry and with a bright future in my opinion.
