“You Get What You Pay For. This is my third project with BRDB and a fourth is in the works. Craftsmanship. Clean work-site. They do what they say they will do and finish on time. They communicate frequently and work collaboratively with the homeowner. BRDB is ideal for people who want a high quality work product. I am sure they are not the lowest price option, but you do get what you pay for.

“Very positive experience with Blue Ridge with a large project where we added a bedroom and bath to the back of the house. These builders deliver high quality workmanship in a timely manner. The workers from this family owned operation show up regularly, work rain snow or sleet, and work long and hard. They are tidy, considerate, and trustworthy. We recommend them highly.”

It’s been almost a year since Blue Ridge Design Build finished renovated my kitchen and I’m just as happy today as the day they finished. They also did my breakfast area and powder room. Susan, our kitchen designer, was wonderful to work with. She listened to me when I had strong ideas, helped guide me in areas where I found the choices a little overwhelming, and came up with a design that I loved. Richard, our carpenter, transformed those ideas into reality. His workmanship is superior. He was at our house almost every day, kept the job site very clean, and our communication was excellent. Although surprises are inevitable when doing a major home renovation (our subfloor was in pretty rough shape), I was very pleased at how close Richard was able to keep to the schedule. I can’t recommend Blue Ridge Home Improvement enough and would definitely use them again.

“BRDB removed our aging deck and built a completely new, updated, and beautiful deck for our home this summer. Two assets of BRDB that stand out are #1 their attention to detail in both the project planning phase (no surprises) and also in the quality of their workmanship(they definitely take pride in this) and #2 their thorough, open, and respectful communication throughout the project with the client, especially by Logan, our project manager. These two company qualities reduced our stress and gave us confidence on a daily basis that our new deck would turn out to be a great asset for our home. We also appreciated details such as punctuality of the workers, cleanliness of the worksite, and great work done by subcontractors. We had an excellent experience with BRDB and are very happy with both the process and outcome of our deck project, and highly recommend them!”

“We hired BRDB after they met us at the house we had just purchased to discuss our goals for the project. We hired them for a major renovation (turning two small bedrooms into a master bedroom and en suite bathroom) as well as to enclose our porch. From the start they were forthright with us about our ideas and their recommendations. I think what we found most reassuring (and different from other contractors we’ve worked with) is that they listened to us. They listened to our needs and wants and understood this project was about us. They made suggestions and recommendations, but never tried to force their ideas on us, and always respected our contribution (we nearly always went with their ideas and suggestions – they are the pros after all, but I always knew the decisions were up to us). The work they did was excellent and Logan always made sure that we were satisfied with the results. When there were delays (things out of their control) they were honest and up front about how that would impact the projects, and I was impressed with how they were able to be flexible and adjust the original timeline to ensure the projects were always moving forward. I would feel comfortable recommending them to a friend or loved one for a remodel project, and wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to them if we need anything else done in the future.”

“Quality, Excellent Communication, Professionalism.I just completed two projects with Blue Ridge Design Build: an enclosed sunroom and a screen patio. I HIGHLY recommend BRDB. I had a WOW experience. The project manager assigned on site with the project had excellent quality workmanship, was courteous and consciousness about the work environment, neighboring houses potential disruption, left the workplace neat and tidy every evening, excellent communication all the way through the project and a far better experience than anticipated. Hands down, the BEST contractor I have every worked with. Excellent communication and no surprises.”

“From the design phase, through choosing cabinets, countertop, flooring, lighting, etc., our experience with Blue Ridge was extremely positive. Their designers listened to our needs and found the materials exactly as we requested. Once the demolition and construction started, their carpenter was there every day, working all day, cleaning up each evening. He was personable, efficient, obviously very skilled and answered all of our questions when asked. Our new kitchen is just what we wanted. I would highly recommend Blue Ridge Design Build to anyone looking for an honest, efficient company that will work with you to be sure you are totally satisfied with the final project.”

“Our bath remodeling project was very well managed from initial quote to final wrap up. There were upsets with the tiler along the way but Blue Ridge Design Build responded to the issues professionally and was always in full support of the customer. Their project management of change orders was very well controlled. In the end we knew exactly what we were paying for in explicit detail. They were high quality from beginning to end, and we are very pleased with the final outcome.”

“We love all of our projects that BRDB has worked on with us here at our house. Beginning in the fall of 2009 with our master bedroom/bathroom addition plus kitchen extension, many exterior improvements, and two decks also completed in Spring 2010. In summer 2013, BRDB remodeled our entire basement family room, bathroom and laundry room. This fall of 2016, we renovated our kitchen with the amazing skills and terrific help of Richard on-site and excellent input of Tim, along with many great suggestions from Susan! Thanks for all the super efforts and beautiful results. We enjoy all of it and bless all of you at BRDB.”

“We moved from Chicago to Blacksburg to retire, bought a house that needed some updating, and went looking for a contractor. We worked with a great home improvement contractor in Chicago, where there is lots of competition and choices, so we were a little apprehensive about finding a contractor as good in Blacksburg. Even by Chicago standards, Blue Ridge is exceptional. Before we moved in, on a very tight timeline, Blue Ridge removed installed shelves/cabinets/desks, moved walls, remodeled a bathroom, installed new lighting, converted a laundry room to a wet bar and repainted the interior. Since we moved in, Blue Ridge remodeled all our other bathrooms, converted a garage into a den, rewired much of the house, added electrical service, built new piers under the foundation and installed a spiral stairway to open up a previously inaccessible loft area. These guys can do anything. The best part is – and anyone who has ever worked with an BRDB contractor will understand this – their estimates were spot on every time, there were never any hidden surprises (because they did their homework before giving us the estimates), they started and finished the jobs when they said, the work was very high quality and the guys on the job were always finding simple little improvements to make along the way that, in the end, made a big difference. I cannot express how rare this combination of attributes is. I should also point out that we have friends who have used other contractors in the area who bid lower than Blue Ridge but invariably discovered hidden problems that significantly drove up the cost and duration of the jobs. Over multiple projects, this has never happened to us with Blue Ridge. We’re fans for life.”

“Blue Ridge Design Build was amazing to work with. From the start, they worked with us to design our bathrooms just the way we wanted them. They worked with us patiently through the entire process and gave time and attention to every detail. They were great at communication, friendly, hard working and talented! We had a wonderful experience with Blue Ridge and would highly recommend them.”
