We recently worked with Todd and his team on a remodel of our kitchen, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Our kitchen was old and decrepit, with banged-up floors and outdated cabinets. The layout was also problematic, with the dishwasher positioned in a way that made it impossible to open without closing a drawer. Todd's team made some fantastic changes, including repositioning the dishwasher for better functionality and installing a new, perfectly proportioned island with storage and seating. We also replaced our gas range with an induction oven, which we love. One of our biggest motivations was to have a better view, and Todd's team delivered by adding big glass doors that open up to our backyard. Special thanks to Garrett and our project manager, Tony, who were both incredibly attentive throughout the process. We highly recommend Todd and his team for any remodeling projects!

We initially hired Schulte to remodel our basement but we ended up having them remodel our entire house, and are so glad we did. Dan did an excellent job coming up with clever solutions to fit all we wanted in a small footprint—like having the stairwell cut into the bottom of a bathroom vanity that would be covered with cabinet doors so you’d never know. Joe made sure the project was on time even though Covid delays with the foundation meant they ate through their buffer time right away, and had to keep every other phase of work on schedule, (which they did). Johann and Adam were meticulous in their execution of the build down to the fine details of how the baseboard fits around a gas valve for the fireplace. Lastly, Melinda helped us select a palette, fixtures and finishes that matched the scale of our space and aesthetic we were going for—people always ask for the name of our exterior paint color (it’s stonecutter 😀) Overall, we had a great experience working with Todd Schulte and his team! Our home feels very functional for our current needs as a family of four, and at yet it feels like a place we could live comfortably for 30 more years.

When we kicked off this project, we figured it'd be nice to have an additional space that maybe we could Airbnb one day, but as we've come to the finished product and it's so beautiful, I think our primary use for this studio is going to be for family and friends to stay over and having an extra space to place to work since we both work from home. What was particularly nice during the design process was the design is done with the construction in mind, so they're not proposing things that are going to be impossible to build, but it's also really nice to have all of the options they've built in 3D. Working with Dan, he was just so knowledgeable about the city permits and what was doable and what wasn't for a studio build. We also have to give Melinda so much credit on the design side of things. She had great ideas that were interesting, and she just understood where we were looking to experiment and where we wanted to keep things safe. All of the Schulte Design Build construction team were so great to work with as well. The communication was wonderful. It was great to come out and say what's up to Johan and get answers on what ridiculous things I had questions on. Michael was always a pleasure, such a positive guy and Joe had all the answers on every step of the project. We've worked with other contractors in the past where it felt like you were pulling teeth to get answers on things, but everyone involved was always willing to talk to us and they indulged me in all of our questions and requests! There's always hiccups when it comes to construction, you're going to run into things that you don't expect, but they were all handled as best as possible, and it went as smooth as we could have expected. I don't think we could be any happier with the final product of our studio. The transformation is insane from a garage to a beautiful open studio that we can house our family and friends in. We would absolutely recommend Schulte Design Build, it was a great experience from start to finish.

If you are looking for a design build contractor to improve your home, I highly recommend Schulte. Schulte did a complete re-design of our kitchen, bathroom and living space in our 1911 build Phinney Ridge home. We had a very strange layout in our kitchen and Schulte transformed it into a beautiful and functional space. As other reviewers have said, the team at Schulte (Todd, Joe, Yohan and Michael) really is fantastic. They are extremely respectful, trustworthy, and honorable people. Todd really has assembled an impressive team and we are so grateful for them. We lived in our house throughout the remodel, and they cleaned up the space every day and tried to make it as easy as possible for us to still live here through the project. We appreciated that the team worked within our budget as we scoped the project. They provided different alternatives as we tried to narrow down exactly what we wanted to do. Their experience with old homes was incredibly valuable and they gave us great insight and suggestions throughout the process, but we never felt pushed to do things a specific way. The design process was smooth. I was very particular and had a vision for the design, and the designer did a great job working with me to make my vision come to life. Throughout construction, they were easy to communicate with and addressed any questions or concerns we had quickly. The job stayed on budget and on schedule. We will definitely be working with Schulte again for our future remodel needs.

We set out do a complete renovation of our kitchen (built back in the early 80s), including taking out two walls, gutting down to the dirt and studs and rebuilding the kitchen entirely. Working with designs by Christine Chaney, Schulte Design Build completely transformed our kitchen into a clean, bright, open and modern kitchen that we completely love. Taking out two walls opened up the flow of our entire home and made our kitchen the obvious centerpiece of our living space. Todd Schulte, Joe Alper and crew built the project schedule and budget, demoed, framed, poured a new floor, installed 3 new beams, and collaborated with an array of partners to deliver a world-class kitchen, including engineers, electricians, plumbers, cabinetry, countertops, fixtures and lighting. Their team was universally friendly, respectful of the fact we were still living in the house for most of the renovation and incredibly skilled at their trade. Overall, I'd strongly recommend Schulte Design Build to anyone looking for a high-quality, professional contractor to transform their home. They were truly great partners!

We have used Schulte Design Build twice and both projects went smoothly, finishing on schedule, without any surprises and of impeccable quality. Thanks to Schulte Design Build, we now have a much larger kitchen and added a bedroom/bathroom to our basement.  This has made the space more usable for our family of 6 while also adding value to our home. The best part of working with Schulte is the team (Don, Garett, Johan, Todd) which became part of the family for the period when they are at in your home.  The work area was always kept clean and went out of their way to make sure everything is perfect before the project was complete. You don't always realize what you've got until you try something different.  After working with another builder on a different home in another city, we came to understand that what Schulte provides is exceptional.

We had an extraordinary experience working with Todd and the entire team at Schulte Design Build to complete an extensive exterior and partial interior renovation of our Pacific Northwest craftsman home in 2018. Key project elements included: a new outdoor pavilion with a hot tub and connected deck, koi pond and an entertainment room remodel that included a wet bar,  bathroom, and new custom Murphy bed cabinetry. The Schulte team also recommended and seamlessly managed efforts with a partner architect, color consultant and landscape firm to deliver this large-scale project on time and on budget. This was an unbelievable feat as we were under an immense deadline with a wedding reception planned at our home. Todd and team treated that wedding date like it was their own and moved mountains to give us the home (and reception backdrop) of our dreams. The Schulte team is truly the most trustworthy, collaborative, dedicated team of people we've encountered and they exceeded every expectation we had in the renovation process.

Schulte set and stuck to their budget and timeline, finishing on schedule. How often does a contractor do THAT?!!! It was an outstanding experience. Their team was professional and very aware of the neighbors. They left our house spotless. I definitely recommend them.

Schulte Design Build is reliable, personable, responsive, with quality you can can count. His design team  completely redesigned the entire main level floor plan of our house and we couldn’t be happier. We chose to use Todd’s team because we knew we could trust him in the project planning, execution, and follow through after completion. That was really huge for us when we were making the investment. Every project has its hiccups, so it was good to know we were in solid hands as we encountered those. Thanks Todd, Joe (our project manager), the designers and everyone on the team for your honesty, integrity, and straight up hard work.

Working with Schulte Design build was an absolute pleasure. It was such a convenience having an Architect, designer, and contractor all wrapped into one company. Everyone was very professional and thorough. Our remodel was on our house that is close to 100 years old. Schulte design build was able to overcome many obstacles that come along with remodeling of an older house.  With their expertise and ideas we were able to come up with a plan that turned out fabulous and we are very happy with. The quality of the work, materials, and craftsmanship was top notch! Highly recommend this company to anyone looking to remodel. Thanks Todd and crew!

I used Schulte Design Build to replace the aging stucco on my house with fiber cement board and batten and to remake by front and back entries. As the old siding was torn off we discovered that the amount of rot underneath was extensive. The team at Schulte was exceptionally responsive and very supportive with all of the issues that came up during the project. My Project Manager Tony Sanchez was absolutely on top of everything every step of the way. I cannot recommend Todd and his team at Schulte Design Build enough. Absolutely fabulous team.

I worked with Todd and Schulte Design Build on three separate projects at the same house over the past 7 or so years. For budget, we needed to divide up all the remodeling projects we wanted to do on the house into three phases. Todd and his team worked with us to figure out how to best do this and we recently completed the third phase. The projects included a full kitchen remodel, exterior work, and the entire second floor, including adding a dormer and bathroom. The third project was the most expansive, where at least a quarter of the roof was off the home at one point! The entire team has always been very professional, friendly, top-notch in problem solving, and highly skilled. I've always been impressed by their attention to detail. For example, for my remodel, it was very important to me to try to match the remodeling to the 1920s character of the home, which included details like the moldings and floor finishes. Schulte Design Build totally gets it, and we were able to work together on multiple projects to get a great end result.  I can't say enough good things - I always chose Schulte to work on my three projects, and if I had any more, I'd select them again. I recommend Schulte Design Build without hesitation.
