Why Ellenwood Homes / About Us

Professional Construction Management

Successful projects start with good design and detailed, accurate budgets. Throughout the cost planning process, we guide our clients through the many design and construction options, and then analyze the costs and benefits up front. That means you know you are getting the house you want, at a cost you want. Our main focus is to design, build, and renovate with efficiency  in order to optimize your investment. Once construction starts, we look after all the details and the workflow, ensuring your project is done on time and on budget.

Our newly-purchased home was built in ’93 and when the realtor arranged a first showing in late 2016, my wife said, “This place has potential value but it needs a serious updating”.  At the same time, I kept thinking, “I think this house has good bones”.  So we bought it, moved into it and embarked on updating it with the help of Lara and Marc from Ellenwood Homes.  All excellent decisions.

Lara is educated and experienced in building and furniture design; Marc in construction and budgeting.  Add to that the varied skills of their main onsite contractors, Corey and Scott.  What a team!  We’ve never known better and if we were to tackle another job like this we’d choose these folks again…in a flash!

After a winter of renovating and selecting of new furniture – all guided by our team, we are totally thrilled with the outcome.  On top of that, we’ve gained very good friends in the process…
