Meanwhile , right around the corner from the kitchen , the powder room also underwent a makeover .
“ She was looking to create a space for her guests that was a little more special than the rest of the home ’ s bathrooms ,” says Croome .
The Northeast Design Build team granted her wish by installing Dove Gray porcelain tile by MSI in a herringbone pattern for the backsplash and a vanity with a quartz countertop contrasted by refined espresso cabinetry . They also went on to refinish all of the first level ’ s hardwood floors along with the stairs , and even replaced the home ’ s front door .
In addition to their innate ability to deliver projects on-time and on-budget , another benefit of working with Northeast Design Build is their use of Buildertrend , a project management software and app that facilitates easy and direct communication between the builder and client .
“ It ’ s perfect for those who are living elsewhere while we complete the remodel . They can log in to their own portal and receive real-time schedule and progress updates every day ,” Croome explains . “ They can also send in questions or ask for photos . We are very responsive .”
The app further fulfills the mission owner Michael Sarah has maintained since starting the business in 2011 of delivering personalized service from start to finish . ◆
