Build and Bloom

With more than three decades of industry experience , Calyx Builds is primed to support local homeowners with their remodeling projects from start to finish .
BY KAITLYN MURRAY
In the botanic sense of the word , calyx refers to the outer petals of a flower that protect and sustain its developing bud . Once the flower is ready to bloom , the calyx sheds away . Much like its namesake , Calyx Builds provides the same degree of support during the scope of a home project .
Formerly known as Calyx Homes , Robert and Joanne Brierley founded the company in 1997 with the focus of new home building but have since pivoted to remodeling existing homes . The experienced owners have found that they enjoy working one-on-one with clients to decipher their home ’ s history and isolate an issue before coming up with a solution . Today , Calyx Builds boasts a large network of knowledgeable and skilled employees , trade contractors and suppliers who can rise to any occasion . Above all else , the Calyx team values its customer relationships , ensuring that every call and email is answered promptly , no detail goes unnoticed , all deadlines are met , and expectations are not just reached , but exceeded . They are with you every step of the way until your home is in full bloom .
KITCHENS Calyx Builds knows what it takes to configure a dream kitchen . They know that cabinets , for example , are the subtle balance between beauty and function , but installation is an important factor in keeping your kitchen beautiful for years to come . Yet while cabinets are usually the first thing seen in a kitchen , countertops provide an important balance to the overall aesthetics , as do the appliances , both of which they can install with flawless precision . In addition to the perfect kitchen , Calyx Builds can also build or redesign your dining room to match the look and feel .
BATHROOMS Having the perfect bathroom always involves selecting the right shower and tub , along with the ideal placement . One or two sinks ? Marble , quartz or granite ? What type of setup fits your needs ? Make your mornings less of a hassle by letting Calyx Builds help you figure out what is right for you .
ADDITIONS An addition needs to look natural , cohesive and aesthetically pleasing . The Calyx Builds team has an eye for detail and can make your addition blend well with the rest of your house . Whether your addition is a sunroom , family den , home office or an extra , more roomy living space for your inlaws , they can do it all . ◆
