Meet Donovan · 5th-Generation Builder
Made to feel like home — from day one.
My name is Donovan, and my passion is pushing the boundaries of design and quality — all while staying honest about budget. My family has been building across the South Sound for five generations, and that heritage lives in every remodel, addition, and custom home we take on.

What we do
Every trade under one roof
From first sketch to final coat of paint, our in-house team designs and builds it all — no handoffs, no finger-pointing, one accountable partner.
What design-build actually means
The lowest price and the final price are rarely the same number.
Most contractors hand you a price on the spot. It feels great — until the work starts and the change orders begin. The industry even has a name for it: scope creep. Without real planning, the cheapest bid quietly becomes the most expensive one, and the bill keeps climbing — because winning the job was the only plan.
We plan it down to the nail.
No one on earth can price your home honestly without knowing the layout, the finishes, the details — so we don't pretend to. After more than a century of building, we've learned that starting with a realistic budget range — and designing every decision around it — is the only honest way to protect what you spend. Plans shift as a design comes to life, and a range holds up where a fixed quote never could.
Before we buy a single cabinet door, you'll walk through your space in photorealistic 3D and see exactly what you're getting. Everything is planned in advance — which is why our crews spend their days building, not standing on the phone solving problems that should never have happened.
We're not the cheapest, and we've never claimed to be. But for the home you actually live in, that kind of certainty is worth more than a low bid. Less stress, fewer surprises, and a process that finally feels predictable — that peace of mind is underrated.
Our budget-adherence guarantee
Instead of a hard quote we can't honor, we commit to the budget range we set together — and design every choice to stay inside it. You always know where you stand, from first sketch to final walkthrough.
Meet the family
A family business, five generations deep.
HOME isn't a franchise or a call center. It's Donovan, his family, and a crew he trusts like one — carrying on a building tradition that's been passed down for five generations across the South Sound.

Questions
Answers before you ask
What services does HOME — Renovation & Design Build provide?
We're a full-service residential design-build contractor. That means home remodeling, whole-home renovations, additions, new custom home builds, and interior design — all managed by one team from initial concept to final construction.
What is the benefit of working with a design-build company?
One experienced team handles everything — design, permits, budgeting, and construction. That means better coordination, faster timelines, fewer surprises, and more accurate results than juggling a separate architect, designer, and contractor.
What types of remodeling projects do you specialize in?
Kitchens, bathrooms, full-home remodels, and structural updates. Whether it's modernizing a single space or improving your home's entire layout and flow, we tailor each project to your lifestyle.
Do you offer complete home renovation services?
Yes — both interior and exterior. We upgrade layouts, improve energy efficiency, and update finishes to give your home a fresh, modern feel from top to bottom.
Can you build home additions?
Absolutely. We design and build seamless home additions — extra bedrooms, bathrooms, home offices, second stories, and expanded living spaces — engineered so the new construction blends perfectly with your existing structure.
Do you build new custom homes?
Yes. We're experienced licensed home builders in Washington. From the initial design phase to handing you the keys, we manage every step of the custom home building process to deliver a home built around your vision.
