We purchased a Townhouse/Villa in 2020 that had a great layout but finishes that were more than 40 years old. We hired Livingscape on a friend's recommendation to design and project manage a total refresh. Livingscape and ourselves jointly established a scope of work and from there a schedule and a budget. Maureen offered fabulous design ideas with alternatives. Pat and his contractors met the schedule; the budget was impacted by changes we requested but the cost was still acceptable. The quality of work exceeded expectations and we anticipate the refresh investment will look like a great investment

We did a major reno with LivingScape in 2020 - complete main and upper floor - and had good experience. Pat and Maureen were great to deal with. They truly provide a custom experience - you have a say in everything! Pat was quick to respond to all concerns, and Maureen was very pleasant and professional. Most of their trades were good to deal with, too. A special shout out to Albert, their finishing carpenter, who was a perfectionist with our custom wainscoting. And Mauricio, the painter, was trustworthy and did a great job. Our kitchen is so bright and pretty now and has much better storage. Our

We hired LivingScape for our home renovation which was comprised of a complete renovation of 2 bathrooms as well as a kitchen renovation down to the studs including removing the wall between the kitchen & living room, and all new flooring, paint, cabinetry countertops, lighting, etc. At first, we had no idea where to start with our renovation. Most of the other contractors we spoke with would just give a list of suppliers to visit to make our selections, but this still left us wondering how to get from A to B, whether we were doing things right, or where to even start.
