We wanted to convert our garage into an ADU. We got three estimates and decided to go with Master in Design, which was the middle estimate. Danny was our project manager and everything went very smooth from start to finish. The ADU came out absolutely beautiful and we are very happy with the result. We definitely recommend Master in Design to anyone looking to build an ADU.

Master in Design has been my go-to company for all my home projects. From the kitchen remodel, room addition, garage conversion and repairing my roof due to a fallen tree through the years. Master in Design has left me in awe with the results. Danny is informative, communicative and all around humorous to work with. He makes the whole process less stressful. Thanks Master in Design.

Danny and crews were very dependable and did exceptional work remodeling two bathrooms in an older track home. They were timely and trustworthy (I left a lockbox for them to enter and work on my house while I was away at work). I am absolutely amazed at the transformation and end result. I would highly recommend Master in Design (Danny) if quality, trustworthiness and dependability is important to you.
