Landmark Design Build

We brought Landmark in after our first "budget" contractor proved hollow and ghosted us after the framing phase was complete. Landmark came in and provided some much-needed structure and discipline to our project and quickly got us back on-track. Simply put, they plan their work and work their plan.

Communication was excellent, and craftsmanship was amazing across the board -- we are thrilled with our luxury bathrooms and classy laundry room. And our favorite feature, a 70's style laundry chute connecting the bathrooms to the laundry room below, is super cool.

Our only regret was not going with Landmark in the first place -- they do high quality work, on time and on budget. We lost money and time on the "budget option". These guys are true professionals, up and down the organization including their select pool of contractors.

We recommend Landmark 100%, and will be bringing them back to reface our kitchen cabinets next.

We worked with Landmark to design and build our home on acreage in Whatcom county. We're very happy with the result, both the design and the building of that design and appreciate Landmark's work to make that happen. Throughout the process, they listened and addressed our concerns while still injecting their knowledge to make sure the final result was the best possible.

We worked with Landmark to build our garage ADU in 2019. After interviewing half dozen different local builders/contractors, we selected Landmark because Marinus demonstrated a deep understanding of how we wanted to approach the project.

We could not have been more pleased with each step along the way, from design decisions to cost transparency to timely communications. We worked most closely with Christopher, who managed the day to day with skill and professionalism, bringing an ineffable mixture of calm and compelling pro activity.

We highly recommend the Landmark team and would certainly use them again.

Landmark has completed a number of projects for me since 2004, on both my residence and rental property. The feedback I get is always good. Their design work is a treasure. A large enough company to have depth of knowledge and longevity of employees, Landmark is still small enough so that I don't feel like a number. When I spend the kind of money these projects require - it helps to have an enjoyable working experience where I feel listened to and valued. They also stand by their work and if anything needs a fix, they make it right.

We could not be happier with the work Landmark did for us. The stairs in our 115 year old home were small, inconsistent and dangerous. I was always hesitant to replace them, because nothing is square in old houses, and you never know what structural issues you might find behind the walls. Marinus came out and sketched out a few different options, and gave us confidence that his carpenters had the skill and experience to do the job.

I could write a lot more, but here are some things I really appreciated when working with Landmark:

- They made suggestions for options that we could do ourselves to save money on the project (some deconstruction and finish work). They were happy to do the work, but wanted to give us the option to save some $$$.
- The main carpenter who did the work, Shawn, was knowledgeable and friendly, and worked around our inconsistent schedules.
- Excellent communication all around. We were consulted on any design questions and unexpected issues along the way.
- The final project cost was well within the original estimate.

The photos speak for themselves. The original brown, small rickety steps transformed into the beautiful full-sized, sturdy fir staircase that blends seamlessly with the house aesthetic.
