About Quartersawn

Our proven and tailored process puts you at the center. Quartersawn was founded to provide homeowners with exceptional design and an exceptional experience. From the day you entrust your home to us, your designated three-person team works in harmony, eliminating the traditional gap between design and construction. You enjoy not only the aesthetic brilliance of high-quality design but also the unwavering commitment of a dedicated build firm. This process ensures you and your project personalized and attentive service catered specifically to your unique needs and desires.

Our commitment to you goes beyond remodeling your home; we prioritize building lasting relationships. Through bi-weekly meetings and our concierge approach, we establish connections that extend far beyond the completion of construction. Our process seamlessly blends exceptional design with unparalleled experiences, ensuring your project is a journey of joy and creativity.

  • Quartersawn staff are with clients every step of the way during design and construction process. The staff at Quartersawn worked tirelessly to make our space all and more that we had always dreamed of. Their work is life-changing!

  • We’re forever grateful to the folks at Quartersawn for working closely with us to make our dream home a reality, and we’re already exploring options for the next phase of our renovation — the unfinished basement.

  • I think the whole design concept came together so beautifully. I’m regularly astonished by how comfortable and serene the space is and how content I am.

The Quartersawn Team

In 2005, Jeff and Leslie Nicholson founded Quartersawn Design Build above their home garage. Today, Quartersawn has grown to a team of over 25 craftspeople with expertise in providing you and your home with creative design solutions tailored to fit your unique needs. With most of our employees bringing in 20+ years of design experience, there isn’t much our team hasn’t seen, done, or built. In our 20+ years of history, we’ve had the opportunity to tackle a breadth of projects as diverse and sophisticated as the neighborhoods we work in.

We believe a renovation should beautifully complement a home’s existing architecture and the lifestyle of the people who live there. If you desire cutting-edge and contemporary design, we’ll help you make a statement. Finding this balance requires getting the small details right without losing sight of the big picture.
