Let’s hear our story
We are a locally owned and operated business based in Calgary, Alberta.
Our
experience is rooted in values and craftsmanship passed on from three
generations of building and fine woodworking. Our family has been
implementing its design and build strategy for 45 years prior to immigrating
to Calgary in 1990. We continue to strive to be the top renovator while
never compromising on our workmanship and impeccable service. Our motto
“measure twice, cut once” are standards we adhere to on every project
irrelevant of the size. This has enabled us to keep our delivery promises
and lessen our need for revisions and repairs. We hire professionals for
every step of the project, from designers to drywallers, including a
full-time professional engineer to review details and execution from the
onset of any project.
Our designers understand the significance that our clients give to a home: a place where memories are built by bringing family and friends together. This is why we spend time at the beginning of every project to ensure our clients are getting a home that not only looks good in photos but is also tailored to your needs and lifestyle. We strive to execute your vision to our best potential and within your budget.
The owner of Design Reno Build has been leading professional teams and providing unwavering oversight of every project detail from beginning to end. No project is too complex, too big, or too small. The diverse skillset of our team (from engineers, architects, trades, and designers) gives us the confidence and ability to tackle any project.

Our Top Services
Home renovations are exciting but can also be stressful! Our goal is to help you upgrade your home so that you are comfortable in it. One of the core strengths or our team is integrity. We are not here to upsell you on renovations that you do not want or to convince you to spend beyond your budget. In fact, there are times when we advise clients to do fewer renovations than they had planned.
Kitchen Renovations
Whether you’re looking for a full renovation or just to update a few key elements, we are committed to ensuring you get the kitchen you want. We strive to optimize your layout by improving the flow, increasing storage, and bringing in more natural light. Even simple alterations such as updating your countertop and cabinet colours and hardware can create a meaningful change.
Kitchens are the centrepiece of most homes and should be tailored to your style and needs. However, they can also be tricky to design as there are so many critical details involved to ensure the space is well thought out and maximises efficiency. We are here to guide you in your decision making.
Counter Tops
Quartz is usually our recommended choice as it is more durable than granite, more stain resistant, comes in numerous styles and colors, and easily allows for an undermount sink.
BackSplash
This is the opportunity for creativity and artistry.
DUAL BASE WASTE BASKET
Make your kitchen function more efficiently.
Dual tiered cutlery trays
Organization to help keep things at your fingertips.
Basement developments and secondary suites
Developing your basement can add a whole new useable space to your home. It could be a place for your kids to call their own: where they can play, have their friends over, and make all the noise they want. It is also a great location for adult entertainment and home theatres. Or perhaps you’re looking to turn it into a secondary suite.
Here are some things to consider when developing a basement.

Energy efficient upgrades
Our team has a lot of experience in upgrading older homes to be more energy efficient. Not only will this reduce your energy bills and your environmental footprint, but it will also enhance your comfort by making your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Some upgrade options are: changing out existing windows for 3-pane windows, adding insulation to your attic, adding spray foam insulation to your walls, installing a tankless hot water system.
Complete Renovations
Entire home renovations can have many advantages. Besides enhancing the
overall appearance, updating your home can increase comfort, functionality,
provide better security, and offer a healthier, more efficient living
environment, while also reducing your energy bills. In short, home
renovations done right, can greatly improve your quality of life. Another
benefit is increasing your home value. This is where our team can provide
the most value for money you are going to spend on this endeavor. We
understand how to balance the important aspects of renovations while making
sure not to exceed your budget so as to regain the value of the money spent
in case your house is to be sold.
