WINN Design + Build

We engaged WINN for a significant renovation including a kitchen overhaul, carpentry, floors, electrical, venting, painting and built-ins throughout our house. We had a vision of what we wanted but worked well with their design team to get ideas and feedback. The project was challenged when our design coordinator left the firm late in the design phase, but they made sure the timeline was not impacted. The architectural team brought practical solutions to the plans considering how the house is structured and used. Our project manager, Conrad, was wonderful, being detail-oriented, flexible with details and ensuring subcontractors completed their work timely and accurately. When our hardwood floors were sanded and stained with the wrong color, they made sure the work was redone at the subcontractor’s expense. Due to family issues, we needed to stay in the house throughout the renovation and Conrad made sure we only had to leave the house during the flooring work.

We added onto our 1938 Cape Cod style house in Arlington, Virginia to accommodate a three generation family of five. Winn Design did a great job incorporating the requests from all of us. For Gramma, me, there is a lovely first floor suite with a wide ADA compliant hall and a private bathroom. For my son and his wife there is a new bedroom with beautiful skylights and a master bath bath on the second floor and an art studio with lots of light in the basement. For the tween and teen granddaughters there are bedrooms for each of them and they only need to share a bath. For all of us there is now a large comfortable screened porch right off the kitchen. Everyone we worked with at Winn was pleasant and capable. The onsite supervisor kept us informed every work day by text and photographs about the progress being made and what to expect next. I couldn’t be happier with our “new” house.

We worked with Winn Design+Build to renovate our 1927 home with a 2002 addition. The project involved a complete exterior renovation to improve the home’s curb appeal, the addition of a screened porch, converting an existing room to a mudroom, and a kitchen renovation. We decided to work with the Winn team because of their experience renovating older homes while maintaining their historical character and appeal, and we are thrilled with how the project turned out. The Winn team was a pleasure to work with throughout. While there was some turnover in the team members assigned to our project, we consistently had the support we needed and felt lucky to be even more impressed by the new team (thank you, Lauren and Ken!). Winn was collaborative and always responsive to our questions and suggestions, including being willing to research a new siding material for our exterior that they had never worked with before that we all ended up loving. We lived in our home throughout the renovation and the Winn team made every effort to minimize the disruption to our daily lives and keep the work site as clean as possible. Everyone who worked on the project was kind and courteous, and all our neighbors noted this as well as the quality of the work. We are particularly grateful to have had the best possible project manager, Conrad, who ensured that everything ran smoothly and who we genuinely miss seeing every day!

We thought updating our 1960’s home with its many different additions and styles would be impossible, but Micheal Winn and his talented team did it beautifully. We wanted to update the kitchen, dining room/office, and a rear addition to match the midcentury style of the front of the house. WINN understood what we wanted better than other firms we interviewed and presented multiple options to achieve our goals. Once a design was selected, we appreciated the constant communication and collaboration throughout the process. Working with talented architects who listen to your ideas and provide honest feedback was an absolute highlight of the project for us. In the end, we now have a beautiful and cohesive house. WINN was able to open the adjoining rooms while creating clear definition to each space. Everywhere you can see and feel the excellent craftsmanship. The natural light that pours into the house is spectacular! The repurposing of an underutilized storage room at the back of the garage into a home office was a brilliant idea that brought exceptional value and a key room addition we never would have imagined. The WINN team gave us our dream house and we love living in it.

The team at Winn Design did an outstanding job on my home addition project. They completed entirely on time and on budget which is rare in this industry. I have since referred them to many others in the area.

Very positive experience. Conrad was the daily on-site leader and could not have been more helpful. All other contractor members (electric, plumbing, etc) were highly professional. Encourage more use of the online exchange to review daily progress and address concerns as work progresses. Otherwise, great work and final product.
