Bowers Design Build - Qualified Remodelers Top 100 - Guildmaster

Bowers Named as a Qualified Remodeler Magazine Top 100 Customer Satisfaction Leader

Bowers Design Build has been named to Qualified Remodeler Magazine as a Top 100 Customer Satisfaction Leader with a Guild Quality All-time 100% Recommend Rate. Read the interview with QualifiedRemodeler.com below.

Business technology and business software are offering new ways for remodelers and home improvement professionals to improve client experience and customer satisfaction. In what ways are you using software or technology to improve client experience?:

We use Builder Trend for our client relationship management tool. It is our signature platform used by all 26 employees (designers and construction experts) in our niche firm to manage an exception client experience.

Our signature design software is REVIT. REVIT is the most robust 3D design tool that helps clients envision their renovated home inside and outside. REVIT also allows us to perform sun studies to demonstrate to client the sun orientation for their home and make more sound decisions.

Quick Books, PlanSwift and Microsoft 365 Suite, round out our software tool box for a seamless client experience.

Rising costs for labor and building materials along with higher inflation on everything else is forcing remodelers and home pros to raise prices dramatically. Tell us about the most effective ways you are passing along these rising prices to your clients?:

Clients recognize that costs are rising, but education on cost/benefit is the key in helping clients manage their budget. The value add to our design/build business model is that we present costs at every step of design so that clients can make decisions on the best designs to maximize their budget, how they want to invest their money and which features will bring them the most utilization. These transparent, detailed conversations about cost as it relates to the specific design, scope and specifications puts clients in the driver seat to make smart decision that are right for them.

Supply shortages have required you to ask clients to go back and pick another finish or building material. What are your tips for handing these product trade-off conversations?:

Clients are fully aware of the pandemic induced supply chain issues, not only in our industry, but in every aspect of their day to day lives. Our product selection process is completed during the design phase of the process, well before construction. We have built in the long lead times into our schedule so that we avoid having to ask clients to pick another product to the greatest extent possible. We never ask a client to accept a “lesser than” product. If anything, we’ll buy the available product and install it so that client can have the functionality they need and then come back and replace it with the one they really wanted when it is available. Our clients have appreciated our above and beyond efforts to secure the products they really need or want.

Bowers Design Build Named Arlington Magazine’s 2021 Best Places to Work

Bowers Design Build was recently named one of Arlington Magazine’s 2021 Best Places to Work.

The awards program and regional survey was created by Arlington Magazine and Best Companies Group to identify, recognize and honor the best places to work in Arlington, McLean and Falls Church, Virginia. The goal of the program is to honor, support and celebrate the region’s economy, workforce and businesses. Arlington Magazine’s 2021 Best Places to Work list is comprised of 11 companies.

To be considered for participation, organizations had to have an office in the eligible areas, at least 15 employees and be in business for a minimum of one year. For-profit, non-profit and public sector organizations qualified.

Organizations from across the region entered the two-part process to qualify for Arlington Magazine’s Best Places to Work. The first part consisted of evaluating each nominated company’s workplace policies, practices and demographics. This part of the process was worth approximately 25% of the total evaluation.

The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure employee experience. This part of the process was worth approximately 75% of the total evaluation. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking. Best Companies Group managed the overall registration and survey process, and it also analyzed the data and used their expertise to determine the final rankings.

“Arlington, McLean and Falls Church are fortunate to have many outstanding organizations and a talented workforce,” says Greg Hamilton, president and publisher of Arlington Magazine. “The organizations on this list have worked hard to implement policies and create cultures that make them attractive to their employees and sought-after places to work.”

Award-Winning Home Renovation Featured in Washingtonian Magazine

Our clients wanted to update their kitchen, but they were also dissatisfied with the overall layout of their first floor living space. They wanted a larger laundry room, a more open/eat-in kitchen, a larger formal dining room to accommodate all their dining room furniture, better views of and access to the back yard and a more efficient and better looking home office. They believed they needed an addition to accomplish this, but we reconfigured their existing footprint to create all the spaces to meet their needs. They wanted their renewed home to be practical, livable, and more comfortable. We were able to achieve this within their existing footprint and budget

The Covid-19 pandemic has prompted an intense focus on outdoor spaces, which offer safe places for homeowners to entertain.

The Post-Pandemic House – Covid-19 is Creating a Demand for Outdoor Spaces

Bowers Design Build was recently interviewed for an article featured in Arlington Magazine on the Post-Pandemic House. The Covid-19 pandemic has created an increased demand for outdoor spaces

excerpt:

The Covid-19 pandemic has prompted an intense focus on outdoor spaces, which offer the only safe place for homeowners to entertain. “It’s been a running joke in the office that everyone who’s calling wants a screened porch,” says Wilma Bowers of Bowers Design Build in McLean. “Now that they’re stuck in the house, they want an outdoor space built in conjunction with the kitchen. Everyone wants an extension of their home.”

Her firm is outfitting open-air spaces with fireplaces, TV and speaker systems, high-end finishes and power sources for lighting and laptops.

At AJ Madison, sales of outdoor-kitchen appliances are up, Petrino reports, as are wine fridges.

And because public pools are either closed or open with restricted occupancy, inquiries about backyard pools have skyrocketed, says Arlington landscape architect Jennifer Horn. “Everybody wants to build a pool right now, and everybody wants to build a fire pit. They say, ‘This is the only way I can see my friends.’ ” read full article

COVID-19 Safety Measures

COVID-19 Safety Measures – Our Clients’ & Employees’ Health & Safety Are #1

For 30 years, the health and safety of our clients and employees has always been critically important in the work we do.  The COVID-19 Pandemic caused the world to be more thoughtful about  health and safety. We have family members who are medical and public health professionals and took our role in the pandemic seriously.  Eventhough the CDC has reduced protocols as of May 2023, Bowers Design Build continues to employ common sense health measures including:

  • Every Bowers Design Build employee knows that they are not to work when they are ill. We abide by all CDC and local public health guidelines.
  • Our office and design staff have flexible work from home guidelines to reduce the spread of any illness.
  • We continue to invite our clients to our McLean office for in-person design meetings, but have also perfected video meetings for design presentations as well.
  • When we do have design meetings in a client’s home, we defer to a clients comfort level in terms of mask wearing, etc.  You will be greeted warmly, but shaking hands is optional.
  • Every construction employee has access to face masks on the job and has an ample supply of hand sanitizer, gloves and disinfectant wipes.
  • We communicate with our clients to ensure that we are doing all we can to create a safe and healthy environment that meets each clients’ individual needs and circumstances.

Kitchen Remodeling Tips – Opening Up The Space

This kitchen remodeling project gave the client the truly open first floor plan they desired. Their previously renovated kitchen (10 years prior) had increased the ceiling height, but left the space closed off to the rest of the living area. The homeowners felt closed-in while in the kitchen and isolated when in the dining room. The living room was avoided all together. As a result the first floor didn’t get used as much as they’d like. Opening up the space, with no walls or posts to obstruct the view, now allows the homeowners to enjoy the whole, integrated space daily.

Northern Virginia Home Remodeling - House & Kitchen Renovation

Remodeling Project Profile – Northern Virginia Home Renovation

As part of a complete whole house renovation, this kitchen was carefully designed for the homeowners who love to cook, bake and entertain.  Since the home was being gutted, the kitchen design could start with a clean slate. The kitchen design is perfect for this family where the wife is the primary cook and the husband the “clean up guy”. The wife has a work triangle between the refrigerator and the stove and ovens, complete with prep sink and in-cabinet trash can. A pull out spice rack and cabinet for cooling oils make food prep easy.

Remodeling Project Profile – Big Island Kitchen Renovation

This family loves to entertain. They not only wanted to update their kitchen but they also wanted to create better space for the way they live.

The kitchen was totally renovated with the latest products and finishes. A large island serves as a prep area, dining table and work station (laptop chargers and electrical outlets are hidden at each island corner post). The dining area was turned into a cozy fireplace sitting area. The space that previously housed the butler’s pantry was totally repurposed for the new beverage center. The beverage center is more accessible and allows for more storage. A large walk in pantry completes the space, accented with a custom (Bowers’ carpenter designed and built) pantry door.

Remodeling Project Profile – Mclean VA Hamlet | Kitchen & Addition

Kitchen Remodeling & Addition in Mclean, Virginia –

When the homeowner first contacted us, it was to create a new covered front entry way to accommodate a family friendly foyer and add a screened porch off the kitchen.  However, when we started to do our design analysis of needs, lifestyle, etc. it became clear they needed more comprehensive renovation to make the house what they wanted. Unfortunately, within the past five years, the client had a family room addition and cosmetic kitchen facelift done, but they were not happy with the results once the project was finished. It appears that the former designer did not really do a needs analysis to help them see that the new space would create bottlenecks in the house flow. For instance, they love to grill. So, the designer had a little deck built off the new family room that had the grill on it. But to access the deck, the homeowner needed to go through the entire house to get to it. As a result, they never grilled. Since they intended for this to be home for the rest of their lives, we designed a holistic plan to make the house work better for them. A home addition was designed and built to allow for better circulation; expanding and renovating the kitchen space, adding a sun room with screened porch beneath; and repurposing several rooms in the home. >read more

Remodeling Project Profile – Outdoor Spaces

An effective outdoor room design should make it seem as if it has always been part of the original home.

This family loved outdoor living; they just didn’t like the bugs. A screened porch was the perfect functional solution for them, but they wanted this new outdoor room to transition well from their traditional colonial home. We designed and built a room that met all their needs: fine finished carpentry, a sitting area and eating area. The space transitions well from the home… all the way to the pool deck.

Remodeling Project Profile – Italy Inspired Kitchen Remodel

While large production builder houses certainly have a lot of space, they often lack a personalized feel. This family travels extensively and wanted to bring a touch of their beloved Italy to their kitchen. They love to entertain as well, so it was imperative to make the space conducive to large parties of fun people who can easily visit with the cook, sip great wine from the convenient beverage center and dance on the stunning inlaid Italian tile floors.

New Testimonial – Blee Family Home Addition

Bowers built and designed a large addition on the back of our home that included a master suite, sitting room with stone fireplace and built-in desks, half bath, a large full bathroom and walk-in closet. We have hired this team before and they are the most punctual group I’ve ever experienced. Our particular project required that Bowers Design Build take into account the disabled homeowner. Bowers Design Build came up with a variety of ingenious ideas to support her disability and the result is that the new living area is totally accessible. The project is almost completed and it’s beautiful and does not look rigged for a disabled person but rather more substantially built. It’s interesting. I truly think this group could specialize in this sort of work. I would also like to mention that all of the employees are delightful and very talented. The architect is just amazing as are all of the project managers and designers. Of course all of this speaks to Bowers himself, who hires and keeps his team together. –The Blee Family

New Testimonial

Bowers did a large renovation on our home.  We sincerely trusted the team, which was very important to us.  The on-site management of our project was a key factor in how smoothly our project progressed.  The management team was very accessible and consistently went the extra mile for us.  The construction team arrived daily, on-time, and completed the project on the date promised upfront.  We really appreciate that they didn’t bill us for making small changes that weren’t in the contract; like moving a wall in the master bedroom or painting the foundation.  They also stood behind the quality of their work, such as replacing a toilet that the plumber scratched by accident.  Bowers’ overall attention to detail from the design to the final piece of woodwork was exemplary.  Even our neighbors commented that they were very impressed by the Bowers teams’ professionalism and energy.  If we were to do it again, we’d choose Bowers for sure.  –Peter Thieman and Monica Aquino-Thieman

remodeling northern virginia - customized outdoor spaces

Customized Outdoor Spaces

Customized outdoor spaces are highly sought after projects in the world of home renovations today. Homeowners want to make the outdoors a more integral part of how they use their home. According to Bruce Bowers of Bowers Design Build, “The best outdoors spaces are those that reflect the lifestyle and needs of the homeowner. Before designing an outdoor space, homeowners should articulate how they want to use the space so the design can appropriately accommodate their needs. “

Here are a few sample questions homeowners should consider in designing an outdoor space:

  • Are you planning to dine outside, if so, how many people will you need seating for?
  • If you are planning a lounge/sitting area outside, how many people will you need seating for?
  • If you plan to cook in the outdoor space, what appliances are you anticipating using? (This can include the obvious, like a grill, to the unique…pizza oven or popcorn station.
  • Do you want a water feature incorporated into your outdoor space?
  • Do you want a fire feature incorporated into your outdoor space?
  • Do you want part of your new outdoor space to be “bug free”?
  • Do you want any portion of your outdoor space to be conditioned for year-round use?

Understanding the answers to these types of questions is critical to designing and building the ideal outdoor space. It is also important to think through how the outdoor space relates to the indoor space. Bowers says, “The outdoor space should be an extension of the indoor space to maximize the greatest use and functionality. For instance, an outdoor grilling area should ideally be close to the kitchen to make back and forth trips more manageable. ”

Creating the ideal outdoor space starts with thoughtful design planning and then building the space that meets each homeowner’s unique individual needs and wants. Great outdoor spaces should transition well from the homes interior space. In addition, any outdoor space should accentuate the home exterior façade. No two outdoor spaces are alike, but there is a perfect outdoor space for every homeowner’s needs and budget.
