“The cost was what they said it would be to begin with.
We don’t have enough praise for Steve, Ed and Joe, all thoroughly professional and all willing to take the time to listen to our concerns during the project. Joe even took time yesterday to help me get our dining room table back in position so I could insert a couple of additional leaves for Thanksgiving. Thanks again.”

“We met and interviewed several companies before settling on Tabor. His professional manner, good ideas and experience led us to select him. The entire building crew, from the foreman to plumbers, painters, electricians and floor men was excellent. The crew appeared each morning promptly and worked steadily through the day. They cleaned up afterwards. In addition, the costs were kept to original estimates. We are extremely happy with the final results and would recommend Tabor Design Build, Inc. (and already have) to anyone considering a remodeling job, however complex.”
Marion and Ashok Deshmukh, Bethesda
“We heartily recommend John Tabor for his conscientious work, attention to detail, and careful, thoughtful management of projects. Our construction project included demolition of an older addition to our 97-year-old home and rebuilding a new, much larger addition from the ground up. All the work fulfilled expectations and was completed within a reasonable period of time.
John was pleasant to work with, well-organized, and always conscious of our needs, expectations, and budget restrictions. Every stage of the project was scheduled to the day, and every item required was listed and selected in advance. Our requests for changes and additions in the course of the project were dealt with quickly and without fuss. His attitude towards his work seems to be that it is a great and exciting adventure, rather than a trial to be suffered through, and it’s a contagious attitude.”

“We chose Tabor Design Build because they did a great job on my first renovation project. We selected them then because John is knowledgeable, straight forward, willing to work with you, fair and a good listener.
I’m already thinking about Phase III! Thanks so much for making our house a home! You’ve brought our dreams to life!”

“Honestly, I was VERY skeptical about how much new windows could or would do for my 85 year old house (especially since I knew that our walls had no insulation), but decided to give it a try. I felt desperate we were FREEZING in here it was really, truly uncomfortable and just frankly unlivable. I just had to write to you to let you know that I really didn’t expect this much of a difference! As you know, I get paid to express myself, but right now, I am absolutely speechless. The only words I can find to describe my feelings are AWE and GRATITUDE. Thank you for a really great job on installing these windows. I am NOT COLD in this house for the first time in five years (and I didn’t cringe before putting my shoes in the foyer closet).”

“We realize that our project consisted of several extraordinary requests. We are truly appreciative of you taking the time to help us realize our goals. We are delighted to have seen all this work finished in just under one month’s time! There are some work associates we have ‘compared notes’ with who have told us similar work took a year’s time. This is a real testament to Tabor’s skill in scheduling and coordinating work between suppliers, his subcontractors and Tabor personnel. We would not hesitate to work with him again.”
“We’ve had a lot of people over in the past few weeks, all are quite impressed. We have no regrets, there is really nothing we wish we had done and that is the mark of a great team effort. It looks amazing – one of the parts of the kitchen I am most happy with was the extra counter depth by the fridge.”

“The contractors did a superb job at keeping the construction site clean and safe. I consider this a big bonus.”
Joseph & Sybil Yaver, Laurel

“I’m always happy to brag about the excellent service and care we received from John and his crew.”
Dave & Sue Williams, Silver Spring
“I have been grateful for the pleasant attitude of your employees and they have consistently left the work site in immaculate condition – always a pleasant surprise when I come home to see a completed job.”
Katie Miller, Washington, DC
“When my wife and I purchased a new home last February, we decided to immediately renovate the kitchen, construct an office and replace the lighting in the basement, build a walk-in closet in the attic and make other significant home improvements. We knew exactly who to call — Tabor Design Build, Inc. We never even considered anyone else. Here’s why: Seven years ago we contracted with John Tabor to have work done at our previous home. On that occasion, we had Tabor remodel the kitchen, finish the basement and replace the front door. We were particularly impressed by the quality of the workmanship and John’s insistence on using only the best building materials. In addition, John made helpful recommendations based on his years of experience in the business. And he informed us up front about the possibility of any potential additional costs that might arise once the work had begun. We also appreciated the fact that the work was completed on schedule. The end result was another satisfied Tabor customer — and the same is true of our most recent experience with the company.”
“Overall, I was impressed with the attention to detail, the quality of the work and the commitment to customer service (all too often lacking in the trades).
The lead carpenter on this job was a real pleasure to work with. Besides being an excellent, highly skilled and motivated worker, he was also extraordinarily respectful of my privacy and with the juggling I would be doing in the morning when he arrived (working out, eating, showering, dog care, and the like).
As well, the office staff was prompt, courteous and very willing to go the extra mile with good communication and follow-up. Lastly, John qualifies as one of those rare individuals, regardless of profession or trade, who is both technically knowledgeable and customer-savvy. It was a great experience working with a company committed to ‘getting it right’ each and every time.”
“Our experience with Tabor was exceptional. It amazes everyone I know who has had remodeling done that not only was the job done two days early it was only a couple of hundred dollars over budget. Everyone who sees our addition admires it enormously. The regular Tabor crew (Joe, Steve and Scott) were a pleasure to have around and were always polite, helpful, informative, available, and on time each and every day. The crew kept the yard very clean for a construction site, as we requested and wreaked very little havoc on the landscaping. We would definitely use Tabor for any future remodeling work on our house and have already recommended them to neighbors.”
Teresa Lindquist, Rockville
“John Tabor was always patient and straightforward with me, answering all my questions. John listened to my requirements and always provided insightful suggestions. John, Scott and all of the crews were always prompt, courteous, and respectful of my home. It was a pleasure working with each of them and I am thrilled with the results of their hard work and meticulous planning.”
Myra Coffield, Silver Spring
“I had good expectations going in and they lived up to them. We like John a lot and have used his company a couple of times. Their work is very good work, John’s a good guy to work with and his people are really good. The quality of staff is good and you get something really solid at the end of the day. They may not be the cheapest, but you get good value for your money.”
