TESTIMONIAL

Lisa Kirk

“I knew Liz and ESD Homes from my time living in Atlanta. In 2020, we purchased a home out of state and wanted to do a moderate renovation to it before moving in. Overwhelmed, I contacted Liz to ask for some general guidelines on how to best pick a local contractor, etc. Even after hiring an architect and builder, I decided to work with ESD to help consult on the project as I knew Liz would help me make the best choices. We decided to do a consulting contract where she also helped me with budget review, building plan review, and finish selections. I wasn’t working with an interior designer, so this was a great option for me. I love the creative choices but didn’t know the best brands to use or what dimensions, etc. to consider. My local contractor had some recommendations, but I found that Liz had superior resources that were of better quality and to my taste, while being sensitive to cost. This was invaluable to know that I was putting in timeless materials – down to my door hinges. She has excellent taste but is approachable and reasonable. Liz saved us a lot of time and money and regret. When we were kind of stumped with our architect on the bathroom remodels, Liz looked at the plans and came up with a great solution that we incorporated. She wears a lot of hats! A lot of times projects have complications or challenges. We had some communication troubles with our local builder, as well as work done incorrectly, and wrong materials ordered. Liz was an invaluable sounding board to help me problem solve and know what was reasonable for each situation. I would have been in tears if it weren’t for her sound advice and calm and responsive communication. She even has a therapist hat. If I do another out of state renovation I will 100% use ESD as a consultant! And if I move back to Atlanta, I will be excited to see Liz and her team in action in person. Liz and ESD are detail oriented, wise, quality minded, and most of all honest and reliable. 10/10 recommend!”
