Book the visitWho you'll deal with
Mara Fenn draws every kitchen herself. Tomas Hollow's crew builds it, with one lead carpenter on your job from the first day to the last. Priya runs the permits and the Friday photo email. Dale is the name on most of the reviews. Nobody hands your project to a subcontractor you have not met.

Ranges are what Fernhollow projects have actually cost since 2021, construction only, before your selections move them up or down. The discovery visit narrows the range to your house.
Half of the discovery visits end with a smaller project than the homeowner came in with. Bring the problem, not the plan.

Design fee, credited to constructionEvery door, slab, tile and tap chosen in daylight at Kiln Street, with your designer, before permits are filed.
IncludedWe file, we chase, we schedule. Your start date is written into the contract.
IncludedOne lead carpenter from demolition to punch list, dust walls and floor protection every day, a photo update every Friday.
The proposal priceA punch-list walkthrough, then scheduled check-ins at 60 days and one year, and a three-year workmanship warranty.
IncludedWhat it really costs
Since 2021, 94 percent of Fernhollow projects closed at the signed price. The other six percent changed because the homeowner added scope, or because we opened a wall and found rot, and both were priced and approved before work continued. A low first quote that grows is not a low quote.

Sixty minutes at your house. Free. The honest range before you spend anything.
What clients say
The number on the proposal was the number on the last invoice. Nine weeks, and Dale's crew swept the site every single evening.
We lived downstairs through the whole build. The dust walls actually worked, and the Friday photo emails meant we never had to ask what was happening.
Mara caught that our original layout would have put the toilet in view from the hallway. The studio afternoon choosing tile was the best part.
One week late because of a permit inspector, which they told us about the day they knew. Otherwise exactly as drawn.
From 212 responses to the Fernhollow client survey since 2019, average 4.9. Every review is shown with the client's permission, unedited.
Where you choose materials
Every door, slab, tile and tap for your project is chosen here, with your designer, under daylight lamps, before a permit is filed. One afternoon, usually. Nothing is ordered from a catalogue photo.

If something goes wrong, and how to pay
Fixed-rate project loans from $25,000 through Ledgerline Home Finance. A soft credit check shows your rate without touching your score, and nothing is due until the walkthrough.
See your rateAnswers before you ask
Yes, for the scope in the proposal. 94 percent of our projects since 2021 closed at the signed number; the rest changed because the client added scope or we found rot behind a wall, and both are priced before work continues.
Usually. Kitchens get a temporary kitchen in another room; additions are sealed off with dust walls and their own entrance.
Eight to eleven weeks of construction after permits, with cabinets ordered before demolition so the site is never waiting on a delivery.
Your lead carpenter and Fernhollow's own crew. Electrical, plumbing and HVAC are three trade partners we have used for over a decade.
Across Kestrel County: Alder Ridge, Millbrook Crossing, Sable Hollow, Pine Terrace, Wrenfield, Copperline, Harrow Lake and East Ridge.
Where we work
Every project is within forty minutes of the studio, which is how one lead carpenter can be on your site every day.
