Testimonial
We were very pleased with Dashiell as a builder. Their workmanship is superior and their personnel were pleasure to deal with throughout the entire process. The allowances built into their budget were adequate to cover all of the final selections for flooring, hardware, appliances, cabinetry, moulding, etc.. Dashiell dealt directly with Becker Morgan during the construction process to resolve any ambiguities, which were very few. Susan and I would drive down every other Saturday and walk through the home on our own during its construction. I would then email Dashiell every Monday morning with questions/issues that we felt needed clarification. This oversight was probably not totally necessary but we felt more comfortable because we both put a lot of effort in to the design and wanted to be certain that we had not overlooked anything. In summary, Becker Morgan was a pleasure to do business with and we have remained in contact with Chris Pattey even after construction was completed. You can rest assured that they listen well and are extremely creative in their design. I would also highly recommend that you consider Joe Dashiell as your builder. They stayed totally within budget, their workmanship was of the highest quality and they completed construction on schedule.

Space Planning
Crucial to interior design, disappointing interiors are normally due to poor planning and improper use of space
Transformations offers a comprehensive residential space planning service. This service is about utilization of interior space. We will look at the existing space to see what opportunities we should consider. We will look at the benefits of creating new extensions and how it would affect the existing space in its current state. Our aim is to demonstrate how the home could be altered to meet your lifestyle. Both minor and major renovations could be considered in order to maximize the potential of the existing space. For example we may suggest that a load-bearing wall be replaced with structural columns to create a more intelligent floor plan thus allowing better flow throughout the property.

Testimonial
"As we wind down the construction process at our new home in South Bethany Beach, we wanted to let you know what a positive and enjoyable experience we have had with you and your terrific staff this year.
Admittedly, building a second home three hours from your primary residence can be an anxious process; however, you and your staff largely alleviated those concerns.
"Particularly in the early stages, you, Michelle and Mark were exceptional in helping us both "think through", the design and execution of the project. On a day to day basis, Joy was extraordinary in her responsiveness, well-considered and practical suggestions and execution of details, keeping us focused on the "big picture"."

Encyclopedia Encarta - Project Management, technique for matching available resources (time, money, and people) against business project aims (early completion date and final cost). The technique originated in the shipbuilding industry during World War I (1914-1918), when American engineer Henry Laurence Gantt developed what is now known as the Gantt chart, a bar chart deploying use of resources over time.
In the 1950s United States companies DuPont and Remington Rand developed the critical-path method, which arrives at the combination of resource allocation that determines a project's end date. This was subsequently incorporated by the U.S. Navy into its program evaluation and review technique, which displays graphically which processes are dependent on others
