Like the Big Guys...
We give our workers colorful, monogrammed coffee mugs....
... Just not ours.
Fancy mugs cost money — money that we can use instead to keep our costs low and our work affordable. We stay away from the frills — company t-shirts, monogrammed jackets, colorful billboards, fancy showrooms — they're just not us, not our style, not the way we do things.
Which is why, around our very unfancy office, you will see stacks of beautiful, monogrammed coffee mugs — absolutely none of them ours.
What Our Customers Say...
Patty E., Lincoln, NE
I love my new kitchen! It is everything I dreamed it could be, and more.... StarCraft came up with some amazing design ideas that have made my kitchen uniquely wonderful.... I was very impressed with their creative designs, their excellent workmanship and I love the quality of my cabinetry.
Micki W., Grand Island, NE
Every builder claims to give a warranty. But where are they when something breaks? StarCraft got right on my tile problem and fixed it quickly and without any questions.... Jim and Ron are guys I want to work with again.
Catherine T., Lincoln, NE
... but the best compliment came from an architect friend of ours who commented that our new kitchen looked like it could be original to the house.... Your ability to make a modern kitchen fit the period of our restored 1921 craftsman bungalow was awesome....
Julieanne K., Firth, NE
Our new deck is wonderful and so is our finished basement. Your workers were polite and professional. I like the fact that they cleaned up every day and took extraordinary pains to keep the construction mess out of the rest of my house.
Edwin M., Redmund, WA
The new cabinets are wonderful. Our carpenter was amazed at how well they fit in our kitchen with only minor adjustments. We are delighted to find that workmanship like yours is still available at a reasonable price....
We prefer to put our money in our work. We build beautiful
kitchens and
baths, the very finest custom
cabinets, high-tech
home offices and home theaters, elegant
decks, and
additions of all kinds, efficient
closet, and
storage systems, hand-made, high-quality built-in
furniture sturdy
garages and garden buildings of every size and kind.
And we do it for less money than the big guys — you know, the ones with the fancy mugs — about 20% less on average. Our reputation for excellence, affordable high-quality workmanship and on-time, on-budget completion is second to none. We have been Honor Roll members of the Better Business Program every year since the program began. We take being professional very seriously.
So, whatever your remodeling plans, big, small or somewhere in between, we can help you afford them.
The Old House Specialists
We love old houses, and it shows in our work. We respect the craftsmanship and painstaking detail, the fine mouldings and woodwork, and the hand-made doors and windows. Old houses are our cultural heritage — representing whole historical eras and a truly massive investment in energy and resources much too precious to be just cast away and replaced.
Coordinating with Heritage Architecture
How do you update your kitchen or bath and still keep your home's historical character? Learn more about coordinating your interior spaces with your house's heritage architecture. Go to "Coordinating with Heritage Architecture".
We understand your love affair with your heritage house. It is not just shelter. It is living history with its own
personality, quirks and foibles. It groans in the winter wind, creaks in the summer sun. It sags a little here and a little more there, so nothing is ever quite straight or square or perfect. Unlike the sterile new McMansions and tract colonials, it has a legacy of character and charm. None of us can imagine living anywhere but in our own old houses, squeaky floors, sticky sashes and all, because with these little quirks come 100-year-old sycamores, lush, mature gardens and a Purple Martin house in the back yard dated "1929 - Fred".
Over many years we have become the experts at updating period homes while preserving the feel, style and craftsmanship of the bygone era. We can seamlessly incorporate a modern kitchen, bath or addition into your period home while making it look as though it was always a part of your house. We are the masters at squeezing the very last ounce of functionality out of under-size kitchens and tiny baths, of reorganizing closet storage to store twice as much in the same space, and of designing additions that look like they were a part of your house from the very beginning.
Our designers can create just the right look and feel, and our Stylists can help you with colors, materials and textures suitable for the era of your great old home. So whether your home is a classic Victorian masterpiece, a
Realistic computer images let you see your finished project long before we actually start building. It's much easier — and a lot cheaper — to make changes in the computer before we start construction. Click here for more on kitchen and bathroom design.
folksy Craftsman bungalow or a comfy post-war cottage, we can help you preserve it, enlarge it, modernize and update it; without sacrificing the very special look and feel you fell in love with in the first place.
Design/Build Remodeling
We are full-service design-builders. We do more than just build with a marriage of careful old-time workmanship and the most up-to-date techniques; we can also help you turn your ideas for your home into a plan that fits both your needs and your pocketbook.
Our Design Service features the very latest architectural CAD software that allows us to plan your project and show you in full-color, photo-realistic images what it will look like when it is finished.
You can view it from any angle, get a detailed look at any feature, and examine it from every imaginable perspective.
Why guess? Make sure you love it before we build it.
Construction Management
Fixtures by Duravit

can produce any look from the most high-tech ultra-modern home office to an exact copy of great-grandma's armoire.
Our craftsmanship and experience ensure that when we're done, it will be precisely as you imagined it could be.

The Perlick undercabinet refrigerator with pull-out shelving. For more information go to Perlick.com and battle the overdone "Flash-y" web site for more information.
For many years we have wondered why refrigerators don't include pull-out shelves.
Proving that just when you think there is nothing clever left to invent, someone comes up with a product that is smart and innovative; the PermaFLOW self-cleaning p-trap eliminates most drain clogs by generating turbulence that keeps drains free of debris. But if it does clog, a manual wiper clears any debris. Lose a ring down the sink? The transparent PermaFLOW p-trap makes it easy to find and fish out. Goodbye Drano®, hello PermaFLOW. What will they think of next???
