Recapping 2021 with Before & After images. BUILDING TRUST BLOG 2021 PROJECT PORTFOLIO Recapping 2021 with Before & After images. Back to Blog 2021-12-30 What a year! Here are a few 2021 milestones and memories from our team. Recapping 2021 with Before & After images. We completed a Historic Renovation in Downtown Anderson. The building is located at 106 Benson Street and now the site of Katharine Marie Bridal . It was originally constructed in the early 1900s and has been beautifully preserved. Now it's another great reason to come to downtown Anderson, SC . Here's the Before & After This "Before" image goes back to the early 1900s: Then fast-forward to 2021 for the "After": We didn't go looking for historic renovations, they just seemed to find us in 2021. Fortunately, we turned out to be pretty good at them. In the summer we completed the renovation of a 120+ year old home. Here's the video recap of that project . Another area where we expanded our ability was in the realm of 3D Renderings. This year we actually created quite an extensive library of these virtual renderings. Here's an example from a bathroom renovation and how we transitioned from before the project began: To the rendering: To reality: In 2021 we saw Lazy Susan and Blind Corner Cabinets reinvent themselves: Every year we capture some stunning "Before & After" photos. This year we went to a whole new level. Before: After: We don't typically build furniture, but this renovation required custom bunk beds for visiting grandchildren. So, here's what we did: In 2021 we added more talent to our already talented team. These folks are definitely gifted, but even better at Building Trust: Thank you for your connection to the DB team. We are grateful to all who helped us fill 2021 with positive memories and milestones. Now on to 2022! Happy New Year! Are you contemplating a major home renovation?

At Daniel Builders we’re fortunate to have great employees gifted in multiple areas of the remodeling process. Today, we’re focusing on commercial remodels. In this blog, you’ll meet Tim Cutliff. Tim is a recent hire who plays an integral part in developing the Daniel Builders Commercial Division!  BUILDING TRUST BLOG COMMERCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: AN INTERVIEW WITH TIM CUTLIFF, COMMERCIAL DIVISION DIRECTOR Meet Tim Cutliff. Tim plays an integral part in the Daniel Builders Commercial Division! Back to Blog 2024-07-08 At Daniel Builders we’re fortunate to have great employees gifted in multiple areas of the remodeling process. Today, we’re focusing on commercial remodels. In this blog, you’ll meet Tim Cutliff. Tim is a recent hire who plays an integral part in developing the Daniel Builders Commercial Division! Building Trust Blog (BTB): Tell us a little about your background in commercial construction. Tim: I’ve been a project manager in commercial construction for over ten years, managing a range of projects from small tenant upfits to various new construction projects. BTB: What factors make a commercial remodel successful? Tim: Good client/builder communication. Trust is huge. When trust is lost, everything is impacted. From a business standpoint, losing trust means you’re not likely to have repeat business. BTB: What are some of the major differences between a commercial remodel and a residential remodel? Tim: There are similarities, but differences might include the scale of work. As a homeowner, you have a different level of sensitivity than you would with a commercial building. BTB: Who do you interact with in your role? Tim: I interact with commercial architects, commercial designers, commercial real estate brokers, property managers, building owners, and end users. BTB: What is the competitive advantage of using Daniel Builders for commercial projects? Tim: Having residential knowledge and experience is an advantage, which usually comes with more attention to detail and more focus on personal relationships. If you can succeed in residential then commercial is less challenging, even though they are different. BTB: What excites you most about your role in the Commercial division? Tim: 1. The relationships: strengthening existing relationships and building new ones while executing projects with a high standard of excellence. 2. Honoring God in my work and doing my work for the glory of God as Colossians 3:23 talks about. BTB: What’s next for the commercial division at Daniel Builders? Tim: We’re going to continue Building Trust, as previously established by the Daniel Builders brand. We’ll continue to uphold a high standard of excellence in projects large and small.

Finding and choosing a reliable general contractor in South Carolina for your project is the first and most important step to getting the best outcome. There are so many options, but how do you choose the right one? BUILDING TRUST BLOG CONTRACTOR NEAR ME Find and choose a reliable renovation contractor for your home remodel. Back to Blog 2023-09-07 Are you looking to renovate or remodel your home? Add on an accessory dwelling unit (ADU)? Complete a bathroom renovation or a kitchen remodel? Finding and choosing a reliable general contractor in South Carolina for your project is the first and most important step to getting the best outcome. There are so many options, but how do you choose the right one? In this blog, we will share tips on how to find and choose the perfect remodelling contractor for you. Define the Scope of Your Project Before you begin the search for a home renovation contractor, you must define the scope of your project. You should determine the specific details, requirements, and outcomes most important to you. Having a clear idea of your goals will help you communicate with potential home remodeling contractors. This will also help you gauge their suitability for the job. Conduct Online Research Use online resources to expand your search for contractors. Websites like Angie's List, HomeAdvisor, and Houzz have directories of general contractors and home renovation companies. These sites will even let you narrow your search down to specific cities such as Greenville, South Carolina or Anderson, South Carolina, and in some cases, you can even search more specific neighborhoods within cities. These websites will also include customer reviews and ratings. Read reviews and browse through portfolios of any general contractor you are considering. This will give you a sense of their work quality and previous client experiences. Speaking of reviews and ratings, have you read our client testimonials and reviews ? Check Licenses and Insurance It is very important to make sure that any home remodeling contractor you consider is both licensed and insured. Valid licenses prove that the remodeling contractor has met certain professional standards and regulations. Carrying proper insurance protects you from potential liability in the event of an accident or property damage during the project. Interview Potential Contractors Next, choose potential house renovation contractors and schedule a consultation. During these meetings, ask about their experience, qualifications, project timelines, subcontractors, and references. Pay attention to their communication style, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns. A reliable home renovation contractor will have great communication skills. Check References and Portfolios Ask for references from previous clients, and then take the time to reach out to them. Find out if they are satisfied with the remodeling contractor's work and professionalism. Did they stick to promised timelines and handle unexpected challenges well? Review the contractor's portfolio to check out the quality and style of their previous projects. Make sure they align with your vision. Review Contracts and Agreements Once you have selected a contractor, it is important to review the details of all contracts and agreements. Most home renovation companies will want to document the entire process. Pay special attention to important details such as project timelines and payment schedules. Make sure to include the scope of work, materials to be used, and warranties. If necessary, seek legal advice to make certain you understand all the terms and conditions. Finding and choosing a reliable home renovation contractor is a crucial step in a successful home renovation. By following these recommendations, you can make an informed decision. Remember to define the scope of your project, get recommendations, do your research, interview potential contractors, and check references. Any reliable general contractor will carry the required licenses and insurance. They will be good communicators, have integrity, experience, and act professionally. If you invest the time and effort into choosing a reliable contractor, your home remodel will be a success! Are you in need of a home renovation contractor?

Find something unexpected in the walls of your home. BUILDING TRUST BLOG UNDER THE SURFACE Common discoveries during demolition. Back to Blog 2022-02-28 During the demo phase of a home renovation you may make some discoveries when walls open up. The demolition (demo) phase of a renovation can feel like a game show. There's risk and suspense. "Bob, show us what's inside wall number 1!" This is when everything concealed - behind walls, in the ceiling, and under the floor - is revealed. Here are 7 surprises you might encounter during the demo phase of your renovation. Rot - This might be the most common discovery during demo. Two things need to happen once rot is identified. The water source must be identified, and it must be stopped, which is much easier said than done. Water can find numerous ways to destroy your home . They range from poor waterproofing in the bathroom to improper flashing around windows so water “wicks” inside to no vapor barrier behind siding to leaking plumbing to condensation. Poor landscape grading and Design also create paths for water to penetrate your home. Regardless of how it gets in, the source of water must be stopped, or the cost of rot will only escalate. Poor Structural Integrity - Like every occupation there are bad professionals in the building industry. Maybe it’s a carpenter’s attempt to cut corners or sheer incompetence, but a poorly framed home presents real renovation hurdles. If structural issues are not addressed, a renovation can literally come apart at the seams. Unfortunately, a pricey Change Order is often necessary to correct these problems, but ignoring a framng problem is way more costly. Missing Insulation - Somewhere between having an “airtight” home and being under-insulated, there exists the perfect amount of insulation for your home. Opening up walls and finding missing batts of insulation may explain why your energy bills are inexplicably high. Good news is a lack of insulation can be easily corrected once demo is complete. Hidden Electrical Junctions - This is why demo requires forethought, especially if you’re about to sink a Sawzall into the wall. The last thing anyone wants is to get tangled up in bad wiring , especially when it’s live. How your home is wired may be a mystery, but don't let it be a life-threatening mystery. Turn the breaker off. Mold - Demo can reveal some funky looking mold under the surfaces of your home. Getting a professional involved with testing and remediation is your best bet. No need to mess around with something that can cause serious illness. Find out the type of mold you’re dealing with before proceeding. Vermin - They can be living or in a carcass form. Neither are welcome in your home. If this discovery is made inside the walls of your home, then get Pest Control professional involved. Wild animals belong outside. And those who find their way inside usually create a path for more to follow. Treasure - A historic home seems to be the obvious place you’d find hidden treasure. That's not always the case though. There have been some very valuable things found during demo of homes and apartments built since the 1950s. Still, it's not advisable to bet your renovation on finding something valuable. Expect a surprise or two during demo. We’ve seen many of them before. Are you ready to see under the surface of your home and start a major renovation?

Our renovation six advantages are designed to guide you through your custom renovation. Communication, craftsmanship, clean and safe job site, a fixed custom price quote, satisfaction guaranteed, and lifetime workmanship warranty. OUR 6 ADVANTAGES What distinguishes us from other renovation contractors? To be clear there's no complicated, secret formula. Instead, our team brings unique value to the renovation process in six simple ways. Simple yes, but uncharacteristic of many in our industry. Here are the Six Advantages of Daniel Builders. Advantage #1 PROMPT & CLEAR COMMUNICATION We’re eager to hear from you. You can expect a warm and friendly tone from the moment we begin communicating. You can expect all voice mail, email, and texts to receive a response within hours, not days. We’re committed to this level of communication before, during, and after the sale. Advantage #2 EXCELLENCE IN DESIGN & CRAFTSMANSHIP A successful remodel doesn’t just happen. True harmony must exist between designing and building. We realize the design must match your desires precisely. So we’re willing to patiently walk through that process with you. Once we begin to build, you can expect us to stick to the plan. We take care of everything from ordering the right materials to scheduling every phase, so you don’t have to. Advantage #3 A CLEAN AND SAFE JOB SITE We promise to maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area to minimize disruption to your family’s routine. We use tarps, covers and dust barriers extensively. No smoking on the job site is allowed, and materials and tools are stored neatly and safely. These are a few of our rules. Being considerate and respectful of your family’s needs is very important to us. Advantage #4 DETAILED SPECS & FIXED PRICE QUOTE During our initial meetings, you may be surprised by the number of questions we ask, and the amount of time we spend with you. We’ve learned investing extra time early in the process is critical to the project’s success. We work closely with you, selecting all materials and clearly defining the scope so your expectations are fully met. You receive a fixed price quote before the build phase begins. Advantage #5 SATISFACTION GUARANTEE Many people say “Satisfaction Guaranteed” — what does that mean? With Daniel Builders, it means we’re committed to doing the job right the first time. And if you’re not satisfied, we’re prepared to keep working until you are. Your complete satisfaction is so important to us, and we’re so confident in our quality work, we’re willing to guarantee it! Advantage #6 LIFETIME WORKMANSHIP WARRANTY At your Post Project Meeting, we will present you with our Warranty Promise: If there is any problem with our workmanship — whether 5 months or 5 years after job completion — we will be there to correct, for as long as you own your home.

A look back at some of our 2024 projects and milestones. BUILDING TRUST BLOG 2024 PROJECT PORTFOLIO A look back at some of our 2024 projects and milestones. Back to Blog 2024-12-24 What a year! We're grateful for these 2024 memories and milestones! This year, we added more talent to our commercial division, design team, and build team! We welcomed Tim, Deedra, Lorianne, Micah, and Patrick! The largest project we completed this year was a whole-home remodel in Simpsonville, SC, thanks to an extensive team of industry professionals! In addition to the work on both floors of the home’s interior, the project included a new screened porch, a garage conversion, an outdoor pavilion, and a redesigned landscape. The screened porch features two in-ceiling heaters, Ipe wood decking, and a sliding double door. The garage conversion features a kitchenette, full bath, and game room. The home features a custom metal hood vent and railings, a handcrafted herringbone appliance panel, and craftsman-built wainscoting in the dining room. We completed multi-room renovations at two Cliffs properties. This Cliffs at Glassy home featured a new kitchen, master bath, and locally-made handrail. This Cliffs at Keowee Vineyards home featured a new kitchen, master bath, and basement conversion. We also had the opportunity to help two Greenville clients with home additions! The first was a single-story addition that expanded the home's existing floor plan to include a mudroom, laundry room, half bath, closet, office, and screened porch. The second was a two-story addition that expanded the home's floor plan to include a sunroom on the ground floor and a master suite on the second! We continued to serve clients on both Lake Keowee and Lake Hartwell. This kitchen renovation at the Reserve at Lake Keowee featured a hammered copper hood vent and a lake-green island. The modern design of this multi-room renovation on Lake Hartwell was a welcome addition to our portfolio! The project included a complete redesign of this townhome’s first floor. In 2024, our Direct Projects division expanded through both commercial projects and a new niche: condos! We completed several condo renovations at 201 Riverplace in downtown Greenville. We also completed two commercial office renovations for HH Barnum Company and Cox, Klugh & Company. The past year also brought opportunities for generous giving. In September, we assisted Haven of Rest, a ministry serving those battling housing insecurity and addiction, by repaving the driveway of their women's shelter. We are grateful to all who helped us fill 2024 with positive memories and milestones. Now on to 2025! Happy New Year! Are you contemplating a major home renovation?

See your custom renovation in 3D before its reality. BUILDING TRUST BLOG BE CLEAR See your custom renovation in 3D before its reality. Back to Blog 2020-11-12 Our Design team can utilize 3D renderings like these on large, multi-room renovations. They are unbelievably realistic, and sometimes difficult to distinguish from an actual photograph. In addition to this WOW factor, 3-D renderings have 7 practical benefits for both client and contractor. Clarifies Vision - Why waste a thousand words (or more) when a picture is available? A rendering can accelerate clarification for all involved in the renovation process and provides far more clarity than 2D renderings. Identifies Problems - Is the renovation feasible to build? A 3D rendering helps identify structural integrity issues and enhances spacial awareness. Reduces Delay - What is the #1 way to ensure a successful renovation? Answer: Establish shared expectations between contractor and client. Unshared expectations cause inefficiencies, frustrations, and can easily turn into a renovation train wreck. A 3D rendering showcases an outcome everyone can understand. Reveals Options - Is there a mental block regarding Design ideas? A clear project rendering triggers ideas and inspiration. Optimizes Distribution - Would hearing the opinion of others be helpful? 3D rendering software is easy to upload and share via Dropbox. Being able to efficiently share a rendering allows for rapid feedback from friends and family. Strengthens Accountability - Does the renovation match the 3D rendering? If not, why not? A 3D rendering creates a visual agreement between contractor and client. It’s the standard by which a finished renovation can be evaluated. Any discrepancy can be traced to a responsible party. Prevents Letdown - Are you happy with the finished product? No one wants to regret a big purchase. And a contractor especially doesn’t want (or shouldn’t want) anyone to experience buyer’s remorse. Afterall happy clients are the link to future business. Seeing the finished renovation before moving forward minimizes letdown. Blindly buying a custom renovation isn’t necessary. See it first with a 3D rendering and move into the build process with confidence. Are you contemplating a major home renovation?

Why? plays a crucial role in the remodeling process. An honest answer enhances your remodeling experience, but more importantly protects you from a terrible one. BUILDING TRUST BLOG REMODELING FROM WHY Why? plays a crucial role in the remodeling process. Back to Blog 2023-06-05 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKCJPadrAAQ "Why?" plays a crucial role in the remodeling process. An honest answer enhances your remodeling experience, but more importantly protects you from a terrible one. Do you remember the first question you ever asked? Probably not, but it was a likely a single word question, one asked by toddlers with intense frequency throughout human history. "Why?" Pretty cool how the human mind is uniquely programmed at such an early age to start looking for that answer. Turns out "Why?" plays a crucial role in the remodeling process. An honest answer enhances your remodeling experience, but more importantly protects you from a terrible one. In this episode of Ready, Set, Renovate! Chris Cloud talks about finding the reason behind the renovation or finding your WHY. Why watch or listen to this episode? Glad you're asking. Getting your remodel right (or anything for that matter) starts with knowing why. Are you contemplating a major home renovation?
