exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail

As an Interior Designer for over 20 years, I have worked with many builders / contractors around the country. Tom Werk of Werk Innovative Homes is my number one “go-to” for projects large and small. Tom builds a gorgeous, well thought out home – one with exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail, and he applies those same qualities to even the small remodel projects. He brings a level of creativity to the table that I have not found in most builders, able to see past the expected to create details that set his work apart from the norm. He works with the homeowner, corroborating with the designer or decorator if there is one on the job, to achieve exactly what the homeowner wants and needs. Tom is an extraordinary man of great character and integrity – trustworthy, humble and honest. He approaches each person as a person, not just another project, with respect and dignity. He communicates clearly the process of the build, the costs involved, and the time frame associated with the build. I recommend Tom highly!

compliments our personalities and lifestyles perfectly

We wanted to say how much we love our new home and the detail and thought that was put into the planning. Even though this was your Model home, it really compliments our personalities and lifestyles perfectly. We downsized to this new home and still feel like we have just as much room as we did before. Working with Tom on getting final touches was easy and done in a timely manner. I would recommend anyone thinking of building a new home to speak with Tom and his team at Innovative Building Services.
