Our Story

Remodeling Done Right. From Start to Finish.

Your home should feel like your favorite place in the world. That’s why At Design Remodel delivers a full-service experience built on thoughtful design, meticulous planning, clear communication, and lasting craftsmanship—for Cape Cod residents and second homeowners alike.

We’ve all heard the horror stories: missed deadlines, surprise costs, contractors who disappear, or work that just doesn’t hold up. That’s not how it should be.

We’ve built our business around a higher standard—one that values:

  • Design that reflects how you actually live

  • Planning so precise there are no surprises

  • Scheduling you can rely on and communication you don’t have to chase

  • Craftsmanship you can see and feel in the details

When you invest in your home, you're investing in your time, your comfort, and your future. We treat that with the respect it deserves—every step of the way.

To make sure your vision stays on track from start to finish, every project is led by a Design Remodel Specialist (DRS)—your dedicated expert and single point of accountability.

Design Remodel Specialist: A Smarter Way to Remodel

 

Over the years, I noticed a gap in the remodeling industry—too many roles, too much disconnect. You had designers who never set foot on a jobsite, general contractors juggling too many projects, and specialists who focused narrowly on their trade without seeing the big picture.

That’s why I created the concept of the Design Remodel Specialist—or DRS. It’s a role I developed from the ground up to offer something most homeowners never even knew was possible: one point of contact who can manage design and build, understands construction deeply, and stays personally involved from start to finish. 

This idea didn’t come from a trend or a trade show. It came from years of watching what clients needed—and what the industry failed to deliver. In a field that’s often slow to evolve, the DRS model is a smarter, more focused way to deliver consistent quality, thoughtful design, and a stress-free experience.

Behind the Craft:

John Clark, Founder of At Design Remodel

I’m John Clark—and remodeling isn’t just what I do. It’s who I am. 

I started at age 12, sweeping the shop floor for a local builder. Since then, I’ve done everything from framing to cabinetry and built a team of skilled craftspeople who share the same passion for getting it right. Our clients expect precision—and we deliver.

I’m still on-site often, solving problems, moving projects forward, and coaching my team. Off-site, I’m refining systems, researching new tools, and writing about how to make remodeling better—for clients and for the industry.

A Personal Note

My wife Tara, our daughter KatieBeth, and our lovable dog Joie are proud to call Cape Cod home. You’ll often hear about our local wanderings (and occasional dog-related shenanigans) in our monthly newsletter. 

We live here. We build here. And we’d be honored to help you fall in love with your home all over again.

A Remodeling Experience That Feels Different—Because It Is

 

We start every project with a conversation. Not just about square footage or finishes, but about you—your lifestyle, your routines, what frustrates you, and what inspires you.

We believe that when design is aligned with your priorities, the entire project flows better. From permitting and inspections to punch list and polish, our process keeps you in the loop and out of the chaos.

This is remodeling, redefined: high-touch, high-integrity, and refreshingly well-run.

What Our Clients Think

"After 17 years of living with plain white bathrooms, I decided to redo both and found @designREMODEL online. From my first meeting with John, I knew his firm was the right choice. He was detail-oriented and made the process smooth. John and his team were open to changes, and the project grew to include not just two bathrooms, but also a laundry area, new wood floors in the master bedroom, and replacing all interior doors. Despite living in the house during the three-month renovation, they kept the place clean and handled issues professionally. The results are stunning, and I’ve already hired them for another project."
