Welcome to Gordon Reese Design Build

A home is a place of belonging. It’s so much more than where daily tasks are carried out. Your home holds life’s most irreplaceable moments: your child’s first steps or last day of school, holiday celebrations with loved ones who are now gone—all these snapshots of memory.
We realize that a building doesn’t make a home. Relationships make a home, and we think life’s most unforgettable moments should be cherished in a beautiful space. At Gordon Reese Design Build, we’re an award-winning remodeling company that is nationally recognized for providing superior services.
We’ve stayed in the business all these years by fostering lasting relationships with our clients in the Bay Area. In fact, we’ve been in the industry for over thirty-six years.
Feel free to take a look around and let us know if you have any questions or comments. We’re ready to exceed your expectations and create your dream space!
It’s traditional for architects and remodeling companies to work with two dimensional designs. But while this may be easy for a builder or an architect to decipher, we understand it doesn’t consider the homeowner’s needs.
The beauty of 3D design is that it allows us to show you what your finished project will look like, long before we even begin to build. This extra step reduces homeowner stress and worry because it provides total clarity before moving forward.
But back to imagining your dream home… If you’re wondering what’s possible, just ask.
