D M C / D Maahs Construction, LLC

We had an outstanding experience working with Doug Maah and the entire DMC crew on our kitchen remodel. Everyone who worked on the project was a true professional and craftsman. Top quality materials and workmanship. We are thrilled with the results.

I want to thank Douglas Maah’s and his team of workers for the fantastic kitchen remodel they did in my Santa Fe home. DMC came highly recommended to me and even though I could not be there during the completion of the project I knew I was in good hands as they kept in constant communication with me. I so appreciate their excellence!

We recently completed an extensive remodel project with DMC - 2 complete bathroom remodels, a master closet, redefining walls/spaces (creating an en suite guest room from a once separate bedroom/bathroom). Douglas and Aviva Baumann (our project manager) had excellent design suggestions throughout the process. We had some hiccups along the way, but that is to be expected with any major project - especially during Covid when deliveries were so delayed. Whenever there was an issue, Douglas/Aviva dealt with it immediately and fairly. We were very impressed with the quality of work done by the DMC team - everyone was prompt, responsive, professional, and safe. His in house cabinetry and plumbing/electrical guys are great. The framing/drywall team was amazingly fast and complete in their work. And a special note of recognition to Andrew of Counter Intelligence/H and S Craftsmen. He finalized our master closet design and made so many excellent and thoughtful suggestions that really took it to the next level. We are very happy with the final result and would highly recommend DMC. (In fact, this is our second major project with Douglas, having done a kitchen remodel in 2017.)

In the remodel of a 1919 house in Albuquerque, New Mexico, I had the good fortunate of working with Douglas Maahs for our kitchen and bathrooms cabinets. Not only did he delivered quality cabinetry, but he stood behind it as well. When a disaster from an "automatic" faucet which decided to turn itself on in the early morning, Douglas went beyond and above to ensure a quality replacement. It is a pleasure working with someone smart and ethical.

Working with Douglas was a delightful experience - a description not often applied to either contractors or remodeling. He did a complete kitchen remodel for us: all new cabinets, lighting, appliances, countertops, backsplash tiling, new island, and a hood that required punching out through the roof. The work was done on time and within budget. I have never worked with someone who is as professional, responsive, and client centered. He communicates clearly and directly and he had excellent design ideas throughout the process. His crew was great, and they clearly enjoy working with him. Douglas has our highest possible recommendation and we look forward to working with him again on other projects.

Douglas Maahs transformed our kitchen from a dated 80's to a beautiful contemporary. From design, demo, organization, to completion, Douglas and his team were professional, knowledgeable, punctual, dependable, and so pleasant to work with. This was our first big house project, and it was Douglas Maahs' community reputation that was the deciding factor to choose DMC construction for our complete kitchen remodel. As with all big projects, there are many parts, and DMC construction walked us through every step, professionally and with an experienced eye for design. With DMC's expertise, our dated Santa Fe kitchen is now a contemporary beauty that blends perfectly with our pueblo-style home. Only Doug and his team could have made this all come together.

DMC did a whole house remodel for us and we are thrilled with the result. The project was completed on time and Douglas, his crew and all of the subs were excellent—friendly, reliable, highly-skilled, and so very easy to work with. My husband and I were directly involved in the process and were always met with professionalism and respect. DMC worked with our architect, followed the design plans and presented creative solutions or recommendations whenever unexpected issues came up—and they certainly did! Douglas offered great ideas for finishes and provided resources for fixtures and other materials. He was very reliable, had immense patience during the stressful times and always kept the lines of communication open. We knew that our overall satisfaction was always at the forefront of his mind. We are very pleased with our house transformation!

Excellent design and remodel project for us. Crews were efficient, responsive, and within budget. I would recommend this company to any home owner who wants quality design and work for remodeling.

Our gut remodel of a dated kitchen in a 68-year-old house in Santa Fe began with interviews of two architects and three contractors. We knew we wanted to open the space by removing most of the wall between the dining room and kitchen and expanding the opening into the family room on the other side. Also, we wanted the existing floor taken right down to the joists to level it properly. This was a job too big for us to supervise; we wanted a firm that would take care of every detail. We chose Douglas Maahs and D Maahs Construction partly because of his well-established reputation in Santa Fe but also because of his calm assurance and straightforward estimates of costs and time to complete the job. We had endured two other kitchen renovations in the past and were a tad skeptical when Douglas said the job would take a month. (Yeah, we said to ourselves, make that two, maybe three.) But apart from a few minor adjustments to be finished next week, his crews wrapped it up in 33 days, from demolition to beautiful cabinets and counters. Bravo! Speaking of the crews, they were extremely professional and dedicated, easy to have around even when the house is in chaos with such a major project.

A wonderful crew with excellent skills. Douglas worked with me on the design and recommended finishes. They remodeled my kitchen and bathrooms. I couldn't be happier.

Doug is great to work with. As a home designer in business for 20+ years, I found Doug and his crew to be professional on many levels. From communications, accurate costing and estimates thorough construction and completion, very reliable. In the initial interview, Doug pointed out cost saving methods without sacrificing the design intent. The sub contractors were on time and qualified on many levels. The projects that I have worked with Doug, costs came in right as quoted. The few changes were easy and fairly priced. If you are considering a remodel/renovation to home or office DMC should be on your list to interview. Austin Canon

We knew we were in great hands from the day we met with Douglas, he is exceptional in both his professional skills as well as his sincere desire for his clients to be happy. With DMC the clients happiness is the highest priority and that is evident through the entire process. We removed two load bearing walls in our kitchen to open up the entire living space and completely remodeled the kitchen. We are in love with our home renovation and the amazing transformation of not only our home, but how we live in it. The before and after is absolutely stunning (it looks like it is out of a magazine). We have to also recognize the amazing craftsmanship of our entire remodel team, they were the best set of professionals we have ever worked with and truly are second to none. We got to know our entire team throughout the project and they are individuals that we trusted in our home and with our home. DMC is a "dream team" of professional and there are no words to describe how thankful and fortunate we are to have worked with them. Each step of the way from picking cabinets to installing back splash tile, and hanging lighting they made sure I was consulted and involved in the project. They made modifications to help me personalize the space (for example they built out the base of our island so it did not have a toe kick and looked more like a piece of furniture). Each team made recommendations for use in our home (Bryan suggested a hidden switch in the island for the lighting over the island). I have already recommended DMC to several friends and will continue to recommend them to anyone who is in need of an outstanding contractor in the Santa Fe area. Douglas, Kurt, Gerald, Bryan, Uriel, and Jason - we can't thank you enough for our beautiful kitchen and open living space. I honestly can't say enough about our experience.

As an interior designer I have worked with D. Maahs Construction on 4 projects in the past 2 years. I appreciate the excellent quality of work, the accuracy in following the design plans, the integrity and skill of the craftsmen in the firm and the positive and helpful attitude of all involved. As a designer they respectfully welcomed me to the team with the goal of producing the best product for the client.

We love working with Douglas on various jobs! He is very professional, hard- working and has a great eye for design.

Douglas Maahs Construction is exemplary in every way! He and his crew are extremely competent, professional, accommodating and friendly! They remodeled the master bedroom, knocking out a wall to the adjoining bedroom to increase the size and overall function and ambience of the space, installing new mirror faced closets, a fireplace, new lighting, etc. In the dining room new cabinetry was built in with granite countertops, wine cooler, storage, wall fireplace, etc...all very functional, yet decorative. He was hired by my designer, Deborah Anderson Interiors who oversaw both projects with great skill and knowledge and attention to design and artful details. I am very pleased with Douglas and his skillful staff and would certainly recommend him and hire him again in the future when needed.

D Maahs Construction just finished a total remodel of our kitchen which included new cabinets, backsplash, countertops, appliances and lighting. It was a pleasure working with Douglas and all of his team, including his subcontractors. Everyone working on the project was highly skilled, paid attention to detail, and was easy to work with. When unexpected issues came up they were easily and quickly resolved. The end result is a fabulous kitchen that came out even better than we'd imagined.

We hired Doug Maahs to completely renovate a kitchen upon recommendation from friends who had contracted him for their kitchen. We were new in town and brought Doug some designs and materials with which he had not worked before. He and his crew met all challenges with aplomb, valuable experience and willingness to explore new options. Doug hires good people who can work with people as well as do the job. The job required a number of changes as it progressed. We all went through the stresses and then reached the end with a "Wow." We love the results, both visually and in function.

D Maahs Contruction has done a couple projects on our house. Most recently they did a wonderful job of renovating our kitchen. They installed new maple cabinets, countertop and a custom tile backsplash. We were out of town during the remodel but they communicated regularly with us and sent photos. Everything was clean and ready to go when we got back.

We completely redid our kitchen: new cabinets, new pantry, new kitchen window, all appliances, and lighting. Douglas Maahs' tradesmen were highly skilled and did a superb job. A variety of design problems showed up and were satisfactorily solved. The end result is a light, clean lined modern/contemporary style kitchen with a splash of color that is beautiful and exactly what we wanted

Douglas remodeled my kitchen/living area. This project included a remodel from a gutted kitchen to open up the space, lots of tile work, built in cabinets in addition to kitchen cabinetry, paint, refinishing door/window trim to match built ins, cable lighting system, paint and brick floor clean up. Douglas and his crew did a really good job - including accommodating my out of town schedule and decision making. The tile work is my aesthetic favorite - the fireplace tile work made a significant change making the fireplace a real stand out feature and the kitchen backsplash is absolutely fabulous! My new living space isn't just a typical remodel or update - it's a real transformation! As I'm settling in, I'm enjoying it more and more every day. Thanks Douglas and all!

D Maahs Construction is a homeowners dream come true. Doug has assembled a team of top notch professionals and skilled craftsman. When there is a need for an outside vendor, they also live up to the D Maahs standards. We have used him for large and small projects. Some of them presented difficult problems. Doug and his team came up with creative solutions and delivered a finished product on time, at or under budget. He calls when he says he is going to call, and they show up when they say they are going to show up. Whether it is the artistry of diamond plaster, the simple precision of hanging towel racks, electrical, plumbing, he has all the bases covered. I always feel comfortable with his staff in my home. I know it may all sound too good to be true, but it is. We are so lucky to have found him, and are about to start another major project.

This is the second remodeling project for which we hired DMaahs Construction. Their attention to detail, follow-up and cleanliness make them the only company we consider. Their project supervisor, Phil, is wonderful to work with and stays on top of the crews. The craftsmen DMaahs uses are top notch in their work. Yes we pay more than maybe we would for other companies but having a signed contract and professionals rather than a handshake and shoddy work is worth it.

Doug Maahs Construction has done numerous projects for us over the past 6 years, including a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, as well as several smaller projects. The results have been excellent, the price fair, and it is always pleasant to work with Doug and his crew. I have recommended him to friends without hesitation.

Whenever I have a big remodel project, my first call is to Douglas Maahs. Douglas is reliable, honest, and holds himself to the highest level of integrity. All of his subs are very skilled, driven, and wonderful to work with. If you are considering a remodel, I would recommend DMC highly.

Statements in Tile/Lighting/Kitchens/Flooring has worked with Douglas and his excellent crew for many years supplying tile and lighting for a number of the projects pictured on this site. They are dedicated professionals who strive to exceed their clients expectations. Plus, they're fun to work with.

Gut renovated our kitchen. Removed part of a wall and reconfigured the pantry refrigerator area..This project included selection of appliances and counter tops . He created our dream kitchen. We were not on site( we live in New York) and did most of our comunication by email. We are looking forward to creating our first big dinner,

Dependable...Experienced...Knowledgeable...Honorable...and just plain "a good guy"... These are only a few of the words that I would use to describe Douglas and his wonderful crew! We have had the pleasure of working with Douglas on a kitchen re-model, large closet addition, a photography studio, a second floor deck and many other projects. All were made with confidence, knowing that Douglas would make sure that ALL was what I had envisioned! Now, we have purchased a different home...different chapter in life...and Douglas will be right there , with us, making sure that the one to come is every bit as wonderful as the one we are moving on from! Thank You Douglas...

We have chosen Maahs Construction for two remodel projects in our home. It has been a pleasure to work with Douglas, Phil and all of their staff. They are very experienced craftsmen. Although we already had architect plans and had selected most of the new materials, Douglas had very good ideas for both some design and material options to our plans. DMC is very dependable and timely; work began on the contract start date, and we were back in our home exactly when they said we would be. They stand by their work in the future and immediately fix any problem that may arise. We have been very pleased with the remodel projects they have completed on our home.

D Maahs Construction remodeled the kitchen in my Santa Fe casita. The space is very small, but they transformed it from cramped and outdated into a bight jewel that is a joy to cook in. I was extremely impressed with how they made use of every inch of space. The best, though? The gorgeous, hand glazed cabinets. The whole team, from the painters to the electrician, to the plumber did wonderful work, even when we had to get creative to solve space issues. I couldn't be happier, and already have them schedule to do more work.

Douglas is a man of integrity. ALL of his subcontractors would be someone I would invite to dinner! When ever there was a problem, Douglas made sure it was attended to immediately. After the construction we discovered a broken pipe...not one his team had installed, but he paid through his insurance for the entire redo of the area where the pipe broke. The insurance company said they could not believe that Douglas did not want to contest any part of the claim. They said he must be a terrific person. Regarding the construction.: Douglas designed a .5 bath and a .75 bath from a former ugly, useless single bath. The design was perfect. Both bathrooms are roomy and contain ore than adequate storage for everything and more. Everyone who has seen it has been very impressed.
