WHERE WEST MICHIGAN TURNS TO MAKE THEIR HOUSE A HOME SINCE 2018
Hi, We're Jessica Crosby and Monica Denhof
Our passion is helping you and other homeowners to love your space.
We started Delight In Designs in 2018 with a goal in mind: to reset industry expectations. Contractors should show up on time, listen to their homeowners, and leave them feeling like their expectations have been exceeded.
We love the design aspect of home remodels, but we couldn’t do it alone. This is why we hired a top-notch team to help us transform your space!
We’re a family-owned business, which is a huge reason as to why we consider each client part of our family.
Welcome to the Delight In Designs family!
