My job
is to help you
create your dream space.

MY DAD LOVED HIS FAMILY SO I ESTABLISHED
DB&C AFTER MY THREE WONDERFUL CHILDREN.

I spent twelve years managing my father’s HVAC business, where he dedicated more than four decades to serving families across Washington with integrity and care. After losing him to cancer, I chose to pursue my lifelong passion for design.

Today, I create thoughtful residential and commercial spaces, building a woman-owned design and build business rooted in reliability, strong work ethic, and a commitment to redefining the client experience while honoring the legacy my father instilled in me.

Operating a business was familiar territory for me; what was new was uncovering my true passion and turning it into a venture of my own.

My Story

Proudly establishing a woman-owned design-build company, I was able to help people beautify their homes, continue to sustain my strong work ethic and provide for my family.

Our Leadership

A PROUD WOMAN-LED TEAM, BRINGING THOUGHTFUL LEADERSHIP AND REFINED EXECUTION TO EVERY SPACE WE CREATE.

PROJECT MANAGER
Cece helps to oversee the overall operations of our current projects. She works collaboratively with clients to consult on and select materials for their individual needs. She assists in supervising various aspects of the project so that it runs smoothly.

When Cece has free time you can find her working out, traveling, playing with her cats or enjoying a delicious glass of wine!

DESIGNER
Tori brings a great deal of design talent to our team. Her knowledge and experience are invaluable. Her specialty is design and consulting for all home interior remodeling projects.

When Tori is not hard at work she enjoys concert venues, her fur baby, reading and spending time doing things in the great outdoors.

DESIGNER
A longtime Darnestown resident, who now loves calling the Lakelands home, Elyn is a proud mom of three beautiful daughters and loves being a grandmother. With a natural eye for design, she has a gift for helping our clients bring their vision to life and create spaces that feel beautifully their own.

Outside of design, Elyn loves exercise classes, traveling, and spending time with her family. We’re so lucky to have her as part of the DB&C team.

my other passions…

Not only do I love helping my human clients, but I try to help animals too. I work with several animal rescue organizations to foster animals until they find their forever homes.

 I love outdoor spaces as much as I love indoor spaces.

If I have a choice between skiing or the beach - put me on the beach any day of the week!

  • Beautiful painting work! A team we trust! Thank you, Lorraine!

    ~ Marie C.

  • Lorraine and her team poured so much care and attention into our kitchen that trusting them with our primary bath was an easy decision. What we didn't expect was their home styling expertise as well. We left for the day, and when we returned, our home looked as though it belonged in a magazine. Grateful doesn't begin to capture how we feel.

    ~ Deana

  • So blessed to have our new kitchen and fireplace to enjoy-we love it and are so grateful for the time and hard work that went into this transformation.

    ~ Nina C.

  • You & your team were awesome.

    ~ Paul S.

  • My husband & I called DB&C when we needed to sell our home. We had limited time to get repairs done. The DB&C team came out in less than 72 hours & completed all tasks. They did a fantastic job. We have referred DB&C to many of our friends & colleagues.

    ~ Andre & Jessica H.

  • I am delighted with my beautiful new bathrooms. I recommend Lorraine and her crew without reservation. They showed up on time, went above and beyond and did a wonderful job. They exceeded my expectations.

    ~Barbara A.

  • As a real estate professional, I truly appreciate working with DB&C when representing buyers and sellers. Their attention to detail, workmanship and staying on schedule are paramount to this business. Lorraine and her team help make my job easy. I highly recommend DB&C to get the job done and done right!

    ~ Karla T.

  • DB&C does great work - they use experienced, trusted service providers to deliver high-quality, timely results. Lorraine listens to my wishes and concerns and customizes services to meet my needs. She's excellent at staying in touch. So far we have done exterior work including painting and landscaping, and still to come soon is the replacement of several old windows. I still have interior work to be done and will call DB&C first for their recommendations. I'm very pleased with how things look and would not hesitate to recommend DB&C to my friends.

    ~ Meg M.

  • DB&C does the best job on floors! Lorraine is wonderful to work with, reasonably priced and gets the job done on time!

    ~ Amy S.

  • We can't thank the DB&C team enough for our amazing bathroom transformation!

    ~ Gabby C.
