At Sandifer,

We build Better

Your project is personal to us. So personal, in fact, that we started Sandifer in 2005 because we knew there was a better way to build client homes and relationships. It never sat right with us when we heard stories from people who felt like a number, or in the dark on their project status and without contact continuity. But we know that creating dream spaces is just as much about providing an expert design + build experience as it is about cultivating real relationships with those we work with. So, we made it our mission to deliver only the best, most high-touch experiences to our clients. Today, we’re recognized for the caliber, design and dependability of our custom builds and renovation projects, as well as an unparalleled customer experience. From the quality of the build to the quality of our client relationships, here at Sandifer, We Build Better.

We know your time and energy are precious, which is why you need a partner you’re confident can manage every last detail. Our team’s hyperfocus on building trust and delivering high-touch experiences means that we’re able to relieve our clients from the daily decision-making grind that’s common with most building projects (because we’re not most building partners). Our goal is to keep you informed, but not in the weeds. Engaged, but not overwhelmed. Excited, but not anxious. A win for us is delivering the home of your dreams and making the journey to get there a pleasant one.

At the heart of our approach is a deep commitment to nurturing strong relationships with our clients

Nick Sandifer

Owner

With degrees in Real Estate Finance, Appraisal, and Feasibility, Nick started his building career on a strong foundation. With experience working for both national and local custom builders, Nick knew he was ready to do things on his own terms in order to make the customer experience just as special as the build. He never settles, and is dedicated to making every last detail feel perfect. When he’s not co-running Sandifer Design Build, Nick loves hanging with Chelsea and the kids, cooking, fishing, and working out.

Co-Owner

Meet the woman working hard behind the scenes to manage every aspect of Sandifer Design Build operations. She brings attention to detail and a knack for client communications to her role in this husband-and-wife-owned family business. Outside of work, Chelsea loves to travel and spend time with Nick and their four children, Paige, Cole, Wyatt, and Iyla.

Edward

Edward began his career in 1991 at a furniture manufacturing company, developing a passion for the manufacturing process while working on the production floor. He gained experience in Lean Manufacturing at a college furniture manufacturer in Washington and progressed to become a Plant Manager, contributing to improved throughput. Edward later served as Operations Manager for a custom cabinet manufacturer and Warehouse Manager for a millwork company in Colorado, managing shipping, receiving, and production schedules. With over 25 years in management, Edward excels in purchasing, negotiation, and project management. He is also a proud U.S. Army Reserves veteran and enjoys spending time with his wife, riding his Harley, spoiling his granddaughter, and participating in challenging races like Spartan Races and Half Marathons.

Shelly

Office Manager

Shelly has been supporting the design and build of luxury custom homes since 2016, with experience working on different parts of the process. She loves meeting new clients and watching the progression of a design as it comes to life. When she’s working for Sandifer Design Build, you can find her fishing, volunteering, and hanging at the beach.

Larry

Project Manager

Larry comes from a long line of construction pros and built a love for design from a young age (who wouldn’t when your payment for remodeling a Dairy Queen restaurant came in the form of milkshakes and hotdogs?). With a keen eye for detail and commitment to getting the job done right (and as efficiently as possible), his affinity for construction makes work feel more like a hobby than a job. Outside of Sandifer, Larry enjoys spending time with his wife of 50 years and their 5 kids, 11 grandchildren, and 8 great-grandchildren.

Lenny

Estimating & Purchasing

You’ll find proof of Lenny’s precision in residential and commercial spaces from Washington and Texas to Florida. He has worn many hats throughout his building career, and has a deep bench of tools to draw from when it comes to his work at Sandifer Design Build. If he’s not spending time with his family, you’ll find him golfing, relaxing at the beach, and cheering for the Seahawks.
