BUSINESS: Heritage Renovations

“If you can dream it, we can build it!” That is the motto of Leslie and Dan Peake, owners of Heritage Renovations and experts in the home renovation business since 1985. Using the latest in architectural software, high-grade woods and their own cabinet shop to produce the highest quality materials, they ensure your renovation project will be a success.

“We use a lot of high-tech machinery so we do produce the best quality cabinets possible, whereas most remodeling companies will build their cabinets on site, which means at the owner’s house,” explains Leslie. “You just cannot get the same quality.”

During their 25 years of experience, the Peakes have completed thousands of projects. These not only include homes, but also businesses like Jason’s Deli, Cafe 7 and Panera Bread.

Dan starts out providing a free estimate and discussing all available options. Once the client accepts the estimate, a special architectural program called Chief Architect Design enables the customer to see three-dimensional pictures of the plans and finalize details before work begins.

“We are a complete home renovation company. Kitchens and baths are one of our fortes, but we just finished a beautiful theater room in a home where we renovated their kitchen last year,” said Leslie. “Everything we do has our name on it. We were born and raised here and we try to keep up our values and always think of our customer’s convenience first.”

As an experienced interior decorator, Leslie often goes with clients to pick out items from the showrooms, reducing the stress and confusion clients might experience when faced with so many choices. A smooth and stress-free experience, beautiful results and making their clients’ dreams come true are among their primary goals. They keep the work area clean, often bringing in special equipment to reduce dust and dirt, and complete the project as quickly as possible.

Heritage Renovations works directly with Historical Preservation Societies when working on homes in historical neighborhoods like Crown Heights and Heritage Hills, anticipating they will have specific requirements when it comes to renovations. The Peakes also work within a customer’s budget and provide a two-year workmanship warranty.

“Many of our customers turn into our friends,” said Leslie. “I would say that more than half of our projects come from repeat business and referrals from previous clients.” She said references are available by request or can be found on Angie’s List where they hold an A rating.
