Our process

  • “Holy moly, we absolutely love the renovations Zen completed for us. They walked us through the whole process making it less scary and exciting. They went above and beyond cleaning at the end of the day (better than how our house normally looks). After the renovations were completed they made sure to answer any questions! We had some plans and they made them come to life and practical.”
