Dave Schmidt and Mike Schwartz had a mutual dream of owning their own remodeling business. They decided to leave their corporate jobs behind and establish Built by Design, LLC in 2004. Built by Design focused on residential remodeling, and Dave and Mike quickly earned a solid reputation from Olathe, Overland Park and Leawood to Kansas City, Independence and Gladstone – and everywhere in between – for quality craftsmanship, superior customer service and client satisfaction.
