Timeless Design

"We knew years before we built our current home that it would be with Mike Chinelli. His creative mind & attention to detail stood out, he is more than a contractor he is a creator. Once we met with him we also could see that his integrity and knowledge of his business and craft were a standout. As we moved through the process of meetings and construction we watched our visions come to life. The timeless design of our home has given us daily pleasure for the last 14 years and will for many more to come. Thank You Mike Chinelli!”

Truly Magnificent Custom Home

“Our home is a work of art. We cannot thank Mike Chinelli and his team enough for building us a truly magnificent home. His vision, creativity, and attention to detail are what set him apart from other builders. Our two-year journey in planning and building our dream home was both professional and friendly. We have a home that we love and enjoy and it only gets better with time. It is a Mike Chinelli masterpiece...and for that we are forever grateful.”

Custom Dream Home in Deland

“After relocating to Deland in 2000 we had our first meeting with Mike Chinelli to discuss our thoughts for our dream home to be built on a lot we had bought a few years earlier. Mike had been recommended to us by a number of our soon to be neighbors and after walking the lot it was obvious that he was able to see our vision and a truly unique design resulted. As the project progressed Mike was actively engaged, keeping us abreast of all the important details, but his oversight of the subcontractors and suppliers insured that the workmanship met his high standards. From concept to completion, Mike delivered our new home on time, within our budget and with no short cuts. We would recommend Chinelli Design Build to anyone.”

Custom-made Home in DeBary

“Mike Chinelli built a beautiful house for us in 1994. He walked us through the whole thing and made it easy. With his help, we ended up with just what I wanted – a house like my grandmother’s. After 18 years, we decided to add a great room on the back and a bathroom, and to remodel the kitchen. We’re still living in the chaos of the remodel, but it’s been really exciting to come home from work every day and see the progress that has happened. There has been someone here everyday since we started. Mike has great ideas and really helped us figure out what we really wanted. He was very patient as I changed my mind frequently before settling on a plan. Ola is a delight and really takes care of me. She is a master at organizing things and with her help; I know all of the little details that come up will be taken care of in an efficient way. She is great with emails and phone calls and the communication is easy. Mike and Ola are wonderful, caring people and have built us a great house – twice!”

Comprehensive Home Renovation

“Chinelli Design Build executed our renovation project at a great value with a commitment to quality and professionalism. Of the four proposals received, Mike's proposal was the lowest overall price and the most comprehensive with features not included in the other proposals. Mike's attention to detail resulted in a great final product, passerby's stop to comment on what a difference the renovation made. Mike and Ola were always professional and prompt to return our calls. It was a pleasure working with both Mike and Ola and I would highly recommend Chinelli Design Build.”
