Meet the people behind Laureti Design & Build.
Art Laureti
Over 25 years ago Art chose to make home design and building his life’s work. Through his years of working in the home improvement market, he has learned that customer satisfaction succeeds not merely the highest levels of experience, quality, workmanship, service and design. As a result, every project he pursues incorporates his clients’ own ideas, personalities and dreams. This is what makes a house not merely a structure, but a home where memories are made.
Art personally manages Laureti Design and Build. From design and remodeling to additions and custom finishing work, Laureti Design and Build has the reputation and the expertise to get the job done beautifully and professionally.
Art currently resides in Langhorne with his wife, Karen and they have a daughter (Sara) and a son (Andrew). In his spare time, Art enjoys cheering on the Philadelphia Flyers and exploring historic Bucks County.
“Communication is key. We believe in thorough communication before construction begins. It is important to listen to the client’s input – your concerns and expectations, your ideas and opinions. Your satisfaction is important to us, and you can rest assured that productive and supportive communication will persist throughout the lifespan of the project.”
Martin Makes
Martin Makes was born and raised in Czech Republic, graduating from High School in 1993. His original academic interest was Architecture. He completed an Associate’s Degree in 1995.
As a young man, Martin's summers were spent working in most aspects of construction.
In the late 90’s he left Czech and moved to New York.
Martin began his construction career in upstate New York, Connecticut, New Jersey and finally in Pennsylvania. He worked his way up through the ranks, honing his construction skills to the level of a journeyman carpenter. While working in the Philadelphia high-end residential construction, Martin realized that a career as a General Contractor was his calling. He spent the next eighteen years developing a reputation as a quality contractor in Bucks County and surrounding areas. As a General contractor he has always been active in design and drawing plans. His ability to problem solve as well as effectively communicate ideas and concepts has been the key to his success in both building and design.
Martin brings a very specific skill set and point of view to the clients he serves. His years of direct building experience have given him a strong background in the structural mechanics of modern construction. Whether he's working on a new home or remodel, he combines that construction knowledge with natural geometric awareness, strong visualization skills, and an artistic flair. He puts a lot of effort into making the clients happy.
Compared to other contractors, Martin Makes offers a higher level of customer service and attention to detail. He acquires most new clients through the recommendations of satisfied homeowners.
