Customer's reviews
Steve and Kirsten at Appel Design and Construction are very friendly and great to work with! We are very satisfied with their attention to details and would recommend them to anyone looking to take on remodel projects. They are exceptional at minimizing down time between subs coming in to perform the next task. As a result they came in at the agreed to cost and schedule for our project! Navigating the unexpected situations that inevitably occur during construction projects is a strength due to their flexibility and creative thinking. They also are supportive when it comes to accommodating special requests which was important for us. We are hiring them to take on future projects for our home!

Steve and Kirsten, the owners of Appel design and construction have a keen eye and skill for any remodeling/design needs you may have. They remodeled my entire home in Bend. When I first was looking into having a total over hall of my home I had no idea where to start. Kirsten and Steve came over for a consultation and I immediately felt at ease. Considering I don’t live locally I was in need of a team I could really trust. They were very communicative, budget conscious and finished the project on time. Their attention to detail is remarkable and I am amazed on how they could see the big picture before I could. I would trust them with any future remodel or design needs and would recommend them 100 times over. Anyone who is in need of a home transformation, these are your people!

Working with Kirstin and Steve was an outstanding experience from start to finish. They are professional, communicative, and incredibly attentive to detail. It’s clear they truly care about the people they work with and put real passion into every project.
Whether you’re planning a full remodel or just need guidance with furniture, finishes, or design direction, they make the entire process smooth and stress-free. Their creativity, organization, and craftsmanship really set them apart. I can confidently say choosing them was one of the best decisions we made for our home.
If you’re in Bend, Oregon and looking for a team you can trust with your home, I highly recommend Kirstin and Steve.
