Thayer Design Build

Need a non-traditional multi-use space? We love a challenge!

While this laundry room rendering includes elements you wouldn't normally expect to see, it helps solve real issues that our clients were wanting to solve. It features a guest bed, dedicated desk space, a spacious laundry area, lots of storage, and a dog bath. Challenges like these are why we LOVE doing custom design!

Stay tuned for the final product. ✨

Please join us in welcoming Shelby Shoffner to the Thayer Design Build team as our Office Administrator! 🎉

If you've called, emailed, scheduled a meeting, or wondered how all the moving pieces behind a remodeling project stay organized, there's a good chance Shelby is helping make it happen. Shelby brings a talent for organization, problem-solving, and keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes.

Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, following and playing recreational sports, and keeping everyone on their toes with her quick wit and sarcastic sense of humor. She's also a proud Oregon native, lives in Albany with her husband, and was recently inducted into the Northwest Athletic Conference Hall of Fame Class of 2026. 🏆

We're excited to have Shelby on board and look forward to the many ways she'll continue to support our team and the homeowners we serve throughout the Mid-Willamette Valley.

Welcome, Shelby! 👏

Thinking about a remodel?

One of the best ways to understand what the process is really like is to hear directly from homeowners who have been through it.

Our testimonials offer insight into more than the finished spaces. They show what homeowners valued most throughout their project—clear communication, thoughtful planning, attention to detail, and results that improve how their home functions every day.

If you’re considering a kitchen, bathroom, or whole-home remodel, these stories can help you better understand what to expect and what matters when choosing the right remodeling partner.

A whole home remodel is about more than updating finishes—it’s about creating a home that functions better, flows beautifully, and feels aligned with the way you live.

At Thayer Design Build, we take a thoughtful design-build approach to help homeowners reimagine their spaces with clarity, craftsmanship, and long-term livability in mind.

At Thayer Design Build, team culture is more than a “nice to have”—it is how projects stay thoughtful, organized, and beautifully executed.

When designers, project managers, and carpenters communicate clearly, your remodel feels more coordinated from first sketch to final walk-through.

What qualities do you value most in the team you trust with your home?

One of the least glamorous parts of a home remodel is also one of the most important: figuring out what to do with your furniture.

If you’re remodeling a kitchen, bathroom, primary suite, or multiple areas of your home, your furniture can’t simply stay put and hope for the best.

A dining table shoved into the living room may feel manageable for a few days. A sofa covered in plastic in the garage may seem “good enough” for a while. But once demolition starts, pathways narrow, tools come in, materials arrive, and dust becomes part of daily life, those temporary solutions can start to feel a lot less workable.

That’s why having a furniture storage plan before construction begins can make such a big difference. It helps protect your belongings, gives your project the space it needs, and makes the process feel much more manageable from the start.
