We feel incredibly lucky to have worked with Cecy on our bathroom renovation. We recently purchased an older home that has a lot of charm—but also plenty of quirks—and Cecy was amazing at helping guide us through the entire process. As both a general contractor and someone with a great design eye, she helped us navigate decisions that could have easily felt overwhelming and brought thoughtful solutions that worked beautifully with the character of the house. Cecy’s team was also wonderful to have in our home. Every member of her staff was incredibly sweet, kind, and hardworking.

I highly recommend Cecy and her team. She is professional, efficient, cost conscious, organized and has a great eye for design and attention to detail. She remodeled our basement area into a home gym including flooring, HVAC, paint, and lighting. We couldn’t be happier!

Cecy and Team were very professional, detail oriented, and communicative. The team was able to rectify a prior contractor’s mistakes while strategically approaching our project in an effort to maintain the integrity of the bathroom’s correct areas. The team also helped us to understand the financial situation of the corrections beforehand and as the project progressed. I would def trust Cecy and Team to work on any area of my home because I know the work will be done correctly and will be finished in a beautifully detailed manner!

Cecy and her team did a full bathroom renovation and bedroom face lift for the master suite in our home. The renovation included window replacements and the installation of new lighting and plumbing fixtures requiring significant electrical and plumbing rework in addition to the carpentry and tile work. They were cost effective, professional, skilled at problem solving and attentive to our needs. Cecy provided invaluable advice toward the various design decision we needed to make and was very efficient in developing and executing the actual renovation plans and work. The team maintained a clean and orderly work environment and there was little disruption to our daily lives while the project was underway.

Cecy handled a full renovation of our new home, including three new bathrooms, a finished basement, a new office space, and a wide range of additional improvements. She brought strong ideas to the table and connected us with skilled professionals throughout the process. She collaborated smoothly with our architect and interior designer, which made the entire project run far more efficiently. Her crew was courteous, friendly, and consistently helpful. They kept the workspace clean and showed real attention to detail in everything they did. Cecy was responsive to any concern that came up, and when we hit roadblocks, she quickly found practical workarounds to keep things moving. I highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again on future projects.

Cecy and team did a wonderful job building our basement bathroom from scratch! Always professional, quick to address design and build questions - Cecy always made herself available. And her crew always kept a clean working environment.

We have worked with Cecy Gillen Designs on three home renovations (our primary bathroom, installing a mudroom, and installing a laundry room with cabinets and shelving) and we cannot recommend Cecy and her team highly enough. She has an excellent eye for design. Every time we present her with an idea, she internalizes our vision and improves upon it with her own great ideas. She responds to our questions and concerns in a timely manner and her team is efficient and friendly. We look forward to working with Cecy Gillen Designs on future home improvements.

Cecy Gillen Designs did a deck renovation for us and not only did they do a great job, but when they were finished, are yard and area where they did the work was spotless. No nails, no screws no debris, etc.

Cecy was wonderful to work with. She came with ideas, confidence and professionalism and was so communicative along the way with our basement reno. Her team was respectful and showed up when they said they would. We were so happy with the outcome! Cecy was also knowledgeable and helpful in talking through options when we had questions along the way. I highly recommend her and her team and will absolutely work with them again in the future.

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
