Adding a second story over a two-car garage is one of the projects customers describe hiring Taylor Bryan Company to manage. In a May 2025 Houzz review, a homeowner said Kelly Neale and the company handled that addition to a ranch home overlooking a golf course. The customer praised the management of a multistage build and an online system for schedules, change requests, payments and design documents. The Suffield company describes itself as a design, build and remodeling firm. Its kitchen and bathroom work includes full renovations: a January 2018 customer described a kitchen and family-room remodel, plus improvements to an adjoining half bath, from demolition down to the studs through permitting and rebuilding. They said the project finished on time and on budget, with Kelly and Jill regularly supervising onsite. In November 2022, another homeowner praised a kitchen, full-bath and half-bath renovation during pandemic shortages, including Kelly and Jill’s help finding products and making selections. Customers have also hired the team while living far away. A November 2022 reviewer described managing a whole-house remodel from Asia across a 12-hour time difference, praising Kelly’s team for coordinating vendors and helping with decisions. A March 2022 customer said Kelly and Jill completed a basement renovation that created space for their family. For a sunroom project, an August 2021 reviewer praised Alex’s updates and the regularly maintained online milestones, along with Jill’s help choosing tiles and finishes. In January 2021, Jenn D. of Suffield described Alex’s initial ideas, Jill’s help with selections, and Scott’s work from demolition through completion; she praised his punctuality and daily cleanup. A January 2018 den customer described bookcases, a mantel and built-in window seats, with woodworking and painting by the team and custom upholstery by Taylor. An October 2016 customer described a completed accessible master-bathroom renovation, including a gut remodel, custom cabinets and coordinated tile, plumbing, glass and electrical subcontractors. The customer praised project manager Dave’s daily presence and cleanup.

“Taylor Bryan Company Whole House Remodel We supplied lumber, windows, interior doors and interior moulding for this whole house remodeling project.”
Several years ago we bought a small ranch abutting several holes of a golf course with a view of downtown Hartford. The house ticked all the boxes, however quite soon we realized we were missing an even more spectacular view (of even more greens and tee boxes..;-) because we didn’t have a second story. Eyeing our 2-car garage, we decided to add an addition over the garage with views in every direction. Little did we know at the time that ‘adding a level’ is a ‘complex project with a high degree of difficulty’ requiring professional expertise beyond the ordinary. Thank God we hired Kelly Neale and Taylor Bryan to oversee this huge undertaking!! What stands out about the company is the project management approach, overseen by the owner of the company and supplemented by software (accessible to the customer) to track scheduling, change requests, payment status, history and design documents. Their responsiveness to our questions or issues seemed instantaneous at times, greatly enhancing overall project communication. Taylor Bryan exudes professionalism throughout the staff which carries over to their sub-contractors. There was always an air of friendly, open and customer-oriented collaboration throughout the project. These guys have been in the business for awhile and know how to plan for, manage and complete sophisticated, multi-stage builds/renovations. We have gut-renovated several condos and rebuilt an antique home in Lyme CT over the past 15 years. No one came even close to the caliber, skill level, trust-worthiness and professionalism of Taylor Bryan. As an added bonus, the entire team possesses a sense of humor that makes having them around (and in) our home a relatively pleasant experience, despite the noise and disruption.
We hired Taylor Bryan company for remodeling of our kitchen, a full bath, and half bathroom. And in the height of the pandemic, when products and the labor force were scarce, we still had the best experience. Kelly and Jill worked diligently to find the items on our wish list, and were very patient with us, when creating and choosing products for our new space. They are exceptionally talented. The thoughtful design and the craftsmanship is of quality that comes from creating with passion, care, and attention to detail. They are honest, return calls in timely manner, and follow up when there is a question or a concern. From start to finish the job went smoothly, and if there was any concern, Kelly was at the job site. I would highly recommend Taylor Bryant and his family crew for any other projects. In fact, Jill is designing an outdoor patio space for us!
We worked with Kelly and his team almost entirely remotely on our whole house remodelling project because we were based in Asia during the time of the project. Working remotely and with 12 hours time difference. Kelly and his team is very courteous and flexible. They would go the extra mile to help us coordinate with all the vendors when we are not available. Willing to be flexible and provide us with professional suggestions as we made decisions big and small remotely. They have earned our trust by being transparent and attentive. We are very glad to have chosen Kelly’s team for this big task.
Kelly and Jill are wonderful people to work with! They completed our basement redo which turned out fantastic. They focus on quality and created a wonderful space for our family to enjoy. I would highly recommend them.
This was our first experience with Taylor Bryan company and it was very professional and customer-oriented from start to finish. Excellent quality, clear communication and thorough and professional in all interactions. Alex always kept us notified of what’s happening next and we loved that they made the plan/ key milestones for our project available through an online app and kept it updated regularly. When it came to picking tiles and interior choices for our new space, Jill was awesome with her guidance and help. We really appreciated her inputs and she was very patient as we worked through options. Overall, it was a great experience and we love everything about our new sunroom!
