Andrew Stein began his career learning hands-on from the finest builders on the Main Line. In 1973 he began contracting on his own and in 1986 formed Design Manifest Inc., going on to complete thousands of projects from for families on the Main Line and surrounding suburbs. Andrew retired from active contracting in 2017 after 47 years in the industry. He is now offering his experience, wisdom and integrity to homeowners, realtors and residential contractors.

Licensed in Lower Merion for over 40 years, Andrew’s professional record reflects his impeccable reputation. Design Manifest Inc. was a sought-after contractor who completed multiple multi- million dollars projects as well as many other jobs of every size. Loved by his clients for his kindness, honesty, skills, creativity, and follow-through, he consistently returned every call, completed every project on a timely basis, and was always accountable around his agreements. Clients often became repeat clients and even ‘clients for life’, seeking him out decades after their first project with Design Manifest.

Andrew is a past Treasurer and President of the National Kitchen and Bath Association – Mid Atlantic, as well as being a NKBA Certified Kitchen and Bath Designer. He has continued to study construction methods, scheduling and management practices, estimating and risk mitigation methods.

Andrew acts as owner’s agent, representing the homeowner. The best time to contact him is early in the process, before a contract is signed. He can help expedite the project, discuss options and suggest questions and clarifications that should be made.
