What do recent reviews say?

Most projects finish on time or early with high-quality finishes, from kitchen layouts to full-floor renovations. Reviewers praise the in-house team coordination, design renderings, and material samples available at their showroom. Two dated reviews flag serious conduct concerns; a more recent cabinet installation left a customer waiting weeks for a sink after a missing-stock issue went unresolved by sales staff.

FAQ

Will my project finish on schedule?
Most recent projects finished on time or ahead of schedule, including a full first-floor renovation completed on the promised date. Supply delays (e.g., during COVID) extended one project about 45 days, but the team coordinated crews to work on other tasks.
Can I see design ideas before the work starts?
Yes. Their showroom displays material samples for countertops, cabinets, flooring, and backsplash. Staff also provide 3D renderings of cabinet layouts and design changes.
Do they manage plumbing and electrical work or just carpentry?
They coordinate all trades in-house: plumbers, electricians, painters, and cabinet installers handle their portions, so you deal with one company from demolition to final paint.

Installation is typically handled with care and precision, from template creation to final seam placement. Staff spend time understanding each customer's vision and walk through options patiently, whether you're doing the bathroom yourself or managing a commercial project. Named installers like Clei and owners like Clay deliver on tight timelines and attend to finishes most would miss. Serena, Sara, and the broader team appear across reviews as knowledgeable and accommodating, often going beyond standard scope (cutting unusual stone pieces, late Saturday hours for walk-ins, supplier referrals). Prices are positioned as competitive with big-box alternatives while quality noticeably exceeds them.

Basement work consistently earns high marks for craft and crew professionalism; kitchen projects reveal persistent gaps in communication and design decision-making. Owners praise the on-site tradesmen but report that Randy and management ordered work without approval, missed deadlines quietly, and showed little urgency when addressing concerns. Smaller fixes and rec-room conversions run smoothly; complex remodels with significant design input carry real risk of frustration.

Every project reviewed arrived on schedule and met or exceeded expectations. Mike and his crew bring precision to every phase, from permitting and design input to final walkthrough, and they charge fairly for top-tier work. Reviewers consistently note the team's organized approach and responsiveness. Whether the job is a kitchen remodel, bathroom renovation, or commercial pergola, staff communicate what to expect and clean up afterward. A repeat client brought Mike in to fix another contractor's sloppy work and was impressed enough to book him again.
