"I had my garden and bathroom remodel done. Albert and Samuel were professional, friendly, and a delight to work with. They're responsive and reliable. I also like the subcontractors whom they used on my project. They kept me informed of everything and I appreciate their excellent work."
"I was skeptical at first to hire someone that wasn't licensed but Ed does have Liability Insurance so that made me much more comfortable. Once they started the project I was so impressed with what Ed knew about the work he was hired to do. He gave suggestions when needed and even went and picked up and picked out various appliances and fixtures which were worked out well. It sure made my job a lot easier. Ed's background makes him great for owning his own company and becoming a success. I highly recommend Ed."
"Asher and his team delivered the job on time and met our discussed estimates budget! They included my wife and I in the decision making process from beginning to end. They were respectful and a pleasure to work with and completely trustworthy. I would recommend them to friends and family without hesitation. -R"
"I worked with Daniel and he was very prompt and responsive, did exactly what he said he'd do. He worked underneath the house in an area I couldn't access. Took and showed me pics to illustrate the issues and he worked excellently."
"Nextgen Home Repair did our bathroom remodel and they did such a great job. Honestly what I liked most was how easy they made everything. Remodeling can be stressful, but they kept us updated and explained things clearly along the way.
The attention to detail really stood out, the tile work looks amazing and everything feels solid and well done. They were respectful of our home and made sure things were cleaned up at the end of each day. The finished bathroom looks modern and exactly like we envisioned it. I would absolutely recommend them."
"Cesar is amazing. He build a man cave complete with a vaulted tongue and groove ceiling and exposed beams. The warm was impeccable and Cesar is extremely professional and all good guy to be around."

Professional remodelers streamline the process, manage permits, and handle renovations efficiently—significantly mitigating risk while maintaining standards.
Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment, typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost. This upfront payment helps cover the costs of materials, permits, and subcontractors. The remaining project costs are usually billed after specific project milestones are reached or on set completion dates, as outlined in your contract. Be wary of contractors who require a significant deposit of 50% or more upfront, as this could be a red flag for a scam.
Yes, you can add a kitchenette to a basement. However, you’ll have to consider the costs associated with basement kitchenettes. If you’re starting from scratch in an unfinished basement, you’ll need to account for brand-new plumbing, electrical, flooring, and more in addition to the cost of the kitchenette. If you’re putting a kitchenette in an already finished basement equipped with plumbing and electrical, you’ll save considerable money.
In addition to overseeing new home builds, construction managers work on large renovations and major remodels. For example, they may work with designers and oversee the construction of a finished basement, kitchen renovation, or a home addition. They may also oversee large-scale remodels, such as the update of a historic home. Construction managers step into small projects for more specific assistance, such as building budgets and compiling the team.
Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.
