"Lou and his crew are the most courteous, competent, responsive, and professional contractors that I have worked with. The quality of their work met or surpassed my admittedly high expectations. They don't cut corners or just slap a thing together. They took the time to do the job right. The work was done on my 82 year old father's house. Lou, Brandon, and every person on that crew made sure that Dad felt heard and respected. They are good people who I plan to call for more work in the future."
"Very professional. Completed the job in two weeks. The deliverables were as promised. They were very independent, requiring only minimal involvement from the client. However, communication with the owner could be enhanced a bit."
"This bathroom remodel was flawless snd wonderful. Every aspect is praiseworthy. Roget snd his skilled team are the best. Everything we were told was carried through. They showed up on time, worked carefully and cleanly and were very helpful with suggestions. Roger could always be reached and helped us in saving a lot of money in materials We are beyond delighted and will recommend Mt. Tam Construction to anyone looking for quality in craftsmanship and humanity."
"I really like and love my kitchen and floor refinishing done by Alfredo, and Emmanuel upstairs. I will gladly recommend Expert Home Builders to my friends and people."
"We loved working with Repair and Remodel Experts. They were professional, polite, accommodating and stayed on task. They met our deadline and the work they did was fantastic. Being a church, we appreciated their work ethic and the demeanor of their crew. We didn't have to worry that we would have visitors who might hear inappropriate behavior or language coming from the construction area (which was right next to our current office space. "
"After scouring the internet and some friends for local contractors that can remodel my kitchen, I came across Landmark Construction (Charlie) who provided me with a quote that I was comfortable with and that included all the items that I wanted to have in my new kitchen. I hired Charlie and his team of workers to renovate my kitchen, guest bathroom and install new hardwood floors throughout my house. Now that the project is completed, I could not be happier with the end results. The most important thing for me (besides quality of work), was the communication between me and Charlie since I have a very busy schedule and Charlie was always responsive to all my requests. My new kitchen and guest bathroom looks amazing. The floor came out beautiful. Charlie gave me a time frame of 4-5 weeks for this renovation. But they were able to finish a little bit sooner than that and I was extremely happy. I highly recommend Landmark Construction based on my great experience. "
"Once I sent her all the measurements, it took her a little while to get the options back to me. Overall, they're good designs. However, they're very simplistic and give general ideas for space planning. I was hoping to have a better idea for sizes of furniture for the space and some variations on staging. Jill was very responsive when I did have a question. I'm not sure how helpful it is to have a virtual design done. If we lived in similar cities, I'd probably use her again for help with additional designs. "
"Finally an honest Solar company!! I went through several companies trying to get quotes for one of my properties, either they were ridiculously expensive or they didn't return my calls. A friend of mine referred me to Mega Sun and I have to say I am very pleased. Within a couple days from the initial phone call I already had an estimate and once i decided to go with them the installation was completed in one week. Its been a little over a month since they completed the install and everything is working smoothly.
I was amazed at just how great the customer service was. I just want to say thank you to the whole team who helped out, I really appreciate all your hard work. Now I know you guys are the ones to call for all future jobs."
"Just finished our kitchen and bathroom remodel with Ocean Seven Builders and happy we went with them. Ron helped us through the whole process and made it simple. He was always available when we had questions and gave honest advice when we were choosing materials. The kitchen looks open and bright now, and the bathroom finally feels updated instead of old and cramped. Solid work and good people."
"They are a nice provider. I talked to them on the phone for about 30 minutes and they sent some samples. We were able to get a discount on designer purchases but not useful on designing the space. Once we told them what we wanted, they were able to help purchase from the warehouse and save about $1,500. I think they became too busy with this big deal. You buy a ticket per room and we still actually have a couple left with this provider. After redesigning one room, we kind of ran out of steam and have not designed the other rooms. Overall this is a good service and it's a good concept. Whomever I spoke with, she was really nice. I would recommend this provider. This kind of service seems to be for people with time and knows exactly what they want. They are super helpful with the designer discount from the warehouse. They don't actual design your room which is slight flaw."
Kitchen and Bathroom Remodel questions, answered by experts
When working on your bathroom floor tiling, you should always tile the floor first and then refit the toilet afterward. This has both practical and visual advantages—the tile will have a better seal, and the installation will look cleaner.
On the other hand, when you try to cut the tiles to fit around the toilet, you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. It’s a lot more work, it’s hard to be precise, and mistakes or miscalculations can lead to future moisture damage to the tiling, grout, and subfloor.
Whether you should buy a shower stall or build a shower depends on your needs, budget, and overall shower design preferences. Prefabricated shower stalls are less expensive to buy and install than custom showers, but they come in limited styles, colors, and sizes. If you have a unique or specific design in mind or special requirements like accessibility features, hire a professional shower contractor. Custom showers installed by a pro can also last longer than prefabricated shower stalls.
Undertaking a bathroom demolition might seem achievable for a DIY enthusiast, but it's a substantial endeavor that works up a sweat. Before diving into the teardown, it is essential to acknowledge the associated risks and complete the necessary preparations, including permits and a plan for waste management. From gathering the right tools to ensuring utility shut-off, these measures are vital to a successful outcome and mitigating potential pitfalls.
To fill the gap between your bathroom vanity and the side wall, a simple DIY caulk application should do the trick. Applying a bead of caulk along the gap creates a seamless finish while also helping to protect the wall and prevent dust or debris from accumulating in the space.
Kitchens and bathrooms are typically the most expensive rooms to renovate. The high cost is due to several factors, including expensive appliances like ranges, hoods, and refrigerators, as well as costly fixtures. The 'bones' of the room, such as electrical and plumbing, are also expensive to move or replace. Because of the vast amount of prep work, finishing, and specialized labor involved in a relatively small footprint, these projects can cost double or more than a living space remodel. Even when trying to renovate on a budget, kitchens and bathrooms will likely carry a hefty price tag.
