"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.

Tam Construction to anyone looking for quality in craftsmanship and humanity."
"Expert Home Builders did an excellent job with our kitchen remodel! They're easy to work with and very professional. Starting at the beginning, our quote was detailed and easy to understand. As part of the design for our new kitchen, their professional’s helped us pick out the exact materials we wanted. They take their work product and customer satisfaction very seriously! We are extremely happy with the overall quality and finished product of our kitchen. It’s a dream come true! These guys do top notch work! We will definitely have them back when it's time to remodel the bathroom!"
"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. "
"Excellent Service from planning through Execution and installation to final fine tuning. The folks communicated well and explained every detail of the step. Got permit and inspection done. It was seamless. Thanks. R."
"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."
