The entire project was handled with the highest level of professionalism from start to finish. All the work was executed flawlessly and the craftsmanship exceeded my expectations. The work was completed on time, as agreed on, no delays. Communication throughout the remodel was concise, responsive and easy making the whole experience enjoyable and stress free. I would highly recommend Coastal Design Remodeling to anyone looking for quality work done right the first time with no delays.

Extremely satisfied working with Coastal Design Remodeling for our ADU renovation project. Quick project was completed on time at reasonable cost. Quality work to renovate kitchenette, bedrooms, and bathroom including flooring, new cabinets and countertops, toilet and vanity replacement, painting, and new closets. Team provided responsive and prompt communication and helpful collaborative advice. Crew was always prompt and kept the work area clean. Big thanks to Shawn and Team for a rather smooth and successful project! Would definitely work with Coastal Design Remodeling again for future home projects.

Everything was layed out and written up prior to the start so I knew what would be done. They gave me a lot of consultations that helped me decide what would be best in my bathroom. The work done was high quality and they were done very fast for all I had done. They kept the work areas clean and organized. I would definitely recommend them for anything.

We recently had our master bathroom remodeled by Coastal Design and Remodeling. Shawn was knowledgeable, helpful, and kept the project on schedule. He responded very quickly to our texts, emails and calls throughout the process. Any of our requests outside of the original contract were completed quickly at a reasonable price. The team at Coastal Design are skilled professionals who do beautiful work. They protected our carpets and always clean up at the end of every day. We highly recommend them for any home improvement work.

What was remarkable about working with Shawn and his crew was how well they communicated, their reliability (showed up on time every time), the respect they showed to my home and to me, and the integrity they placed on their own work. For example, after a grab bar was installed in the wrong place, Shawn and Steve took immediate steps to relocate it in the proper place. Any other small change I requested was fixed.

We hired Shawn to renovate the first floor of our house (roughly 2000 sq ft). The work sent from September 2022 through February 2023 which felt painfully slow as the renovation did not entail a floor plan change. Iâ ll start with the good. Shawn is polite, well intentioned, and easy to talk to. He also had two subcontractors that did their job well: his tile guys and the painter. Thatâ s where the compliments end. Iâ m not sure where to begin to describe just how bad the level of craftsmanship was when they were done with the job. So many corners were cut. Starting with the kitchen, every cabinet and drawer is slightly off in alignment. Shawn indicated that this is just how cabinets look, but I never got used to just how much the drawers and cabinets would shut with a wobble or not close completely. The gaps between the doors are inconsistent throughout the kitchen. It really does look like a teenager installed everything. Over the course of the last year, a lot of the work has fallen into disrepair and more mistakes have come to light. For example, the dishwasher was not installed very well and now moves around. Shortly after construction was done, I also noticed some chips on the edges of the countertop that could not have been made by us since we hadnâ t even used the kitchen that long. The islandâ s wood paneling is horizontal on one side while everywhere else the grain is vertical. We had agreed upon an island that would be 110 inches wide. He ended up installing an island that was only 100 inches wide. many of the hooks in the bathroom were not properly anchored or screwed into studs so they popped out and weâ ve had to reinstall them over the last few months. Even the faucet in the bathtub pops out with a gentle pull because it was not installed properly. There were also mistakes along the construction process such as Shawn removing a bathtub and toilet that he was not supposed to. When the mistake was brought up, he agreed to discount the construction up to a couple hundred dollars for the bathtub and $150 for the toilet, respectively, rather than the true value of the original bathtub (cast iron) and toilet that he had improperly demolished. We also had to ask them back twice to finish the work after they claimed they were done since they left glaring issues behind (eg a 2 inch hole in the drywall next to a light switch) despite all the issues that were still there after their second visit, I was so done with them. I just let them go since I knew this was as good as they were going to be admit I was somewhat surprised when Sean asked me to hire him again when I was ready to remodel the second floor, despite the fact that He had done such a poor job. The worst part about all of this is that weâ ve come to realize that there were far better options for far less money. Like I said at the start, Shawn was a nice guy, but the quality of work for the prices he charged is a ripoff. I noticed that there are number of positive reviews on here which makes me wonder why our situation was such an anomaly. .
Response from Coastal Design Remodeling
"I don't know where to start Frank other than to say I'm very surprised that after a year of completion you have left this negative review. This is disturbing to me because, my team and I take pride in every aspect of our jobs, and to have a satisfied customer is our ultimate goal and, very important to us. I would have addressed any of your legitimate concerns and, only wish I'd been given the opportunity to do so. I do feel it's necessary to address some of these comments as they are not completely accurate. - We started your project in the middle of October (not September) and yes, completed in February. I understand that a little over 4 months to complete your project when you're anxious to move into your new space may have seemed slow to you however, it is quite common when considering the magnitude of your scope. - We did need to adjust the cabinet hinges to align the cabinet doors throughout. This is part of the installation process and I made the adjustments with you present so that I could show you exactly how this works. - Typically a dishwasher has two points of contact to secure. I would have gladly resecured or adjusted. - The final 20/20 design for the kitchen was approved by you so, I'm not sure why the claim that the island should be 10" longer. - A new tub and toilet were listed on your scope pages to be provided by the homeowner. After you mentioned you had wanted to keep these existing items I furnished new replacements. I worked with you to confirm the selections of the new products and paid for them to continue moving forward. - As far as the cost of the project...........you took multiple bids so I don't think it's fair to claim the price you paid was a "rip off". In summary, most of these issues could have easily been remedied given the opportunity and, some of these issues ......(towel bars becoming loose, dishwasher movement, future cabinet adjustments, etc.) can occur from wear. As you know you, have a 1 year labor warranty and we would have been glad to address any of your concerns. Requesting us to address these concerns, I believe would have been a more appropriate course of action rather than leaving this type of review."

Shawn and his team are so awesome! They are thorough, knowledgeable, professional, kind, and fun to work with. We hired Shawn and his team to completely gut and redo a full bathroom. The work is outstanding, and we are so so happy with the final product. Shawn, Steve, Scott, and the rest of the team are true artisans. They take great pride in their work, and they all have a ton of experience and knowledge. They also have great suggestions and recommendations during the design phase. We highly recommend them.

Shawn and his team are true professionals. Communication is always clear and everyone shows up on time, is courteous, tidy and respectful. I was never left wondering about any aspect of the project. I was pleased with the timeline and pace of progress and, most importantly, completely satisfied and over the moon about the finished product. In fact, I liked them so much I hired them for another bathroom remodel. Hire them, you wonâ t regret it.

They also replaced kitchen cabinets, countertops and sinks, plus flooring in the kitchen, another bathroom and entire unit. Not only did they do a great job, but all work was as performed in a timely and professional manner. We have already referred them to a friend.

We hired Shawn to remodel our two bathrooms last fall (recommendation came from my husband's boss). He communicated in a timely manner to let us know what the next step was in our project. He was always patient and courteous when we had questions. He was flexible when we made a couple of changes to the original design plan. The bathrooms turned out great! When the time comes, we will use Coastal Design Remodeling for our kitchen.

I hired this construction team to demolish and completely rebuild a kitchen and bathroom. The team is exceptionally skilled, courteous, polite, works clean and above all keeps their promises. They return calls, meet deadlines and live up to their end of a staggered pricing schedule. Any modifications or extras were clearly discussed ahead of time and the project went without a hitch! I canâ t wait to use this group of professionals again. Iâ m the picky one in my circle of friends â that person who always gets asked for referrals! This is a definite 100% referral team.

Coastal Design Remodeling renovated our entire home, 4 baths, a kitchen, floors and tearing down walls. We absolutely felt that we were in good hands with CDR all along the way. My husband and I still talk about how grateful we are that we decided on Shawn and his team! Communication Shawn was an excellent communicator through the entire process, and kept us apprised on next steps throughout the entire process. He was available almost any time we needed to reach him over phone or text. It felt good knowing he was only a text away should problems arise. Cleanliness This was our first remodel, and we were told renovations were both stressful and very, very messy. So we prepared ourselves as we lived with our children amongst the demolition up to final reveal. The team did an excellent job mitigating and sequestering our family from the dust and debris by sectioning off their work areas and cleaning up/ vacuuming every day before they left. Quality of work The quality of the work is fantastic. Any issues we had with quality were handled promptly and appropriately, and there were very few if any surprises . We absolutely love the finished product and enjoy hosting people in our home again! Honesty The team of workers were very trustworthy and we felt comfortable going about our daily routine of work and kids while they were around. Shawn was an upright guy and collected fair payments along the way. There was no fear of him abandoning us, something I truly worried about when scouting contractors. I honestly couldn t imagine having gone with any other contractor for our remodel. This project couldn t have gone any smoother than it did and I am so grateful that we hired Shawn and his team for our entire house remodel!

We had 2 bathrooms to remodel, so after interviewing and receiving 5 quotes (we have been burned before from another company, so we were especially careful this time), we decided to go with CDS and we were glad we did! Shawn Murphy and his team did a great job with these projects, and completed both bathrooms in 4 1/2 weeks. Shawn is a wonderful communicator, and kept his team and us informed along the way. His team was very skilled and wanted to do the best job possible. They were courteous and I felt comfortable leaving my home while they worked. They also ended up repairing the mistakes from the previous company we had hired. Shawn has great expertise in this field, and was very prompt in getting back with us with any questions or comments we had. It is easy to tell that he values his team. He is professional, friendly and personable and has great attention to detail. He would inspect the work being done along the way, and did a thorough final walkthrough at the end. I would highly recommend CDS!

Told me it would be a 3 week job, and it took 5 months. Rarely on time, a lot of no call no shows for days of work. Workmanship was alright, despite issues with subcontractors. Final product was okay, and the carpenter that he used was excellent. He never wrote anything down, so I had concerns. Also, never did a final walk through with me, and so I was basically just done with it. His organizational skills were pretty weak.

Bought a fixer and had Shawn and his team remodeled the whole house, 4 bedrooms, 2 �� baths and a kitchen. There was drywall (refloating whole house), knocking down a wall, moving electric, all new doors and baseboards. The kitchen and 2 bathrooms were taken down to the studs and completely redone. I was very pleased with the bidding process and how Shawn communicated with me though out the job. He was always professional with me and gave me realistic timelines. He also had good places for me to go look at stone, chose cabinets, etc and gave me good advice and ideas when I was stumped. My house looks amazing and would recommend him.

Shawn Murphy with CDS designed and remodeled 3 baths and one kitchen for us. Shawn is amazing at keeping you calm and positive throughout the project and will make a very stressful event as fun as it can be. He is a great business owner and compared to other people in this business I don't think you can find a better run company than CDS. Shawn is very professional, hard working and honest. Whenever we ran into problems he made sure we knew that it was going to be taken care of and he truly cares about you being satisfied with the end result.

We had a complete kitchen overhaul, including removing walls, done by Shawn and his team. From the start he was engaged in our home and treated us better than just being his next customer. We started the project with a certain design in mind, and Shawn came in with ways to make it better that other contractors couldn't offer us when getting bids. At times it felt he was more excited about our house than we were. Coastal Design has the ability to turn the image in your head into a finished product even when you can't fully articulate what it is your envisioning. All of our concerns were taken care of and our expectations surpassed throughout the job. The result is an amazing kitchen that has everyone who walks in our home jealous. Shawn and Coastal Design Services absolutely get our strongest possible recommendation for your next project.

The project was a small one, with a few "bumps in the road" but the end result is good. The workers were courteous and hard-working and left the project neat each day. We would definitely recommend Shawn Murphy and CDS to others seeking remodel work.
