Quality First Builders Inc

Description of Work: They say the best thing to do is to buy the worst house in the best neighborhood you can find and remodel it. Which is true, and exactly what we did. But as first time homebuyers, and first time home remodelers, we were very nervous about taking on a full house remodel which is incredibly daunting and ultimately depends on the quality of the general contractor. Horror stories abound about contractors lying to their clients, going over budget, blowing past deadlines, and taking advantage of people who have very limited knowledge of construction related issues and norms. Thankfully, we found Eli at Quality First Builders, as well as his wife Donna from Moderna Design. Eli explained all the details to us up front in a series of collaborative meetings, helped us understand the things we were ignorant of, and worked with us to tailor our wants and needs to our budget. Although his bid was slightly higher than some others we solicited, the extra cost was more than made up for in the higher quality of the craftsmanship, the detailed work orders, the rigid adherence to our timeline, thorough documentation of the work and inspections, the willingness to educate us and answer our questions, and the fact that included in the price is the expertise of his wife Donna who sourced all of our finishes, appliances, paint and floor colors, tile, and fixtures. Her participation was critical in keeping us on time and handling all the details that would have taken us forever to figure out on our own. (And, she is a total sweetheart.) Eli and his team, including Walter and Wilder at the job site, Maryssa in the office, and all the subcontractors, took on a huge project and delivered the house of our dreams, on time and on budget. A complete, down to the studs, gut and remodel of a kitchen, laundry room, and two bathrooms, with a new roof, new windows and doors, new plumbing and sewer line, new electrical, foundation repair, stucco and exterior paint, interior paint, new air conditioning and heater, and on and on and on. Plus Eli recommended many things to us which we never would have thought of like under cabinet lighting in the kitchen, semi-custom cabinetry to give our kitchen the total custom look, recessed lighting throughout the house with dimmers, a tankless water heater, and a reorganization of our master bath to maximize its usefulness. As with any project this large, there were some difficult decisions, unexpected hiccups, and setbacks along the way. Eli handled everything we, and the house, threw at him with honesty, professionalism, and a can-do attitude that put us at ease. The day we moved in was a dream come true and every day in the house since has been a blessing. The pictures speak for themselves. We couldn’t be happier … and his wife Donna is amazing
