Remodeling as it should be. Ted and Tony have one vision in mind; a customer focused, hands-on approach to home remodeling. From the early stages of a concept to the final details of construction, our goal is to create a positive experience. We understand that no two customers are exactly alike, so we take the time to create solutions that appeal to your personal tastes and fit your budget. We offer two basic approaches to bathroom remodeling – Semi Custom and Client Inspired designs. Check out our website for further information.

"Look no further than Verity Build if you want a beautiful kitchen remodel. Verity just completed our kitchen remodel and we couldn’t be more pleased working with this company. The owners Ted & Tony are exceptional to work with. Ted designed our kitchen and came up with many wonderful ways to effectively use our space. He is patient and listens carefully to what you want, making excellent suggestions along the way. He accompanied us while we shopped to choose the appliances needed as well as the tile, backsplash & countertops. His 3D renderings showed us exactly what the new kitchen would look like, being able to move & change cabinets to look and work best. When the project started, Tony was onsite to make sure it happened according to the plan. Tony closely monitored the crew and kept in great communication with us throughout the process. The Verity crew is topnotch and does high quality work while always being professional, courteous and friendly. The worksite was kept organized and cleaned up each day for the next phase. The project was completed on time and Ted, Tony, and office manager Jennifer were readily available to answer questions and follow-up on any detail that needed attention. We look forward to working with the Verity crew again when we are ready to move forward on our bathroom remodels."

We are general contractors, but we also provide the following services: roofing, room additions, kitchen remodeling, bathroom remodeling, windows and doors and so much more.

"Buyer beware!!! I have never had such a nightmare with this company. Save your money and your sanity. They installed a patio cover for me. It leaked immediately. This was two years ago. For the past two years, they have been out at least 7 or 8 times claiming to "fix" the leaks. The leaks were not normal patio leaks by the way. The leaking has cause 3 of the 4 lights installed in the patio to fail. Every time they come, it's never fixed. The leaks keep getting worse. They never follow up with me, I always have to call them. They do not manage their sub contractors at all. This latest round started just before Christmas 2021, it's now been three months, four visits later. They took flashing off, said they were going to let it dry out and put it back. I didn't hear from them for two weeks, I noticed rain on the weather , I called Trig who had to send them back out to put the flashing back on. They sent some guy to do some more drastic sealing or something on my roof, they claimed it was done.....see attached photos of how they left my roof claiming it was done. Also, never followed back up with me on a light they need to replace which is still burned out and filled with water from rains. Save yourself the headache please!!! This still isn't resolved. I have filed a BBB compliant to try and help me resolve."

Every hiccup, bump and oversight were handled without drama. Nathan knows his business and as he told me one day, "You just plan for there to be problems and you handle it, happens on every project." We could not be happier with the job, would highly recommend!"

We embrace the uniqueness of each development and we call our projects complete when each of your needs and wants are fulfilled.

"5++ stars! My home's exterior was cracking due to a poor job prior and drainage issues. Tom and Adam and the team not only gave me peace of mind moving forward with drainage, put in gutters, and re-did the entire exterior of my home (stained wood and stucco), but made it beyond beautiful!! They were communicative, timely, so easy to work with, and the end product is gorgeous. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a construction project done and can't wait to use them again on my next project!!"

SB Construction & Remodeling is a leading company in the industry of home renovation and construction services. We offer our customers the best of renovation and construction services. We provide a range of construction services varying from kitchen, bathroom, and roof remodeling as well as other related works like painting, ceilings, doors and windows installation among others; handling your full renovation from start to finish!

"I have continually asked SB Construction to stop posting pictures of my home for advertising purposes, and they refuse to do so. This is why I feel the need to share my experience… the pictures they post do not reflect the quality of their work. There are multiple problems the contractor committed to fixing, and while blatantly ignoring my texts, he continues to post. It’s tacky and unprofessional. The dishonesty in saying this was a full home remodel is also incredibly frustrating. This remodel was supposed to be for my entire home. We agreed to start on the top floor with a 6 week time frame and then move onto the second floor. Well that 6 week time period turned into an entire year and I refused to move forward with this company for the remainder of my home. It was a horrific experience and the aftermath of the low quality work continues to haunt me a year and a half later. I have had to fix multiple issues and have spent thousands redoing their subpar work… yet the company continues to post the pictures. The pictures you cannot see are the walls left opened underneath the sinks… the leaks from the brand new sliding doors after every single rain… the damaged baseboards and flooring (both brand new) because of the nonstop leaks… the freshly painted walls bubbling up because the painters did not use the proper primer… the electrical issues that required walls to be reopened to assure that the live wires were no longer a safety concern… the dents and chips over all of my “custom wood cabinets and niche” that turned out to be MDF and not wood (as discussed). The list goes on and on. So many lies and so many mistakes turned this 6 week project into an entire year of frustration and lost money. There was also a constant turnover of subcontractors. To cover up that they had actually quit, the contractor would blame me. I maintained relationships with several of them who have helped me with my issues post remodel now that they are no longer working with Ron and his team. The original carpenter let me know that Ron specifically asked him to use the cheapest material and that is why they went with MDF vs wood. The carpenter that replaced him also told me Ron asked him to do the same. The subcontractors constantly complained about the lack of communication and would bad mouth the team whenever they were in my home. Because of the constant turnover due to the subs always quitting… because of the lack of attention to detail due to working on too many projects at once… because of the dishonesty and low quality work that was a constant theme throughout the project, I would feel guilty not sharing my honest feedback. When I saw someone else recently experienced the same nightmare, I felt bad for not sharing my experience sooner. If this review just helps one person not go through what I had to go through, then I feel obligated to share an authentic review."

Bathtub Restoration questions, answered by experts

You can use other ways to seal the space where your tub and the bathroom tile meet. Using sealant tape, epoxy sealer, and spray foam can be just as effective as caulking your bathtub. When using alternatives to caulk, the one that is best for you depends on your preferences. 

Sealant tape takes less time and effort to use, which is why some homeowners prefer it. Meanwhile, epoxy sealer creates a smooth and glossy finish that can complement your bathroom. Lastly, spray foam is waterproof and can act as insulation for your tub.

When it comes to cleaning bathrooms, bleach usually comes to mind. But like ammonia, bleach can damage acrylic tubs. In fact, many tub manufacturers warn against using bleach on acrylic bathtubs, and doing so could void the warranty on your tub. Again, a gentler cleaner specifically made for acrylic tubs, or one of the homemade methods listed above, is your better bet here.

For a standard-sized bathtub with minor damage, it takes approximately 3 to 5 hours to refinish. It might take a bit longer if your bathtub refinishing contractor needs to fill in significant cracks or gouges. This is the same if you have a specialty tub, like an oversized bathtub—you can expect your pro to take a bit on the longer side.

Acrylic bathtubs can last up to 30 years without major issues if they receive the right care and maintenance. They can last even longer but might scratch or stain as they age. The expected longevity is a major factor when investing in a new tub. Cast-iron tubs are the longest-lasting option.

Refinished bathtubs typically need to be refinished every five years or so. Frequent cleaning and use will break down the finish and make cracks and chips appear more readily. Cracks and chips tend to grow once they begin unless they are repaired immediately. Ideally, you should refinish your bathtub before it gets old enough that refinishing isn’t worth the hassle.
