"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."
"Roger and his team were excellent. Very responsive and professional. I was amazed at their collective skills in tackling some challenging aspects of our remodel. They were a joy to work with. Very pleased with the finished product."
"After having a disastrous master bathroom remodel where the subcontractor had botched the job, I was faced with finding a company that can fix it. The job was done so poorly that it had to be redone. Naturally I was quite skeptical after this ordeal.. When I contacted Expert Home Builders, Owner came out and assured me that they could complete my master bath to my standards (I am very picky) and it would be done in a very timely manner. Their tile man and painter did exquisite work. After the glass shower, vanity, and tub were installed, I was extremely happy with the results. And you will too if you choose to use them. They offer first rate quality on their remodeling services. I recommendation them without any hesitation."
"We recently remodeled our kitchen and we are very happy with what Ezra from Landmark Construction was able to delivered! The first thing we liked about this company is not only the gret estimate but he also did amazing 3D rendering of our new kitchen! This kitchen remodeling atarts by trying to get few quotes around town from several contractors, and than to compare them as much as we could in order to get a normal picture of the prices. Ezra was able to beat them all! He gave us a very detailed plan on what they were working and they got it done right, within 1 month. At our house, Charlie was the supervisor and he is definitely the best! He kept us posted with things happening during the project. We do recommend them for construction projects! "
"Purchased coupon on August 11, 2011. Because I was remodeling my kitchen myself after work and weekends, I didn't have time to deal with the creating the room drafts, plans, layouts or measurements she required. I did contact Jill and explain the situation and she was very understanding. She said because I contacted her, not to worry about the deadline. I remained in contact with her over the next few years (that's how long it took me) and when I was ready around the start of 2014, she worked hard to provide her new design. A true professional and great person to work with. The design was spot on and my wife and i were very impressed. Thank you Jill. "
"They were thorough when doing the smoke and soot cleaning in my kitchen after an incident. They even got rid of the lingering burning smell which had filled the whole place."
"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."
"The kitchen remodel with Ocean Seven Builders went smoother than we thought it would. Ron stayed involved throughout the process and kept us updated on progress. The quality of the cabinets and flooring is excellent, and the installation looks very precise. Overall, it was a solid experience with a good end result!"
Kitchen and Bathroom Remodel questions, answered by experts
How long it takes to remodel a bathroom yourself depends on the size of the bathroom, the scope of the project, your skill levels, and how much free time you have. If all you’re doing is giving the room a fresh coat of paint, you can be done and dusted in a couple of days. A large DIY bathroom remodel takes two weeks to a month.
Experts use innovative designs and techniques to maximize your space, creating the illusion of size while enhancing functionality.
Traditional style is inspired by designs commonly used in 17th and 18th century Europe. It often uses natural materials and colors, such as wood, copper, navy blue, bronze, and stone, intricate detailing, and heavy, thick fixtures. On the other hand, contemporary design tends to use sleek and angled lines, lighter fixtures, and chic, modern colors like matte black or brushed gold. Transitional design takes elements of both, often using neutral color palates with dark-hued accent pieces, soft lines, and a comfortable but not overly elegant overall feel.
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.
Depending on its size and the quality of the installation, a floating vanity can hold up to 220 pounds. The total weight it holds includes the countertop, sink, and anyone resting on the vanity as they wash their face or brush their teeth. Be sure to talk with your contractor and check the manufacturer’s specifications to determine how much weight your vanity can take.
