Avery Construction Design Consulting INC

Waste of time. Came for a bid/review. Gave an estimate, called a "rough draft" estimate, then a "letter of intent". Wasted my time for 3 weeks! Look into them, They ate not what they seem. They are a cell phone and a POB!

Avery construction just completed a kitchen remodeling for me. I am more than thrilled with it. They were very easy to deal with and completed my project when they said they would. I would recommend them to anyone.

Generally very well, we got what we asked for and the pricing was very transparent (and fair). We worked with Rob Olson on budget and pricing, and Alex and Jason oversaw the work. Since we were not living in the condo and not under a time constraint, that made things easier. But we are very pleased with the end results!

After building our own home only subbing out the mechanical we were very apprehensive to hire any company for a total renovation of the kitchen and guest bath of a condo we are moving into. Avery Construction put our fears to rest beginning with the consultation by Rob Olson. The whole team was professional and truly takes a deep pride in their work. Yauny was simply amazing as the lead crewmember. Alex the PM kept communication flowing and site visits by the Production Manager and Construction Manager contributed to the trust we developed for Avery as the commitment of the company shows through all of the employees. Of course there were some bumps along the way as any project will encounter, but everything was resolved to our satisfaction.

Highly recommend Avery for any remodel project. They did our entire house and are very professional, thorough, and have highly skilled workers for every phase of the the project. They do not cut corners and go out of their way to make sure you are pleased with everything along the way. I also like that we asked them to come out since they finished to correct something we noticed and it was taken care of right away. They stand behind their work and want you to be happy with it. Avery was great from start to finish, even assisting with design and product selection. I can't say enough good about this company. If you want peace of mind and outstanding service go with this quality company for your remodel.

Took a little longer than planned but it was wonderful I would hire Avery Construction again

We just completed renovating our home on Clearwater Beach. We chose Avery Construction to complete this part of the renovation and are completely satisfied with our new kitchen. Easy to work with. There crews are efficient, fast, stay on the job, and can be completed trusted. We highly recommend Avery Construction. Grant & Kathy Trier Clearwater Beach, FL

Service was outstanding. The manager kept in touch with us every step of the project. Avery Construction has a program that gives estimates on the spot before the estimator leaves your residence. This is important to know what our budget is while the estimator is there instead of hearing back several days later and having to adjust the scope of the job. Avery also has it's own cabinet shop which I was allowed to inspect. Complete transparency. Highly recommended! I am so proud of my new kitchen!

Avery did a wonderful job on our kitchen remodel. Danita was so patient and guided us thru drawing up the design and patiently shopping with us for cabinetry color and granite, and gave me great tips on where to find sinks and hardware. The awesome crew showed up on time and I trusted them completely in my home. Alex oversaw the entire process down to every detail to make sure we got the kitchen we dreamed of. Our remodel included raising a drop ceiling and removing some walls, rerouting some electrical, and some minor replumbing. All contractors did a wonderful job and worked well together to complete the job. They went above and beyond to please us. My wine rack was reconfigured to my specific requests and the quality of work is amazing. The cabinetry is custom built, self close doors and deep drawers are wonderful, and the stain and finish is beautiful. They even came back to install my dishwasher that was backordered. They let us install our own backsplash so that we could find the perfect one when the job was finished, instead of insisting that it be done by them as part of the job. Very easy to work with. You definitely get what you pay for with Avery Construction. I highly recommend them for any remodeling and if I get around to it, I would certainly love to have them tackle my bathrooms!

We recently had our kitchen remodeled by Avery Construction. Nothing but positive things to say about the entire experience. The cabinet installers were meticulous with every detail. Very professional organization to do business with. Rob Olson was our original point of contact and he tried his best to accommodate all of our wishes. We truly love our kitchen and couldn’t be happier with the entire project. We highly recommend this business to anyone looking for top quality.

It's taken five months for me to "get over" the ordeal to post a review. I hired Avery specifically because of the other excellent reviews on Angie's List. My experience, unfortunately, was not consistent with those. At our first meeting, all of our discussion was about the entire Master suite - specifically including the floors in the master bedroom that were covered in carpet, but that we (Rob from Avery, included) hoped were hardwoods in good enough shape to refinish. Regarding the floors, we discussed that the crew would take a look to see if they were salvageable, and if not, would then get pricing for hardwood floors to match the rest of the house. We even discussed how we would change the direction of the boards to conceal any color mismatch if we couldn't perfectly match the existing floors. I had, in the past, tried to save money and do some things on my own - specifically, painting. When this project started, I was still in the doghouse for only ever getting 85% done on my last project...so we were quick to say we wanted Avery to do everything - including painting and any other detailed finish work. We received a quote in April 2016 for $24,250 - $31,300 + materials from Rob Olson. An adjustment of "a couple thousand dollars" was expected once we knew what needed to be done to the floors. We signed a contract on Sept 1 for $43,700 with work to begin in 6-8 weeks and finish within 8 weeks - possibly in time for Christmas. After several weeks, we began checking in to see if a firm schedule had been worked out. Each time we were told that the production meeting was Tuesday and that they would get back with us after the meeting to let us know. We didn't hear from them. We went through this cycle three times...still without knowing a start date. Having not heard from the company two days before we were leaving for a week long trip out of the country, I again checked in to see where we stood. As it turned out, the crew was scheduled to begin the next week. So there was a mad scramble to arrange for entry to the house and managing our dogs who would be in the house while we were gone...all while preparing for an international trip. Stressful and we're not even started. Work began the week of November 5. Almost immediately, we were informed that the subfloor would, unexpectedly, need to be replaced at an additional cost of $10,106. Remodels certainly come with their share of unexpected surprises...but I was flabbergasted that a professional contractor would not have done more due diligence on a nearly 100 year-old house. The area in question was within two feet of the access door under the house. It seemed obvious to me that no one had opened the access door to take a look at what clearly was an addition on top of an original back porch. No one should have been surprised that the floor may have issues and that it may need investigation to prepare the home owners for the possible complication and potential expense. We were just lucky that we could withstand a $10k surprise. - short marble - - surprised that, despite asking several times about the plan for the bedroom floors, that - trim work uncaulked and unpainted in closet - closet doors unpainted - windows in master bath were left unpainted with just the primer that came on the wood - Avery's response will be that some of the points in my review were not in the contract. That, in fact, is true. And I own the fact that it's my fault for trusting our salesperson, Rob, to make sure everything was sufficiently documented and communicated to the rest of the organization and for not ensuring that I completely understood what the contract had in detail. I have, however, had major remodel work completed on multiple houses and have never had such a soul-crushing, stressful, maddeningly frustrating and disappointing experience.

It was a fairly long process but they were up front with that

Avery Construction did a great job,they were professional,pleasant and the work was outstanding. We highly recommend them to anyone in need of a bathroom remodel.

A few challenges, but they made everything right and the final product is amazing.

When I contacted Avery they sent a designer to give estimate and design. She was able to design my small kitchen to be more functional. She helped me pick my granite, tile, and cabinet color. Avery handled pulling the permit and we started a few days earlier than planned. I really liked that Avery has their own crews and I had two managers to oversee the project. The tear out was dusty and they kept my home covered and protected.I had a very hard working, detailed and honest crew. I love my new kitchen and will be hiring Avery next year to do my bathroom.

The construction went smoothly. On the first day of demo Yoany noticed a beam that appeared to be weight bearing, so he called in the troops. An architect was secured to determine whether the beam was weight bearing, and, if so, how to work around it so the soffit could still be removed. That was the only glitch. While the architect was doing his job, Yoany worked on the flooring in my family room in order to keep the project moving.

First of all the good. Rob Olson is fantastic. He worked with me on every phase of design and planning. I can't say enough good things about Rob. He was very responsive and kept me constantly informed. Javier and his crew did the work. They were very professional and most of the work was top notch (more on this later). He and his crew ran up against quite a few issues with the structure of the place but dealt with all of them very well. Now the bad Once Rob handed over the job to the project manager, communication went downhill fast. Keith was officially the project manager but honestly it felt like everyone and no one at the same time was managing this. The right hand didn't seem to know what the left hand was doing. And I would go weeks without hearing anything. A couple of times work completely stopped and nobody told me why. I will say that when I emailed to find out what was going on, someone always responded quickly. Nobody was avoiding me, they just weren't proactive with communication. The floor was a huge issue. The slab wasn't even close to level. There were huge bowl-like indentations and the slab was about 3 inches lower on one side than the other. This caused a lot of issues and the tile ended up not being completely even. It looks fantastic but when you walk on it it is noticeable that not everything is flat. I really don't want to fault Avery much on this because it was an extremely challenging tile job. I'm sort of nitpicking here because everything else was perfect. The verdict Overall I would recommend them. I talked to Keith at length about the communication issues and he indicated a lot of that was growing pains. He informed me that since they started my job they have hired more project managers. The work they did was great and they fixed everything I pointed out for the punch list. My biggest endorsement, though, would be that they are honest and trustworthy. Even through all of the issues, they went out of their way to make everything right. This would be an easy A had it not been for the communication issues.

Rob Olsen was our designer and did a fantastic job. John and Gage were the workers on the job and were extremely punctual and professional. These three were the ones that made this job happen. The job started well, and I didn't expect perfection. I was understanding when there were several delays, including having to reorder 300 dollars worth of tile. Working with the "project manager" Keith, was enough to make me want to hire another company. He was unresponsive, didn't return calls and tried to communicate through text despite two separate meetings asking him to communicate verbally especially with setbacks that needed a lot of explanation. The job took five months, and yet I remained patient. The final straw was once the frameless shower was installed. It leaked a lot...I had to use a towel to clean it after every shower. Keith looked at it four times and then sent me an email telling me the job was 100% complete, the leak was acceptable and he wanted the final payment! thank goodness for Rob. I called him and immediately came to the house, agreed it was unacceptable and had it fixed the next day. Overall, the company did excellent work, but the aggravation of dealing with Keith ruined it for me. I had additional work that needed done, but I chose another company. The moral---Avery is a good company..Rob, John and Gage are phenomenal, but one unengaged person ruins the reputation.

We were told it would take 3 weeks. It ended up taking over 3 months. There were issues with the grout in the stone floor. They came back to repair it and used a different color grout. It now has 3 different colors with just cement in some spots. I have called and emailed with no response. where can I download pictures. How can I get this resolved?

I had 2 other companies come talk to me but it was easy to see from the beginning that Avery was the best. They gave me some initial pricing in writing on the very first visit. The second time that we met, they created 3D designs and a very detailed budget. The salesman was never pushy. I did my homework and called them back for a 3rd visit before I contracted them. They offered me many great places to visit where we were able to buy all of the necessary parts and they let me buy direct and take advantage of their contractor discounts. When the work was in progress, the crews were timely and neat. They swept each day. The managers, Keith and Dan, were very helpful with solving a few technical issues along the way. I'm happy to recommend them.

Avery Construction replaced everything in my living room. It was stripped down to bare walls & floors because of a mold issue. They had to remove my sliding glass doors & fix / replace everything. They also found that there was no insulation in my ceiling - so we ended up ripping that down too. He took out my hardwood floors (that were destroyed by the mold) and replaced it with tile - so they had to level the floor & prep it for the tile - then lay the tile for me. Their work was amazing & I was impressed with how clean they are! For so much work being done in that one room, I really didn't have much to clean up at all! We also had a leaking deck on my 2nd floor above the room with the mold. This was probably the cause of the mold - - - but they had to strip off the old deck & wrap around some kind of flooring that will make it so it won't leak in the future. While doing this, they had to remove my old railing (which was about to fall down anyway) - and replace the railing around my 2nd floor deck. We also had some minor other things that needed to be fixed according to my insurance company. I had just switched insurance companies - and after I signed on the dotted line, they came back to me with a laundry list of things that needed to be done in 2 weeks. Avery Construction was able to fit me in so that I was not cancelled by my insurance company. I am so thankful they were able to get it all done in the short time frame the insurance company gave me! This included a handrail be added to my deck that ran the length of my house - as well as a handrail being added to the steps of a storage shed because It has more than 3 steps up to it. Avery was able to make this all happen when other companies wouldn't have been able to get around to my job until a few weeks past my deadline. They also had to replace some of the T-11 (siding) around my house. My lawn guys had let the vines grow a little too much on my house. When we had that all removed (per the request of the insurance company) - we learned that some of the vines had somehow gotten behind the T-11 & were pushing it out from the house - causing it to decay & create a possible leak situation. Avery removed the damaged T-11 & replaced what was needed. I had full faith in their crew. Even gave them a key to my house & moved out while all of this was being done. It took almost 3 weeks for everything to be completed. I could have moved back in at the half way point - but I figured it was easier for them to work without me there. I'm usually very over protective of my house - always turing on the alarm when I get home & as I leave - but with Avery Construction, I felt I could trust them with everything & not have to worry about a thing. I feel so lucky to have found them - and to have them guiding me through this process that was not something I had planned to do right away. They were able to turn what should have been a negative experience - into a positive. I love my living room now - more than I did before! Laying the tile & painting the walls a color - totally opened up the room & I actually enjoy sitting in there more now than I did before. Everything happens for a reason - as long as you have the right people on your side. I feel very lucky to have had Avery Construction on my side & will for sure use them for other projects as well! :)

Very competent crew and management. It was refreshing to know that we did not have to be on site overseeing the project. Communication was excellent. I appreciated them trying to keep me on budget. I have recommended Avery Construction to others.

My husband and I purchased a new office for our law firm, but the office needed quite a bit of renovations. The building itself did not look like it had any work done since it was built in 1984. We wanted to update the place, but also wanted to make sure to keep a professional look. We had no idea where to even start with the project. I am so thankful we reached out to Avery Construction to help with the project. The entire team was incredibly professional. They worked quickly, and even worked through the holidays as they knew we were on a tight timeline to move in. We needed to raise the ceilings, install new flooring, update the bathrooms, and fix some previous drywall issues. By the time they finished the work, you couldn't even recognize our office. It looked completely brand new. Throughout the course of the project, the project manager kept in constant communication with me and was always available to answer any questions I had. Additionally, Jason Avery was able to make suggestions to keep our costs down and keep the project within budget. I would highly recommend Avery Construction to anyone needing a remodel or similar construction project. I'm already planning to hire them again to remodel the master bathroom in my house in the future.

This was my first experience having major renovations done to our home and we were very apprehensive after hearing so many contractor horror stories. We scheduled an appointment with Jason and he arrived on time and immediately put us at ease with his demeanor. He was the third contracting company we had gotten a quote from. He wasn't the cheapest but we felt most confident with him. This turned out to be the right decision. The gentlemen that did the work were Fariz (Speedy) and Nick. I couldn't be happier with the work they performed. They were on time everyday, polite, hard working, careful with our belongings, and left the house as clean and neat as possible everyday before they left. The new floors look amazing! As does the fireplace. The job took a bit longer than what was proposed but they were there everyday working on the project and I never felt abandoned. Not to mention, the quality of the work that was being performed was worth waiting a little longer. The project manager, Keith, was extraordinary as well. He would check in regularly to check on the progress and help answer any questions. The final product is just stunning. It looks like a totally different house now. So would I recommend these guys? Oh yeah. I'd hire them again in an instant.

Jason and his crew were wonderful to work with from the start. We are beyond happy with the kitchen renovation that was completed. Friends cannot believe just how different our house is with the new, open concept. From the design work, to construction, to follow up after completion of the job, top quality work and service. Highly recommend Avery.
