Our remodeling projects were significant and complicated: a full basement that was in shambles (partially-finished with a haphazard layout) and an upstairs hall bath that was outdated and suffering from plumbing issues. To put it bluntly, we had no idea what to do with these two problem spaces and no sense of where to start. We solicited ideas and estimates from multiple builders and remodelers, and the best response, by far, came from Matt and Redbird Remodeling. Some of the qualities that make Matt an outstanding contractor: always personable, deeply knowledgeable and experienced, quick to respond to questions or concerns, and highly professional. He has well-established relationships with range of suppliers and other contractors, and, based on our observations, they respect him and enjoy working with him. Weâ ve undertaken a half-dozen remodeling projects over the years, but weâ ve never encountered anyone with Mattâ s particular combination of abilities and qualities. He can formulate a vision for a space, communicate each step of the process in easy-to-understand terms, and then carry everything to completionâ in a timely fashion and while staying on budget. No exaggeration: that was our experience with Redbird. We were especially impressed by (and grateful for) Mattâ s flexibility and willingness to respond to our queries and worries as each project unfolded. He articulated his sense of what each space could be while remaining open to modifications and changes along the way, whether structural, aesthetic, or both. Matt listened to our vague ideas and desires, shaped them into coherent remodeling plans, and then, in what felt very much like a collaboration, produced spaces that are functional, beautiful, and add significant value to our home. The only drawbacks we encountered during our projects involved some damaged materialsâ issues that perhaps could have been identified earlier in the process--but, when those problems occurred, Matt responded immediately to remedy them (in one case driving several hours to locate replacements for fixtures that had been discontinued). We also want to emphasize that Matt hires great people and trains them well. He was on site himself and working with them most days, and, on the occasions when he couldnâ t be there, his guys handled everything smoothly. Moreover, they made sure to clean up the work spaces at the end of every day and check in with us before leaving. Everyone from Redbird was courteous, on time, and very respectful of our family life (they even became friends with our two cats!). Our daughters never felt like their lives were disrupted, and we rarely had to alter our daily routines. Bottom line: from start to finish, Redbird Remodeling did a fantastic job. They turned an odd-shaped, largely non-functional basement into a fabulous living area with tons of storage, a full bathroom, and a new laundry room--and they gave us a gorgeous upstairs hall bath that our daughters love. We wholeheartedly recommend Redbird and definitely will work with them again for future remodeling projects.
