Get matched with top home builders in Edgewood, MD

"As with a lot of homeowners, we were scared stiff about starting a home remodeling project after all of the horror stories we had heard from friends. We were pushed off the edge by a master shower that stopped working and could not be repaired without tearing up the walls. We dove in after reading great reviews about VKB and totally lucked out by getting matched up with Calvin when we walked into the store. From start to finish this has been an amazing experience starting with the design phase, to demolition, construction, and final walk through. Calvin was perfect for us. He first asked us to collect pictures of bathrooms while he took meticulous measurements of our space. He then held our hands through what he called an “organic process” of designing our dream bath. What was really fantastic was when we had to choose tile, he walked us next door to the humongous tile store (where he was previously the store manager!) and smoothly guided us through one of the hardest choices to make with the perfect recommendations. The project was then handed to Al, the construction manager, and again we totally lucked out. I highly recommend this team of Calvin and Al. The construction phase went super smoothly. The workers are extremely clean and respectful. Everyday they lay down clean tarps and cover the carpet they are walking on with sticky plastic sheets. (We have white carpet upstairs and after they were done and a quick vacuum it is absolutely good as new!) Demo day was painless, no dumpster... just hand carried away in a truck. Construction happened pretty much daily from 8-4. We didn’t have to be home when the team was here and we felt absolutely comfortable leaving them home unsupervised. I am an orthopedic surgeon so I’m very precise about measurements. Each night I would sneak into the bathroom and measure everything, and I’m telling you all of the measurements were spot on! Also of note, they taped up two plastic sheet barrier walls between the master bedroom and bath which left the bedroom perfectly clean and livable with zero dust. We slept in our own master bed during the whole master bath remodel. In the end the project took one week longer than expected (this happened over Xmas holiday) and right on budget with no HGTV surprises. Al kept in close touch throughout the project and would text back immediately whenever we texted him with a question. Jose was also incredible during the entire remodel. We absolutely love our new bathroom and we honestly can’t think of any choice that we would change looking back. After this fantastic experience we are already planning our kitchen remodel with VKB next year. I will absolutely insist on my same team of Calvin, Al, and Jose. I have no fear of my next remodeling project"

"Howard Shires From American Home Contractors came out to my house today and repaired my roof. He arrived on time and did a great job. I would highly recommend Howard to anyone needing roofing work."

"I hired Romeo's Home Solutions to demolish an old wood shed and erect a metal shed. They arrived on time and began to work immediately. It turned out I ordered the wrong size shed. Romeo's crew went above and beyond to dig a larger foundation for the new shed. I highly recommend their services."

"After meeting with numerous contractors in January 2020; we choose to work with Persky Custom Builders and the owner Josh Persky. They did a fantastic job remodeling my parent's dated kitchen on budget and in the timeframe promised. The whole project start to finish went well and my Mom is thrilled with her new kitchen. I am very impressed with the workmanship, attention to detail, and care put into the job by Josh and crew. When minor hiccups came up, Josh was always calm, candid, addressed issues quickly, even going above and beyond what was required. It was such a pleasure; we'll definitely work with Persky Builders on future projects. If you are looking to improve your home, look no further than Persky Custom Builders"

"Due to a previous job running longer than planned, our 3-day job had to be rescheduled.  As it turned out, that was more convenient for us, anyway.  I only mention it to remind folks that this sort of thing can happen.

The first day, they sucked out the old insulation.  That seemed to go pretty well, but I did notice that several pockets of the old stuff were left in place, here and there.  Maybe it could have been done a bit better.

Day 2 was foam sealing of the tops and bottoms of the walls.  This was done by a subcontractor, who arrived saying that they didn't understand the job they were supposed to do.  A call to AC&R resulted in a visit from their "Foam Superintendent" within an hour and everything was straightened out.  Since there is a fair amount of set-up time for the foaming operation, no time was lost in waiting for the superintendent.  The difficulty was chalked up to a difference in terminology between the two companies.  Presumably, they now speak the same language.

Day 3 was blowing in the new insulation, along with the installation of some contraptions between the rafters to allow the eave vents to continue to breathe through all the fluff, and some batt-style insulation over all the catwalk areas in the attic.

Each day, when they left, the place was relatively clean, except for a few bits of insulation fluff in the hallway, under the attic access hatch.  No real problem, there.

We've only had one night with our new insulation, but the house does seem more comfortable.  This operation took us from having about 3-4 inches of matted 70-year-old mineral wool to 19 inches of nice new fluffy fiberglass.  We are expecting a significant decrease in climate control costs, along with increased comfort."

"Excellent! Beautiful home improvement and these guys did it right!"

"Ron our site manager responded quickly to any questions or concerns we had about the project. Chris, who did the majority of the work was very professional and considerate. He was on time every morning and if he wasn't coming out that day he called to let us know. We have not had any issues with the work that was done and are very happy with the addition. We would definitely use Coastal Builders again.

"I wasn’t rushing into my home purchase and David was patient during the two years it took to land my home. I wasn’t sure what I wanted at the outset and David encouraged me to see a variety of property types and conditions. That helped hone in on what I wanted and we submitted a couple of offers  along the way. The whole experience informed me of what was important to me and emphasized the need to act fast. So when a home I really liked went on the market just as I was headed out of town, David and I developed a strategy to make sure I didn’t lose out. Six months later and I still smile and think how much I love my new home every time I open the front door. (And I have great neighbors, too.) On top of his real estate expertise and familiarity with the area, David also leverages the technology to complete a contract quickly online. He took the time to answer every question and really walked me through the home-buying process."
