"We chose VKB to do our complete gut master bathroom renovation and were so happy with their work in terms of reliability, craftsmanship, and customer service that we hired them to renovate our hall bathroom as well. For both bathrooms we worked with Calvin as our designer and Jason as our project manager, and both of them went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy with the design, that the project ran smoothly and on time, and that the final product was exactly what we wanted. We wouldn't hesitate to use VKB again if we need any other work done on our home, and we have already begun recommending them to family and friends and will continue to do so. We are very pleased with our experience with VKB!"

"although weather slowed down progress we were always informed every step of the construction. Kenny was active in ensuring the job went according to plan. highly recommend them as I have hired them again for a smaller project."

"Debbie, the AC&R salesperson, was very knowledgeable and confident. They were the 2nd quote I got for work and came in even lower than I expected (which gave me pause as a low bid is a red flag). But true to her word, they did the work professionally (mostly...see below) and promptly. While I had another company do the energy audit for the Pepco rebate, AC&R took over the work, did the blown fiberglass one day and the spray foam the next.



For the blown fiberglass in the attics above our additions, they added spray foam (from a can) around any gaps per the contract and foam board baffles at the soffits. The installer noted that all our soffits were blocked and the batting insulation was too wide for the rafter channels, so he leveled it out as best he could to ensure an even coating of blown insulation. At the end, he sealed up the gaps between the attic and our to-be-finished upstairs (cape cod style, so all one room).



For the spray foam insulation, the team came in the next day, and I had to be out of the house due to fumes. I did come back around noon as they expected to be done well before then. They didn't know I came in and I went to the back of the house to watch TV on my work break. The one annoyance was during their cleanup, one of the installers came down into our kitchen and then saw me. He said he was looking for a vacuum cleaner to clean the stairs. I told him don't worry about the carpet as it was getting pulled up, but this was the one piece of unprofessionalism I noted above. Contractors should NEVER use the homeowner's property; they should bring their own tools, including vacuums!



While the spray foam can get very messy, they kept the splatter mostly contained to inside the crawlspace, not the finished flooring. However, I was surprised that they didn't tape off the outlet covers or light switched. since the particles are so small, we're going to have to replace the switches/receptacles at our cost. Also, there was a storm door screen that wasn't covered and now needs cleaned. Basically, I think they should have taken more care in covering the very few items we left upstairs and the outlets/switches.



They didn't spray around the window frames (large gaps where window weights used to be) because the open cell foam would expand too much. If I wasn't there, I think they would have just left, but it was clear in our contract discussions they needed to insulate those spaces too. They used a few cans of "Good Stuff" equivalent, but didn't fill in the gaps entirely. It did the job well enough, but it's a ding against them as I expected more preparation.



Lastly, I thought that AC&R would walk me through all the scheduling and final "test out" (for the Pepco rebate), but I had to contact them and schedule with someone different each time. They were always prompt, but I expect the experts to know to do this for/with me rather than expect me to know the process. I go through it once in a lifetime while they do it weekly.



While the end of the review sounds more negative than positive, I would definitely recommend AC&R out to others as they're priced right, they have been in business for over a century, and like any contractor, you just need to follow up to be sure everything is done to your satisfaction.

I recently had water damage to the kitchen in my condo in Alexandria, Va which required a complete kitchen model.  Since I?m an absentee owner, unfamiliar with the area and© was under a lot of time constraints, my situation was extremely stressful.  I went through two unreliable contractors before being given an advertisement on Atlantis Home Improvement.  I called this company and spoke to its president , Bayram Gulsen and within four hours, he met with me at the condo. He surveyed my damage and even opened his showroom on a Sunday afternoon for me.  I was very impressed  with his sensitivity to the urgency of my situation. He was professional and knowledgeable, made me feel that I could trust him to do a top notch job.  Within the time frame he gave me for the completion of the job, my beautiful kitchen remodel was complete.  Please see the pictures I?ve attached which I?m sure will not give it justice.  I simply love it.

I am so pleased with this company.  The customer service was top notch-------couldn?t have asked for better.  They were totally reliable, showed up when they said they would and kept me informed throughout the process. A company is only as good as its employees.  These employees worked very hard.  I have never seen anything like it. They were professional in every way, giving attention to detail and exhibiting pride in every aspect of the job.  I am so impressed with this company and I highly recommend them.

"Great! Everything went as scheduled they provided excellent customer service and great quality of work. Would highly recommend Blue World as they are affordable and know what they're doing!"

"It went better than expected, but customer service is still a concern. The owner didn't even call us upon completion to thank us for the buisness."
