Finest Kitchens By Design

I'm very pleased with both the projects that he performed for me.  He was reasonably priced.  The quality of the work was outstanding, and his skills and knowledge were diverse.

I really liked their willingness to work with what we had. They tried to keep the cost down. I thought that they were very honest. A few weeks ago I recommended them to a family member who had a roof problem.

Their communication was good. The estimate was appropriate and the pricing seemed very reasonable. We felt that we got detailed information from him. He worked carefully and did quality work.

This was a relatively small roof job so several of the roofers we talked to were not interested, as it's generally not profitable to do repair work like this. Dennis did not treat us like we were wasting his time - he was courteous, professional, and very helpful. He stuck to his estimate even when the work was more entailed than he anticipated. We were 100% satisfied with his workmanship and service.

Dennis, the owner, was very nice to deal with and I think he is very knowledgeable. It did take awhile for him to get back to me for the follow up. He did call and apologized for the inconvenience.

We were pleased. We had another bid, but this company had more explanation of what was going on with our problem and answered had more suggestions on how to fix it. We were very pleased and there was minimum mess. They also had it done quickly. They also give us a very reasonable price.

It went well

Dennis came to my residence to inspect my roof and siding for a water leak. He spent about an hour on the ladder and on the roof investigating the problem. Although he was unable to identify any particular issue with the roof or siding, he caulked one potential problem area and suggested that I have someone come out with an infrared camera if the issue recurs. His advice was consistent with advice that I later received from the company that installed my roof. Dennis took significant time to drive to my house and inspect my roof, and he didn't even charge me for his time. I would characterize Dennis as an honest, competent service professional and would definitely recommend his services to others.

I can?t say enough good things about Dennis. Our kitchen remodel was a challenge from the beginning?both in terms of cost and space. We wanted to keep it to $30,000 (excluding new appliances) and it?s a small kitchen?11? x 11? with two large windows and two doorways, plus an entryway with doors leading to the basement and to a small closet. Not a lot of available wall space to work with. But Dennis made it work. Even though we were doubtful that it could be done, he recessed our refrigerator against the old sink wall, and moved the sink area to under the windows. He got us a great deal on custom maple cabinets, and got rid of the old radiator (which was originally under the windows) by switching us to toe-kick heating. He worked very hard to keep us within our budget and still give us what we wanted?beautiful cabinets, granite countertops and Marmoleum flooring. And we were able to splurge on all new stainless steel appliances. He also managed to complete the project in a reasonable amount of time (5 weeks), with minimal down time, even though we had to delay the start date due to a family emergency. We are very, very happy with our new kitchen and recommend Dennis without reservations. He really knows his stuff and will let you know if something will or will not work and what the cost will be upfront.

Our first meeting was in September to discuss the project. Dennis had good ideas and we liked him. He was not pushy and listened to our wants. His cost estimate was not the lowest, but we liked his commitment to quality and to a time schedule. He would not start until all the components were in-hand. We did not have a designer, but worked with a designer for the cabinets and another for the floor and backsplash tile. Dennis has a small crew of good workers. The estimate was for six weeks to complete the job. He started in early March. A few delays caused only one additional week of work. Dennis kept the work site very clean. We are pleased with our new kitchen.

Dennis repaired the roof on our new (old) home. He inspected it, brought by samples for us to examine, and helped us pick out what would look best on our home. The work started on Wednesday and was fnished on Thursday, as projected. The crew was courteous, efficient, and detailed. Dennis came to the work site both days to oversee and manage the project. (While he was checking out the progress on our home, our neighbor asked if he could help with a minor problem on his roof. Dennis fixed the problem with the crew that was working on our house, without interfering with the work in progress.) We would HIGHLY recommend Eminence Roofing for any roofing project! Call them at 952-594-0591.

They discovered there was a bigger problem and recommended someone else to us. He called back promptly and was very honest about what he found and even takes pictures. He will come in and show you what he has found and that was very helpful, especially when it is on the roof and you can?t go up and see it.

We were impressed with the reviews for Finest Kitchens by Design on Angie?s List, so we decided to give them the first call. Dennis promptly called back and was friendly and courteous. When he came to our home, he brought with him his licenses, association memberships and before and after pictures. This put us at ease; we knew we were dealing with a professional. It was clear that yes, he redesigns kitchens, and he in fact does it well. Here?s the rub ? we didn?t want a multi-thousand dollar renovation. We only wanted someone to cut into our cabinetry and do the electrical work and refinishing necessary to allow us to put an aftermarket freestanding range where a cabinet and counter cook top used to be. Dennis jumped into this comparatively small job for him with both feet. He answered our questions, gave us an estimate and came to do the job on our requested day, the day before the range was delivered. What impressed me most was that, despite the fact that this job was probably small potatoes compared to what he normally does, he still demonstrated a can-do attitude, professional demeanor and attention to detail. Specifically, he arrived on time, arranged for the appropriate contractors to do their work, and finished ahead of schedule. He also did the job for less than I expected. He never made us feel that our ?drop in the bucket? job was unimportant. If Dennis puts this much time, effort and attention to detail into such a small job, I have no doubt that he?s the man to trust when we need a bigger job. Give him a call ? you won?t regret it.

I am very please with their work and it went on very well. Their price was good and they got the work done in one day. They worked during the rain.

Dennis came over right away. He studied the roof around the chimney for awhile and determined that the leak was due to cement crack. He chalked the cracks and left for the chalking to dry. He came back a week later with a long water hose and sprayed around the chimney for 15 minutes to ensure the leak was fixed. He charged me only $20. Dennis is soft spoken, courteous, and knowledgeable. It is a pleasure to work with him.

This was probably the best experience I have ever had with a contractor. They finished the project on time and the workmanship was superior. The owner made a couple of suggestions about adding copper, and then went out of his way to use it as efficiently as possible to keep my cost down. The project was finished just before Thanksgiving, and the owner himself came on the morning of Thanksgiving to make sure that everything was cleaned up and finished.

I contacted Dennis at Eminence Roofing in early summer, and he gave us an estimate to replace multiple roof levels on our 6000+ square foot house damaged by the May 31, 2008 storm. Considering the amount of roof we have, I felt his estimate was accurate. Dennis had to be patient with us, as we had multiple contractors doing work for us, and he was forced to wait until October because the painting by another company took much longer than expected. When we finally were free and clear for the roofing job, Dennis sent his crew within a few days and completed the project in several days. He advised us on improving our attic ventilation and I think we have a much better roof now. His crew cleaned up very well. I would definitely recommend Dennis and Eminence Roofing because of the quality of the work, and because Dennis is really easy to work with.

It went very well. Materials delivered day before. Everyone arrived really early on day of job including Dennis who was the first to arrive and the job was mostly completed by the time I got home from work. Everything cleaned up and the roof looks great. Have gotten compliments. Great operation. I am very well pleased and will recommend Dennis to others.

Great! Emminence Roofing was recommended to me by another roofer on Angie's List (who wasn't accepting any more roofing jobs for the rest of the year due to already scheduled work). Dennis inspected the roof, gave me an estimate, then I spent two weeks waiting for the insurance company. When I finally heard back from the insurance company, Dennis managed to fit me in (because it was a small job) between a couple of other jobs just a couple of days later. The crew arrived promptly and did a fantastic job. And when they cleaned up afterwards, it was better than when they arrived! I would definitely call Emminence Roofing again if I needed another roof job - I got a quality job for a good price.

Dennis did a wonderful job! He is through and complete and NEAT. Great high standards, very ethical, and very knowledgeable in his field. The first week or so was on demo. The old ceiling tile had a lot of nails that had to be removed bit by bit. Then there was the flooring to be taken up, after that the drilling (for the drain tile) and the sump pump installation. The egress window was dug and the new window was put in, along with 3 other windows (not egress). The walls were better insulated and, the recessed lighting was hung. the plumber spent days moving the existing line (major job), and the gas fireplace was installed. The Sheetrock, paint, trim, the fireplace and the floor work. WOW!!!! A beautiful job well done.

Dennis and the crew got started and completed the job in a timely fashion with a professional and very good quality job.

Dennis worked with me in getting this project done. Very professional and taught me a few things. I will be giving Dennis a call in the future.

Overall the project was a breeze. Dennis' crew worked very hard and did an excellent job of cleaning up. I was amazed at their ability of roofing on my 10/12 pitched roof. They were very safety conscious but completed the work in short order which surprised me considering how much there was to do. Dennis kept me well informed of the details and progress of the work. Very personable.

I can highly recommend Dennis with Eminence Roofing. I have never worked with anyone that cares so much about the job being done right. Excellant service and integrity in what he does.

Dennis was extremely helpful! From the first time he came for the estimate to the final visit he was great to work with. His knowledge base on so many different aspects of the job was excellent. He always responded to us in a timely fashion and very helpful for any type of question. The kitchen looks great and is just want we wanted. He is able to taylor the job to our request and budget constraints. We highly recommend this company to anyone and plan to contact again for future work!
