We were very pleased with the work that was completed and the craftsmanship that was put into the project. The team was professional, timely and courteous. Overall the entire construction period took about 4 weeks, which is what we were told to expect. The only surprise was coming in 25% over the initial budget, but we had elected some finish choices that were not originally part of the initial quote so we were anticipating the end number being higher.

I contacted Chris via Angies list and immediately had contact within 24 hours. Chris came to the house and measured everything and was able to give an estimate within 72 hours. I do have to say Chris's estimate was par with what we were expecting. He was more than willing to accommodate our needs and changes along the way. I do have to say Chris does listen. He knew our budget and made sure we were communicated with about going over or of ways he thought we could save money. Chris's brother, Steve was the lead project manager of our expansion. He did a great job communicating to me and my wife. They showed up on time everyday and made sure to communicate to me of when they would not be there as to not get in the way of others who need to work (i.e. dry waller, electrician, floor company). To comment on their dedication, Chris and Steve contracted a new flooring business to do our floor instillation. The floor went in great but the first staining was not up to par with matching appropriately as we had discussed early in the design phase. The flooring company was not impressed as well, and the owner came out and redid the floors and they are so much closer to the color of our older floors. So if you want something done right, contact Nemec Construction. They will not let you down.

What we liked about Chris from the start was that he listened to what we wanted.  After our initial conversation and inspection of the work area, Chris provided a drawing of the porch he planned to build.   When we wanted to do something differently, he listened and was accommodating.   Chris responded to our e-mails and phone calls in a timely manner and listened to and addressed our concerns.  Chris and his team have a great deal of experience.  They were friendly and worked well together.  They showed up on time, worked hard, and seemed to enjoy their work.

At initial contact I was told that the start date was indeterminate depending on scheduling and jobs were completed in order of received. While there was a delay on starting I was kept informed and it did proceed in an orderly and professional manner. A large crew showed up the first day or two to remove all the old siding and old deck over enclosure. The property was left neat and clean after each day and debris removed promptly and nothing left cluttered. After demo the crew was smaller but always showed up, worked diligently and professionally.  We are extremely happy with the the professional quality of the work. The job came in close to budget, there were small items that occurred and were changed but nothing extraordinary and no real surprises from what was expected. While there were contractors that offered lower estimates I wanted someone that had the capability of doing the entire job and had the staff and expertise to do the high level of quality I wanted done. Chris and  His staff did a excellent job were always professional and answered any questions and included me in decisions
. I would definitely use their services again and can recommend them without hesitation

I've purposely waited for six months to write this review as I wanted the opportunity to use my new kitchen and assess its form and function. I can say without hesitation that Nemec Construction has done exceptional work and delivered the kitchen of my dreams. Tamara Stillwell designed a space that is beautiful,functional and has exceptional storage.  She guided us into selecting cabinets, hardware and granite of exceptional quality.It is a true pleasure to cook in this beautiful new space.Working with Tamara was a joy.  She was always accessible to answer our questions and to manage whatever challenges came up during construction. She is a great asset to Nemec Construction. 
Chris Nemec and his crew were able to transform our vision for a light-filled space into a reality.  We love the way the new east windows in the dining room brings natural light into the entire downstairs.  Moving access to the laundry room to the hallway not only created more space in the kitchen layout, it also has made the laundry room more functional.I want to compliment the entire Nemec Construction crew, especially Steve Nemec for their professionalism and responsiveness throughout the renovation process. We have great confidence in the quality of their work.We knew that it would be a challenge living with three months of construction. We appreciate that the Nemec crew and subcontractors worked so efficiently and made sure that materials were organized and the work space cleaned at the end of each day.
I would definitely use Nemec Construction for future renovation projects in my home.  I recommend them without reservation.

He subbed the job out. I barely saw him. The subs did quality work.
Response from Nemec Construction, LLC
"[Member name removed], You did have me estimate that bath job, but chose another contractor. So, I did not do your job. You later called me about a fireplace repair and I gave you a number of someone who could help. I never sub-contracted or worked on your house. This could explain why you never saw me. I never completely sub out jobs. We only sub out electrical, plumbing, sheetrock and HVAC. The rest is taken car of by my company. Thanks anyway for the good grades!"

We were very pleased with the responsiveness of Nemec construction. The pergola was part of a backyard  landscaping project. The finished pergola was just what we wanted and is the centerpiece of the project. The project was completed in a timely manner and we are very pleased. It was a pleasure working with Chris and his crew.

It went beautifully.  I felt like I could leave the house and trust them while they were here.  I have never done that in the past with other service providers.  They watched the house and made sure it was locked when they left.  They cleaned up after themselves and did an outstanding job.  They even watched over my father if I ever needed them to.

The work and communication were excellent.  Chris challenged us with some additional design ideas that really improved the outcome, like suggesting that we relocate the added windows for the bedrooms to better capture the views.  We especially appreciated that he was willing to work with us on a time and materials basis, and that we had input on some of the subcontractors that were selected where we had a preference.   
We will definitely be calling Chris and his crew for our next major project!

We actually had to have them come back in and do some repairs, so it didn't go as well as we had hoped. Everything did get fixed, but we feel the quality of work was less than professional, and they left everything for us to clean up. We had to haul away all of their trash. The tile work was a mess, and the detail was sloppy, and some of the old caulking was left around the bathtub. They told us to just get some caulk and grout remover and take it off ourselves.

This was without question the best experience I have ever had with a contractor.  From beginning to end, Chris was professional, punctual, fair, diligent and cost-effective.  When something didn't go as planned (paint color didn't look the same on the wall as it did on the can) he fixed it immediately and didn't pass on the cost to me like other contractors might have done.  Most importantly his workmanship was impeccable - he and his team transformed my dingy basement into a beautiful home office where I am now happily sitting by the fire writing this review.  Chris is also just a really nice guy and super easy to work with.   If you are looking for high quality work, delivered on time, and at a reasonable price, I would highly recommend Nemec Construction.

Our finished basement flooded after gutters backed up and overflowed.   We had to tear out the basement floors and bottom 3 feet of drywall in preparation for installation of an interior french drain system.     We were on a tight time schedule for this part of the job because we needed to get it done before the french drain system could be installed.     Despite the fact that Chris' had a huge job going on at another home nearby, he managed to fit in this small job and get it done on time.
Afterwards we decided to have him perform the drywall repair and install the new tile shower and floor in the basement bathroom.   Again we were a small job and he managed to fit us in among other jobs he had going on in the area.  It certainly helped that I work from home, so his team could come and go pretty much as they had time.   But they got the job done in a reasonable amount of time.
Next year we plan on doing a kitchen update and NEMEC Construction will be one of the first companies we contact.

After having Chris do a couple of smaller jobs for us, we needed to make a significant addition to our home.  He helped us visualize what we wanted, gave us drawings, reworked them, and then oversaw all the work from pouring the slab to framing, roofing, plumbing, wiring, tiling and painting.  Dealt with unexpected obstacles creatively (like having to jack hammer up the existing cement floor of the bathroom when he found the plumbing wouldn't pass inspection). He responded to requests for changes realistically and with humor.  He held his subs to a very high standard of work and neatness. His crews were basically in our lives for several months and were always respectful and appropriate.  We are so very pleased with the results.  Our friends are jealous.

I really, really liked working with this company. They were extremely skilled, courteous, and professional. They  cleaned up carefully each day. The workmanship was excellent and very well priced. The new roof alone was impressive. They were also very collaborative and responsive to any requests. Overall, the whole company was just a joy to work with. Even the electrical and plumbing subcontractors were stellar.
