"We had Remark Construction finish our basement recently, and honestly, the whole experience was fantastic. From day one, they were super professional, easy to talk to, and really respectful of our home and time. At the start of the project, we worked directly with Chris, the owner, and he was great—quick to respond, gave us a fair price, and explained everything clearly. He laid out the process in a way that made sense and didn’t drag things out. We always knew what to expect, and he gave us a few pricing options so my husband and I could make the best decision for us. When it came time to sign the contract, Chris and Jesse sat down with us and walked through every detail. They were so easy to work with and made sure we were all aligned before moving forward. The selection process was super smooth—the whole team helped guide us through it, and they made it easy for us to make choices without feeling overwhelmed. Once things got rolling, the project moved fast. Our site manager, Brandon, was amazing. He gave us true white glove service—always professional, incredibly detail-oriented, and consistently went above and beyond. He kept us updated daily and weekly, made sure we understood what was happening, and double-checked every decision before moving forward. He was also incredibly respectful of our home. Even though it was a construction zone, we were genuinely amazed at how clean and well-kept everything was every single day. It made a huge difference and showed how much care he put into the project. Before wrapping up, he made sure every last detail was perfect before asking for our final review, and handled anything we asked for. We’re beyond happy with how everything turned out. Remark Construction made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!"

"Wonderful kitchen remodel 1st in Home Improvements did a great job on my complete kitchen remodel. Various updates had been made to the kitchen in our 1913 home but never with any planning or thought. It was definitely time for a total makeover. Although a fairly large room, approx. 280 sq. feet, with tall windows on two outside walls, an open stairway to the basement, hallway entering the middle of the space and a door to the dining room there wasn’t much wall space to place cabinets in a cohesive manner. There was space in the middle of the room for an 8 foot island. Efficient use of space dictated that we put the sink in the island and Joe accomplished this with no problems. One glitch we ran into during the construction process was the island turned out to be too close to the back wall cabinets and the space was very tight. Joe and his crew took the island apart and moved it a couple of inches into the room, away from the back cabinets, with minimal complaint. This seemingly small adjustment improved the workflow space and I was grateful for their effort. They built two pantry closets in space that was difficult to utilize. This greatly improved the storage in the kitchen, making it possible to store many needed items without a great deal of cabinetry. While in the process of initial planning and gathering cost information, Joe made the suggestion to put recessed lighting in the ceiling,which I wasn’t planning to do because I thought it would be too expensive. He pointed out that he would have to tear the ceiling up anyway so it wouldn’t add much to the cost. This turned out to be a great decision providing a lot of excellent lighting without being obtrusive. During construction, Joe asked many questions, making sure that they were proceeding according to my wishes. We ran into a problem while laying out the handmade tile backsplash with elongated diamond shaped tiles. The pattern that I had initially chosen had many straight lines, resulting in wavy lines everywhere that were too unnerving. Joe and his crew suggested an alternative way of laying out the tiles, which turned out to be an improvement on the original pattern and resulted in a great looking backsplash. The quality control turned out to be substandard on the custom cabinets I had ordered online. Although the company was willing to make replacements, getting them to do so in a timely manner was difficult. Joe did a great job of fixing them up in some cases, and making them look good. He even returned after finishing the job to put on a replacement cabinet door that arrived after the job was completed. Joe and his crew painted the kitchen and trim, laid a new LVT floor, installed large glass pendant fixtures over the island, in short did everything necessary to complete a gorgeous new kitchen. And did so while being pleasant to be around and tidying up the workspace everyday before leaving the jobsite. I highly recommend 1st in Home Improvements. They produced a beautiful kitchen and did so for a reasonable price."
