Amazing ! Bob ( the owner !) was hands on, he let me know exactly what was going on and what to prepare for. I can honestly say they are the only contractor I would use for my home. I could not give a high enough review for Creative Contracting they are simply the best.

Tried to go over budget after damaging our supplied cabinets and appliances. Exceeded timeline. Did not finish job, and then tried to get us to sign a release form with a non-disclosure clause. Do your homework first. Check out your county's Prothonotary website, you'll see the history.

It was a very long time ago and hopefully he has changed his practices. He did the kitchen and bath all at once so I was forced to sleep on the couch in the lving room. The carpet installed was not stain resistant as promised but stained easily. I fired him 5 times but each time he came over and promised me he would get the job right. Unfortunately his workman whose name I no longer recall was wonderful. I tried to hire him to complete the work but since he worked for creative contracting he could not do so. They installed a Jacuzzi tub. It was part of the estimate which we were told was the cost of all that he was to do. The person who was responsible for payments had gone on vacation and was unavailable. Bob seemed to take advantage of this telling me, for instance, that the bath was installed but I would have to give him $2,000 +more for him to put in and connect the electric for the tub to work. Because the house was in such disarray since he was doing everything at once, I stupidly rehired him each time he promised to do the work correctly and professionally. I was looking for contractors today which is why I came to the site. When I saw he was still in business I felt compelled to tell you of my experience with him.

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! As uncomfortable as a home remodel can be, CC's crew went out of their way to make things as easy as possible for us. The kitchen island is where all of our guests like to congregate when they're over. We're told it's such a beautiful kitchen and beautiful family room and beautiful house. We couldn't be happier and it's been 6 years since our remodel. I called Bob DuBree just the other day to schedule a small job, because I know Creative Contracting will do it right. We chose to do the whole house (almost) remodel all at once rather than spread the mess out over years and years. We are so happy and do a lot of entertaining inside and out. People love coming here! WE COULDN'T BE HAPPIER!!
Description of Work: Creative Contracting provided general contracting for an almost-whole-house remodel. They weren't the cheapest but they were absolutely EXCELLENT. Workers were ontime every single day, contained dust and debris to work areas, left work area broom-clean daily. We had the kitchen and family room completely remodeled including extending kitchen 2 feet beyond existing rear wall of house, moved laundry room to second floor, rebuilt large deck, installed new roof and Andersen windows and doors throughout house, installed siding over stucco, installed imitation stone over stucco, replaced tiled/carpeted floors with hardwood, and sanded existing hardwood floors to match new hardwood flooring. Bob DuBree of Creative Contracting sat down with us and accurately designed the entire remodel to meet our needs and budget. One of the staff took us out shopping to pick out countertops, custom kitchen cabinets, knobs, handles, paint colors, lighting, doors, imitation stone, roof color, siding color, appliances, etc. We would have floundered without their help. Creative Contracting used several excellent sub-contractors with which they had positive existing relationships. They even put us in touch with someone who would install our television and related sound and speakers in kitchen, family room and on the deck. Even though they used outside subs, Creative Contracting had their foreman/carpenter onsite to coordinate and manage all work. CC's workmen took kitchen and family room down to studs, removed existing tile/carpeted floors, and ceilings. They cantilevered the kitchen extension as well as a small extension in family room to build a seat/storage space below bay window. CC tore out old wood decking and installed Timbertek. They wrapped the house in insulation before the siding/roofing guys came. They arranged for dumpster delivery and removal. I will use Creative Contracting for all of my remodeling needs.

They are very extremely creative in their design. They really listen to what my husband and I were looking for and incorporated that. They were really high quality workmanship i.e. our kitchen really turned out to be a showcase and everyone who comes out feels like it's like the most beautiful kitchen they've seen. They did a phenomenal job. It completely changes our whole house. Price I think it may have been a little bit higher than the other quotes but I think the price definitely reflected a phenomenal final product. It is absolutely worth it. We have no complaints. We will used them again if we need their services.
Description of Work: We used Creative Contracting Inc for our kitchen renovation. We have laundry room on the first floor they put that in the basement and then they extended the kitchen part through to our family room. It was a complete redo. They put on the hardwood floors throughout most of the first floor.

It was quite an expense. It didn't start off too well. I had asked for a copy of the proposal to read before I signed it. I had requested it twice, but he didn't send it. I had to finally cancel the appointment. I do have the proposal on my computer; however, I haven't had an opportunity to read it. I intend to get back to him sometime next week. Their quote was just too high. They were going to do some patio work for me; however I have postponed the patio work. We decided to pause on the patio work because our family decided that the addition to the house was more important than the patio work. My son and daughter moved back with me. It is an outside work. I contacted him and he said he did that kind of work. That's why we had him come out. We changed our minds about what direction we were having to take. I haven't read the proposal yet. He said he would send the proposal and he didn't. I contacted him and he told me that he was swamped with work, which didn't go down too well with me. I told him if he was swamped with work, I had no idea when my work would be done. I will contact him next week again to see if we can come to some agreement. He didn't quote, but instead just asked me how much I intended to spend. It was just a proposal as to the work that would be done. That was another reason why I had to look over the proposal. I didn't know if I was getting what I would like to have which was a two storied addition or an outhouse. It doesn't tell me much and before I sign anything, I need to know what I am getting for the amount of money my estimate would be. It is quite an expense. Several things stood out about him. When I checked about him I found out that Creative Contracting Inc. is a member of NARI, the National Association of Remodelers. He had been a president a couple of times, and has been in business for 20 years. Apparently he had done some work for a family across the road from me. I have looked up on Angie's List too just to see what other comments were made. I think he was surprised that I had checked out to such an extent about his NARI affiliation. You have to have certain requirements to be a member of NARI in remodeling. That was one reason why I chose him. I have only met the gentleman once. I really don't know what's exactly going to happen. I am only going by what I have read about him and spoken to him to rate him. He was here right on the dot when he was supposed to. I don't know whether his quote will be good or just mediocre. It is hard to say if I will use him, as I need to see what his quality of work is, before I recommend him to anybody else. I would like to find out what he would do for me, before I recommend him to someone else. I hope everything works alright. This is well over $100,000 and since it is a great deal of money, I would not just choose anybody.
Description of Work: I got a quote from Creative Contracting Inc. to do some patio work outside. The last time they came over was perhaps two weeks ago. The work also included putting on a two-story addition with a bath, closets, and depending upon what else could be done, another bedroom.

Contractor was engaging and seemed involved in the project initially...He became less interested and less responsive as time went on. Perhaps he was uncertain about profitability as he realized the scope of the project. Very late with estimates and with presenting options with regard to materials. Required frequent reminders. Did provide final estimate which was well written and within the general range of $35,000.00.

The contractor suggested a different solution and suggested it was not best to engage their services since the problem is different than what I had anticipated previously. Overall good, honest service.

My experience with Creative Contracting was disappointing and unprofessional. My wife and I needed to replace our back door frame, door and door window glass. We also wanted to talk about our options for a complete back porch remodel. I was pleasantly surprised when I called and Bob Dubree at Creative said he could be out the next day at noon to take a look. But the next day at 12:30pm when Bob had not yet arrived I called to see what the problem might be. His answer: "Oh, yeah, sorry about that I kinda forgot. Anyway the job is going to be too small for us to make it worth the trip." That was it. I was struck by the general lack of professionalism shown by Mr. Dubree that even a quick phone call to let us know he wasn't coming was not in order. But I was more surprised by his conclusion that the job was "too small" when he had neither seen the house nor discussed details of the job with us. I will not be calling or recommending Creative Contracting again.

Incredibly awesome! As miserable as remodeling is, Creative made this as comfortable as it possibly could be. First, Bob designed the kitchen and worked with me throughout the project to give me the exact look and feel I wanted. Rich, the lead carpenter supervised everything. Demolition was quick. Every evening during the entire project, the house was left broom clean. I was given an approximate schedule of the entire project and when payments were due throughout. Creative did not cut corners. Everything was perfect. All new custom cabinets using up all usable space, storage galore. Everyone who comes to my house asks me who my contractor was and I'm proud to say Creative Contracting. My kitchen is now THE place to entertain. This is how I wanted it! I'm so happy with my house which is now practically a brand new house, thanks to Creative Contracting. I chose Creative Contracting because my very, very fussy neighbor (who did a lot of research on contractors) had a kitchen expansion and a bedroom added on by Creative. I watched them work every day over there. As during my project, they were on site every single day without fail. The workers were very friendly. I decided if my very fussy neighbor was extremely happy with her remodel, then I had to look no further than Creative Contracting. I never interviewed another contractor and glad I didn't.
Description of Work: I was living in the house for 1 year when things started to go wrong (appliances breaking, etc.). Many people remodel to sell, I remodeled to live in the house for decades to come. So, I hired Creative Contracting for: Kitchen expansion/remodel including going out the back of the kitchen an additional 2 ft. (cantilevered), family room remodel including open/close bench seat for storage, new roof, new siding, new stone front, new windows throughout house, replace deck, move laundry room upstairs, new electrical doggie door, paint dining room, foyer through upstairs hall way, hardwood kitchen/family room floor (plus sanding darker wood in the dining and living rooms and foyer to almost perfectly match the kitchen/family room hardwood. The nature of the job required almost all new plumbing throughout the house. I could have broken up all of these projects into bits, but why keep suffering through the mess. All of the above was done in 3 months. They never left the job. Creative has awesome carpenters, subcontractors and vendors. See the interior and exterior (before and after) pictures on the contractor's website at www.creativecontracting.biz/gallery/kitchen_additions/4.htm.
