"They completely remodeled bathroom, beautiful job ! Now have an awesome walk-in shower. Responsive to problems with flooring that developed later. His team also completed hardwood flooring on my first floor along with installing a new dishwasher. Mark has a great eye for design. We got to know him while he was flipping houses in our neighborhood. Transformed these houses into beautiful homes now occupied by young families with children. They have also completed flooring and deck repair for family members."
"After obtaining quotes from several contractors, we selected BNQ to finish our 1800SQFT basement and put in a bathroom around a roughed in full bath. The team was punctual, professional and left the job site clean every day. The work was done on schedule, and as issues were uncovered (as any project has), they were communicated to us and we worked together to come up with any plan forward. Having used other contractors in the past, I couldn't be happier with BNQ's quality, responsiveness and overall quality of the job."
"The owners (Chris and Cal) did an excellent job on our remodeled project. They were personally involved with the project and worked directly with us during the entire planning and implementation of the work. They were true craftsmen. We wanted a contractor who could do the entire project and C&C fit the bill. They performed the drywall, flooring, windows, painting, electrical, and structural part of the job. We would highly recommend them ."
