Description of Work: Work quality is beyond reproach; delay in completion was not always explained and communication could be improved but the workmanship is worth the price.

Description of Work: MW did a complete remodel of two main floors of a townhouse which included the kitchen, living room, master bedroom and master bathroom and 2 stairwells. When I purchased the townhouse last summer, I opted to have all the remodel done upfront rather than breaking it out into smaller projects over time. The overall prohject took nearly 7 months, in large part because I ordered custom designed cabinetry and tile. During this time, I ran into relatively few complications and Drew, the project manager, did an exceptional job of coordinating with the designer, suppliers and subcontractors. The crew was punctual, polite and their quality of work was excellent. The remodel project was completed in January and I chose MW and the same team to do a smaller remodel of my basement. I highly recommend MW to anyone who is willing to spend a little more, but desires high quality of work.
