Best remodel designers near Oakton, VA

"Ultimate Remodel created a custom design for my new kitchen which included moving utilities and removing and installing walls. They did an amazing job and vastly improved the beauty and functionality of the kitchen. The cabinets, counter tops, and all their materials are top quality. I was impressed with the quality of the workmanship. They were also able to get the work done quickly. I will definitely work with Ultimate Remodel again."

"Manex Remodeling has done a superb job in our home. We finally able to get all our 4 bathrooms , huge kitchen, basement with additional 2 rooms and sunroom complete. Quality of work was above and beyond. Thank you Manex Remodeling team."

"The effort made to construct the new yard deck that I described I wanted was fantastic. Every design I wished for was completed in a professional effort, in the time stipulated and in an unbelievable manner. If I find a future requirement I will no doubt contract this contractor."

"Simply fantastic. The Home Design team worked extraordinarily quickly and their work was of consistently high quality. They executed a total kitchen renovation and expansion for us and were excellent from design to completion. Their cabinets were custom and gorgeous. Their worksmanship was top-notch. They're a trustworthy and honest company. Highly recommend for all remodel and home repair needs!"

"When we first started to plan our kitchen renovation, we struggled to get responses from many local (Arlington, VA) contracting/kitchen&bath businesses. We were referred to Capstone Remodeling via a colleague who recently completed her bathroom remodel. Stephen returned our call immediately, and scheduled walk-through within a few days. The process was impressive. We had little-to-no knowledge of how kitchen renovations typically work, and didn’t have a clear picture in our heads for the final design. Stephen spent a little time taking notes, pictures, and making drawings of the general space. Following the visit, Stephen was able to provide us with a new design concept for the kitchen, which optimized the small space available in our condo kitchen, as well as a detailed estimate including labor and materials. Once we agreed, Stephen also provided us with his contacts for Cabinetry and appliances, who worked closely with us and Capstone Remodeling to ensure we purchased the right appliances for the new space, as well as coordinate deliveries and installation for cabinets and appliances. Stephen’s team provided electrical (had to re-wire some items!), plumbing, cabinet installation, flooring, painting and backsplash installation. Additionally, they worked with us to identify areas which may require additional adjustments (cabinets not quite in line, gaps between wall/cabinet, etc), installed a new ceiling fan, and removed all the old appliances for us! Due to the pandemic causing appliance stock issues, the process took longer than any of us expected, but the team was polite, friendly, honest, and seemed to genuinely care about the outcome. While I think they were hesitant about some of our color choices, we all agreed the kitchen turned out better than expected. We will absolutely use Capstone for our upcoming bathroom renovation!"

"Nick and his team also repaired/painted our deck plus numerous other projects around the house. If you need multiple projects done around the house look no further. Jaber Construction is really a one stop shop for whatever you are trying to do. Nick is really easy to work with and very prompt to respond. I would ð ¯ use his services again."

"We are so pleased with our kitchen renovation completed by WaterStone Kitchen and Bath. We didn’t know about them until a family friend recommended that we reach out to Jeff Thompson. We were in the midst of getting several bids and I didn’t know if I should get another. Oh my goodness. We are so happy that we did! During our first meeting, both Jeff and Deanna Llewellyn, his fantastic designer, met with us to look at our space, listen to our ideas and then they immediately started bouncing ideas off of one another. The out-of-the box thinking and design ideas were so welcomed! Jeff and Deanna proposed creating a walk-in pantry and making sure the lines in our kitchen were aligned. This hadn’t occurred to us and other companies hadn’t offered anything other than what we had proposed. Jeff and Deanna had us come into their office to see their proposal and drawings. We were so impressed and the space looked amazing in their drawings--two walls gone, a good sized walk-in pantry and lovely living space. Deanna immediately gave us ideas for cabinets and our island and they were exactly the color, offered the storage and presented the book shelves I was hoping for. We had a hard time containing our excitement. We feel their pricing was fair for the project they said they would be able to do. Their estimate was a little higher than our other bids but having gone with WaterStone, we feel they were worth the slightly higher price. Jeff even came up with ways where we could cut back on costs if we so chose. That was really helpful and gave us food for thought. Naturally we signed with them and they were able to do everything they promised in their designs! We intend to come back to Water Stone for future renovations. Jeff and his team came out right away to poke holes in walls and talk through his plans of moving plumbing and electrical components in our kitchen. They laid out a plan of attack and were able to start quickly and keep the renovation running, even during a pandemic. Luckily, we were able to move out during the renovation which I think helped the team get their work done more easily. Deanna was delightful to work with, always communicative and has wonderful taste. I knew I liked color and wanted to incorporate that into my granite, paint color and tiles. Once I had my granite selected, she helped to show me the best accents to go with it. She was also open to sourcing my pantry door from a new company that could provide frosted doors with interesting designs. I also found it helpful that she managed our expectations about timing as our renovation started right at the beginning of the pandemic. I would just love to work with Deanna again! Javier and his team who were assigned to our renovation were outstanding. Javier is incredibly talented and it’s amazing how much he can do. We were especially delighted when he was able to improve our pantry in several ways to allow us even more space. It’s fabulous! When we do another renovation, we would feel so lucky to get Javier and his team assigned to our home again. As with all renovations there are little bumps along the road and the only one we had for this renovation was when a batch of our new wood floors was a different tone from the other new boxes. Jeff immediately came out to look and the floor was fixed within days. Finally, it’s probably not many renovations where the “punch list” is almost non-existent but that was our renovation! My husband and I look at our open-space, beautiful kitchen and living area and can’t think of a single thing we would change. We feel spoiled by such a lovely experience, wonderful company, and genuinely nice people. We will absolutely come back to Water Stone when we want to renovate our home’s bathrooms. We hope that you consider Water Stone too--if you have anything near the experience we did, you’ll be beaming about your renovation as well!"

"Russell Blake from Total Renovating did a great job on my kitchen remodel. From start to finish, the whole process was relatively painless and headache free. He got the initial design perfect on the first try and applied it seamlessly to my space. His workers were very courteous and mindful of the home they were working in. Russell would also show up on site any time I requested it. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the work performed."

"I've had my share of renovation projects performed by people of various levels of experience, races, ages, ethnic and educational backgrounds. All of them had one thing in common: all these charming, decent, diligent, God-fearing etc contractors magically turned into evil creatures who would poison your life by not following your instructions, showing up late, making a huge mess, spoiling everything, and then disappear into the thin air soon after the deposit money change hands.
So in the beginning I was only cautiously optimistic about working with Israel Clavijo, although I was impressed my the level of his competence, punctuality, assertive yet very courteous manner. Little did I know that I was embarking on the most pleasing and carefree renovation experience of my life!
My big home had only two tiny coat closets which could not possibly house even a small part of my large family's outdoor clothes and shoes. Huge shoe piles in a middle of our elegant foyer, and coats, scarfs and hats hanging everywhere were the eyesore. I've decided to sacrifice part of my underutilized living room to build a large walk-in closet, and turn the existing closets by the entrance door into practical shoe closets. Israel didn't blinked at the idea of building the closet in the living room. Instead, he offered number of very valuable suggestions, did quick measurements and presented me with the proposal on a next day. After checking a couple of more highly recommended home improvement companies, I've decided to go with ICM not only because they were slightly more reasonable but also because I felt more confident working with them. I didn't regret my choice. I was given an honest time frame, which they were able to adhere to, although I kept adding new requests. Israel introduced his crew to me, they were punctual, hard working, neat, and very polite. They would start in the morning and finish in the evening; no long breaks, no mid-week days off, thank you very much. The results were stunning! Incredibly, design and execution of a new closet actually improved my living room's proportions! Israel and his crew diligently saved the wall moldings and matched the paint - my new closet looks very much like a part of the room. As for my new shoe closets, they are every inch as practical as they are pleasure to look at! Instead of expensive LED tape lights, Israel installed cute cabinet lights which served the purpose at the reduced cost. They installed a heavy chandelier in a room that never had a ceiling light - it took an expertise, finesse, and wiliness to satisfy the client. Before they started, they protected floors and furniture with plastic wrap and cardboard. After they finished their work, they cleaned up after themselves. When I asked for a couple of touch-ups, Israel had no problem doing so. I cannot finish my review without mentioning Wendy Clavijo, Israel's wife, office manager and his customer/company liaison. Very polite, very friendly, very diligent, she was always there to help. Everyone who comes to my home makes positive comments on my unusual yet charming clothes and shoes arrangements. I know that without Israel's professionalism and dedication I wouldn't have it. I'd like to express my gratitude to the whole ICM team.

"I highly recommend City Renovations and Remodeling to new and experienced homeowners and investors. In fact, Mike Wiggs, owner of the company, was highly recommended to me from a trusted source. Mike has been my designer, general contractor and project manager for over three years. He and his team of subcontractors for all the trades and handymen have successfully completed numerous projects for me. The internal big jobs included Mike and his team remodeling my basement into a permitted apartment with an egress window, injection well system, and recessed lighting; remodeling my kitchen into a larger space, better layout and upgraded appliances, cabinets, backsplashes (e.g., switching from an electric cooktop island to a slide-in gas range and installing a peninsula); changing the location of the sliding door and a set of windows in my sunroom for better flow and sightline from the front door entry to the patio door leading to my wooded backyard; replacing the damaged one of the two HVAC systems (i.e., one for the first floor and basement and the other for the second floor); and whole house interior painting and decorative touches (accent walls, trim, etc.) The external big jobs included Mike and his team resolving the sources of severe water damage to my two-story front door entry area and installing a new door, side lites and stoop. He resolved other water problems at my house by installing upgraded, larger gutters connecting to a new underground drainage system, and re-grading a section of the backyard next to my house in order to better collect water coming onto the house and move it away from the house. The other jobs Mike and his team completed include installing decorative lighting in the front of my house and security lighting at the sides and back; installing and repairing wooden privacy fencing in my backyard; washing away years of mold, mildew and stains from the siding of my house; and installing shelving for two closets and the laundry room to increase my storage space. After years of City Renovations and Remodeling successfully improving or repairing my home, I hired the company to help me with an investment rental property. Mike completed a walk-thru assessment and report to supplement the information from the home inspector and appraiser. Through my pre-purchase consultation with Mike, I got a good idea of what it would take improve the property given my goals and budget. I look forward to working with Mike and his team to renovate the property."
