Get matched with top basement remodelers in Mattawa, WA

"OUr 21 yr old kitchen had a sliding glass patio door that we desired to be removed and replaced with a standard entry door and security door. This project was accomplished in early October. The project was completed in two days, with the kitchen entry door fully operational by the time the two workers left for the day. They not only had to remove the old patio doors, tracks, install new framing, but also empty and move a floor to ceiling cabinet blocking the wall space needed to make a seamless connection with the original wall. On the exterior of our home, they also prepared the area to install new plaster siding to again seamlessly connect with the original siding. The following day, the exterior security door was installed and everything was fully completed. During this second day's work, a matching security door at the front entrance of our home, including a covering of sun screening material was also installed. All necessary painting was meticulously performed. We are extremely pleased with the results. Now that the cold temperatures have been visiting us for a while, we definitely notice a coziness in the kitchen without our heat pump having to be on continually to experience comfortable warmth. Whenever I have recently baked (Cornish hens, strawberry muffins, Scottish shortbread cookies, made from scratch yeast breads, and etc) the kitchen remains comfortable into the evening hours. No more taping the patio door gap to keep the cold air from seeping into our home!"

"It's sad to see such good quality work left incomplete. Jeorge came out and gave us a good quote and was really great about getting things started and they did a solid job of getting the plans done and submitting everything with the city and getting inspections done as well. We felt like he listened to us but he did fall short on following through with our agreed cleanup items, he did not put the rocks back up/under our new deck or remove braces for a cement pad he poured and some of the finish work we had talked about on the railing was lacking with wedges in the corners and not treating the lumber like he said he would for weathering conditions as we had talked about leaving it to be more exposed to weather then we had paid and intended the material to be. Overall the deck is really solidly built but he left a lot of things incomplete for finish and finesse work, which we now have to do ourselves...with our own costs and time."

"Lisa is a genius! With creativity and precision, she maximized every nook and cranny of our tiny 1906 cottage and brought it into the 21st century, while maintaining its original charm and character. Our "new" home is so much more functional now, and a delight to live and work in. Lisa took the lead on our projects (kitchen, bathroom, basement), but Adam is equally savvy. Both are fantastic listeners, brainstormers, collaborators, total professionals and all-around lovely human beings. We highly recommend Christie Architecture, and look forward to working with them again in the future!"

"The project was essentially a remodel of a circa 1950's beach cabin with a small addition. We chose Baker and Son on the recommendation of our neighbor who had used them to build a detached garage. Our plans were relatively simple at first: build the addition, expand the kitchen, build a new bathroom and create a new entry. As work was underway, it became clear through the advice of Baker and Son that our kitchen was too big and out of scale for the cabin. We ended up eliminating some walls and opening up the cabin in such a way that created one large room but still a separate kitchen, dining and living. It was a huge improvement to the original design. In addition to the interior work, Baker and Son completely overhauled the exterior which included new windows and siding. New structural headers were required because they didn't exist. Also, since the cabin is post and pier construction, they leveled and strengthen the existing structure. Work included new skirting as well. Their attention to detail was very impressive. They are masters at creative problem solving, patient, responsive and positive. They have a very strong sense of design. We were never pressured into quick decisions. The contract arrangement for our project was essentially time and material because formulating a bid on an old cabin remodel would involve too many unknowns. We agreed to a fair hourly rate and all material and subcontracted work we paid directly with no additional overhead or fee. This saved us money. Since we lived out of town, Baker and Son were so well connected with various vendors and subcontractors, it simplified making arrangements. Now that our project is complete, we are so excited about the end result! We would highly recommend using Baker and Son Construction for any project."
