Every single person at Pillar was professional, strong work ethic and had exceptional communication. The project was ahead of schedule and within budget. We highly recommend working with Pillar, we had such a great experience. Thank you Shawn and to your team for the honest hard work in making our vision come to life. We are so very thankful and couldn’t have asked for a better contractor to work with! **Comment from Pillar Construction & Remodel:** > Thank you , we had fun bringing your vision to reality. ### All 129 reviews **★★★★★ — Kara Gist, June 2026** > We had a fantastic experience with Shawn, Will, and the entire team. We finished on time and on budget with an exceptional result that exceeded our expectations. They are a pleasure to work with - true professionals who understand quality, customer service, and attention to detail. We love our new wing! **★★★★★ — tshaw202, April 2026** > Highly recommend Pillar. They remodeled our master bath in which we changed design midway through, yet all went smoothly as Shawn was extremely helpful with redesign. During the same time we also had Pillar remodel our living room opening it up to the outside by taking out an old fireplace and adding sliding glass doors while also incorporating a new exterior porch. > > With both projects Shawn was great to work with, providing guidance and recommendations that were insightful and much appreciated. Shawn also worked with us to go through a zoning variance enabling all to go through smoothly. His crew were professional, courteous, skilled and did a great job of cleaning up daily. > > We are very pleased with the results. **★★★★★ — B P, March 2026** > Our community hired Pillar Construction to perform remodeling work on a 50 year old guard house. After meeting with Shawn, we came up with a plan on the work needed and got to work. The challenge was that this building is staffed 24/7 by a security staff and the crew would need to relocate while the interior was demoed and rebuilt over a few months. Shawn was instrumental in developing a plan to relocate the staff into a portable building so that that operation and remodel could be performed at the same time while minimizing disruption. > The work consisted of new cabinetry, countertops, ceiling, flooring, paint, bathroom, electrical and exterior surface pavers. Once started, the crew showed up daily, were friendly, professional and very skilled with their work. Of course there were hiccups and unknown findings, but Shawn and his team were very responsive and always had a plan to mitigate any issues and keep the project moving. The renovation turned out great thanks to Shawn and his highly skilled team! **★★★★★ — Sarah Deal Interiors, March 2026** > We had a fantastic experience working with Pillar Construction on the exterior renovation of our home. Their team handled a full scope of work, including demolition of the existing siding and soffits, installation of NuCedar siding, new soffits, and all new trim around our windows and doors, along with painting and overall project coordination. > > From start to finish, they were communicative, organized, and incredibly easy to work with. They stayed on schedule, kept everything moving efficiently, and were flexible and collaborative in incorporating specific materials and details that were important to us. > > The level of craftsmanship and attention to detail truly shows in the finished product—we are absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out! We would not hesitate to recommend Pillar Construction and look forward to working with them again in the future. > > Sarah D. **★★★★★ — Karen Celander, March 2026** > What a wonderful family team to work with. I trusted Shawn and crew to dismantle, design, offer suggestions and reassemble a kitchen and bath for me even not being on site!! They sent me pics daily of the progress which was completed in a short amount of time. Pillar Construction should be everyone’s first choice!! **★★★★★ — bfdeal3, March 2026** > Shawn is an excellent contractor and was a delight to work with. We replaced all of the siding on our house with a new type of shingles that has rarely been used in our area (NuCedar PVC shingles). We also replaced all of the soffits and then painted everything. Shawn did an excellent job of reviewing all of the supplier’s recommended procedures and then following them. The job came out great! I would highly recommend Pillar Construction for anyone needing to do renovations or construction. **★★★★★ — Betsy McNiel, March 2026** > Pillar did a great job for us, stepping up to repair our kitchen and dining room after our water heater failed. We had started with one company which was doing a poor job and taking forever. Shawn returned my call for help while on vacation- unbelievable! He and his team awesome: very ethical, professional, prompt, highly skilled and efficient. They did a beautiful job replacing my hardwood floors, reinstalling my kitchen cabinets, etc and they even had someone we could schedule to help with moving our furniture back and cleaning up. They were wonderful to work with — especially after our previous bad experience with the job. And they did everything to make it easy for us. Price was excellent too! I will definitely call on Shawn and recommend him to my friends. **★★★★★ — HU-170175351, Nov. 2025** > Pillar Construction & Remodel went truly above and beyond. After years of searching for our dream home— four bedrooms, an open floor plan, a big yard, and no HOA— we finally found a house with potential, but it needed major renovations. Shawn and Haley walked in, instantly understood our vision, and transformed the entire space into everything we had imagined and more. Their professionalism, creativity, and dedication made the process seamless. We are beyond grateful for their exceptional work and the beautiful home they helped us create. **★★★★★ — Nancy McElvain, Nov. 2025** > We recently had our condo near Neptune Beach renovated by Shawn Pillar and his team, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the entire crew was professional, friendly, and incredibly responsive. They were always available to answer questions and provided thoughtful guidance on both structural and design decisions. > Their attention to detail and commitment to quality really stood out. We felt supported throughout the entire process and truly appreciated their expertise. > > We would absolutely work with Shawn and his team again—no hesitation. Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — HU-565506048, Oct. 2025** > I noticed water coming through my fireplace and bathroom exhaust fan, I reached out to Pillar and they came out to replace the rotting wood on my chimney that was causing the leak. I couldn't be more pleased with the results and to not have to worry about any more leaks. The crew was very kind, got the job done quickly, and cleaned up after themselves. Will definitely reach out to Pillar for any more home projects in the future! **★★★★★ — Aimee Cooper, Oct. 2025** > We had a really good experience with Pillar Construction & Remodel for our 4 bathroom, 2nd story flooring upgrade and our external makeover. Obviously, with 4 bathrooms being completely ripped out and upgraded, with 4 people living in the house the entire time, it was a complex project to say the least! From the beginning, Shawn was great at project management. Any time we had a question or noticed an issue, he had the team immediately jump on it and get it corrected. Haley was also extremely responsive and provided auditable spreadsheets tracking the complete project estimate including actuals. > > Also with so much work being completed, we had to continuously talk about timelines and alignment with schedules that worked for us. We started this project at the beginning of this year and had to work around my son's graduation, traveling, house guests, etc. Our needs were ALWAYS taken into consideration which we greatly appreciated! > > Our bathrooms turned out beautifully! And the exterior of our house, which is something that I was initially afraid of doing but was really looking for a drastic change in appearance, turned out much better than I had expected! Every time I pull into the driveway and look at our house, I am just amazed and SO HAPPY we made those changes to its appearance. We have really enjoyed seeing how the new fiberglass door made to look like wood, looks exactly like wood! No one would be able to tell that it wasn't a real wood door. Living in this Florida humidity, we will never use anything else. It's just beautiful! I'm so glad that Shawn talked me into this option versus real wood! > > One thing that our neighbors mentioned to us was that they were amazed we had a crew showing up every day. A lot of friends commented that they have had nightmare projects with the project being dead for long periods of time because the crew wasn't showing up. Outside of family emergencies and such, the crew showed up when they said they would. Shawn mentioned to me when we were considering his company along with others, that it is his crew, his direct employees, that works on the house other than a few skilled tradesmen that he hires to come in when needed like plumbers, electricians, etc. > > All in all, we absolutely do recommend using Pillar Construction for any of your remodel needs. They are reliable, skilled and professional. I don't think you can really get better than that. And we have hired other companies to upgrade our kitchen as well as another bath in another house. Those were not companies that we would consider using again. I do not think you can go wrong by hiring Shawn and his crew. There isn't much left to our house that would need to be remodeled but should we find ourselves needing to, we absolutely would use Pillar Construction again. Thank you Shawn, Haley and crew! **Comment from Pillar Construction & Remodel:** > Thank you Aimee, we enjoyed working with you and your husband. Your home is stunning. **★★★★★ — Caroline Jett-Sun, Oct. 2025** > Shawn and his team did a great job with our backyard renovation, and it looks amazing! Shawn was excellent every step of the way, from the very first design/ budget meeting to the last punchlist item. He and his team were always super responsive and willing to make changes/ adjust/ revisit to make us happy. It was our first home project of this size, and he patiently answered all of our questions and helped us see our vision through, including coordination with outside vendors, such as pool and turf. I am especially appreciative of the countless hours he spent meeting and following up with the City of AB for the proper permits/ approvals. Other contractors would not have been so diligent in navigating the bureaucracy and all of the different opinions/ decisions held by various departments. I can honestly say that this project would not have gotten done without his patience, determination and follow through with the city. We are very happy that we chose Shawn and Pillar for this project! **Comment from Pillar Construction & Remodel:** > Thank you, it was a pleasure building your garage and apartment space for your family. **★★★★★ — S G, Sept. 2025** > Pillar Construction built a sunroom addition to replace an old 30 yo lanai. After discussing our vision to tear down this lanai and build a sunroom they created plans and went to work to transform the space into our dream backyard. We were building a pool at the same time. We also enclosed the pool. Pillar Construction worked and coordinated with the other companies so there were no conflicts in scheduling. Their workers were professional and cleaned their work areas at the end of each day. The foreman for our job helped us to modify any changes as the project progressed. We are very happy with the final results. **Comment from Pillar Construction & Remodel:** > Thank you, the entire project came out wonderful and you and your family will enjoy it for many many years **★★★★★ — HU-753765502, Sept. 2025** > Outstanding work! Far superior to what I’d hoped! And under budget! Highest recommendation for this company. **Comment from Pillar Construction & Remodel:** > Thank you, we appreciate the opportunity to work with you **★★★★★ — Darren Wright, Sept. 2025** > Five-Star Kitchen Renovation Experience: > Pillar Construction and Remodeling recently completed a renovation on my kitchen, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. Their team removed several walls and raised the ceilings, completely transforming the space into a more open, airy, and inviting environment. They also installed new lighting that beautifully complements the updated layout. > Throughout the entire process, the crew was exceptionally courteous, respectful, and mindful of their surroundings. They kept the work area tidy and minimized disruption, which made the experience smooth and stress-free. Most importantly, the quality of their craftsmanship was outstanding—every detail was handled with care and precision. > I highly recommend Pillar Construction and Remodeling to anyone seeking reliable, professional service and top-tier results. They exceeded my expectations in every way. **Comment from Pillar Construction & Remodel:** > Thank you. You were great people to work with and we enjoyed bringing it to reality **★★★★★ — Chris Griffith, Sept. 2025** > My rental townhouse was in major disrepair, and I have not paid any attention to it in 10 years. My tenant was complaining about water leaking into the first-floor window and above the back slider door. We had significant issues that needed attention and Pillar Construction & Remodel jumped into action. They completely replaced all the siding on the back of the house and chimney, fixed the leaks, and replaced any damaged wood. Also, they fixed the sheetrock and window trim in the inside around the windows Next, they caulked and painted the entire house, stained the back porch, and replaced all the gutters since the old ones were in bad shape. Now it looks brand new, and we are incredibly pleased with the elevated level of expertise, and the team completed it in a very timely manner. Excellent job Pillar Construction & Remodel! **Comment from Pillar Construction & Remodel:** > Thank you, happy to help you all with the repairs **★★★★★ — Stephen Gunter, Feb. 2025** > A to Z totally professional! Excellent communication and quality work. Completely satisfied with everything they did for us during a very trying time. **★★★★★ — Ed Walsh, Feb. 2025** > Shawn and his staff did an excellent job on the total renovation of my home in Atlantic Beach. They were a pleasure to deal with > > upfront and honest. I would highly recommend Pillar Construction. **★★★★★ — HU-408963875, Feb. 2025** > Shawn went beyond and above to do what we needed done! Pillars crew was very awesome and couldn't ask for a more honest bunch. i never missed one item. i was not used to that. Other people i had painted and they stole everything they could pick up but not the Pillar Bunch. They went beyond and beyond for us to be satisfied **★★★★★ — Susan Parisi, Feb. 2025** > Shawn and his crew are superb!! I can’t say enough good things about Pillar Construction & Remodel. Our house was sold in a week’s time. Thanks so much for your time and superb skill set in selling this property. **★★★★★ — HU-718116433, Sept. 2024** > We built a home with a different builder and the whole thing was a disaster. Pillar came in and finished our home and we are eternally grateful for their professionalism and attention to detail. They laid out expectations clearly, finished on time and on budget and the quality is unparalleled. I wish we had gone with Pillar from the beginning. I COULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY MORE!!!!! **★★★★★ — Lynne Schwarz, Sept. 2024** > I love our new bathroom! Everyone that was part of our remodeling job were wonderful. They made the process really easy, from picking out the tile to moving the plumbing. When I had any scheduling conflicts, they were very understanding and able to accommodate any issue I had. This is a legit company who tells you up front the price with absolutely no surprises. I will use no other construction company for any future projects. Highly recommend!! **★★★★★ — HU-43274945, April 2024** > It was our second time using Pillar and we would call them if we needed a third remodel!! Excellent finished product and we are thrilled with our new bathrooms!! **★★★★★ — HU-408836380, April 2024** > Very happy with the final result of our project. We did an outdoor cabana with a gas fireplace and converted windows to French doors, along with an outdoor kitchen. Pillar take pride in the quality of their work, so I trusted them and was rewarded with the great final product. Communication was good once the work started. **★★★★★ — Henry, Dec. 2023** > Great people to work with. We were nervous going into this project, but Shawn Griffith was great to work with. He worked with us and helped us get through the process with minimum delays. We wanted to remodel a bathroom and discovered termite damage along the way that had spread to adjoining rooms. Shawn provided excellent guidance on the best way to handle our problems. He was also there to help and consult with us anytime there was a hiccup or a question. We would be happy to recommend Shawn and Pillar Construction to anyone. > > Glen Hall provided great project management. He had workers lined up for every step along the way. Glen kept us informed on who was scheduled and when to expect them. Everyone on site displayed a professional and efficient manor. The excellent workmanship left very few minor items for the punch list. Our project was completed just before Thanksgiving (sooner than expected) and Glen Hall was definitely on this year's "Thankful For" list. **★★★★★ — Angela, Nov. 2023** > After another contractor had bailed on us, we reached out to Pillar. They responded promptly, gave an accurate estimate and finished the job as promised. Like most construction projects, we ran into some problems but they worked around it and helped us to end up with a finished product that we are very happy with. Glen, the field supervisor, was especially helpful and made sure the job was done well. He also responded quickly to questions. > If we had any complaint it would be that they are very busy which means some days you may not see the crew, but all of this was communicated. > All in all, very happy with our primary bathroom remodel. **★★★★★ — David and Linda Rogers, Nov. 2023** > On time . Cleaned up. Wonderfull job. Price was right. Would recommend time. A real professional contractor..we are very happy. Does many jobs in our area. **★★★★★ — claude, May 2023** > I loved working with Pillar and its representatives - Shawn, Haley, Glenn, etc as they were incredibly professional, extremely timely (finished building a two-story home in record time and a month prior to the stipulated contract time), and very responsive to all of my questions. My new neighbors raved about how quickly everything was built and how hard everyone was working on the project. This was my first time building a home and I could not have been more happy with the process. Shawn, my favorite GC / builder, walked me through every single step throughout the construction, while Haley guided me through selections and more selections to fit my "budget". Should I ever need another home built or renovated, I would definitely call Pillar. **★★★★★ — Kristi Durant, March 2023** > We had a wonderful experience with Pillar Construction. Our project was a total kitchen and home renovation. > This was the 4th time using Pillar and the quality of workmanship is excellent. Haley and Shelby helped with the design, layout, cabinets, flooring, countertops and paint colors. They both have a great design sense and really helped narrow our choices. Shawn, Glen and the entire Pillar crew did exactly what they said they were going to do. Always on time and we especially liked the clean up at the end of every day. As with any big project there were a few changes we made. Doors, switches, light fixtures etc. These items were never a problem and the additional cost was very reasonable. The custom touches Pillar did really make our renovation stand out. The look on our friends and neighbors face say it all when they see the house for the first time. We will definitely use Pillar for our next project. **★★★★★ — P. Heffner, March 2023** > Bathroom Remodel > We are very pleased with Pillar Construction company. The process from beginning to end was handled by all with a professional and competent understanding of what we wanted. The actual remodel of our bathroom was completed with people who were knowledgeable and experienced. > > The finished project was to our complete satisfaction. We would recommend Pillar and would use them again when needed. **★★★★★ — Patricia and John Harris, March 2023** > Shawn Griffith is an extremely reliable contractor. On this particular project, he did a total gutting and renovation of two bathrooms. In a different home, he renovated two bathrooms and a laundry room. He begins a job when he promises. He has experienced project managers and reliable subcontractors. Our experience is that his jobs come in on price, with the exception of agreed upon changes. When problems occur, he makes them right. His company helps with the design, explaining what can be, what can be done--however it will be costly, and what he does not recommend. His team also helps with material selection, and his team coordinates all of the material supply, except for those limited items that the homeowner choses to supply. The work is of very high quality. **★★★★★ — Lynda Somach Interior Design, Feb. 2023** > PILLAR CONSTRUCTION WAS A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH! AS AN INTERIOR DESIGNER WHO USUALLY WORKS IN ANOTHER STATE, AND WAS CONCERNED ABOUT SOME LONG-DISTANCE COMMUNICATION, THE JOB WENT GREAT. THEY WERE EASY TO COMMUNICATE WITH AND WHEN THERE WERE PROBLEMS, EVERYONE STEPPED UP AND FOUND SOLUTIONS QUICKLY. > > i WAS HIGHLY RECCOMMEND PILLAR CONSTRUCTION AND WILL NOT HESITATE TO US THEM AGAIN! **★★★★★ — HU-176988415, Feb. 2023** > Thoroughly enjoyed working with Pillar on our renovation (two bedrooms and bath)! Haley and Glen are amazing and the Pillar team is professional, prompt and courteous! Great communication and a pleasure to work with. Will definitely use in the future to upgrade our kitchen **★★★★★ — HU-372894716, Aug. 2022** > Loved the remodel work done on my son’s home. Shawn and his team meant with us to pick out tile and granite. The job was both inside and outside. They brought > A dumpster to throw away the trash and kept the yard clean. Easy to work with. > Steve Woodford **★★★★★ — HU-98339729, June 2022** > Pillar Construction has done a great job in shepherding the building of our new community swimming pool and bath house as well as other projects required by the homeowners association. Shawn Griffith is very attentive and responsive to requests and takes action to make things happen as quickly as possible. **★★★★★ — angie1015, June 2022** > Working with Pillar Construction they stand behind their work. They truly care and are passionate about the quality and service. I had so many questions concerning my renovation and Glenn (project manager) always responded be it text or > phone calls always in a timely manner . The entire team at Pillar Construction is awesome. I can't thank them enough for a job well done. Choosing a company that you can trust , reliable and honest means alot because it's hard to find. You won't regret choosing this company for whatever your needs or dream maybe. Everyone was professional, friendly and they always listened to my needs and followed through. I'm a very happy client. They did an amazing job. The price point was fair from start to finish. Special thanks again to Mr. Glenn going over and beyond. **★★★★★ — HU-399370948, June 2022** > We hired Pillar Construction for a complete Master Bath tear-out and remodel. It was a tough project, there were some glitches along the way, but Pillar went beyond what was necessary to make everything right. **★★★★★ — tinam32259, June 2022** > It took us several months to find the right company to do our bathroom (3) remodels. However, it was worth the search. Shawn and his team especially Glen were incredibly professional and always transparent about timelines and materials. Doing a remodel is never easy but doing it in the middle of a pandemic was short of a miracle. The team was on budget and never made changes without an approved change request from us. I would recommend Pillar to my family and friends without hesitation. Incredibly professional not only their entire staff but also their subcontractors. They were incredibly gracious and even went above and beyond by adding a few extras that were not in the original plan to make everything perfect for us. **★★★★★ — HU-43274945, March 2022** > Pillar Construction aims to please!! With shortages of products , etc Pillar works to meet the needs of their clients!! I give Pillar an A+ for communication which means everything during a project!! Quick responses and taking the wonder out of what’s next is key to my satisfaction!!! The employees are kind and courteous too!!! **★★★★★ — HU-988196240, Jan. 2022** > My husband and I highly recommend this company! They did a complete master bath shower tear-out and installation, and painting and new flooring of (almost) our entire house. The owner is professional, honest, punctual, fair, knowledgeable, and has expertise in his field. We experienced excellent service with the office staff as well as the workers in our home. **★★★★ — Grant, Nov. 2021** > Pillar did a great job with our whole house remodel. Glenn H. and his crew were terrific and a delight to work with. Also, Pillar’s subs were great. **★★★★★ — HU-840939794, Sept. 2021** > As a real estate agent I was a buyer’s agent on the sale of a home constructed by Pillar Construction! At the time of the home inspection, my inspector who is a licensed contractor, advised me that the house was built the way he would build a home! I remembered that when my mom moved in with me Ams we needed to add an addition to our home! Pillar Construction did an awesome job on our addition! Their subs were all experienced , respectful and mindful as to cleaning up after themselves! During Covid the Pillar construction group were always transparent as to lack of supplies, if there would be a delay and the next course of action throughout the building process! I have had neighbors come by asking about the company and welcomed them to see come and see the finished product. I have encouraged my neighbor to call Pillar Construction for an estimate on their desired future project and I have had one real estate customer call to get a quote on a bath remodel! I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a a qualified conscientious company that will deliver a “stellar” product! **★★★★★ — Carly Johnson, Sept. 2021** > We recently used Pillar for a kitchen renovation and are very happy with their work. We met with several companies prior to starting our project and chose Pillar because we liked what we saw of the work they had previously done, they were within our budget and they also made us feel the most comfortable. We lived in our house while the work was being done and Glen and his team did their best to keep things as clean and safe as possible for us both while they were working and after they had gone for the day. Despite the pandemic, we really didn't encounter too many delays. The ones we did were slight and we were kept up to date on the status of everything. Most importantly, Shawn, Glen and the rest of the Pillar team made sure we were happy with the end result and that we got what we wanted. If we asked for something to be fixed or changed, they made sure it got done to our satisfaction. With the scale of our project, two young children, two dogs and working and living in the house while the construction was being done, this project could have easily been a nightmare and very stressful, but it wasn't. It honestly couldn't have gone much smoother. We love our new space and are very happy we chose to work with Pillar. We'd definitely work with them again for future projects. **★★★★★ — Mark Stabel, Sept. 2021** > Shawn and his staff did a great job making the sketches and images I initially supplied on my dinning room table materialize into a well-built /designed 3 car garage with bonus storage on top. > > My wife and I, while looking for our "forever" home & specifically purchased our home and it's location with the intention of being able to build a separate detached workshop/garage area for the many hobbies I have and the additional storage space. Soon after moving into our home I started the search for the right General Contractor that I would feel comfortable with that I could trust and would be able to get the job done. I did my research, believe me. I was very impressed with Shawn from day one, Shawn was no-nonsense and after the usual introduction he was genuinely interested in what my project was. As I stated earlier, I had some sketches and a few magazine pictures of what I was looking for exterior-wise, and Shawn took it from there asking me what type tools/hobbies that I'd be using the garage for? I mentioned some welding, wood-working and so on, and with that he started determining the number of outlets, amp requirements and so on. He wanted to get involved in my project from day one, and that impressed me. Shawn did this all before we got into a price quote for the project. > > My 3 car garage/bonus room was bid on by 4 other General Contractors in our area. First off, most were not eager to take on a detached garage project, because they were too busy with residential home building. I did not feel comfortable with the sales people that I met with representing some of the other GC's. It just seemed like they really didn't have first hand knowledge of some of the building structure questions that I asked during their meetings with me, as they kept referring to, "What ever the engineers plans call for". Of course, That's several thousand to draw up! Money$$ First question out of most of their mouths, "How much money are you going to spend?" Dead turn off, right away! > > Shawn, the owner of PILLAR was able to able to provide me with some general details of the proposed structure (unlike the above mentioned), without having to look at a engineers drawing , because he has years of experience and that showed from the beginning to the end of the building project. Something worth mentioning, from the first day every person that worked in the construction of my building was a professional skilled tradesman, I was totally impressed! If there was anything that wasn't exactly the way I wanted it, Shawn , the job supervisor Glenn and his team of dedicated workers made sure it was right. Good people! **★★★★★ — kmcg67, Sept. 2021** > We are extremely pleased with Pillar Construction and the results of our recent renovation. The job was done on time and within the agreed upon price! The dreaded punch list is being followed up upon quickly and with good results. Glen is an incredible project manager; Haley is extremely knowledgeable and helpful with selections, and change orders are being handled at a reasonable price. Thank you, Shawn, and everyone at Pillar! **★★★★★ — HU-783736377, Aug. 2021** > Shawn and Haley (and Glenn!) were all wonderful to work with. They had great ideas, didn’t upsell you anything, and always made sure things got done. Our townhouse reno was extensive and they worked with us despite our various (last minute) requests for additional things to do. The place looks amazing and we won’t use anyone else in the future! **★★★★ — CornerStone Homes, July 2021** > Courteous and professional! Shawn and his team arrived when he said they would and completed our project timely, while also taking care not to create a mess elsewhere. Now we have just what we wanted! **★★★★★ — janeverk, March 2021** > We had Pillar replace the siding on our house, taking it from T-1 looking cedar siding to Hardi lap and shake siding. Not only was the price very fair, but they commenced work without delay and finished in the timeframe promised. And most importantly, the end product looks amazing. All of the people working on the project were friendly, considerate and seemed genuinely happy to be here. I would definitely hire Pillar again for future projects. **★★★★★ — Dustin Baker, Dec. 2020** > Pillar built us a the new construction of our dreams. It was done very quickly, to our expectations and with great attention to detail. We would certainly choose them again for any future projects. **★★★★★ — HU-181480557, Nov. 2020** > Shawn & the entire Pillar team provided incredible service renovating our kitchen. The team was extremely professional. Communication was very clear. Everyone went the extra mile to address the few concerns that arose. We ended up with a dream kitchen, far exceeding our expectations. We hope to use Pillar Construction & Remodel again when we redo our bathrooms! **★★★★★ — Shelby, Oct. 2020** > Pillar Construction renovated my entire home and I couldn’t be more satisfied! I had just purchased the home & the next day Shawn’s crew was there to start demo. We tore down a wall to open up the kitchen to the family room, put in all new cabinets, counter tops, flooring, tile in the bathrooms, paint inside & out, plumbing, & electric fixtures. Everything came out better than expected. Shawn and his crew worked in a timely manner to get the job done and are also some of the nicest people. Although I wasn’t living at the house during the remodel, the crew kept the job site clean every time I stopped by. I can’t thank them all enough, will definitely be using Pillar for my next project! **★★★★★ — paige Ernst, July 2020** > The Pillar Construction team did a wonderful job renovating our small master bathroom. The project was initially delayed due to COVID-19, but once the Pillar team was allowed to begin work they got the renovation done in a quick and efficient manner. All workers that came into our house were quiet, respectful, and cleaned up after themselves. If we are ever in need of a renovation project in the future we will surely hire them again. **★★★★★ — Krissy Impey, June 2020** > This review is long overdue! In August of 2019, we purchased a home in Ponte Vedra Beach that was in need of a full interior and exterior update. Shawn and his crews tackled our home renovation with not even 2 weeks notice, and did an incredible job! They are professional, knowledgeable, honest & direct. This was our first home remodel project, and Shawn's guidance and input were invaluable throughout the process. We moved in just before the 2020 new year and couldn't be happier with our decision to work with Pillar and with our final product! **★★★★★ — Ginger Grayson, June 2020** > We are very pleased with our master bathroom remodel. The difference is amazing and truly reflects the vision we had for the space. The remodel included enlarging the shower, installing a free-standing tub, and updating all the tile and fixtures. > > Communication with Shawn and his team was easy. Our questions/concerns were addressed promptly and resolved to our satisfaction. We were kept informed as the work progressed, and the project was completed on time. **★★★★★ — Stephani Tyrance, May 2020** > Pillar Construction was amazing to work with and our house feels brand new. We were new to the area and purchased a house that needed lots of updates. After meeting with Shawn we had full confidence that our vision would be executed. We had good communication throughout the project, they handled our changes with ease, we were offered options that kept us within our budget, and our timeline was met. I highly recommend Pillar Construction. We are so happy with our remodel!!! **★★★★★ — Dan Fico, March 2020** > Excellent team, great work, and very fairly priced. Most important to us, Pillar was very accommodating to changes in both project scope and material throughout the project. We would not hesitate to hire them again. **★★★★★ — Jackie Caminero, March 2020** > Complete bathroom renovation. Outstanding customer service by all workers, of most importance was the outstanding ongoing updates provided by project manger! She kept us informed of schedule changes etc., and was extremely reliable. Will > Most definitely use again for future projects. Completed work is beautiful and we are very happy. **★★★★★ — HU-805567882, Oct. 2019** > We are more than pleased with the work done by the entire Pillar crew. From start to finish, their careful guidance, professionalism, and knowledge were appreciated. Our finished product is better than we imagined it would be. We love our renovations! We have, and will continue, to highly recommend Pillar. **★★★★★ — Marion Estes, Oct. 2019** > We put this project off for years, fearing we would run across another "professional" similar to the one who remodeled our master bath in 2007. No glaring problems, but some minor stuff which just did not sit well. > > We picked Pillar after watching them work on a house in our neighborhood which had a large oak tree fall in the geometric center of the house. Not a speed record on the work, but clearly thorough and professional. > Shawn Griffith, owner, came out and surveyed what we had and what we wanted. No fooling, descriptive, took notes and photos, measurements. This was a to the studs remodel of a 50+ sq ft bathroom, with ceiling work, plumbing, no item in the room would stay. > The process was very well laid out, with payment schedules, and an in house interior designer person to guide us through the selection process of tile, cabinetry, countertop, all aspects of the job. She proved markedly competent, and the ordeal was done in a few hours. We selected four different tiles and two stone surfaces. It looks great. We felt very well served. > The work teams to do the demolition, plumbing, dry wall, cabinetry, tile work, painting, etc. were all on time, competent at least, and careful about leaving any trash/mess. The Pillar teams have been carefully selected, and all are credits to the company. > We are pleased. Completely. > Our daughter is a MS Architect, licensed, and thoroughly approves of all the work and the quality of it. The first time she saw the heavy paper taped to the wood floor and the "zipper wall" at the door way she said "you have a very good contractor." **★★★★★ — Betty Carter, June 2019** > I want to let you know how much we are pleased with the work done at my house. The crew was clean, professional and always courteous. I will recommend Pillar Construction to all my family and friends without a hesitation. Pillar Construction workers takes pride in their work and strives to provide outstanding work. I am delighted with the results! I will certainly call on Pillar Construction for my next project. Lastly, working with Shawn Griffith was pleasant. He is direct, straightforward, honest, and polite. Thank you again **★★★★★ — Julie Krey, June 2019** > Pillar Construction renovated my beach condo including the kitchen, bathroom, flooring and painting. Shawn and his crew did an excellent job and were always courteous and respectful to me. They were able to complete the project within an 8 week timeframe taking into consideration that beach high rise condos are not the easiest as far as accessibility. Pillar Construction came through for me and I am very pleased with the quality of work and attention to detail. I would highly recommend them for your next remodel project! **★★★★★ — Stephen Watrel, March 2019** > I would highly recommend Pillar Construction. I hired them to renovate a bathroom in my condo, and they did an amazing job. They arrived on time, and their crew got the job done quickly and professionally. Their prices were very reasonable.

Shawn came in with his crew every morning to get them started and would follow up with them during the day. The crew was always courteous, timely and clean. This was a smaller job, but they did a larger bathroom remodel that turned out amazing. I would highly recommend Pillar. **★★★★★ — John Lammie, Dec. 2018** > From first meeting, Shawn Griffith, owner of Pillar Construction, promised not to be the cheapest nor the most expensive contractor, but to be most loyal to us and to the project, renovation of 1982 single story 2000SF 2 bath zero-lot line house into 2 story 2750SF with 2 masters and 3.5 baths. Superb translation of our ideas into reality coupled with experienced advice on project scope and finishing. Gracious and responsive customer focus, interactive and supportive with design and build refinements. Core Pillar crew is hardworking and detail oriented. Shawn guided us through complex permitting, and advocated for us to get variance to add sunroom to house on tiny lot. He maintained meticulous control of costs and made steady progress to achieve deadline to get us into house by thanksgiving. Beautiful integration of old and new sections of house. Neighbors love the finished product as great neighborhood addition. Shawn and Pillar team are professional, personable, and capable, expert problem solvers who completed this project as a delightful, beautiful and highly functional new home for us. **★★★★★ — Jim Hartman, Dec. 2018** > Our project was very extensive and complex. The Pillar team was very knowledgeable and professional. Stayed on budget and on time even though one of the crew members experienced a personal tragedy. I highly recommend Shawn. He knows what a project needs and gets it done. High level of integrity. **★★★★★ — mawaibel55, Dec. 2018** > The remodel project of my beachfront high-rise condo by the team at Pillar included moving the hot water heater and ac/heat air handler, raising the drop ceiling from 18” to 6”, laying 48” x 9” plank wood grain porcelain tile, installing new kitchen cabinets and granite countertops, removing popcorn texture from ceilings, repairing water damaged drywall, installing new lighting and painting. They professionally worked with the condo manager and within the HOA rules. > Throughout the project I felt that my questions, requests and suggestions were heard and respectfully addressed. Quality of work as well as getting the job done in a timely manner were top priorities. And to top it off, they are just nice people to work with. > I have and will continue to recommend Shawn Griffith and the team (Paul, Glen and Reese) at Pillar Construction. I am very pleased with my “new” elegant and modern condo. **★★★★★ — Charles Cofer, Dec. 2018** > We purchased a mid-century modern home that needed extensive remodeling. This included relocating the front entrance door, and introducing a more open floor plan. The open floor plan required the removal of approximately 22 feet of support walls--to be replaced with a large beam to support the roof trusses. Shawn and his group at Pillar came up with an innovative solution for installing the beam that left only a small portion of it visible in the room. The project also called for installing hardwood floors in the renovated areas. Pillar's sub contractor did a great job matching the wood and stain with the existing floors. Pillar was very good coordinating with its sub-contractors, and making sure they corrected anything not done just right. The end product is a modernized home that is faithful to the original style. Great job! **★★★★★ — Gene Carter, Dec. 2018** > From start to finish they were very informative and professional. They did an excellent job and will use them for any project at my home and rocomend to all my family members. **★★★★★ — James Cooke, Dec. 2018** > Shawn and his crew were the upmost professional contractors we have ever worked with. Shawn always communicating any issues or problems that came up with our remodel. Our home was practically destroyed by Hurricane Irma and we now have a more beautiful home, thanks to Pillar Construction. Shawn was patient as we worked through issues with our insurance company and remained professional throughout the whole ordeal. > We are very please with the outcome and his expertise when it came to deciding on materials for our home.. > James Cooke and Pat Madrid **★★★★★ — Nick Causey, Dec. 2018** > Pillar was great to work with and did a fantastic job with our home remodel. First off, Shawn was quick to get me the initial estimate and quote after our first walk through and was great with following up. He got the project started immediately once we moved forward and stayed on schedule (something that is rare in this industry). His guys Paul and Glenn were both fantastic with keeping on schedule and making sure everything was done to our satisfaction. My wife and I would definitely recommend using Pillar and plan to on a few more of our projects. A+++ all the way! **★★★★★ — Jon Semrau, Dec. 2018** > After bad damage from Hurricane Irma, multiple companies needed to be hired. We were very pleased with the roofing company we hired, disappointed with the remediation company, thought the window company did "okay", but we were EXTREMELY pleased with the job completed by the Reconstruction company. This reconstruction company was Pillar Construction and Remodel. > > I worked directly with Shawn Griffith (the owner), as well as a few of his top project managers. He and his crew not only assessed damages, and provided quotes, but they were all very honest with me as to what NEEDS to get done in order to do the job correctly. Since not all damage was covered by Insurance, I knew we'd have some out of pocket expenses, but I wanted to ensure the proper job was done, and that's exactly what Pillar recommended. > > After fielding several quotes from several companies, I felt most comfortable with going with Pillar, and I'm very glad we did. They were not the most expensive, but they definitely were not the cheapest. However, the old cliche "you get what you pay for" most definitely holds true when dealing with home reconstruction, so I'm very happy we chose quality and someone we felt provided top of the line honesty, integrity, and professionalism, rather than trying to save a few bucks by going with someone cheaper. > > Pillar rebuilt my fireplace, repaired and replaced a ton of ceilings, drywall, baseboards, and quarter rounds. They repaired outside stucco damage around fireplace chase/wall blend, and completely gutted and rebuilt (upgraded) the Guest Suite bathroom. They also upgraded light switches, installed new sink/garbage disposal, and installed new face on the fireplace. Freshly painted walls in 75% of interior, as well as completely repainted an entire exterior, and all completed under 10 weeks. > > The place feels brand new, and we couldn't be happier with the job Shawn Griffith and Pillar Construction, LLC have done for us. As soon as I have an opportunity, I will do my best to attach before/after pics, so that you can see for yourself the transformation of this home. The overall cost of project was in the $40-50K range, but there's little doubt that reconstruction Pillar was responsible for didn't help increase the home value by over $55-60K. **★★★★★ — Megan Fannin, Dec. 2018** > Pillar Construction are honest, responsive contractors. They have done several projects for us and we will hire them again for our next project. **★★★★★ — hector castaneda, Dec. 2018** > Shawn and his crew were great !!

We are beyond satisfied and wouldn’t hesitate to work with Pillar for any future needs. **★★★★ — Shannon Italia, Feb. 2018** > Shawn Griffith is very conscientious and keeps on top of the remodel project to make sure it is done right and in a timely manner. He's very helpful and easy to work with. We used Pillar Construction to to a complete remodel of a full bath and are very happy with the end product.

Quality work, professional, up front and honest are words I would use to describe Pillar Construction and Shawn **★★★★★ — Rob and Carole Giordano, Nov. 2017** > We hired Pillar to repair Hurricane Irma damage, the crews that worked on our house were professional, courteous, and did excellent work. We highly recommend them and would not hesitate to hire them again! **★★★★★ — Alina Howle, Oct. 2017** > We bought a fixer upper! Shawn and his team helped bring our vision to life! We never imagined it could really be done considering the house was straight out of 1980. From start to finish Shawn took care of all our needs and went above and beyond expectations! Would highly recommend Shawn and his team to all **★★★★★ — Blue Pineapple Homes, Sept. 2017** > I have used Pillar Construction for two home projects: full bath remodel and demo/construction of garage ceiling.

The multiple crafts that worked on our project were extremely professional, courteous, always open for Q&A and the craftsmanship exceeded our expectations. The project was finish on-time and within budget. When it came to project management/oversight, the project lead was outstanding. He was onsite daily making sure everything ran smoothly, again always open to answer any questions. Each day when each craft left, the project site was always cleaner than before they arrived. I highly recommend Pillar Construction for your next home improvement, I know I recommend them to all my friends. **★★★★★ — Fred Stapp, March 2017** > We remodeled our sunroom including new windows and doors, redid the floor, and made changes under the deck related to erosion and wood rot. Pillar did an excellent job and was responsive to any questions or problems. We have now used them 3 times and would do so again. **★★★★★ — cwellswilliams, Feb. 2017** > In our decision to downsize, my husband and I wanted to own an older home with character and make it into a comfy cottage. Shawn Griffith with Pillar Construction did just that. It was a big project with walls coming out for a bigger kitchen and the addition of a master suite. He brought the original wood floors back to their original beauty and we couldn't be happier with our cottage in the middle of the city. **★★★★★ — MACRINA ALCINDOR, Jan. 2017** > I hired Pillar Construction to do some repairs and remodeling to my home.

They are very professional, clean but most of all courteous of your home through out the remodeling process. Their estimate was correct the first time, which is not always the case with remodeling companies. Their work has created a home that we are proud of and help increase the value of the home significantly. I will highly recommend this company to anyone looking to remodel or build. **★★★★★ — Padma, April 2015** > Shawn is a very straight forward contractor who performs quality work at reasonable price. I was referred to him by my realtor and I am glad that he did. He is reliable and delivered the work as promised within the scheduled time. > We bought an older home with a lot of character but in need of a lot of rehab before we could call it our home. Shawn came in with recommendation as to how to make the house more functional without losing the charm of the house and not breaking the pockets either. All the repairs that were characteristic to an older home popped up through the rehab process which was stressful but Shawn handled them strategically, thus making it easier on us. > I would recommend hiring Shawn to anyone, anytime , eyes closed. **★★★★★ — juliezammit, April 2015** > Pillar Construction replaced two large French doors along with another door to our patio. Custom molding was installed to match the interior. The doors were painted as well. Our contractor came out to meet with us several times in order to offer us several options which allowed us to pick the best one. The doors are absolutely beautiful and make our formal living room and master bedrooms look newer and younger. Pillar's attention to detail was greatly noticed. This was a job well done and we would definitely use Pillar again for our next home project. **★★★★★ — colettenw, Dec. 2014** > This company does a top notch job. I have used them on several homes that have been remodeled, and have never been dissatisfied. Great communication skills. Even when unforeseen issues come up, they are great at problem solving. I would highly recommend them to anyone. **★★★★★ — tedslezak, Dec. 2014** > Pillar Construction and Remodel Company has provided to us a number of services, for which they have provided the direction for installation of wooden flooring, replacing a stove, plumbing, installing curtains, and replacing lighting fixtures. > > All their work was performed in an outstanding manner, for which we are most grateful to Shawn Griffith. Shawn insures that all the work is completed in a high quality manner. His sound guidance to us, the homeowner, has been a major asset, for which, we the homeowner are most grateful. > > The last major project was the installation of a GE Stove Top to include the electrical wiring with safety components. This latest work was another example of Pillar Construction's excellent work. **★★★★★ — 1bgunter, Dec. 2014** > Shawn Griffith was the general contractor for our bathroom redesign. He was excellent in this role. He accompanied us to building suppliers an provided advice when asked. He stayed on top of the project at all times and ensured that the completion was to our satisfaction. **★★★★★ — amandajaxbeachfl, Dec. 2014** > We have used Pillar for two renovations and are very happy with the outcomes. Our first renovation was kitchen, laundry, garage, roof, flooring, pavers. Our second renovation was master bedroom and master bath with master walk in closet addition. This included moving a load bearing exterior wall to gain new space for the bedroom and bath, and new attic trusses for new trey celing done with tonge and groove (BEAUTIFUL!!) We also replaced siding with Hardey board in the second reno. > Why Pillar earns a "5 STAR" rating from us: > \*Honest communication throughout the process > \*Timely delivery of construction projects > \*Stays within budget range unless owner requests upgrade > \*Manages subcontractors closely without compromise > \*Capable and reliable full time staff > \*Design team services available for choosing design elements > \*Transparent and fair cost/pricing provided throught project **★★★★★ — rneil10, Dec. 2014** > Pillar Construction did an outstanding job on our poolside cabana remodel at the beach, 400 square feet of the wow factor! Included is a kitchenette with custom cabinetry, marble counter top and accent lighting. We requested stacked river rock be used to wrap a pillar and also to be installed from floor to ceiling in the shower, it also was used as a chair rail in the small bath, challenging and time consuming but done perfectly. We used the tile flooring that mimics hardwood, our installer took the time to show and demonstrate better ways to lay the product so we would not have a glaring repeat pattern. A custom Murphy bed and cabinets were also installed. I could not be more pleased with the outcome. Shawn and his crew were reliable and on task. If there was a problem it was immediately dealt with and the project rolled on to ensure a satisfying completion date. I highly recommend Pillar Construction, they just completed a large tile project for us, and we plan to use them on another project in January. **★★★★ — mikezeta1, Dec. 2014** > The Project had repeated new costs due to structural change requirements and went way above budget, but everything met city code guidelines for a brand new, large 2-story deck with a new laundry room. Project turned out perfect and has impressed all who have seen it. Very good quality **★★★★★ — User, Nov. 2014** > The General Contractor, Shawn, provide us with the results we had in mind for our renovation. Too include adding a few nice extras. > Shawn is detail orientated and has a vision for the outcome. He scheduled the sub contractors timely but sometimes the subs decided otherwise. However, Shawn reacted quickly to get the subs back on track. > Overall, we are pleased with the renovation and would highly recommend Pillar Construction for any small or large remodel. **★★★★★ — ravdeen, Nov. 2014** > Not only did we hire Pillar to once, but we hired them twice! > > Thank you Pillar for coming in and modernizing our guest bath and make it functional, dry wall and carpet our family room, add a hutch to our kitchen, repaint the inside and out along with other miscellaneous things to give it a much needed sprucing and breath life back into the dated house. > > I’ve always heard that renovations are a pain and that they always go longer than expected and over budget. I can say this was not the case with our experience with Pillar construction. Shawn and his crew were professional, got projects done in the estimated time period, cleaned up after every project and on budget with no surprises at the end. > > All the renovations helped us sell our home for top value. We hired Pillar for a second time to update our new house. Pillar came in pulled out the old carpet, put down wooden floors, gave the dated fireplace and new modern look and extended our driveway. > > We will continue to use, and recommend Pillar Construction to all our friends and family. **★★★★★ — jcami62, Nov. 2014** > Awesome services received. Quality work at good price. On time and completed to satisfaction. Will definitely use again for home repairs/modifications.

A: The paint is Sherwin Williams AGREEABLE GRAY... thank you for the compliments **Q: My Husband & I can't agree on tile/hardwood - help!** *(in Design Dilemma)* Hi - attached is the layout of our first floor, we are doing new construction. We need to decide if the areas I colored in will be tile, hardwood or a combo of both. We have 2 kids 2 and under so we both want tile in the kitchen vs. hardwood as the hardwood will show wear & tear quicker and the kids are always spilling something! To make it flow better I want to keep the entire area I colored in tile. My husband prefers we keep the foyer hardwood and just tile the kitchen/mudroom. Thoughts and opinions please!! I know doing all hardwood in the kitchen will give a better flow to the family room but I really do like tile better. We haven't picked anything out yet so wanted to get some professional opinions on this! Thanks! A: Go with a plank tile that looks like wood :) For example: http://www.lumberliquidators.com/ll/s/wood-plank-tile-flooring http://www.daltile.com/inspiration-and-diy/wood-look-tile/wood-look-tile-flooring http://www.lowes.com/pl/Wood-look-tile/4294696460 **Q: What is the counter top material on the island?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: that is Black Velvet granite... --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
