Especially appreciated their willingness to weave in our modifications as the construction process played out and their feedback on design choices. Would recommend to others in the area. **★★★★★ — Patti Rambasek, Dec. 2019** > We feel very fortunate that a friend recommended Harte Remodels to us for our kitchen and master bath project. Since we began the project in June, we’ve heard countless horror stories about contractors. John and his crew were totally professional. They were on the job every day which we’ve learned can be unusual. Their work was of superior quality which gave us confidence to expand our project to include two more bath rooms, a powder room and laundry room. Living in a construction site for four months was not as stressful as it could have been because John and his crew were so pleasant and respectful of our privacy and comfort. One of the many things we appreciated about John was his contribution to the overall design. The end result exceeded out expectations. > Thank you, Harte-Remodels! **Comment from Harte Remodels, LLC:** > Patti, It was a pleasure working with you and Rik and we really appreciated your involvement in the projects. Enjoy your newly renovated home for many years to come! > John & Crew **★★★★★ — Donna Shaner, Nov. 2018** > Harte Remodels turned my tired outdated kitchen to a showpiece. Erin and John are very easy to work with, knowledgable and meticulous in construction. I will use them again for another major remodel we will do next year. **Comment from Harte Remodels, LLC:** > Thanks for your wonderful review, Donna! We're so glad you're enjoying your new, beautiful kitchen and we look forward to doing more work with you soon. **★★★★★ — Gevony Williams, April 2018** > John and his team were a pleasure to work with and we absolutely love our newly renovated home! They understood the vision we had for our space and only enhanced it with their knowledge and expertise. We were not local during the renovation, however John was present everyday overseeing the project to completion. He and his team provided wonderful design services and guidance throughout the entire process. They were also very responsive to phone calls and emails, which was extremely important to us. We would highly recommend Harte Remodels and are thankful for our time spent working with them! **Comment from Harte Remodels, LLC:** > Thanks for the great review, Gevony, and for trusting us with the design and renovations to your new home. We hope you and your family have years of comfort and enjoyment in those spaces! **★★★★★ — Mullet Cabinet, Dec. 2017** > I’ve worked with Harte Remodels a few times and they are a great company to work with. They we're always friendly, personable, and progressive in there thinking on design. **★★★★★ — Stylish Banker, Oct. 2017** > We hired Harte to remodel our kitchen and two bathrooms. We are delighted. The quality of the work and the care and attention to little details was great. They offered plenty of practical advice for what would be good choices and coordinated all of the design and buying for us. Follow through and accuracy are good. The project was on a compressed timeline to facilitate our move into our home and they got it done. Personally, they are decent people and easy to work with. We are glad to recommend. **★★★★★ — markomeyer, Nov. 2016** > We had a large basement finished by Harte Remodels. They did an amazing job and were a pleasure to work with. John's team is friendly and trustworthy. > > The space was split into a large living space with fireplace, a full bar, game room, gym, full bath, and storage area (and an outdoor TV!). John met with us several times to go over the design and provided detailed drawings and prints. There was no question or ambiguity to what we were getting. John is very knowledgeable of all phases of the construction. The end result is amazing and I would absolutely recommend Harte Remodels for any home remodel. It's not easy to find a contractor that is reasonably priced, maintains a schedule and most importantly produces high quality work. In fact, I have additional projects coming up in the future that I would like to use them for. > > Thanks, > > Mark Meyer **★★★★★ — Shan Gao, May 2016** > My husband and I bought an older Victorian House with 5 bedrooms, but only 2 full bathrooms, and no bathrooms on the first floor. We decided to go with John Harte and his remodeling team to put in a powder room in the first floor and an en suite modern bathroom and closet for the master bathroom. John and his team did a great job. We are very pleased with the final products. **Comment from Harte Remodels, LLC:** > Thanks for the great review. It was a privilege to work with you on the design and build for your new powder room, master bathroom and walk in closet. We hope you will enjoy your new spaces for many years to come. **★★★★★ — pink3happy, Dec. 2015** > Professional and thorough! I bought a house that needed SO much work...so much more than I had ever done before. After getting proposals from a few firms, I selected Harte Remodels. John was thorough, trustworthy, and kept me informed of all along the way. He had great ideas, and helped me with design and materials suggestions as well as and changes and options. Quality workmanship and a great team ! **Comment from Harte Remodels, LLC:** > Thank You for taking the time to write this amazing review! > We all appreciated your generosity and patience throughout the remodeling process and hope you and your family will enjoy your new 'forever' home for many years to come. **★★★★★ — vazzo, Dec. 2014** > John is quite a craftsman. He transformed two ramshackle closets on the third floor into a beautiful bath retreat. Also, we found John to be very reliable and easy to work with. He worked only on our project and showed up every day until it was complete. We were so pleased we are waiting on John to do a few smaller projects on our home, we would not trust anyone else. > > Holly and Jim Vazzo **Comment from Harte Remodels, LLC:** > Many thanks for the stellar review! > Thank you for allowing us to implement our design ideas and for entrusting us with the remodel of your third floor space - it was quite a disruption to you and you were so accommodating throughout the whole process. **★★★★★ — steelerfans, Dec. 2014** > We are very pleased with the job that John and his crew have done. We had our basement finished including a large bar, gym, media room and full bath. It was a big job and very involved. John took his time to do quality work rather than rush just to get the job done. John was very honest and his crew was very polite and respectful to our home. They were here everyday and didn't jump back and forth between jobs. We definitely recommend him and would hire him again for any future remodels. **Comment from Harte Remodels, LLC:** > Thanks again for being so great to partner with. We look forward to working with you again soon. Enjoy! **★★★★★ — etainter, Dec. 2013** > We have thoroughly enjoyed working with John Harte on the renovation/remodel of our home. We could not be happier with the newly added second floor bathroom and closet, and completely renovated bedrooms, downstairs bathroom, living room and kitchen. John has been very professional and excellent to work with while we have been remote to the area. John provided great guidance and support to our renovation with classic yet modern upgrades to our much older home. While most would find renovating a home from a far stressful, John has been timely in his communication throughout the entire span of the project. We would highly recommend John for any project for any style of home. **Comment from Harte Remodels, LLC:** > many thanks for the wonderful review - looking forward to finishing up and getting you settled in so you can really appreciate your newly remodeled home ## Selected projects - [Bright Modern Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bright-modern-kitchen-pj-vj~2657353) - Location: Sewickley Heights, PA - Photos: 10 - Description: A complete remodel of kitchen and surrounding rooms including breakfast room, study and family room - featuring horizontal quartersawn oak frameless cabinetry, wolf/sub-zero appliances, led lighting and some structural reconfiguration. - [Vintage meets Modern](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vintage-meets-modern-pj-vj~2657321) - Location: Edgeworth, PA - Photos: 7 - Description: Expansion of existing master from 50 to 100sqft - Add double sinks, oversized curbless shower, radiant heated flooring, expanded entryway - [60's Kitchen/Family Room Reclaims Mid Mod Roots](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/60-s-kitchen-family-room-reclaims-mid-mod-roots-pj-vj~2219044) - Location: Sewickley, PA - Photos: 20 - Description: This open-plan kitchen/family space was cut in half by an ugly peninsula - obstructing flow and highlighting clutter, dirty dishes and wasted space.

A: This incredible tile is made by Syzygy, the tile is Sygma Quasar and the color is Verdigris. **Q: Does anyone know what kind of flooring this is?** *(in Photo Questions)* Hello, Do you know know what kind of flooring this is and what the finish is? Thanks, Megan A: Megan - flooring is Bella Cera Zurich in Maple with a Satin Finish. Widths are random - 4"/5"/6" throughout the house. **Q: What is the height of the apron on the sink?** *(in Photo Questions)* I am doing a remodel and only have 6 3/4 inches to work with for a farmhouse sink.
