**★★★★★ — Florene Stenbock, Dec. 2018**

> Kole Mogel, of bSpoke Homes, transformed our 1978 house into a beautiful, high quality,  modern home. Kole was SO easy to work with, had great ideas when I needed them and was always professional.
> He gave me ideas concerning design and materials that helped me stay within budget. Kole was usually immediately available; I hardly got a text off to him before I had a reply. Kole's knowledge seems to spans all aspects of demolition and construction. We could not be happier with our new home!

**★★★★★ — julie strawiitz, Feb. 2016**

> Kole was the GC on the renovation of a master bath in our 1907 home.  We are very happy with both the finished job and the process of working with Kole.  Having done many renovations and even building a house we can say that this was by far the best experience we've ever had.  Kole was extremely helpful during the planning phase - even accompanied us to the store where chose the fixtures.  He also really understood the look we were going for - making suggestions that were right on target.  The quality of the work was excellent and it was on budget and on time.
>
> We would use Kole again without hesitation and recommend him to anyone.

**★★★★★ — youd\_brian, June 2015**

> As a former client, I must say that I am totally satisfied with the service and quality of Work that Kole Mogel and BSpoke Homes provided for myself and my family. Kole came in and in a month, remodeled our kitchen and bathroom, removed a large portion of a wall in the living room, coordinated all the necessary sub contractors for the job and finished up on time and right at budget. As a Real Estate professional I am always looking for good contacts that can get a job done right and cost effectively. Kole did both on my personal home and I have already recommended him to at least two of my clients who are considering doing renovations or remodels to the homes they will purchase.
>
> Brian Youd

**★★★★★ — Darren Haysom, Nov. 2014**

> Kole was great. We had seen previous work from his team at a friends house, who recommended him. We engaged him - and immediately enjoyed the working relationship. Kole was very level headed, helped us make some good decisions around our wants and budget, and allowed us to get the kitchen that we wanted, rather than just the one to live with.
>
> We appreciate his continued engagement throughout the project, and follow up after the work was completed. The team was never late, or tardy. They were conscious of keeping the living area clean, and   did some of the quality extras that you would expect others to leave as they were.
>
> We personally would recommend Kole and the Bspoke team to anyone. We are hoping to engage him again on future projects we may have.

**★★★★★ — Brian S, Aug. 2014**

> Working with Kole from BSpoke Homes was great from day one.  In addition to being one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet, his work was spectacular.
>
> Respect - Kole was always on time for meetings and cleaned the his work area after each day (this was very important to us as we were living in the house during the renovation).
>
> Design - The balance of creating an updated space in a 65 year old home allowed Kole to showcase his design abilities.  From his decision to utilize arched pass-throughs (prior, one was a standard door, the other a solid wall) to lacing hardwoods throughout the main level, the updated spaces didn't feel out of place in an older home.
>
> Construction - Kole's ability to create archways and open up walls while making it look like they have been that way since the house was built was phenomenal.  We couldn't be happier.
>
> Freedom - Going into to the remodel we had an idea of what we wanted.  Kole allowed our design ideas to come to fruition while using his professional knowledge to guide us towards the best decisions for the look and feel we were going for.
>
> Budget - Kole prides himself on giving an accurate estimate from the very beginning.  The numbers he gave us on the initial bid held true to the completion of the project.  There were a few minor adjustments/add-ons on our part, but the quality products Kole included in the initial bid allowed us to get nearly everything we wanted without being nickel and dimed for every upgrade.

**Comment from Bspoke Homes:**

> Thank you so much for your kind words Brian.  It was a pleasure working with you and Carolyn and our hope is that you will truly embrace your new kitchen and utilize it for years to come as you settle into your cozy home!

**★★★★★ — lancenelson, Aug. 2014**

> We hired Kole to build our custom home in Eagle, Idaho. Kole and his team were very professional throughout the process and responded quickly to any questions and concerns we had. We were not the easiest clients to work for as we requested an abnormal amount of change orders. Kole did a good job putting up with us and we ended up with a beautiful home. Construction was completed on schedule and within the agreed upon budget. We would highly recommend Kole and bSpoke homes to anyone looking to remodel or build a new custom home.

**Comment from Bspoke Homes:**

> Thank You Lance for your kind words. We enjoyed working with you and Susan and hope you enjoy your home for many years to come!

**★★★★★ — amychoate, Nov. 2013**

> We hired Kole to do a full remodel of our family's kitchen. He was fantastic from start to finish. He was able to take our ideas and translate them into a beautiful, family friendly kitchen. He has an eye for detail!
>
> I appreciate how he was able to keep us on budget, but we never felt like we were having to cut any corners.
>
> Even though a remodel can be tough on a family with kids, he made it a low stress event. He cleaned the kitchen area every night and was respectful  of the rest of our house. Even our dogs loved him!
>
> We will be using Kole for our bathroom remodel next year. I won't even bother getting other estimates. I know I will get the best result working with BSpoke Homes.

**★★★★★ — gkwescott, Nov. 2013**

> We plan to use BSpoke Homes again and have already recommended them to seven friends.  Having Kole and Howard working in our past home and then gutting and renovating our new home had me completely at ease.  They are the first and only contractors I have given total access to my home and then headed off to work.  Their work is beautiful and Kole's eye for color and detail made choosing out ump-teen tiles and grout colors easier than I can say.  On time, on budget and always available when I called, these guys earned a perfect 10!

## Community Q&A

**Q: GFI near water source** *(in Electrical Wiring)*

Back round. My son just moved into new apartment, his first time away. He was going through move in check list. He called me on video call and showed me around. I noticed two issues. No GFI in outlet near kitchen sink (about 6&quot; away) just regular outlet. One of the two bathrooms has a regular outlet and one has GFI. He did call office about that because it's a safety issue so wanted to let them know right away. Office said they will send person to check it out on Wednesday when they come to complex on their regular day there.My husband seems to think it's ok with the kitchen sink outlet to not have a GFI, but not the bathroom should have one....I think both should have GFI.We are in Minnesota if that makes any difference. What is code for outlets near water source?

A: Is there a gfci in the kitchen?  Current Electrical code requires the kitchen outlets to be on a GFCI. Not every outlet has to have its own GFCI. As long as the outlet you are talking about is de-energized when the kitchen GFCI is tripped, then that “regular” outlet is indeed on the GFCI leg of the circuit. 
In addition, it is very common to pull one 20 AMp bathroom circuit that goes to a bathroom, place the GFCI in that bathroom, and then run to the other bathroom(s) outlets off of that GFCI. Long and short, trip the GFCI in the one bathroom, off other bathroom deenergizes, both are GFCI protected.

**Q: 36" Range with or without griddle?** *(in Appliances)*

I am looking at a couple of deals on 36&quot; ranges in my area and one has a stainles steel griddle and one does not.  I've never had a built in griddle and I'm sort of intrigued so I am curious whether folks that have a griddle like it, hate it, or somewhere in between?

A: Personally, we use ours all of the time.  They do get a bit dirty if you don't stay on top of it, and ideally, whatever range you are looking at comes with a cover that can be put in place when not using it to ensure you aren't looking at the griddle that will get seasoned where it is a S.S. one.  We cook pancakes, bacon, meat for tacos, chicken, grilled cheese, warming tortillas......essentially, just about anything.  When they are allowed to heat up, they hold more heat than a traditional frying pan, so when you are searing, don't have as much temperature drop when placing the meat on it.  You can tell, at our house with 4 kids, we are fans of the griddle!

**Q: How should I fix negative slope?** *(in Landscape Design)*

My front yard slopes towards the house and basement window. I’d love some advice on cheapest way to fix it: do I need to install a window well and add soil around to bring up to higher level? should I lay cement in front of window? put a retaining wall to stop water/soil sliding down from neighbour’s side?

A: It appears the soil is already higher than would typically be allowed by code at the house (generally 6&quot; clearance from soil top to bottom of siding material).  Typically, code/inspectors are looking for a minimum of 5% grade for the first 5' with a 2% thereafter.  If you are essentially flat or going up hill from the edge of your house, you may have to dig down at that 5' mark (or further depending on a myriad of factors (yard size, landscape design, etc) and put in a small retaining wall that will allow you to get the correct grade away from the house.  It is common to see what you are suggesting with regards to putting a window well to allow you to raise the soil at the house and often this can be a good compromise and in some cases is very difficult to avoid.  If you are looking for a quick fix, it would be better to have soil that grades away from your foundation and be technically to close to your siding than to have a negative grade and water infiltrating your basement or crawl space.

**Q: Pro Painters taking about a month to complete job** *(in Paint)*

ey guys! My husband and I hired a professional painter and his team to paint some rooms in the new place were moving into - they arent painting the full interior, just three bedrooms, the respective three bathrooms, and the kitchen - but we’re facing a bit of a dilemma now. It totalled about $8,900 and they began working on the 17th of September.

Fast forward, it’s now October 5th, and I was notified that the job probably wouldn’t get done until the end of NEXT week which would bring it to basically a month since they started. This wouldn’t be as frustrating if it wasn’t throwing off the timeline of us getting moved in drastically ( we wanted to hire a cleaning service to do a deep clean of the place before we moved in since the old owners left it without one being done and obviously something like that is necessacary in areas like the bathroom, kitchen, etc.) and we have to be out of our current place and all moved in in about three days. He told us we’d have to just work around the rooms that aren’t completed, but seeing as the bathrooms and the kitchen are those areas it’s going to be difficult to get situated around that comfortably. 

There were random issues during the job as well - a bedroom turning out a bright purple instead of a taupe, the bathroom getting painted in the wrong color (Behr’s Vanilla Milkshake is yellow, while PPG’s Vanilla Milkshake is a taupe-y color. Easy mistake, I understand, but we specified PPG for that exact reason and it was overlooked it seemed when the paint was being ordered). Both these issues were later resolved, but with a lot of defensiveness and lack of apology on their end but we were happy that it was taken care of in the end.)

Long story short, have you ever had getting rooms painted take about a month to complete? This is our first time hiring professionals for something like this so we have nothing else to compare it too. The payments are still being requested as normal, and the touch-up and cleanup portion has yet to be done with uneven lines, splotches, colored paint on white trim, so the house doesn’t feel move-in ready even though we now have no choice. If this timeline is a very typical timeline then we’ll just make sure to factor in a month for future jobs, and if it isn’t, how would you guys have handled something like this? Apologies for the long read, and thank you in advance!

A: It typically takes about 5-7 working days to do kitchen cabinets depending on the size and condition of the existing kitchen.  It sounds like as much as anything (and unfortunately, it is more typical than it should be), they have not done as well as perhaps they could with regards to communicating with you their timeline.  Some contractors will jump on a project relatively quick to lock it in, and then you are in a situation where you are at, where you have paid them money already (I'm assuming), and end up playing the game of when do I pull the plug on these guys and move onto someone else if they don't follow through.  And, when that happens, it rarely goes well and difficult to find someone else to come in and &quot;fix&quot; the previous persons work.

Bottom line, making the assumption the house is of average size 1500-3500 square feet, and the there are no crazy amounts of millwork, It would normally take one day to remove switch plates, plug plates, HVAC covers, blinds, etc), doors, hinges, knobs for the size you are talking (assuming they are spraying if you are redoing doors and millwork) and prep as required for a couple person crew.  Second day, cover as required and spray primer.  Bondo/sand if required (new construction and repaints typically have a fair amount of additional prep after primer).  Day 3, spray all millwork/Doors.  Day 4 tape and mask millwork and spray walls.  Day 5, tape off walls for ceiling, and spray out ceilings.  Put doors, switch plates, blinds, etc back on.  One week for that portion of the job.

If they were there start to finish without breaks, it would take approximately 2 weeks based on typical conditions.

**Q: Would you complain about this countertop install?** *(in Building a Home)*

Our home we our building is finally almost complete. Last week the countertops were installed and I am so upset. I’m not sure if I’m being too picky or not? Either way I know that I will not be able to walk near the kitchen without my eyes going straight to the island countertop. We are building with a big-name builder but because of the market craziness of the last year big-name builders in our area are breaking contracts left and right and then turning around and reselling the houses to different buyers for a couple hundred thousand dollars more than the original price. The contract says that neither builder nor buyer needs a reason to terminate the contract. The contract does not state that the island will/will not be one slab or multiple. I actually called the manufacturer to make sure that there were slabs on hand and large enough for our island. They told me that yes in deed we can get a slab of courts that will fit our island without having to get multiple pieces.What do you think? Would you risk complaining and demand one slab? Or suck it up?

A: In looking up the silestone jumbo slab, it’s right at 5’2” wide if I’m doing my math correctly.  That gives them essentially zero tolerance for fabrication based on the stated island size.  Most fabricators in my experience aren’t looking to be that close with a slab prior to fabrication. Would appear more lack of communication rather than specifically trying to save money.

**Q: Shower wall subway tile falling off before grout** *(in Bathrooms)*

Hello! I am curious if one tile falling off the wall/thin-set before grout is applied is “normal”. Our Builder warranties their work/their sub’s work so I know they’d want it to be right too just trying to have an understanding of what is and isn’t normal!!

A: Discuss it with your builder/contractor.  Chances are there are other tiles that don't have full coverage.  It would be unfair to say all tile layers get 95% thinset coverage in wet areas on all tiles.  The right side of the wall where the tile fell looks like the tile fully set, but clearly the left side isn't.  

Bottom line.

They either used the wrong trowel size for the particular tile OR
the thinset glazed over before they got the tile set on the wall after combing it in.
