We have been designing and remodeling clients' dream spaces for over 20 years and have developed many long-term relationships with our clients that have spanned our entire time in business. We believe your project is unique to you and deserves a highly detailed process to meet your goals and bring it to life.

When you work with a detail oriented design-build firm like ours, your priorities become ours - from the investment/budget goal of the project to the most finite finishes such as how the accessories match the larger finishes of the space to tie the whole project together. Our design team begins the process that our craftsmen transform into reality - with your input and concerns listened to and accounted for every step of the way.

We have been serving St. Louis metro, Richmond Heights, St. Louis City, St. Louis County, Belleville, IL, Swansea, Maryville, Fairview Heights, O'Fallon, Edwardsville, Collinsville, Glen Carbon, Waterloo, Columbia &amp; surrounding areas since 1993.

>
> Throughout the construction phase, Rob worked with us daily, seamlessly scheduling sub-contractors, making sure each one did quality work in a timely manner.  He also kept us informed each and every day and was always concerned that were satisfied with that day's efforts.  Even as we added some changes through the project, Rob always greeted us with a smile and accommodated our needs.

> Thank you so much for your kind words! We really enjoyed working with you both! Looking forward to running into you before a card's game this summer :)

**★★★★★ — Jen M, March 2018**

> J.T. McDermott proved to be the best decision we made for our remodel.  Our inspiration and suggestions were valued during the envisioning process.  Our drive for clean, environmentally conscience, and low maintenance products were honored.   The construction crew was professional and excelled at their expertise.   The overall experience and final product was better than expected.

**Comment from J.T. McDermott Remodeling:**

> Jen and Chris,
>
> Thank you for your kind words, the entire team greatly appreciates them! It was a pleasure to work with you and to be a part of your transforming the kitchen and first floor. We hope you have a great summer enjoying the views from the new space!

**★★★★★ — Angie Rataj, Dec. 2017**

> JT McDermott Remodeling completed a kitchen remodel for our new, old house. We are thrilled with the final project and grateful to have had trustworthy professionals guide us through the entire process. We worked primarily with Megan Gerdes (for design) and Rob Ledee (on-site lead contractor). Both were accessible, easy to talk to and offered solutions to the requests we had. Megan created the digital mock-up to allow us to visualize the final product, sourced my ideas, and offered suggestions that stayed true to the house, but also were in my tastes. Rob juggled the sub-contractors schedules and main construction tasks with open communication, and respect to our family while living through the renovation. We had a significant support-wall removed with our remodel, and we were not nervous at all about the process, and care that went into removing almost 100yr old bricks. The peace of mind that came with working with JT McDermott was worth every penny! We would not hesitate to recommend them!

**★★★★★ — Robert Ginter, July 2017**

> Work done: Room addition and house upgrades.  Josh and his Team are 100% the real deal!!!!!   They will perform well beyond your expectations and do so in the most professional manner.  Mark Schmidt the Lead Craftsman assigned to our job was all that anyone could ask for....I'm not kidding.  Mark is a master at home remodeling as well as the most down-to-Earth individual you'll ever meet.  He's so easy to work with and you can tell his Team enjoys working with him.  Add to that his workhorse attitude of getting the job done as well as getting the job done right and you have the perfect combination of skills and demeanor of the person you want doing the work on your home.  It's been over a year since the project was completed and my wife and I enjoy our new room and upgrades every single day.  Our home is so much more opened and we so enjoy the brightness of the outside coming into our home.   The materials and workmanship have held solid...every thing is 100% perfect.  It looks and feels great.  All guests to our home have loved it and were extremely impressed with the project and its results.  The following passage was written shortly after the work was completed and I stand by these words today;  "If you want the job done right with the best construction that can be had, then you need to go with J.T. McDermott. Everyone has heard the saying, "You get what you pay for." You pay to get the job done right and J.T. McDermott delivers. Their team was filled with professionals and they treated every aspect of the construction project as if they were working within their own homes. They went the extra mile to ensure our home was treated with respect and ensured our belongings were safe and protected from harm and dust. We love our new addition and the new floor tile throughout our home. J.T. McDermott nailed it!!!!!"  Bottom-line: I'll use J.T. McDermott for all my remodeling work.  Give them a chance....They will impress!!!  Bob

**Comment from J.T. McDermott Remodeling:**

> Thank you for your kind words about the team and your experience. We really enjoyed working with you on your project and it is one I am proud to drive by on a regular basis!
>
> All the best!

**★★★★★ — Isabel Ososki, May 2017**

> The entire McDermott team was outstanding throughout the process of our extensive remodeling project, and we couldn't be happier with our final results. We were impressed with the attention to detail and support we received in all phases of planning, implementation, and completion.  From the very beginning Ron Mifflin and Megan Gerdes "heard us"  and worked above and beyond to make our vision a reality throughout the extensive planning period.
> A strength of McDermott is the in-house designer.  Megan was with us every step of the process and made picking out materials for our new spaces seamless and enjoyable.  She provided excellent support, suggestions, and advice.
> Our Lead Craftsman Rob Ledee was excellent.  His work ethic and attention to detail was phenomenal and beyond our expectations.  He kept us constantly informed and never left for the day without cleaning the remodeling space, giving us a progress report, telling us the plans for the next day, and asking what he could do for us before he left.  McDermott has an excellent online customer program that keeps an up-to-date calendar and resource for us, but to be honest we rarely had to use it because Rob kept us so well informed.  The trade partners McDermott used to support our project were also excellent.  Rob provided excellent leadership with the myriad of people involved in every phase of the construction.
> We were also very impressed that the owner, Josh McDermott, took such an active role in the process and assuring our satisfaction. McDermott's 'after project' support is also reassuring and a strong selling point.
> From the office support staff to the president of the company McDermott did not disappoint!  We have already had them back for another smaller project and will not hesitate to use them again.  Anyone considering a remodeling project would certainly get a thumbs-up referral from us!   Job well done!

**Comment from J.T. McDermott Remodeling:**

> Isabel and Ed,
>
> Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a joy to watch your project move from a concept and dream to a reality! Seeing Ed in his room with the wood ceiling and the smile on his face was just priceless.
>
> We appreciate your continued business and most importantly, have enjoyed the relationship we have built with you. Hope you both are doing well and the same goes for the pups!
>
> Best,
>
> Megan, Rob, Ron, Josh and the entire McDermott Remodeling team.

**★★★★★ — \_tumbleweed\_, Nov. 2016**

> We had the first floor of our two story home remodeled.  This included a kitchen, dining room, living room, laundry room, powder room and hallway.  We had all the windows and exterior doors replaced as well.  This was a large project and it was completed in a very timely fashion, with all project deadlines met.  From the initial estimate to the walk through at the end, everyone with JT McDermott Remodeling were wonderful.  They're very knowledgeable, respectful and professional.  Ron, our Project Estimator, helped us stay on budget and even presented us ways we could save money by offering alternate options. Brittany, our Project Designer, made the material selection process very easy and gave us confidence in our selections.  Rob, our Project Manager, was on site daily, always kept us informed and took care of any questions or concerns we had.  We lived in our home during the process.  The workers kept their mess to a minimum and cleaned up every day.  We are extremely happy with our new first floor.  If you're looking for quality work at a fair price with trustworthy and friendly people, you should look at JT McDermott Remodeling.

**Comment from J.T. McDermott Remodeling:**

> Thank you for you review! We really enjoyed working with you on the project and can't wait to get all the photos up on our pages. We hope Thanksgiving this year is amazing in the new space!!

**★★★★★ — mrwalkers, Oct. 2016**

> We are very pleased with our new master bath. God is good. A friend at church referred us saying Mcdermott does remodeling the right way.  Our 25 year old house needed to be  safer as we aged.  We had a small tub/shower combo and worn vanity and toilet. We wanted a shower only as we don't take baths. The process of a major renovation was scary  what if when they opened up the walls (floor electrical) there were problems?  The estimated range took all of this into account.  The attention to detail & design advice was spot on. We loved working with project manager Dennis. He kept us fully informed every step of the way, addressed all concerns and or offered suggestions or solutions. When the work was done for the day it was as if they hadn't been here  they were sensitive to our schedules   The promised time frame was met.

**★★★★★ — freifam, Oct. 2016**

## Community Q&A

**Q: Recessed wall niche trim?** *(in Photo Questions)*

May I ask how you did the trim? I find that cultured marble niches have very limited recessed niche design and I haven't see the type you have with the wide "frame" around each niche. Thank you.

A: The niches are either from Onyx Collection or from CMI in Millstadt, IL. Onyx ships nationwide, CMI does not unless we are mistaken.

**Q: Kitchen Tap and Filter** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where did you get the matching tap and filter. I'm having trouble finding a beautiful filter tap that matches with a kitchen tap. Is this available in Aust? Thanks so much

A: Hello, it is a Delta product, not sure of their availability in Australia as we only work with them here in the US. Best of luck!

**Q: Shower walls and base** *(in Photo Questions)*

Is this whole shower done in cultured marble, including the floor and what is the approximate cost?

A: The shower is in a cultured marble with a Cambria accent at the top and for the tub deck. As for the cost, do you mean just the materials or a similar type of job?
A great resource for pricing can be found on Remodeling Magazine's Cost vs Value report, here is the link: http://www.remodeling.hw.net/cost-vs-value/2017/

Have a great day!

**Q: Floors** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me what type of floors these are?

A: Hello, 

Thank you for your question! The floors are Chaparral 7&quot; planks by Hallmark and are the Tackroom Hickory color. Here is a link to their website: http://hallmarkfloors.com/hallmark-hardwoods/chaparral-hardwood-collection/  

Have a great day!

**Q: dimensions** *(in Photo Questions)*

hi just wondering what the dimensions of the wetroom are? thank you

A: Hi Paula, 

Thank you so much for your question! The room dimensions were 4' x 4' 6&quot;. It was a former closet and was inspired by our clients' frequent trips to Europe where wet rooms are much more popular. We utilized a wall hung toilet and other unique features to help make the space feel as large as possible!
Have a great day!

**Q: Where can I find the mosaic tile?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hello! 
Thank you for your question and sorry for the delay. The mosaic tile is Oceanside Muse Custom Blend. Blend was Torrey Pines 15%, Green Flash 15%, Truffle Irid 20%, Harvest Irid 40%. The liner is Oceanside Casa Baby Liner.  
Here is the link to locate a dealer near you: http://www.glasstile.com/buy-glass-tile-near-me.aspx
Thanks again and let us know if you have any other questions or need any tips!
Best,
Josh McDermott
