## About

Catalyst Construction was formed to provide construction services to clients seeking exceptional craftsmanship and innovative approaches to solving design and building issues. With experience in remodeling and new home building, Catalyst is able to work with homeowners, architects, and designers to achieve the goals of any client.

It is always our desire to provide exceptional value on every project. “Value” is not a term synonymous with “lowest bid”, but instead refers to the relationship between the quality of the job and the cost at which it was delivered. We have uncompromising standards of craftsmanship and do not cut corners.  Instead we seek cost saving solutions by utilizing design creativity, installing durable products, and eliminating wasteful half-measures from shortsighted plans. We also rely on our knowledge of the trades to minimize delays thereby maximizing efficiency and keeping duration as short as possible. This efficiency allows us to offer a superior finish while retaining competitive pricing.

Based on a business model where traditional advertising isn’t necessary because the leads come in by way of client recommendation, Catalyst Construction hopes to make every project a sort of permanent business card. We strive to perform quality work with attention to every detail while working within the restrictions of each client’s budget.

### All 6 reviews

**★★★★★ — Becca Munson, Oct. 2017**

> Catalyst Construction remodeled our kitchen, dining and living room. They were able to listen to our needs and ideas to design a beautiful open space that is functional for our family. We are so appreciative of the quality of work!

**★★★★★ — Emily Robb, Oct. 2017**

> We hired Catalyst for a major remodel of our home.  Every step of the way we had great communication and responsiveness from their team.  Travis and Joe are always available for questions and concerns.  I love the fact that they are the owners of the company in addition to the project managers so they take all concerns seriously.  They are super easy to work with and flexible with changes to the schedule that we needed to make.
>
> I would absolutely hire them again and have referred them to numerous friends and neighbors.  They weren't the cheapest bid but were also not the most expensive.  I have to admit most of the cost over their bid was because of upgrades we requested. The work was high quality and any issues we had they fixed to our satisfaction.
>
> I highly recommend using Joe and Travis.  You won't be disappointed.

**★★★★★ — Peter Mohn, Oct. 2017**

> Catalyst was recommended to us from a friend who had a large 2nd story addition in Prairie Village.  Our project was one that a few contractors did not want to pursue but Travis and Joe were up to the challenge and delivered.  We added a 3rd floor to a 100 year old Farmhouse style house in Waldo.  We went from 3 and 1.5 to 5 and 3.5!!!  This included a new master bedroom and bath, walk in closets, updated bathrooms and new hardwoods as well as a completely remodeled open Kitchen with a large island.  The project took around 10 months to complete.  We love our new home and highly recommend Catalyst.

**★★★★★ — marilyn flook, Sept. 2017**

> The quality of project management, attention to detail, and outstanding customer service sets Catalyst Construction at the highest level of service.
>
> I would absolutely hire them again, and recommend them to any considering projects from large to small.

**★★★★★ — Nate Bunck, Aug. 2017**

> The Catalyst team did a great job on our kitchen and living room remodel.  Travis and Joe were a pleasure to work with and fielded questions promptly throughout the process.  The project was timely completed and the workmanship was good.  I would highly recommend them.

**★★★★★ — Rebecca Riden AIA Architect, July 2017**

> Catalyst was wonderful to work with on a Prairie Village kitchen renovation/ screen porch addition project. Client was thrilled! Thorough, professional, knowledgeable and skilled meant an easy and no stress  experience for the owner.   Happy client = Happy architect!

**Comment from Catalyst Construction:**

> Thanks Rebecca! You know we love working with you too!
