I live out of the area and needed re-carpeting to prepare my condo for sale. A relative suggested I call Ami Watson. From my first contact with her, the process was efficient and responsive to my needs. Ami inspected the condo herself and noticed an odor and a remedy. I needed her expertise to help choose a carpet style and color; she mailed me samples of her top recommendations and her top suggestion was perfect. > > Not having done this sort of work for quite awhile, I didn’t know what to expect cost-wise. I had another estimate from a Seattle-area carpet store, and quickly realized Hi Hat was at least competitive if not cheaper, for better and more personalized help. > > The invoices are itemized, payments online are easy. > > I couldn’t be more pleased! My highest recommendation. **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you so much, Jonathan. I look forward to working with you again! ### All 12 reviews **★★★★★ — Jamie, May 2026** > Ami and the team at Hi Hat Installations were absolutely incredible to work with. From start to finish, Ami was very communicative, clear, and completely transparent about the entire process. > > The project was completed on time and on budget, with zero hidden surprises. We absolutely love our beautifully refreshed basement and couldn't be happier with the quality of the work. > > We would 100% work with Ami again for future projects and highly recommend Hi Hat Installations to anyone looking for a reliable, professional team! **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you so much, Jamie! It was a pleasure to work with you and your family! I love how the basement turned out; it's a totally different space. So much brighter and a warm feeling. Thank you again! Ami **★★★★★ — Anne Tibbetts, Jan. 2026** > We used Hi Hat installations to install new counters and tile in our kitchen. We are super happy with the results and highly recommend this company. Ami is super responsive, is great to consult with, and completed all work within the expected time line and budget. The results are fantastic and we are so happy with our updated kitchen!!! **★★★★★ — Aster Wardhani, March 2025** > We had a fantastic experience working with HiHat Remodeling! Ami is incredibly easy to work with and has a great eye for design. She picked the perfect colors for our cabinets and walls, transforming our space beautifully. What really stood out was her flexibility—she adapted seamlessly to changes and unexpected challenges, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend her for any remodeling project! **★★★★★ — Erika, Oct. 2024** > We partnered with Hi Hat Remodeling to remodel our daylight basement. It was our first time doing any sort of home remodel and Ami and her team exceeded our expectations. They set expectations effectively, were transparent (and accurate) in their estimated costs, and communicated each step of the way. We love our new basement (including leveling, a new bathroom, a fireplace removal, and a new ceiling) and would trust them with other projects in the future. **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you for taking the time to write this review; it means a lot to us! I'm so glad we exceeded your expectations, and we look forward to working with you in the future! **★★★★★ — Jeff Backschies, Nov. 2023** > We recently worked with Hi Hat on a project that included kitchen remodeling, some custom built-in cabinetry, and hardwood floor refinishing. > > We are so pleased with how everything turned out! Ami from Hi Hat is great to work with - she does a great job of communicating what is happening at each step and is always willing to help figure out the best solution to make sure you're happy with the outcome. Every project will hit some bumps along the way and what is important is how your contractors react when stuff happens -- Ami and team made sure that all work was done great even when it meant redoing some work. > > Our project wasn't huge, but the commitment and partnership Hi Hat offered made us feel like it was their most important project. Our house is old and some of what we were looking to achieve took creativity, problem-solving and real craftsmanship to get right and they succeeded. To top it off, at the end of the project, Hi Hat gave us a custom-made cushion with perfect colors to fit the bench they created for us -- an unexpected gift that definitely wasn't in scope! > > We definitely recommend Hi Hat! **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Hi Jeff, thank you so much for the review. We loved working with you and Jen and are so happy with how everything turned out. The kitchen is beautiful and the built-ins turned out so great! **★★★★★ — Ajay, July 2023** > I just finished working with Hi Hat remodeling to refinish my hardwood floors that were pretty worn out. Ami came out promptly and explained very well the options I had for refinishing my floors. Some sections needed to be replaced and Ami got me a detailed quote within a day and answered questions to my satisfaction. Her team started the job on the day they we agreed on and finished it on time. The refinished floors looked amazing. I would hire Ami and her team again for any more wood refinishing work. The prices were fair and reasonable. **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you, Ajay! Now your hardwood floors look amazing and are protected for years to come! **★★★★★ — marlazone39, July 2023** > We just had our hardwood floors refinished and couldn't be happier with the result. Ami Watson of Hi Hat Remodeling is a true pleasure to work with. She kept us informed all along and was very responsive and helpful. Her wonderful design sense helped us decide the finish that would work best for our space. And her pricing is right as she doesn't have the overhead of a storefront, so that she can be more competitive. I couldn't have been happier with Ruslan, the refinisher; he was meticulous in his work, accommodating, and kept us informed. The floors look amazing. I highly recommend Hi Hat Remodeling for anyone looking to redo your floors, put in new flooring, or need a bath or kitchen remodel; Ami and Patrick are real pros and will ensure you are well taken care of! **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you! It was a pleasure working with you as well. Your floors look so beautiful! **★★★★★ — Julietta Harding Interior Design, Sept. 2022** > Ami at Hi Hat Remodeling has worked with me on several projects, and I wouldn't work with anyone else. Ami is professional, reliable and is an expert in the field of flooring and tile. Her contractors are top notch. She's easy to reach when questions arise, and is incredibly personable. I would highly recommend her for any project. **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you, Julietta! I really enjoy working with your and your design ideas. **★★★★★ — Jan Apgar, June 2022** > Absolutely wonderful to work with Hi Hat Remodeling. Patrick and Ami are knowledgable, thorough and honest. We had a total home remodel including kitchen, two bathrooms, new windows, hardwood floor refinishing, lighting, tile and carpet installation. Many things can change during a remodel and they were always ready to help and find a solution. They definitely helped decrease the stress of remodeling for us. The bids for remodeling were right on the mark. They also have a great crew that works with them and we were never worried about having them in our home. What started out as a very stressful remodeling project became much more enjoyable after working with Patrick and Ami. In the end, the remodel was even more beautiful than we imagined. We are now on to our second project with Hi Hat Remodeling and are looking forward to working with them again and having a gorgeous, new bathroom. We're very happy to recommend Hi Hat Remodeling! **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you, Jan! I am excited to work on you again. **★★★★★ — HU-896281531, May 2022** > Working with Ami is a joy! She’s professional and knowledgeable, and approaches each project with a deep understanding of her client’s needs. She listens with empathy and goes the extra mile to make sure her client is happy. I’d happily work with Hi Hat Remodeling again! **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you, I appreciate the kind review and look forward to working with you again! **★★★★★ — Dena, May 2022** > Patrick did an excellent job with my kitchen remodel! He was always punctual, helped me coordinate the countertop amd appliance installations, left the work space organized and clean at the end of each day and followed up with me periodically after it was all finished to see how things were and if there was anything I might have questions or concerns about. He and Ami are a power team...they genuinely care about their clients and providing not only excellent work and craftsmanship, but a top notch customer service experience! I get so many compliments on my kitchen thanks to Hi Hat! **Comment from Hi Hat Installations:** > Thank you, Dena. Patrick will always be there to help when you need it! ## Selected projects - [West Seattle - Kitchen Remodel - Built-in Storage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/west-seattle-kitchen-remodel-built-in-storage-pj-vj~7291264) - Location: Seattle, WA - Photos: 8 - [North Seattle \| Modern Japanese Style Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/north-seattle-modern-japanese-style-bathroom-pj-vj~7247285) - Location: Seattle, WA - Photos: 16 - [Seattle \| White Eclectic Home Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/seattle-white-eclectic-home-remodel-pj-vj~7140075) - Location: Seattle, WA - Photos: 22 - [Kitchen, Living Room, Refinish, Primary Bath Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-living-room-refinish-primary-bath-remodel-pj-vj~6940524) - Location: Bellevue, WA - Photos: 7 - Description: Beautiful new custom cabinets and quartz countertops.
