This was definitely among the best experiences I have had. Every subcontractor and contractor who came to the house was polite and helpful and asked if I had any questions. They were neat and courteous. They worked around my challenging schedule and couldn't have been more pleasant. And most importantly, the work looks fantastic. I will definitely use them again for any projects - this made me excited to do the next one! **★★★★★ — Carolyn Hedberg, Aug. 2019** > DBC designed and created the kitchen remodel I wanted. It's a year old, and I'm still loving it. Their design process followed my "vision" and made the sometimes daunting decision-making so smooth. Everyone involved was delightful to work with: Talented, organized, professional, respectful; a joy to have in my home for the whole project. So much so I had them back to re-side part of the house AND re-do the deck. Also still loving the deck! Will be asking them to tackle 2 bathrooms next! **Comment from DiStefano Brothers Construction Inc.:** > Hi Carolyn, > Thank you for your kind words, we truly appreciate it! We loved working with you and look forward to collaborating on any future projects. **★★★★★ — Suzanne McBride, June 2018** > DiStefano brothers completed a kitchen backsplash project for us in recent weeks. They responded quickly and completed the job when they promised and at the price quoted. The team, led by Keith, were professional, very neat, and fun to work with too. I heartily recommend this construction company for any project big or small. We have already called them for a quote on another job. **★★★★★ — Courtney Zanelli, LLC, April 2018** > Working with DiStefano Brothers was a great pleasure! They were extremely communicative, efficient and organized while managing the project, and the final product that they produced was excellent. The timeline and request for fixtures was laid out in the beginning of the project so that all materials were onsite in a timely fashion before they were needed. Drawings were produced and the plan was set into motion. As a result, everything ran smoothly and the finished product is beautiful. Highly recommend! **Comment from DiStefano Brothers Construction Inc.:** > Hi Courtney, > Your kinds words are much appreciated and the pleasure was ours. It was great to collaborate with another Designer who focuses on every little detail in a space and offers open communication from start to finish. > We hope the space is everything you hoped for. > > \- The DBC Team **★★★★★ — Matthew Daly, March 2018** > My experience with DBCI has been nothing short of superior. The team that Pete has put together has an outstanding grasp on managing the project life cycle. I never felt that I was alone from the first day of demo to the final walk thru. The DBCI team really made me feel confident that they were going to handle my home with the care it deserved. I would recommend DBCI to anyone looking for this level of professionalism and craftsmanship. Thank you Pete, Dave and Kristen!!!! **Comment from DiStefano Brothers Construction Inc.:** > Hi Matt, > Thank you for the kind words. The team enjoyed collaborating with you and watching your vision come to life. > Enjoy your spaces! > > -The DBC team! **★★★★★ — Kelley Kinnicutt, Oct. 2017** > If you are looking for a contractor always compare apples to apples. Or, go straight to the best choice directly which is DiStefano Brothers. From the moment they come to your home to study the job possibilities to the time they pack up their last tool it is a joy to work with them. They actually have designers, carpenters and contractors who listen to you and answer your questions. They assure you that when your room has been completely gutted and your cat has even jumped in the dumpster that everything will be great. And it was! I can honestly say that these folks know what they are doing. Not only are they extremely skilled in their trades but they are kind and professional. We were under renovation of our kitchen and powder room a bit more than a month and it was much more do-able than I expected. They will answer all your questions and totally put you at ease. They clean up every day which is very helpful. I would recommend the DB team for your next home job. You won't regret it. BTW if you have a dog, they are very dog friendly and that helps! **Comment from DiStefano Brothers Construction Inc.:** > Hi Kelley, > Thank you for the kind words, it was a pleasure being apart of designing and constructing your new spaces from start to finish! Hope you and the family are enjoying your spaces. > > -The DBC team **★★★★★ — Henderson Roofing, May 2017** > I would highly recommend DBC to anyone who has a home improvement project. They are very professional and every time I work with them they do great quality work. They go above and beyond for their customers and I will definitely hire them again in the future. **★★★★★ — joe dizo, Feb. 2017** > Once we decided to renovate our master bathroom, we interviewed and obtained preliminary cost estimates from three design and construct companies. Because of their attentiveness, ease of communication and reasonable estimate we decided upon the DiStefano group for our project. Needless to say we were very pleased with our decision. Their design suggestions both for materials and color schemes were superb. The actual construction proceeded exactly according to their schedule. The project manager was always there to supervise and to seek our input on the various stages from demo to tile work to cabinet installation to painting , etc. We were impressed with DiStefano's timeliness, attention to detail and the price for value. Almost on a daily basis I love to hear my wife say " I love My New Bathroom " !! We highly recommend DiStefano Brothers Constructiion. **★★★★★ — dakota5857, Jan. 2017** > My experience working with this company was excellent !! Very professional,Curtious,Reliable.Excellent work ethic.I was comfortable leaving workers alone in my home when I left for work.They also took care of our dog.Attention to every detail.Cleaned up @ the end of each day,locked up if we were not there. My kitchen remodel is beyond what I dreamed of Im very happy,would refer this company!! **★★★★★ — smlamp, March 2016** > DiStefano Brothers did an extensive renovation of our bathroom. The walls were redone with new tile, the floor was replaced, and best of all the tub was replaced with a beautiful, spacious, floor level shower. > They were great to work with through every step of the project. Their design was spot on. And we greatly appreciated Marisa's help with making color and tile choices. Their staff were professional and courteous, doing everything they could to accommodate our needs as the renovated our only bathroom. Yes, they removed the toilet every morning and reinstalled it before they left each day! **Comment from DiStefano Brothers Construction Inc.:** > Thanks so much. Marisa has a great eye for that. **★★★★★ — User, Feb. 2015** > I have had the pleasure of working with Peter DiStefano and his team on multiple design/build projects. What a joy. They are always looking out for their client's best interest and approach projects so that there are no surpirses. This means that their estimates are pretty spot on - no add ons at the end that weren't disclosed up front. > The level of service that DBCRI provides is top notch - always ensuring to protect the client's home carefully during construction - something you should not take lightly. > His crew members are true craftsmen who have many years of experience mastering their craft and I know Peter is a true beliver in always learning about new cutting edge products that would benefit his projects & clients timeline or bottom line. Five stars for DiStefano Brothers Construction! **★★★★★ — knauges, Dec. 2013** > DiStefano Brothers Construction recently remodeled my kitchen. The work exceeded my expectations and I love it! When I scroll through the Houzz kitchens I still like mine the best! They provided a schedule, kept true to the schedule and finished on-time. Pete and his staff are focused on the details and making the client happy. Every day they cleaned up the job site inside our home and outside. The staff and contractors that were sent to our home were friendly, professional and knowledgeable in their areas of expertise. There were no surprises in the final bill for for the work. Other than items that I specifically added it matched the quote. This team really has the client's best interest at heart. For example, Pete traveled to two states and three granite dealers with me until we found the perfect slab! I can't wait for the next project! ## Selected projects - [By The Beach Living](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/by-the-beach-living-pj-vj~5770339) - Location: Narragansett, RI - Photos: 2 - [A Classic Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/a-classic-bathroom-pj-vj~5244072) - Location: South Kingstown, RI - Photos: 7 - [The Social Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-social-kitchen-pj-vj~5244181) - Location: South Kingstown, RI - Photos: 7 - [A Coastal Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/a-coastal-bathroom-pj-vj~5243977) - Location: Jamestown, RI - Photos: 8 - [Matunuck Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/matunuck-kitchen-pj-vj~2229302) - Location: South Kingstown, RI - Photos: 15 - [Newport Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/newport-bathroom-pj-vj~5770342) - Location: Newport, RI - Photos: 5 - [Francis Farm Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/francis-farm-kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~5235430) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 - [Design Studio by DiStefano Brothers Construction](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/design-studio-by-distefano-brothers-construction-pj-vj~2741470) - Location: South Kingstown, RI - Photos: 13 - [Harbor View Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/harbor-view-bathroom-pj-vj~1974833) - Location: North Kingstown, RI - Photos: 18 - [Nautical Interior](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/nautical-interior-pj-vj~5244347) - Location: South Kingstown, RI - Photos: 7 - [Beach Home at Bonnet Shores](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/beach-home-at-bonnet-shores-pj-vj~1877884) - Location: Narragansett, RI - Photos: 23 - Description: This home was in the perfect location: walking distance from the shore with beautiful views of the Pettaquamscutt Cove.
