Home Upgrades, LLC

It is my pleasure to review and recommend to you Chris Adams and his firm, Home Upgrades, LLC. My wife and I have worked exclusively with Chris on three home remodeling projects over the past two years. Chris was recommended to us by a local architect and was one of three firms I interviewed before selecting him for these projects. The work involved substantial improvements in i) converting two under-used small rooms into a larger bedroom and bath, ii) a total renovation of the kitchen including extensive plumbing, electric, lighting, new cabinetry and granite countertops, and iii) the complete gutting/remodel of three upstairs bathrooms with new floor and shower tile, plumbing and lighting fixtures, cabinets/countertops/plumbing and electric. The projects included demolition, framing, sheetrock, plumbing, electric, paintings, kitchen appliance and bath fixture placement and more. All of this work was performed by experienced and skilled subcontractors under Chris's daily supervision. While the subs all knew their work very well, Chris knew the entire project and coordinated all of the purchasing, delivery, labor, materials and permitting needed to complete each of these projects on time and on budget. He also worked very well with our design consultant and executed the concept and plans very well. We are highly satisfied with our, essentially, new home! Chris took care to see that the work started and finished in a timely manner each day. All tools were neatly stored away and the work areas swept, vacuumed and cleaned at the end of each day. There was never any need to call him about any delay in schedule or poor quality work. The outcomes of his and his team's work leaves us with spaces we are pleased to be in, to entertain in, to live in. I have never dealt with a more qualified professional. I strongly recommend you consider him for your home remodeling project in the Raleigh area. You will not be disappointed.

Chris was professional, helpful, and kind throughout the entire process of designing and building a screened porch. When I had a particular type of door in mind, he searched until he found what I was looking for!

Home Upgrades in Raleigh, NC widened interior doorways and installed larger doors. It was a very stressFREE event! Chris is very polite and professional. He is a good communicator and was available during construction. He listened to the details of my project concerns and wishes. The crew was professional, punctual and kept the work site clean. I was impressed that they used covers to protect my hardwood floors in the work zone area. The quality work of the finished product was excellent. Over two months have passed and I have no complaints.

Chris recently finished our master bathroom renovation and we enjoyed working with him start to finish. He was happy to work with us on pricing and very helpful in adjusting the plan when changes were made. His team was prompt, skilled and cleaned up very well at the end of each day. I highly recommend Chris and Home Upgrades!

Chris did my total home renovation, and working with him was by far the easiest part of the project. The house was built in 1949 and we took it down to the studs. New roof, new wiring, new siding, new front porch, and a total floorplan rework including a new kitchen and adding a second bath. He consulted with us at the beginning of the project to give a guesstimate quote and waited patiently while we shopped around and got the loan organized. He does beautiful work, works with good subs, answers calls and emails promptly, and stands by his work. He doesn't mind coming back out until something is right, even if it's months later! I recommend him to anyone who will listen, and have already had him come back for further projects.

Home Upgrades performed a very extensive renovation at my house, adding a master bed and bath and converting a carport into a garage. This renovation wasn't cookie cutter given the old age of my split level. However, Chris Adams was able to overcome challenges and find solutions that other contractors that I spoke with could not. The price was reasonable and the quality was great. Chris is always very responsive and I never have to wait for him to return a call. Best of all, he is someone you can trust. I will use him again and highly recommend him!

Several years ago, a friend of mine recommended Home Upgrades to me for a complete bathroom model. I was very pleased with the final product and especially with the customer service, such as being available to ask questions, giving advice about products, and connecting me with other professionals when I needed other services. Home Upgrades has completed other work at my house and was my "go-to" when I needed my other bathroom renovated last year. Now I have two beautiful bathrooms and a company I can count on for work I may need in the future.

We called on Chris to help us with a kitchen remodel. We have been very pleased with the quality of workmanship of his contractors. We have been pleased with the promptness of his return to do a couple of minor adjustments. We were secure with his knowledge of the jobs that needed to be done. We would recommend Chris to our friends and neighbors.

Chris remodeled our kitchen in 4 weeks time with custom cabinetry and came in under budget. He and his crew exceeded expectations!

Chris Adams helped us to open up our kitchen to our living room, installed completely new cabinets, new window and two new doors, a new floor in the kitchen and living room area, opened up a closet and new HVAC system. The work impacted two floors of our home. Chris was easy to communicate with, hired excellent people and was timely and on budget. For such an extensive project, we felt that we were in good hands.

We hired company owner Chris Adams to remodel an original '60's bathroom, more difficult than the usual to accomplish because of its small footprint. Common fixtures like sinks and medicine cabinets needed to be found that would not only fit within the tiny square footage, but if possible, give the illusion of space. This was before the days of " tiny house living," so finding these items presented a challenge, to say the least! Chris and his team were able to finish the project in a reasonable amount of time, within the targeted budget range. Adding two clever wall built ins, one inside the shower and one out, gave an unbelievable amount of additional storage for such a small space. While the project was ongoing, Chris was often on the job site and kept in constant contact with us, answering questions we had in a timely manner and keeping us abreast of what things would be done, when. Workers were neat and respectful of our home, as well. We continue to enjoy the results of this remodel.

I'm so glad to have met Chris and the work that Home Upgrades, LLC did for me was top notch. Home Upgrades is very responsive in all communication from estimating to project execution to follow-up. Pricing was very competitive, and the quality of the work was exceptional. Every person that came to the site was courteous, professional, and obviously highly skilled in their area of expertise. They fixed an issue with a root cause that stumped at least 6 other businesses. Highly recommend and will be calling them again.
