Five Star Remodeling, Inc.

Pete and his crew did a great job with popcorn removal a few years back. When we decided to do a major remodel (kitchen, bathroom, summer kitchen) we again called Five Star. Excellent work, completed ahead of schedule at a reasonable price. Good communication, kept us in the loop at all times. Crew arrived on schedule and cleaned up when they finished. Of all the projects we have done this was the biggest and easiest. Thanks again Pete!

I am an architect who has done work for a certain large, well-known theme related company with the logo of a mouse. To say I have high standards is an understatement. I am also very picky about everything being "just so." I wanted a house full of unique design ideas like a wall full of vertically orientated tile (not the typical horizontal tile). My frame-less shower door was not to just have a handle, but also a towel bar. I wanted grey tile, not tan tile and yes, if it comes to the house for install and looks tan in the light of the room, its going back to the store. Most importantly, I wanted VERY complicated counter tops, with double thickness and a waterfall edge. To say that I am a difficult client could be considered an understatement. As Doctors make the worst patients, Architects make for the worst Contractor clients! I didn't just want a renovation, I wanted an entirely new interior! Beyond that, I am a young architect so while I knew what I wanted in some instances, Pete was able to use his expertise to recommend some additional upgrades which made the renovation polished! I knew I wanted everything that was gold (my house was built in the late 70s and had gold fixtures, door hinges and knobs everywhere!) to be silver. I wanted walls knocked down, others built and floors raised to be level. I had a pesky, unpermitted porch to permit and bring up to electrical, mechanical and exterior envelope code. I had four bedrooms of doors, closets and hinges to be re-painted and replaced. I had three bathrooms worth of vanities, counter tops, tile, tubs and showers that needed a complete overhaul. I enlarged the kitchen by eight feet and re-organized the layout. Three thousand square feet of floors were changed from fake Mexican tile to sleek and modern dark ceramic tile that looks like wood. Two fireplaces had to be completely overhauled inside and out. Black tile removed and replaced with Carrera Marble. The house had to be completely re-plumbed and all the odds and ends on the home inspection taken care of. Pete and Five Star Remodeling handled it all spectacularly! Always conscious of the budget and careful with the timeline. Pete was able to make recommendations such as re-texturing of the ceiling and walls that made the house look completely brand new. No longer were the unevenness of the 36 year old walls noticeable. It was almost as if the house was built the week before we moved in. Pete also recommended removing soffits that dated the house, giving it a more modern touch (and allowing my Husband's tall self to look more proportioned in the space). He recommended modernizing the grates for the AC... something I would never have thought of but made the world of a difference. Pete's extensive experience and knowledge of both materials and time for install allowed our budget to stretch farther than we ever thought it could. He is not only extremely professional in his skillset but also very personable! A pleasure to work with! He is easy to contact and responds to all concerns immediately. As a young, first time renovator, Pete was able to help me feel 100% comfortable with the entire renovation process, beginning to end. Not only would I recommend him to the average person, but I will even recommend him to my architecture friends. He holds both himself and his company to the highest standards and yes, when I do my next renovation (who is ever happy with just one? Its so much fun!), I will be calling Pete from Five Star Remodeling

AMAZING Service , that Did Exactly what I wanted in a timely and organized manner. I would highly recommend their service to anyone. They truly are professionals in what they do. I love my new house.

Pete & the guys at Five Start were awesome! So glad we found them via a referral from a friend. We had small (yet time consuming) improvement projects and Pete & his team knocked it out - with perfection! The process was great, from the immediate call back, the estimate process down to the finishing touches! They paid such attention to detail, were VERY efficient while working (even while working around our crazy family). They went above & beyond, making extra efforts to perfect the most minor details! We will DEFINITELY have Five Star Back for Future Project, and look forward to it! Thank you! From, The K. Family, Winter Park

There are four items I consider when hiring a contractor: 1. Price 2. Trust 3. Quality 4. Timeliness Pete and his team at Five Star Remodeling: 1. Offer competitive pricing. I typically receive 3 quotes for any project. Five Star either beats competitor pricing with their initial quote, beats competitor pricing upon reviewing another contractor's quote, or explains why the competing quote is not reasonable (i.e. a low-ball quote for sub-par service). 2. Are trustworthy. I trust Pete and his team in my home and with my family. They are professional, polite and a pleasure to work with. 3. Take pride in delivering a high-quality work product. Pete walks the project with you prior to completion for 100% satisfaction, will return to fix or adjust any items necessary, and, when not on the job site, receives photographic evidence from his workers of progress and job completion. 4. Deliver results on time. Pete is highly accessible by phone, e-mail and text message. He communicates clearly on availability, estimated project completion time and a deadline for completion. I used Five Star to "save me" from a poor contractor's work and they worked night and day for weeks to complete the project. In conclusion, I strongly recommend Five Star Remodeling, Inc. and I plan to continue using their services in the near future.

Pete and his crew at 5 Star Remodeling do an awesome job! We hired them to do several different home projects and all were done extremely well, on time, at a good price. We were especially pleased with their work of removing popcorn ceilings and refinishing with the knock down ceiling finish. It can be such a messy job but WOW, they were done within 24 hours and cleaned up as well! We will hire them in the future for all remodeling jobs.

Pete and his team did an outstanding job on our complete bathroom remodel. He and his team are perfectionist, always happy and polite, always making sure the job was done right and to our complete satisfaction. Everyone always arrived on time explaining what they were working on. Pete's cost estimate was the best out of three and there were no hidden fees or surprises at the end. They completed the remodel, which included complete tear down in amazingly short time. Pete and his team worked long hours with a smile, making sure job was done before our company arrived! Five Star Remodeling is true to it's name and definitely deserves 5 stars!

I wanted a 30 year old home gutted and modernized. It involved not only gutting and re-modeling 2 bathrooms, the kitchen and a Florida room but adding a screen porch and removing wall paper and carpet from almost every room. In true HGTV remodeling fashion, the unexpected happen. The original builder added the Florida room without a permit and did not obtain a property survey but, Pete took care of all of that for me. Pete and his staff worked on the house several months. They were prompt in completing their work and displayed great craftsmanship. Family members, who know about building, said that his technical completion was very good. Obviously they look at different things than I do. I love the tiles that Pete suggested for the bathroom and kitchen floors. Pete even met me at Flooring and Decor because it was overwhelming to me. I was not going to do a backsplash for the kitchen but Pete strongly suggested it and he was right, it made the kitchen look outstanding. The quality of the wooden kitchen and bathroom cabinets is excellent. He replaced all of the windows and installed hardwood floors, crown moulding and new baseboards through out the house. He sub contracted to have the electric outlets and switch boxes brought up to code. When there was a problem with an outlet, the electrician came out immediately to fix it. His staff was friendly, professional and obviously took pride in the quality of their work. We would have stayed within the contracted budget except for changes that I wanted. He would warn me if what I selected was more than we had previously agreed upon so that I could make an informed choice. The overall quality of this company's work was excellent. Having had three bathrooms and the kitchen remodeled in another by another company, believe me I know the difference in professionalism. I did not have to repeatedly call Five Star Remodeling to finish the project like I had to do with that other company. I would not hesitate to recommend Five Star Remodeling to anyone.

This is a fantastic company. All of the many projects that they have done in our condo are done right, within budget and on time. Pete, the owner, is a prefectionist. His crew are polite, hard working and very professional. Pete has totally transformed our master bath with an amazing shower. His crew did an terrific job of installing laminate in our living room and a bedroom.. His company did a supberb job of designing and installing tile in our entryway, two bathrooms and our kitchen We were flooded out and Pete and his crew made it better than new. His skill and attention to detail is on display in all his work.

We have used this company for three home remodeling projects and have been very pleased each time. The work they performed for us included knockdown/textured ceilings, drywall, wall texture, new doors and trim, flooring installation, light electrical work and lighting. They have repaired stucco on the exterior of our home and have helped create a home theater room. They work with the client to stay on budget and have great ideas to help achieve your remodeling goals. I recommend this company if you want quality work and professionalism.

Bid was the best out of three. Painters are hard working and know their craft well. The project went smoothly and even finished a day early.
