John and his team have, over the years, upgraded our outdated kitchen, formerly unusable basement, deck, and bathroom. Their creative designs and quality work will enable us to age in place right here in our neighborhood.

We've done three projects with Sylvestre, beginning in 2008, then 2018 and 2020. Our neighbor recommended them saying, "They will not be the least expensive, nut they do excellent work and no one is better organized." She was spot on. Their work is exceptional, communication outstanding. They discovered rotten footings in our then 86 year old basement. Communicated quickly and clearly. Came up with a sound and cost effective solution and solved the problem. Each project was finished in an outstanding manner. I highly recommend Sylvestre Remodeling and Design to others.

We chose Sylvestre Construction to remodel our basement a few years ago and hired them again to redo our kitchen and dining room this year. Awesome job of retaining the character of our 1920s SW Minneapolis home while making some modern updates. The whole team is wonderful to work with from start to finish. Great design suggestions, stayed on schedule, outstanding craftsmanship, and accommodated our needs while construction was in progress. John, Kate, Wayne, and Les feel like part of the family.

Sylvestre Remodeling did a major project for me this fall and winter. They were recommended by family members who had used them several times in the past. I was very very pleased with the process and the results. Excellent quality, on time and on budget. Very good people, both employees and tradespeople. Very careful of my property throughout the project.

We worked with Sylvestre for a kitchen and two bathrooms. They were outstanding. Our house is over 100 years old and they were very careful with it. They work with some wonderful subcontractors who have many years of experience. This was so helpful. You will not find this level of experience if you wait too long. There are not enough people going into these trades. I highly recommend Sylvestre. Don't wait! Give them a call.

Our townhouse remodel in Minnetonka is finished! It’s beautiful and we’re enjoying it immensely. Sylvestre Construction did an amazing job. The project was on time and on budget. Best of all, most of the work was done while we were in Florida for the winter, so we avoided the mess of construction. The house has an open floor plan now with all the essential living space on one floor. It's perfect for us and Moxie the dog. There’s a new kitchen, three new baths, and hardwood floors. The Sylvestre crew is professional, respectful, trustworthy and all great craftspeople with attention to detail and a willingness to adapt to conditions and our wishes. This is the fourth remodel they’ve done for us, and we believe it’s the best. You won’t regret using Sylvestre Construction for your next house project. Tom and Karen Anderson

We love our new kitchen, dining room, bathroom, and hardwood floors! This team knows how to plan and manage a big project. We had a great collaboration with design team. There were no schedule delays. Everyone cleaned up at the end of the day. Very professional, beginning to end. We highly recommend Syslvestre Remodeling & Design and look forward to any future projects with them.

We hired Sylvestre to remodel the attic in our 1.5 story bungalow, and had outstanding experience. The entire team was professional, responsive, and frankly just really damned good at what they do. They listened to our ideas for the space and provided their own suggestions based on their considerable experience. We found it easy to work with them, from the early phases of design all the way through to the final inspection. Trade-offs were made clear, the cost estimate was very detailed, and they finished ahead of schedule. We highly recommend Sylvestre Remodeling & Design.

Sylvestre has done one major remodeling project for me (kitchen addition) and a few minor ones. I live in a 1924 bungalow and nothing is simple. He added six feet to the kitchen and it looks original. The old fashioned detailing i.e. Bead board under the eaves, matching stucco, textured cinder block and more make all the difference. I do not have a "hunk of addition." My neighbors don't remember how it was. when I called I said I wanted a new kitchen that looks old and I'm still delighted eleven years later. He's done several small projects for me including one just last year. These people are fabulous.
