243 Morrisville, NC Kitchen and Bathroom Remodelers

“My husband and I met Twila at her studio, where she was generous with her time as she gathered preliminary information from us to determine our vision, our needs and our budget. The next week she visited our home to make suggestions based on current kitchen recommendations, and take measurements. At our next appointment at her studio, her CAD design of our new kitchen gave us the confidence to move forward with the project.. We then picked out the cabinets, backsplash, counter tops and flooring with her guidance. She requested, and we sent, the dimensions of the appliances we had chosen. Although we were free to shop our (paid for) design around, we went with an excellent contractor she recommended, with whom she stayed in constant contact, and the finished product was beyond our expectations and looked like a picture in Kitchen and Bath magazine.. She stayed in touch with us by email, though we did expect her to make one more visit between demo and construction. There was a bit of anxiety where we had to return the microwave we had bought and search high and low for one that fit the space. It was not the one we wanted, but, hey, it's a microwave. The best thing is that Twila made the best use of our limited kitchen space. We would have appreciated more feedback once construction had begun (since there were more decisions to make), but maybe that's not how it works. Basically, Twila is very knowledgeable, professional.and personable and has a good eye for aesthetics, and knowledge of how to make a kitchen efficient,.”

“We worked with Trey on the cabinets and granite in our new house. He was really helpful in picking out the style and color of our cabinets and took us to the granite shop to see large slabs which made it easier to visualize what we wanted. When the time came to cut the granite we went back to the granite shop to pick out the exact slabs we wanted and he laid out the counters so that the nice parts of the slab fell where they could be seen. Trey was so meticulous every step of the way, and our kitchen and bathrooms turned out so well. I would recommend him to anyone looking for that little bit of extra attention to make sure everything comes out perfectly.”

“White Oak Custom Builders (Justin Hartman) was the contractor for a very extensive remodeling project of my house in 2013. The scope of the remodeling involved window replacement (22 windows and 6 patio doors and all new interior doors), interior wall and flooring system replacement, three decks, a new roof structure (approximately 2400 sq. ft.) and all new interior trim for what became a three level house, originally built in 1950. While major remodeling is inherently stressful for almost any homeowner, Justin’s services as a contractor were invaluable, and I am extremely pleased with the final result. Specifically, I would give Justin top marks in the following areas: 1. Quality of work performed. The quality of work done was consistently top notch. Justin knowledgeable, skilled, and competent and is conscientious about following project specifications, and his work product rarely needs improvement or revision. 2. Project management and coordination. Justin’s prior experience working in construction really paid off. He was knowledgeable about all aspects of our project, and was able to plan, coordinate and manage the activities of different work crews effectively. He remained closely involved in overseeing the project from start to finish. His excellent attention to detail, strong organizational skills and commitment to follow-through are assets which enabled him to juggle the extensive details involved in our project without missing a beat. Justin’s familiarity with building codes also facilitated a smooth and hassle-free process when it came to building permits and inspection. 3. Integrity and professionalism. Throughout the project, I was impressed with Justin’s commitment to generating a top quality product, rather than maximizing his profit margin. When situations arose where extra work needed to be done (because of hidden problems that were not apparent until work on the house had commenced), Justin either (if it was relatively minor) took care of it, or (if it was more extensive) involved me in an informed decision making. 4. Effective communication. Justin kept me closely informed of work crew schedules, delivery dates, and projected completion dates of different phases of our project. His communication (whether by cell phone or email) was always clear, informative, and helpful. He was either available on his cell phone, or returned my phone call within 2-3 hours. We never had a single miscommunication throughout the project. 5. Flexibility and effectiveness in dealing with unexpected developments. When unforeseen problems surfaced (e.g., termite damage in a wall, structural problems with the existing floor and roof system), Justin worked diligently with me to identify a solution that was acceptable to me. He utilized resources effectively (e.g., recommending the services of a structural engineer in a limited fashion) and creatively to make changes necessary for implementing required solutions. 6. Sensitivity to worksite appearance and neighbor relations. Our project required huge dumpsters and a portable toilet (for the work crew), and there was very limited parking. Justin’s placement of the dumpster, portable toilet, and construction materials was based not solely on function and convenience, but showed a consideration for the aesthetics of the worksite. The work crew parked their vehicles in ways that were minimally disruptive to the neighborhood traffic, and their conduct never caused any discomfort to our neighbors. In the period of this project, there was not one single neighbor complaint! Instead, three different neighbors passed on compliments about the work. In closing, I am very pleased with the final product which Justin was instrumental in delivering, and I am extremely impressed with his work as a contractor. In a world where shoddy workmanship and poor service are unfortunately all too common, Justin is indeed a rare find. I would not hesitate to hire Justin again, or to recommend him to my friends and neighbors. I recommend White Oak Custom Builders to you most enthusiastically, and without any reservations.”

“We hired this contractor for a multi-faceted but budget-conscious renovation of the house we had just purchased. The work ranged from complete 2-story hardwood floor replacement, to light fixtures, installation of a gas line for natural gas stove, and various other jobs, some big, some small. Charles and his team took every aspect of our floor to ceiling renovation plan seriously, and delivered excellent results, with constant communication and updates/strategy meetings along the way. I would highly recommend Builderbee, and Charles Santos, to anyone with a home renovation or building project”

“Working with LuxeMark over the past several years has resulted in beautiful cabinetry for my homes. Chelsea is easy to work with and very professional. She creates unique designs that utilize the space and provide everyday functionality. The installations are fast, easy and clean and the customer service is outstanding!

“The crew removed "popcorn" from ceilings throughout the house and made ceiling repairs. The ceilings look perfect! the clean-up crew also did a good job. I'm very satisfied with the work.”

“I hired David for a bathroom remodel which required a lot of demo work! He reconfigured walls and had to level out floors. David took the extra time to ensure that the foundation was perfect to minimize any flaws or imperfections when the tile went in. The end result was absolute perfection! I should mention too that David was very helpful and patient with me in selecting tile and was able to offer sound advice based on his experience with certain types of tile. David was a true partner in this project and I truly appreciate the time attention he dedicated to me!!!”

“We had The Bath Shop remodel our master bath and they did a fantastic job. Everyone we worked with was professional and the work is outstanding. We were able to work with a tight budget for a large remodel project and get a top notch high end result. They started on time and finished on time and never strayed from the budget. We will definitely call them again for our next bathroom remodel.”

“Richard Ryder did a large renovaton for me including gutting my master bath and closet, upgrading two more baths, installing hard wood floors, installing all new light fixtures, widening closet doors, taking down a wall, and painting the entire interior. He is currently doing repairs on a second home we have recently purchased. My master bath and closet were a disaster. Richard not only refurbished the space, he completely redesigned it creating a spa like oasis that we still can't believe is ours. He did the carpentry on the built-ins himself. While we have worked with several competent contractors, no one compares to Richard Ryder. He can do anything from historic preservation to new builds to remodeling. He is a creative problem solver, a skilled craftsman, and a reliable, fair, and honest person. He offers a range of options for any job and stays on budget. When Richard works with you it is as your advocate; he works with you to get the best result for the most reasonable price. We feel blessed that we found him and he has our highest recommendation and our complete confidence.”

“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.”
