Found North Shore on Yelp and am so happy we chose to work with them. Jiri was quick to come onsite and provide a quote, which was very reasonable. Manuel and Jiri were both incredibly professional. They got to work quick and made sure to cover all furniture, tape off the trim, and even did the cutting of the trim outside to avoid too much dust in the apartment. Was thoroughly impressed with the finished product and absolutely will use them in the future. Couldn't recommend them enough!

Kitchen remodels can be incredibly stressful, but Mirek and his team made the entire process smooth and worry-free. From start to finish, Mirek was incredibly professional, highly responsive and very knowledgeable. He took the time to understand our space, offering excellent suggestions that improved our cabinet layout and functionality. His crew, Christian and Lucas, were true craftsmen.

We got a few quotes and…read moreultimately went with Homewise Remodelers because the price was reasonable and Miro was so thorough in walking us through our options. He helped us select cabinets and worked through several versions of the kitchen layout until we were happy with it--we were easily able to swap out cabinet layouts and finishings, like adding a farmhouse sink. His crew were reliable, on-time, and respectful of our property throughout the remodel and we appreciated their attention to detail. They solicited our input on decorative details and were quick to fix things we didn't like, e.g., the location of kitchen cabinet pulls. We felt they treated our home as they would their own. The project even wrapped up a few days early. We would absolutely recommend Homewise Remodelers and choose them for future projects.

11 months ago I hired this contractor to replace my condo wood fire door. The contractor contacted…read moreme after he was aware of the door starting to warp, and he assured me he would replace my door due to the warping that is occurring. He says the door must have been defective to warp in a short period of time. I agreed to that, and he rectified the problem with the door he installed by going to replace it completely with a new one. I am satisfied with him as a contractor as he backed up his work and proved he is an honest and sincere which is well appreciated. I would recommend this carpenter to work on any project you have as his work and all supplied materials used are guaranteed and rectifies the problem completely and promptly.

Always on time, super reliable, and somehow always finds a way to make things happen even on my tight timelines. We've been working with him since October 2025 and the quality and experience have been 100%. His team painted our entire 2,200 sqft apartment, including doors, caulking, sanding, and painting the trim so everything looks clean and perfect. I've had them back to help with more projects since then... drywall, installing blinds... seriously, what can't they do?! The crew is just the best.

Deck Doc just finished power washing, sanding and staining my deck, and I am 100% satisfied with…read moretheir work. I scheduled the work around last November, as I wanted my deck to be refinished and looking good for the full 2025 season. The first days with decent weather in late April the deck was washed, and by early May the deck was finished. A crew of 2 worked a full day power washing and bleaching the deck and 2 sections of yard fencing. Every part of the deck was thoroughly cleaned, including areas not normally visible, and all areas of the deck that were surrounded by bushes. Within about a week, as soon as we had a few sunny days and warmer weather, a crew of three worked a full day sanding and staining the deck and fence. The deck floor was power sanded, and all other surfaces were hand sanded, before all sawdust was carefully blown away and stain was applied. Deck Doc did an outstanding job, and I would not hesitate to recommend them. Communications regarding scheduling were excellent, work was done competently and on the days and at the times promised. The area around the deck was left completely clean when work was completed. Thank you for making my deck look like new.
