Excellent workmanship and customer service!…read more The owner, Ryan Drafton came to our rescue and cleaned up a mess created by a different contracting company. While doing so, he identified and corrected other deficiencies we were not aware of that the other contractor had covered up. Ryan was diligent in completing our project in a timely manner without sacrificing quality. Ryan is a man of integrity. He is extremely talented, a perfectionist and authentically cares about the work he performs. With respect to our future remodel needs, we won't trust anyone else!

Dun-Rite did an excellent job with our bathroom remodel. This was the second time we hired…read moreDun-Rite. We previously used them for a kitchen counter replacement. For this bathroom project, our installer was Juan Y and he was meticulous! Juan was very courteous and notified us each morning with a text message that he was on his way. The old tile shower, vanity, sink and toilet were removed to facilitate new flooring, a new solid surface shower, and a new vanity with sink and quartz top. Floating shelves were installed above the toilet to match the cabinet color. Open shelving was installed to replace a small linen closet. We updated electrical lighting and fan along with a new coat of paint. Project manager was Tim and he was very attentive to answering any questions and making sure the job was completed on time. We highly recommend Dun-Rite for your remodeling needs.

The short review is the end result of my bathroom remodel is nice. But the process and…read morecommunication? Terrible and not worth it. If you're ok with longer than promised timelines, no or messed up communication, broken promises and basically being your own project manager - hire these guys. I too have cracks in other walls from their demo of the bathroom floor - I haven't even taken those repairs on yet. My bathroom overhaul started August 5, 2025. Was told 3 weeks construction and then an additional 4-6 weeks for custom shower glass. Reality was construction took 6 weeks, I had to follow up to make sure the shower glass was even measured/ordered and it then took 9 weeks to come in. Even worse - one piece of glass was damaged on install and the replacement took an additional 9 weeks. My project was finally complete on January 30, 2026. Along the way, the project manager decided I didn't need a way to contact him so never gave me his phone number. The person doing the work would say he'll arrive at 8-9 AM and then show up hours later. I had random people showing up to do work that wasn't ready yet. While out of town for a few days (I gave them the dates from the beginning), I got called because the flooring installer was on my front porch. When I returned, no follow up and days later I called the office to ask for a finish date. You know, I have nothing better to do than sit and wait to see if someone shows up every day. Couple weeks later, I noticed missing grout at the bottom of the shower tile - called for help. No response. After waiting weeks, I finally grouted it myself. They did call very promptly every couple of weeks to ask if the final building inspection could be done to close out the permit. Given I had no shower glass, I said no. I was asked couldn't I just put up a temporary shower curtain? Again, no. You'll get your inspection when I get use of my full bathroom again. Two final straws for me - after the damaged glass panel install, one of their employees called and asked if I "really needed it replaced, couldn't I just accept it". Wow. I also got a request for feedback, which I gave and the employee said wow, I am so sorry, we'd like to send you a gift card to go to dinner for all the trouble. That was in November. Now it's nearly the end of March and no gift card ever surfaced. If you can't keep a small promise, what makes anyone think you'll keep a big one? Never again and I'll be sure not to recommend this wrecking crew to anyone.

Benjamin has completed several projects for us over approximately five years - this has included -…read moredrywall demo, removal of popcorn ceilings in bedrooms and the hallway, drywalling the basement, the garage etc. He has completed smooth texture, trowel texture and very light orange peel texture - all are perfect!!!

Benjamin and his crew are trustworthy and leave the worksite clean and in order. Thank you for your quality of work and professionalism! Interestingly, I found Benjamin on Yelp originally, over five years ago... while his business has grown a lot since we started working together - he still provides the time, quality and guidance as he did before AND he still pays attention to the important details!!!

His craftsmanship really stood out, and the results exceeded my expectations.   Professional, skilled, and easy to work with, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Benjamin and will absolutely be calling him again for future projects.

We hired Empirical to finish our basement over the summer and they did a fantastic job! I…read moreinterviewed several contractors and Josh was the most professional that I spoke with. He came prepared with lots of information and documentation at our initial meeting. He was very quick to respond and he had an idea for the layout that no one else had thought of. Once things got rolling our project manager was Chuck and I can't speak highly enough of him. He and his team were very professional and everything was completed to our expectations and in some cases beyond. Chuck did a great job of always checking to make sure things were done the right way and if he thought it wasn't good enough he made sure it got done to his standards. He is without a doubt the best contractor I've ever worked with. As far as budget and timeline goes the only things that went over budget were things that we decided to change or upgrade. The timeline also went as expected. Before they even started they gave us an estimate but also told to expect some delays. We expected it to be done by the end of the summer and it was. I would most definitely recommend Empirical Construction for any project and if we need any work done in the future I'll be giving them a call.

Shortly after, I received a response from the business advising me that they did not currently have the capacity for our project. Understanding the circumstance, but also willing to wait for the right team, I responded and asked the business to let me know if that changed in the future, as we have several projects in our home and are hoping to bring the same team aboard for all of them. I then received the attached response offering a completely different explanation than before. Rather than acting with integrity, the business elected to tell a lie, as the project was likely not lucrative enough for them. I made no reference to my budget, but the business assumed I would not be interested in paying their prices. I would like to offer a two-star rating, though, as the communication was quite prompt.

I was very happy with the work he did and I would hire him again if I need any more work on my home or rental property. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a contractor who wants something done well, in a timely fashion and for a great price.

We knew it would eventually would need a lot of work! Roberto and his crew did a very big home renovation for us that included: ripping out an old wet bar, redoing all the floors, baseboards, trim, and stairs, and repainting the entire house. We love the results and our house looks fantastic! They were very flexible, as we added a few things mid-project and asked for a plethora of eclectic paint colors. We were also living in the home, which is challenging, but they worked around us and went floor-by-floor with no issues. Roberto also gave us a lovely and personalized gift bundle when the project was done- so nice! They obviously care a lot about customer satisfaction and their quote was very competitive. They did our back fence several years ago and we were super happy with that project as well. We truly appreciate that they donate a percentage of each job to a non-profit of your choice. We highly recommend Building While Giving! :)

Nick was prompt and always got back to me immediately and was checking in throughout the day to keep me abreast of progress. I hired him and his crew again on another project to modernize a window, replace grout in my kitchen, and do some extra painting projects because they are extremely good at it.

I would recommend Nick to others and I hope to work with him in the future.
