    Kitchen

    John was able to come by on short notice and look at our project. He was confident in his ability and gave us a timeframe of 3 months and finished in 2 and a half, which was surprising given the size of the project. Painting 1st half of home, which he finished before any other company could arrive on site. Removal of huge load-bearing wall and replacing with a 26 foot beam! Full kitchen remodel, and turning an office and utility bathroom into a master suite with a walk in closet and a separate laundry room. Plus new flooring through most of the home and large amount of drywall replacement. John and his team was not only able to remove the load-bearing wall, but they also raised the dropped ceiling in the kitchen, which made a HUGE difference in the final product. But beyond just doing what we asked, he had invaluable suggestions that we were really grateful for, such as sectioning off a foyer area in our open floor plan, changing the grout on the kitchen tile so that it wouldn't stain so easily, the type of wall paint needed that wasn't glossy, but was easy to clean, and countless other details. As we worked with him, we learned to trust his esthetic eye and input, and we couldn't be happier with the results! Our friends and family were all very impressed such a renovation could be done it that short of a window, and done well. The cabinets installed are very high quality with soft close hardware we just love. Custom built pantry and insta hot system for the sink. He worked with us to come up with solutions and kept the job moving every day. Would highly recommend!

    I have nothing but praise and thanks for John Burns and his crew. He did a huge remodel in my 1900 sq. ft. home, including removal of an interior wall and raising a ceiling to create an open concept kitchen, overhauling 2.5 bathrooms, and transforming and updating my entire house. He and his crew work FAST, their craftsmanship is exceptional, they're always friendly, and they finished ON TIME. I am over the moon happy with the work they did, and I will 100% use them again for any of my future construction needs. Such an amazing remodel experience with them. Thank you Burns Construction!

    We are extremely happy with our expanded and remodeled kitchen that was completed by Burns Construction. We went back and forth for about a year with John Burns, getting other quotes, rethinking the job, and changing aspects of the plan before we finally moved forward. During that time John never failed to return my calls, answer my questions, ballpark me additional costs, and put me in contact with various folks to price out different aspects of the job. It was a fairly complicated project but it never fazed John and he was always straight forward, reasonable, and honest about the cost and the work that would need to take place. We started work at the end of Feb 2020 and about a third of the way through found ourselves in Coronavirus self isolation. I'd like to extend an extra thank you to John and his amazing crew for adapting and continuing  working where possible under very difficult circumstances. The quality of work and professionalism from all the crew that helped complete the project was top notch. I never had any hesitation to trust any of the crew in our home and they were all really polite and pleasant as well as being highly skilled tradesmen. The majorly disruptive parts of the job were completed in a very reasonable amount of time and every little detail of things was finalized before the last payment installment. If you are looking for an honest and reasonable contractor with a highly skilled crew to do a professional job then definitely check out Burns Construction. You should know what you want and be mostly clear about the plan before you undertake the work. This is a general contractor not an interior designer. I would not hesitate to have John and his crew back to work with us again on future projects even after multiple weeks of being under construction and back and forth with John during a global pandemic! Thank you Burns Construction.

    Hello I'm not any Yelper by any means. What can I say, other that John and his most awesome, professional, honest, top notch quality crew did an amazing kitchen remodel for us. John and his crew were always on time, on schedule, worked clean, communicated and delivered. John was always accommodating if we had something in mind that wasn't considered. Not to mention the reciprocal honesty and guidance John gave on what would work and wouldn't. My wife and I could not be any more happier with our kitchen outcome. John made this the best construction work experience. The compliments that we have received from all that come over is nothing short of amazing. John, Matt, Joe, Gabe, Jeff, the counter top crew and anyone else I forgot. Thank you, thank you for such an amazing job. We have more work for you!

    I found this company on yelp and called them based on their good reviews. I have now completed a pretty massive remodel and couldn't be happier. Quality work at a reasonable price and this team has literally made my dream a reality. I have to admit I can be nit picky and even in these times they worked with me and catered to my every wish! Huge shoutout to John who since the beginning was very responsive and timely and honest. I've now recommended them to multiple friends that they've done jobs for and I can't say enough about them. Sadly I have found in recent days that this level of service and communication is hard to come by and it blew me away. Here are some of my after photos for reference.

    Wonderful new shower installed by Burns Construction! Great craftsmanship and awesome customer service!

    John and his crew are absolutely amazing! I had Burns Construction replace my master bath shower with a walk-in shower. Travertine subway tile, pebble floor, glass tile inlay, floating shelves, glass doors, and a rain shower head were all installed by true craftsmen who took the time to do it right. Would recommend John and his crew to anyone needing remodel work done right!

    The gorgeous finished masterpiece!

    We've remodeled a kitchen before with a company that wasn't fantastic, so having Vostok…read moreconstruction be so great was amazing. We chose Vostok Construction to remodel our primary bathroom/bedroom that had lots of water damage. We knew that it would be a big job (needed new subfloor and floor joists and studs in one wall) and they took care of us. They were very careful to make sure their mess didn't get anywhere outside of the job site, took their time to make the finishes look just right, and were courteous and kind to myself and my kids. And Igor's tiling is absolutely stunning. I have high standards for finishes and I cannot find a flaw in our tile--he's that good. Eric and Alex were super helpful with seeing our vision and explaining what would be cost effective but also functional. I never felt like either of them pushed me to do something I didn't want (and as a people pleaser, that's hard!). The job had a couple of rough spots (bad plumbing from the previous contractor, and a paint color mixup etc.) but each time there was an issue, the communication was clear and they let us know what needed to be done. They were patient when we realized our faucets and other metal finishes weren't matching and did their best to help us find what we needed. They finished the job in the timeframe they quoted us even with some hiccups along the way. I would 100% recommend Vostok Construction (and I have to some friends!). I hope to use them again in the near future for some more bathrooms and a living room overhaul.

    Central builders are the best. We used them for a very small project 2 years ago, and decided to…read moreuse them on an entire downstairs demo and remodel. We blew out a wall, doubled the kitchen size, all new flooring, cabinets, windows, countertops, backsplash, ceiling beams, you name it. Vic and his team were professional throughout, easy to work with, respectful, open minded to what we wanted and did their absolute best to make our vision come true, and they nailed it. Very reasonable and most importantly in this type of process, trustworthy. Highly recommend them if you're looking for anytime similar to what we did.

    I apologize now for what may be a lengthy review. I contacted Central Builders for several projects…read more- new fencing for a 1/2 acre lot, a new deck, a new front walkway and a sump pump to stop our garage from flooding. The fencing bid was in line with the others I received but two of my three neighbors are refusing to replace the downed fences so that project did not move forward. I will write a second review for the new walkway and sump pump because this deck review is pretty long! The deck project - I had already had someone remove the old deck so Vic and his crew were setting the foundation and installing a new Trex deck. Vic went the extra mile in meeting my requests and multiple rebids and change requests before even getting the job. Excellent customer service before I was a customer. I had three other bids that were all at a much higher cost. After going to the lumber yard to see samples of the Trex boards and to select my color, I decided to upgrade the materials to the best and highest Trex boards. I cannot for the life of me figure out why the other bidders were so high. They bid the 2nd to lowest level Trex boards and then they nearly doubled the supply cost. Central Builders had a very reasonable mark up on the boards, especially considering they had to order it, pick it up and deliver it all to my location. The crew arrived on time every day. Kept the work area clean. Kept me informed throughout the process and started and finished when promised. They took extra care to make sure the deck was level and added an extra support for a very heavy plant pot that would be going in the rear corner. The job included adding LED lighting to the steps and accommodating my under house vents by cutting ventilation in to the deck supports. I had asked that the front of the deck be sealed in a way that would prevent skunks from getting under it. The crew not only added a wire mesh barrier under the facia board, they painted it black so it would blend in and not be obvious. And last but not least, in t he pictures, note the downspout to the deck. Vic altered and bought a proper end spout so we can attach a hose in the winter to redirect the water so we don't get moisture under the deck. Going the extra mile. Super happy with how this project went!!! I highly recommend Central Builders!

    Our new ADU was intended for family members to use when visiting but we've been surprising…read moreourselves by using it for our own personal relaxation. Worked with A+ Construction PRO. One thing what people don't talk about enough is the sheer number of decisions you have to make in order to get our house completed. From flooring and fixtures to decisions about interior layout and even details as small as outlet placement, the number of decisions seemed to never end. At some point we were just tired of choosing. I was a bit worried when the framing went up but after discussing it with Nick it was just something that wasn't clearly rendered in the plans and ended up being correct. My brain doesn't very well translate from paper to reality so I appreciated Nick walking me through the reasoning behind it. There was a very minor glitch with the bathroom vanity install - it came in slightly different but that was corrected with a substitute product and took a couple of extra days to complete. Once finished it feels like a really comfortable space - quiet, bright but not too bright and doesn't feel separate from the house. The best thing is its versatility. We've used it for our family to stay there, we've used it as an office and sometimes just extra space.

    We thought our ADU was going to be a fairly straightforward process but it didn't turn out that…read moreway. But through it all A+ Construction & Remodeling handled everything professionally and made sure everything got completed to our satisfaction even though the project was fraught with last minute changes and last minute repairs needed. I would highly recommend A+. They were finished just in time - really the hardest part was before all that, going through plan, revision, city comment and then more revision cycles. I even thought we were done with drawings once, before more corrections were found. Once construction started, it started to feel like real progress was taking place. It wasn't ever perfect, some weeks would drag on with nothing going on and then we'd wake up to find that someone had done a bunch of work for last days - especially the process when all of the framing, rough-in plumbing and electrical all happened simultaneously. I got a bit frustrated for a day or so when the windows delivery was delayed but once the new stock arrived the guys were straight back on track again. We also found a few minor hitches but the management were very efficient in rectifying them before we had to bring it up. Once it was finished, I really liked that it wasn't some flimsy, "temp" addition. It felt like a real small house. ADUs look easy but in reality are more complicated. Thank goodness you have a team that can see it through to the end! Thank you A+ Team! In particular thank you Nick and Olga from the constuction and permit teams.

I have done a lot of work over the years and am happy to say that if you live in this area, he is your guy. He was fair and honest from the get go. The price he gives you is the price you will pay. I never received any surprise "change orders". As contractors go, Omar was VERY open and communicative. No problems ever getting him or his crew on the phone. He had great suggestions on all things we discussed. Always seemed to know a lot about his work and various things people like. The project was a big one, and I am super happy with how fast it went. He even got started for us over Thanksgiving and Xmas, and his crew would show up on Saturday or Sunday sometimes to keep on working (which was fine with us!). There were no subcontractors involved... everything was through Noor Construction. If we had any minor issues that needed correcting, Omar would come and look at it and tell his crew what to do. We really appreciate the details, crown molding and trim was superbly done, and the tile was just amazing, we are very impressed with his team. I mean seriously anyone who has attempted to do crown molding in the past knows what I am talking about. For details if you've made it this far, our story: Where shall I start. I suppose we start with the idea: build a bedroom in the second floor space of our "great room" which has really tall ceilings... like 30 feet plus. So basically add a bedroom in the second story "empty space" above the first floor. Easy right? Well, after getting ghosted by several contractors, I finally called Omar. He informed he thought we were probably getting ghosted because the architect had told him that footings were needed to support this new bedroom which would be sort of like an island in the middle of the house. We live on a hill, so these support columns would have to go through the first floor, basement, and then under the house. This added to the cost, but we really wanted a bedroom in that space. Omar gave me a price. I told him no thanks, my wife and I thought well maybe we changed our mind as the cost came in higher with the footing work. After a few weeks, we talked it over, changed our minds. We really needed the bedroom. I called him, thinking "gosh he probably won't want our work". Omar came back, no change in price, same deal as before, he didn't even bat an eye, he was ready to go, and this was like 4 weeks later after I told him no. So yea, it was project that I was told was too much for people, everyone didn't want to go get permits or deal with the footings... Omar told us what to expect and stuck to the plan. He dealt with the County and the inspector always came and said even himself "these guys know what they are doing". We passed all inspections. Omar even was super flexible about adding things to the project as we went along, as you know I get ideas about what I might want, we added some carpeting and shelving, and additional tile work that he added at no additional cost to him. He really just knows what he is doing and is super on top of things. So go with Noor Construction if you have the chance, you won't regret it!

It was a fun new homeowner surprise to realize it was impossible to remove the broken machine without first removing the vanity, which was too large for the space and prevented the machine from fitting out the door. To begin the process, Ellie asked us to send photos of bathrooms we liked. I appreciated this ask because it helped me get a sense of what I like as well as communicate that to the team. They then presented us with a computer rendered design that checked all our boxes, and incorporated our style in ways I had not imagined. Olive Homes really helped us problem solve to maximize storage in our one and only tiny, very narrow bathroom. Now that the job is complete, our bathroom is much more functional with all available space thoughtfully appointed. Olive Homes helped make the best of what we have, and it looks gorgeous! I'm a landscape designer and artist, so I'm detail oriented and fairly picky about aesthetics. Ellie was patient with me and helped locate materials that satisfied me and expressed our style while remaining cohesive with the house. Ellie was able to break the tie when I couldn't decide between a few colors or styles. We also added a few items to our job along the way, and Olive Homes was very accommodating. The only reason for 4 stars is because there were some hiccups/ road blocks over the course of the job, and it ended up taking quite a bit longer than anticipated. Most of that was out of any of our control, due to long shipping delays for materials and our additions to the project. Olive homes creatively and effectively resolved all issues as they arose, and the final result is fantastic! We're very happy with how it turned out, and thankful to everyone who helped make it happen.
