He was communicative throughout, came in on budget and under the timeline, and exceeded our expectations. We cannot recommend Martin more highly!

Highly recommend, 10/10. Thanks so much guys!! See you next project :)

In July/August, we experienced a ceiling leak that caused significant damage throughout our home, impacting two bathrooms, the playroom, entryway hallway, and laundry room. After water mitigation and demolition were completed, we were left needing extensive repairs and full remodels of the affected areas. This was our first time dealing with a major home issue, and navigating insurance, contractors, and conflicting opinions felt overwhelming and stressful. I spoke with several contractors and received multiple estimates, but Alan stood out immediately. He was the first to respond and the first to give clear, straightforward, and honest answers. Beyond that, Alan is genuinely such a fun and easygoing person to work with, which made a stressful situation feel much more manageable. He has a great eye for design and prioritizes top-notch materials while still being realistic and respectful of budget. He guided us through the design process, helped with material selection, and made thoughtful recommendations every step of the way. Marlon and Emmanuel are incredibly knowledgeable, respectful, and truly kind. They treated our home with care and always took the time to explain what they were doing, which made us feel confident and at ease throughout the process. Fast forward to today, we finally have our home back -- and we couldn't be happier with the results! Not having functional bathrooms and access to certain rooms for months took a toll on our family and our mental health. Click Construction stepped in during a very difficult time and helped restore not just our home, but our peace of mind. My only regret is not finding them sooner. I've attached before-and-after photos so you can see the incredible transformation for yourself. I highly recommend Click Construction to anyone looking for quality work, honesty, and a team that truly cares.

When we bought our almost 100 year old Wardman rowhouse in Woodley Park in 2000, it needed a new…read morekitchen, and a new kitchen meant an opportunity to install a half-bath on the main level that the Wardmans never had. However, the logistics of a renovation kept us from proceeding year after year. In 2015, after eleven years of renters, the house could no longer withstand the wear and tear, and we contacted Eric Goetz at Blue Star who came highly recommended from a friend who was very familiar with what it takes to do a successful DC renovation. We had spent 15 years trying to figure out how to seamlessly add a bathroom where one never existed. Blue Star's design team improved upon our ideas and helped us transform our first floor into an updated, functional space while retaining the 1920's character of the house. The bigger challenge for our renovation was timing. We needed the project completed in the one month that our tenants would be away on vacation. The renovation was complex - extend the short porch at the back to the house to the shared property line, move the rear entry to the other side, convert a small hall closet into a half-bath, install a new modern kitchen and enlarge it into the porch area, and replace the original hardwood floors. No one including other workmen and the above-mentioned friend thought this work could get done successfully in the limited time we had. No one except Blue Star. Eric and his team worked with us from start to finish to ensure that everything was in place (permits, materials, subcontractors) so that work could begin on the first day and be complete before the tenants returned. Blue Star worked through the inevitable bumps in the road, unexpected complications, and incredibly did it all in 21 days! We now have a new kitchen that is bright, light and open, beautiful new floors, and a sleek powder room for guests. Even more important was how great it was to work with Eric and his team. They were never flustered, even though our tenant made things more difficult than anyone could imagine, including pushing the work off for another year, and, yes, the police were involved. Blue Star stood by us and worked collaboratively. They were transparent about everything that needed to be done and how it got done, and kept us up to date on almost a daily basis with the work's progress as we were not in DC for most of the project's planning and execution. Blue Star knows DC building requirements inside out and worked through all the city's bureaucracy unfazed. They are also incredible problem solvers as old DC houses can throw all kinds of issues at you once the drywall comes down. Blue Star came in on budget and ahead of a very, very tight and critical schedule. We highly recommend them to anyone considering a renovation.
