Consider using a different company. They showed up the first day not prepared to do the job. I had to drive 30 minutes to purchase supplies for them and then, after the first day, they never came back until I threatened to cancel them and hire another company (as I hadn't paid yet I was in a better position). They finally showed up several days later just hours before the deadline I gave them. No call no communication at all. There was another company on their way to give another estimate for the remaining work when they finally showed. But after the work was completed the owner would call/text several times a day looking for payment. So he clearly knew how to call and text just not when I was calling and texting trying to figure out why they were not showing up to finish the job. read more

Messaged multiple times with no response, they came out to the property and never followed up with an estimate or any information about our project. Not a great way to treat potential customers. This process is already enough of a pain without having to track down someone to accept your business. read more

This started well! Christian responded quickly and came over same day to provide an estimate. He requested my email and said he will provide an estimate within the hour. Then he disappeared! Never got anything, waited a few days, still nothing. I sent a nice message, still nothing, wrote another nice message, still nothing. Then I wrote a not so nice message letting him know I will write about his customer service in a review. Guess what? I got a reply. They will not be able to provide service now. Because I am clearly not a nice guy. Judge this on your own. But I find this to be very unprofessional conduct and cannot recommend them to anyone. Sends very untrustworthy vibes and is disrespectful to potential customers. This guy will "just disappear" on you! read more

We had several small repairs and changes to be done with the exterior of the house and CIF was able to get them all done well and in good time. The quote was reasonable and we're happy with the final result. read more

I initially hired CIF Construction for a small project and was very satisfied with the work. When I later noticed a few minor imperfections, I reached out to the project manager, who assured me that someone would come by to address the issues. Unfortunately, no one ever showed up, and my follow-up texts and calls went unanswered. I decided to let it go, as the imperfections were relatively minor. More recently, I contacted CIF for additional home projects based on my overall positive first experience. The project manager--whose name I'll leave out--was very responsive at the beginning and told me a crew would arrive that Friday. When I reached out that morning to confirm the arrival time, I received no response. I followed up via text on Monday and again on Tuesday, but still heard nothing. On Wednesday, I called and was finally able to speak with the project manager, who apologized for the lack of communication and promised to send a revised quote that day, as I had added a few more items to the scope of work. That quote never arrived. After a few more days of silence, I sent a follow-up text asking whether he was still interested in the project, noting the urgency due to potential water damage. I never received a reply. I understand if a contractor is unable to take on a job. However, the complete lack of communication and follow-through is unacceptable. I'm very disappointed in the customer service, especially given the time-sensitive nature of the repairs. This delay has left me scrambling to find another contractor for a potentially serious issue that should have been addressed promptly. read more

We used CIF construction and design for repairs in our kitchen. From the free estimate until the repairs were completed, everyone that we dealt with was very courteous and professional! We were given a very reasonable price and all aspects of the job were explained to us. We would absolutely use this company again! read more

Fixed the main door latch and the crack on the door frame . I like the work done . I can recommend this contractor

The CIF team completed an extcaulking project around my pool deck & stairway today. Their price was very fair! The quality of the work was far better than others before them. The PM, Christian, was very accommodating and addressed each of our concerns quickly. The installation team were very professional, friendly and cleaned up each day. We are very pleased with the final end product and would use CIF again. read more

Amazing service! Had to have a door jamb repaired. Ivan showed up on time and finished in no time! Very competitively priced and friendly. I will definitely be using this team again! read more

I've used CIF's services for the 2nd time, this past week, when I needed some dry wall patching. They were flexible, working with my family's busy schedule. The quality of the work was great. They are reasonably priced. Past work we've contracted them for was anchoring our deck and various other projects when we moved into our house. For any future projects around the house, I'll probably go straight to CIF. read more

This was the worst contractor experience I've had. The workers didn't show up for the second day - nobody bothered to call and let us know, so we sat around waiting. When they did finally return (after several phone calls), they didn't complete the work as promised. When interviewing contractors, I specifically said I wanted the shower regrouted - CIF said it was no problem. When I inspected the finished work, he had re-caulked it and said "You must have been confused." Well NO, actually - I would never pay someone to caulk anything. It's incredibly easy and I've done it many times before. I asked for grout. I discussed this with EVERY contractor that came out and I thought that this is why CIF's quote was so high, as the other two did not perform grout work. Completely tried to gaslight me when I pointed it out during the walkthrough. Since then, we've heard nothing. No phone calls, emails or texts have been returned. They didn't provide a detailed invoice and photos, as agreed, for the insurance claim. They were wholly unprofessional and I'm regretting that I paid them on the first day before the work was completed, as now I'm having to file a dispute with my credit card company over this and probably hire an attorney. **EDIT** The Project Manager took the time to respond to my Yelp review, but still hasn't responded to any phone calls, emails or texts. AVOID AVOID AVOID - or at the very least do NOT pay them until they do everything they promised and do it professionally. read more

I am very happy with the work. The team communicated well. Moved up the date of repair when snow was forecasted after asking if that was okay. The repair was done correctly, in one day at a fair price. read more

Very nice, helpful, responsive. Made our job easy and convenient. Very quick turnaround, was able to send people the same day. Very helpful and did great work. Was also the lowest quote we received, not by a ton but was certainly great that they were the lowest and still did quality work. Very friendly repairmen and owner. All positive! read more

CIF Construction was extremely professional in all their efforts. The guys arrived on time, laid down plastic wraps all over the work zones to protect the floors, appliances, etc. They immediately went to work and did a stellar job at my drywall repairs. I had 4 different places that had to be patched due to a water line issue. At the end, you can not see any indication that the drywall was patched. Superb work! The professional work done was extremely worth it in cost! Christian was communicative and very responsive throughout the entire effort of estimating, hiring, and finalizing the job. They are definitely a company to hire at any time! ============================ UPDATED While the initial work was great as previously mentioned, I did have the son of the business come by to provide estimates on three follow on projects. However, it has been 3 weeks and still unable to obtain any estimates for the following projects: bathroom remodel, patio covering, and a grill station (or shed area - undecided). He was prompt to arrive and offered suggestions but we have been waiting on the estimates but there has been no response. Therefore, due to the communication challenges (only) for future work, I have downgraded the review to 3 stars. read more

CIF Construction was quick and responsive and did a great job with the work. Thank you!

Christian and team came out very quickly, were very responsive and did a great job! Highly recommend for home improvement projects!

Hired these guys to replace my door frame on my home that had deteriorated. They showed up on time and did an exceptional job, door frame is beautiful again. Would use again and recommend to anyone. read more

This company is great. Estimates more than fair. They show up when they say they will be there and all the workers are respectful and talented. Workmanship is outstanding. Would hire them again in a heartbeat. read more

CIF Construction did a superb job repairing the door frame and reinforcing my home's front door. From the moment communication was established with Christian through the completion of the project the professionalism of all involved was above and beyond. The entire project was supervised by Mr Ivan. The end result was of great quality. Strongly recommend their services. Thank you for a job well done! read more

Ivan, Christian and Daniel did a great job taking our basic design for our laundry room finish and building something truly amazing. We trusted them with the keys to our house so that when we came back from vacation, we were welcomed to a brand new room that I can use for my office and music studio as well as laundry. The price was competitive and work was completed on time. Thank you CIF! read more

Best in the business servicing the DMV area! Christian and his team did a great job installing recessed lights in our newly purchased home last year and we decided to hire them again this month to install a fence to close off our back yard. The CIF team as a whole is very knowledgeable, was able to find different price options for us to stay within budget, and over all provided QUALITY work (which is hard to find in our area at times). Will definitely hire this team again for other home projects we have in mind. read more

Look no further, CIF Construction and Design is the company you want to hire. Trust me on this one. Christian and Ivan are incredibly professional, creative, resourceful, and masters at their craft, and I can't recommend them enough. I've had them do a large variety of random projects around my house, (always competitively and reasonably priced), most of which required creativity to make them happen, and they always took each request in stride. All employees of the company, to include Daniel and Nico and all others who have helped me over time, are incredibly respectful, friendly, and truly care about the quality of their work. They've helped me with transforming my awesome laundry room into a combo laundry/kitchenette, which was no small task considering I purchased all items secondhand, and the crew had to think up creative ways to make everything work in the space. They take care of every little detail, always going above and beyond what I ask for, and I couldn't be happier. They've also thought of creative solutions for problems I had with my fence to ensure my dog didn't escape, as well as built a gorgeous set of stairs for the back of my house since the original was falling apart. They've helped with issues I've had with water entering my basement and kitchen, fixing my French drain, performing odd jobs such as installing a tricky barn door, as well as figuring out ways to fix my complicated front railings, installing a water heater, and installing gutter guards. They are my go to for EVERY project, and I can't say enough positive things about this incredible company. Thank you, CIF Construction and Design! read more

Had a consultation scheduled for 8:30am, assigned by them. Messaged them the morning of the appointment to confirm they were still coming. They read my message and did not reply. They still did not arrive and I sat around waiting for over an hour and now I am late for work. That is very unprofessional and no regard for their clients time. read more

Our small modern bathroom turned out amazing. Their attention to detail made sure our tile pattern looked great. They always consulted us whenever there was even a small design choice. They wore COVID masks the whole time (as did we) and left the place clean every evening during the 2-week project. Highly recommended. read more
