    Before and after photos of our master bath, guest bath, and kitchen!

    My husband and I wanted a bathroom and kitchen makeover but did NOT want to pay crazy prices as we will be moving in a couple years. When I found Mike and Island Transformations on Yelp, I sent them a message and 10 minutes later, mike was calling me to schedule an in person consultation. We did the consultation and got the estimate for the work... WOW. So affordable. We waited a We waited a few months to pull the trigger. But when we did, we were so happy with the results! Not only did Mike and his team get our kitchen and bathroom makeovers done in an incredibly timely manner, Mike was always available to take my text messages and phone calls! I highly highly Recommend Island Transformations if you are looking for a cost effective and great way to update spaces in your house!

    Before

    My bathtub needed refinishing. There was a 3-4" crack near the drain area that accumulated some brownish substance beneath and was grossing out my uh...long term house guest. And i was getting tired of taking showers only because not knowing what was in that crack made the thought of taking a bath in there rather repugnant. After some extensive research, i requested quotes from a bunch of companies. I received a surprising wide range of quotes but chose Island Transformations after Tom assessed the scope because he demonstrated a good depth of knowledge. By that time, the crack had grown into something rather disgusting. Tom agreed to change the overflow drain cover as well, which dated back to the original construction and appeared quite corroded. Although the drain cover is normally left exposed, the existing one was so tarnished I requested it be painted over since removal required a special plumbing tool. Everything went smoothly on the scheduled day. They did a decent job of protecting the walls and floor of my miniature bathroom. The finish was barely completed before the neighborhood lost power. The next day, Tom returned to evaluate the work. The paint reacted badly to the remnants of the previous coating and required some adjustment. The final product looks satisfyingly presentable. I look forward to bath bombs again.

    I needed to reglaze a tub that looked horrible with rust, that was causing a crack. I contacted a few companies but Mike called me back right away and set up a time to look at the tub the next day. Tom, his partner, looked at the tub and gave me several options, including touching up versus refinishing from scratch, which obviously cost more. I didn't feel pressured to spend more money than necessary and he explained that the touch up over the old paint would look just as good. I liked that he was on hand to give me an estimate versus a general quote over the phone. JJ came by the following day to literally wrap up and tape up the bathroom to avoid the overspray and dust. I was very impressed because I had this done previously years ago with a different company and it was not as nearly thoroughly covered. They even made a mock curtain to the bathroom entry to keep the fumes contained. Very much appreciated. JJ did the basics and Mike came to patch up and spray the tub. Following day, JJ came by to take down all the covering and finish up the process. The tub looked beautiful, however I did find a few small depressions on the paint and called Mike to get them looked at. Tom came by the following day to buff out the tub and touch it up to my satisfaction. Mike and Tom are professionals and they are good at what they do. I was told that there is a warranty and hopefully I won't need to utilize this option but if I do, I think they would make it right and make me happy. Overall, very happy with the tub, price and the service. I'd definitely refer my friends to this company.

    Tub before the job

    Tom responded to my request promptly and set up a time to come do an estimate. He determined my tub was in good shape and a good polishing should make it look nice again. He didn't think it needed to be repainted. We also agreed on grout shield to be applied to the floors as well as the edge of the tub. Mike scheduled the job on yelp and was quick to respond. Steve checked in with me the night before the job. He double checked what we were doing in the bathroom and we decided on a start time. The next day, Steve came out and was so nice and polite. He explained what how the job would go and that he would check in with us here and there. He scrubbed the heck out of the floor and grout. Then he went to town polishing the tub. He had me come look at progress and explained some stubborn spots and why they weren't coming out. He then polished again. At the end, he did applied the grout shield after we looked at the color that matched the best. He was at our house for about 5 hours and really did an excellent job on the tub and floors. True professional Tom came later to get payment and the seal the toilet since we talked about that in the estimate. We also talked a possible future job in the kitchen. I highly recommend these guys. They know their stuff, do quality work and are fair with their prices. I will be contacting them again.

    My husband and I have been needing to do something about our kitchen for a long time. We had an old formica countertop that was falling apart and the cabinets were really bad. We thought we were going to have to spend $10,000 -15000 to replace them but then we found Island transformations and Tom explained that we could save the countertops and cabinets and make them practically new again and would save more than a third of what I thought . In a couple of days we had a brand new kitchen. Tom and his team were very respectful and polite.. they worked hard everyday and were very professional. After the kitchen turned out so well we decided to have them do our walk-in shower. Needless to say it turned out wonderful and brightened up the bathroom!! Everyone should know about this company! They can do miracles!

    Shower walls...check out the shine!
    Ken L.

    Didn't want to spend a ton of money on this rental repair. Found these guys on YELP! Tom was easy to work with and did a great job on my tub and walls. Brought back the sheen and slick, new finish to my 10 year old bathtub. Also had him refinish the sink. There's a process that makes the faux marble counter look and feel like granite. He had a tough time in the bowl of the sink because it wasn't a straight edge so there was a blemish but overall looked good. Nice job at a reasonable price. Def would use his services again.

    I would 100% recommend these guys, Tom is very hardworking and knowledgeable. Process took one full day and it turned out amazing. Saved me money and looks just as great and a brand new remodel! Thanks Tom!

    I got my tubs polished and they look brand new! From being stained and ugly to new looking in just a few hours, I was amazed. The cost was on par with what I'd researched. I would definitely recommend Island Transformations.

Spencer, from Kurihara Contracting, was different. He got back to us and quickly and scheduled a visit. Upon meeting him, we felt very at ease and comfortable. He was very knowledgable and seemed to be a straight shooter (I wanted some storage over the toilet and he straight up told me that would be weird because it would block the bathroom window). After listening to what we were thinking, he came up with a plan and gave us an estimate. We didn't get any renderings (not sure if bathroom renovations get those?) but we knew he knew what he was doing, so it wasn't really an issue - Mom and I were trusting he and his team's professionalism and it worked! Did we have any idea of the cost of a bathroom renovation? No. Was it more than I imagined it to be? Honestly, yes. But after the job was done, did I think it was worth it? ABSOLUTELY YES. The job Kurihara Contracting did with our master bathroom was AWESOME. And I think with this company, you get what you pay for - The professionalism, consideration, final product...chef's kiss! Our bathroom looks so much larger and brighter! We just love it. We were also able to upgrade to a toilet we wanted (something really important to my mom ;D). Thank you, Spencer and Crew for our bathroom transformation! My hope is that we save up money to do more renovations and we can use your services!

He took the initiative to call me once he got there, and we walked through all the repairs giving me peace of mind that everything will finally be taken care of correctly. He's also very quick with responding to your call/texts. I appreciated Charles giving me several options with different estimates to help me with the budget I'm working with, especially since he was there to repair another company's bad mistakes, which meant I'm paying twice for the same repairs. He went as far as to give me a list of materials he would need so I could review and approve it, before he proceeded, giving me the opportunity to look for lower prices if I found it. As all of the repairs progressed he sent me photos and videos before leaving the job site, with explanations on what was done that day. His experience, professionalism as well as his willingness to work with you deserves more than the 5 stars allowed.

Beyond Builders and their staff were communicative and understanding from start to finish! In our initial meetings with Josh and Tomoko, they carefully listened to our desired outcomes and focused on staying within a set budget we were comfortable with (cuz economy's tough y'know?). Once the contract was signed, 3D designs were promptly drafted which gave us several options to choose from, they guided us through obtaining required items for the material list, and once everything was ready a start date was set. They were very patient with us, we never felt rushed, and our desired outcomes were always prioritized. Junior and Ming were the leads on the renovation portion, and MAN do they work efficiently! They said it would take two weeks, and they finished in two weeks. One thing I appreciate about their crew was the communication on progress and collaborative questions. For example, before installing handles on the cabinets they would ask beforehand how we'd like them placed. They always made sure it was being made the way we wanted. At the end of the renovation, the kitchen felt like something out of a movie set. As you can tell in the attached pictures, the before pictures (green, walled) and after pictures (open, white countertop) is night and day. They were doing such a good job that I had to request a change order to install a new vanity in our bathroom to replace the old one haha. All in all, Beyond Builders was a pleasure to work with. Our family is so happy with the renovation and we already plan to hit them up for future projects (when we have the funds). Big shout out to Josh, Tomoko, Junior, Ming and their crew!

We did our due diligence by checking with the Better Business Bureau, Regulated Industries Complaints Office, DCCA Professional Vocational Licensing and the BIA to make sure there were no complaints or red flags. We found the reviews from people who used them very helpful. We met with Pan and told him that our home was built in 1960 with single-wall construction. Pan said that his construction company was familiar and has worked on other homes with single-wall construction. Our bathtub had a leak and because the tub surround is original, it would have to be replaced. Instead of just changing out the tub, we decided to do a complete bathroom renovation so that we would be able to "age in place." Pan looked at everything we wanted to have done and gave us a reasonable estimate and a timeline of 2-3 weeks, which was within our budget and timeframe. Our project started four days after the proposed start date due to his workers having to work on another project that was running behind schedule due to the rain the week before. When the crew started our job, they came every day. There was one day when the assigned worker called in sick so no work was done that day. They made up for it the next day by having two workers come to catch up. Our project was completed exactly 2 weeks from when they started. The workers of Fu Long Construction are very hard working, they are punctual, respectful, neat and friendly. At the end of every day they cleaned up their work area and collected their rubbish to take with them. Most of the crew did not speak much English but fortunately, the older workers were paired with a younger worker who did speak and understood English. I would use the younger worker to communicate with the older worker if there was something we questioned. If we had any pressing questions or concerns, we would text or call Pan and he would either text back or he would show up at our house to address our concerns. Working with Pan of Fu Long Construction was not like the horror stories we've heard other people having with other construction companies. We were impressed with Pan's professionalism and our bathroom renovation was a pleasant experience and our bathroom turned out BEAUTIFUL!!!
