If I could give Talon Construction more than five stars, I absolutely would. From the very…read morebeginning, the entire team was professional, coordinated, and incredibly knowledgeable. They somehow turned what is typically a very stressful process into a smooth and collaborative one. We interviewed nine contractors before choosing Talon for a full gut renovation of our home. Talon stood out immediately as the most professional and detail-oriented team we met. We first connected with Darren in 2023, and his depth of knowledge was apparent from the beginning. He pointed out practical design considerations and code requirements that other contractors had missed. We went back and forth on the scope for over a year, and he was consistently patient, responsive, and generous with his time. He never rushed us and always made himself available to answer questions. We started construction in August 2025-- The construction crew had an excellent work ethic. They arrived early and worked hard - something even our neighbors commented on. They took pride in their work and paid close attention to details. The workmanship was just excellent. The work site was consistently clean and organized. They did a great job at handling unexpected situations and communicating that to me. Eddie took the time to explain everything thoroughly before moving forward. Even when we made scope changes, they were flexible and incorporated those changes without making it feel stressful or complicated. And probably the thing that impressed me the most was that they ran the whole project with integrity. They uncovered an improperly vented dryer which was a fire hazard and promptly brought it up to code. There were other moments like this throughout the project- too many to fully capture here - that consistently reinforced how much they value doing things the right way. I have to mention Eddie who was incredible throughout the entire process. He was calm, responsive and communicated clearly. He seriously made the entire project enjoyable. They were fair and transparent when it came to pricing and change orders. But more than anything, what I appreciated the most was their integrity, professionalism and genuinely caring about doing a good job. Everyone- Ed, Paul, Darren, Eddie and the construction crew were top notch. We honestly couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. I would highly recommend Talon and would definitely work with them again!

The crews are respectful, care about your home and the outcome of the job, paying attention to every detail. All projects have issues and when they happen, the crews and back office work professionally to determine the best path forward for everyone involved (not just the company). They work on their reputation and will go above and beyond to protect it. They won't be the cheapest, but if you believe "you get what you pay for" Talon is worth it.

Of the four contractors contacted, Wesly responded quickly and was at our house the next day asking all the right questions. we also discussed two other projects, more in just passing, but interested in what she would come back with. Within a day, she came back with a series of quotes, one for the stair job we needed, which was very reasonable and for a design that worked very well. Her team showed up the next day and were efficient and very detailed. Our three step project was done in a day and looked great! Although we told Wesly the price on the other patio resurface project was a bit more than we were ready to take on, didn't stop her from finding another option that cut the cost using a ceramic tile that offered better wear, more color options and a design that better matched our house. We could afford that! We were also able to redo a ghastly concrete step from our den that a prior owner bought at Home Depot and dumped in place. Wasn't to code either. The Team was back out and did a marvelous job! They were there three days, morning to late evening getting the job done. The result updated the back of our house, the slate and brick step off the den was to code and the patio was comfortable to walk on and made my wife's patio set look really good. Short story: J & J Quality was a real find and we are already talking about another project! if you need a job done right and for a good price, give Wesly and Team a call.

I would 100% refer Rolando and Sterling General Contractor to others, and will continue to hire him…read morefor future work at our home. His attention to detail and commitment to ensuring tasks were not only completed, but done correctly ensured me this was a solid investment. Construction always has bumps along the way like permits and items unseen when work gets on its way but Rolando was always impeccable with his communication and his hard work and extra hours when needed did not go unnoticed. On a personal note, It pleased me that he took a little moment each day to play with my dog and ensure she was safe while they worked (she didn't like the loud noises). He also made sure that his work space was clean and tidy each day when he was done. Throughout our conversations I felt like I could trust him with opinions when I had questions along the way. The finished product was beyond my expectations and we are now planning for our next remodel.

Rolando discussed our plans with us the entire way and was super helpuful, patient, and flexible when we would change our plans. He had insightful advice and did a great job of really listening to what we wanted. He guided us through every step and made an overwhelming process stress-free. He was great to work with given we needed a lot of help with design. He worked within our agreed-upon budget and pricing was very fair compared to other contractors we met with. Work began and the amount of care for our home, lifestyle, and craftsmanship was evident from day one. We are now using our completed bathroom and every day we are so excited. The attention to detail and building exactly what we wanted was unmatched. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who has a home project to be done. We are also excited to have found a reputable, respectable, trustworthy company to partner with again in the future. Thank you doesn't seem like enough to this company. Well done!

From start to finish DPS handled everything and kept me informed of the progress. They submitted estimates to my insurance, scheduled the various tradesmen, and even handled a change in scope after an electrical inspection uncovered additional damage.

He inspected the work as it was completed and wanted to be sure I was happy with the progress and quality of the work.

As is often the case, we needed to lower the basement floor and our worst fears came to pass- it needed underpinning as well. Well, what could have been a painful nightmare turned out to be a smooth and seamless process. Not cheap, of course, but for the sheer amount of work done and earth removed (it really is breathtaking how they managed to fit so many bulldozers into a rowhouse basement!!) the price is reasonable, especially compared to other companies that we shopped around for. But these guys know their stuff, DC basements are their bread and butter and they expertly navigate everything from the crazy labyrinth of DC permitting to sweating all the little details to make the project go off without a hitch. The work quality is awesome and we are very happy with the final outcome. Everyone who sees the space is impressed and actually blown away. What really made the experience so pleasant is the team. Eric was so good in guiding the overall strategy and helping us make critical decisions. Gheorghe, our project manager, was the best - exceptionally efficient, knowledgeable, respectful and calmly reassuring. Shanae was extremely helpful when it came time for selections and interior design, and Elena was a life saver when it came to administrative issues and so patient with all my emails. You could tell that everyone in the team was there to help. As other reviewers noted, whenever something was requested the answer was always "yes, we will get it done." And they did. Which brings me to the other aspect that is so critical and comforting when choosing and dealing with a contractor, and that is integrity and follow through after the project is done. There is a one year warranty and in any project there are some issues that crop up. No matter what I needed fixed or adjusted, it got taken care of right away without any pushback or friction. Bottom line, you do not have to worry about getting screwed over or having headaches with this company. You can rest easy, the work is very high quality to begin with, and any fixes will be remedied until you are absolutely satisfied. All I can say is, don't hesitate to hire basement remodelers, you will not be disappointed.

It was nice to just work with a small team because I could text John when things came up and he would respond right away. We had a fiasco unfold with our kitchen project in which the designer who had ordered the cabinets delayed our project because he hadn't paid for the cabinet order in full. It was a nightmare and delayed our project at least a month. John was frustrated but never charged us a penny for his down time and really tried to make the difficult situation more manageable. We're now in our kitchen and that whole nightmare is a distant memory, largely because John made it work. He's very competitive on price too. He came to us by word of mouth...the best way to find a reliable contractor!
