Bathroom remodel
Julie R.

PK Remodeling did a lower level room reconfiguration and complete bathroom renovation down to the joists in our 1940's craftsman house with all plumbing lines + electrical replaced. As an architect working on my own home, I was impressed that Piotrek and his crew did not cut corners and had attention to detail. Piotrek collaborated on the construction details and I appreciated his communication and input into the resolution of some of the more tricky aspects of the design. The cleanliness of the construction site was also impeccable. I was very pregnant at the time and appreciated the plastic partitions that were installed, masks that were worn and the crew vacuuming at the end of every day leaving as little construction dust as possible. Contractors like this are hard to come by and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Piotrek for any project. I've attached photos of the finished work.

Just had Piotr and his team do a full remodel of our kitchen and family room and it was a wonderful experience! Starting from the estimate process, Piotr was one of the only contractors that not only showed up when he said he would, but actually replied with a bid and to any questions I had. (Bonus points for not talking to me like I had no idea what I was talking about!) He was definitely not the cheapest bid we got, but he was also definitely not the most expensive. His team of Jesus and Armando did the bulk of the work, and I think there is seriously nothing they can't do. I'm a pretty big perfectionist on the little details that often get rushed through by contractors, so I'd go in at the end of the day looking for the things to bring up the next day... but couldn't find any. These guys were thoughtful, careful, kind, and thorough. All 3 were perfectionists - I can't say enough. I was able to stop worrying about the details b/c I knew they would never put up with something not done exactly right. They were also fun to have around - all 3 had fun senses of humor :) Piotr has very strong aesthetic opinions too - some were great ideas I hadn't thought of, some I vetoed, but it was nice to hear different opinions. I had done my best to have the details and scope of the project figured out ahead of time so there weren't many changes that had to be made, but they were flexible when little things inevitably came up. The only thing that didn't go as smoothly was refinishing our wood floors. The first contractor he brought it did a sub-par job. He re-did it, but it still didn't look great. Piotr agreed and told him there wouldn't be a third try. He then brought in a new contractor that was night and day difference (and I'm sure cost Piotr more), but it was nice not to have to fight to get the job done right. Piotr never made me feel like I needed to compromise my expectations. The other aspect of remodeling that I had heard from every friend that had ever remodeled in the Bay Area was that contractors consistently left the last ~10% unfinished since they already had most of their money and it wasn't worth their time to do the last details. This was absolutely not the case here. They have even come back for a couple small details long after getting their last payment. Definitely recommend PK Remodeling - no hesitation.

We made the extremely fortunate decision to hire Piotr and his team in late 2020 to take on the remodel of our newly purchased 1950s house in the East Bay. They began with re-roofing the house and then worked with us through much of 2021 to totally remodel the kitchen, reconfigure a couple bedrooms, completely transform two bathrooms, install new windows and new electrical wiring, and generally spruce up everything throughout. From the very beginning, it was clear that Piotr possesses an eye for design and attention to detail that sets him apart from many other contractors. We came to him with a mostly developed plan and he made a couple key design suggestions that we incorporated that ended up making a big difference for the project. Piotr worked with us patiently to finalize a scope of work that fit within our budget. His price for the project was quite fair - not the cheapest we could have found but definitely not the most expensive. Piotr works on a few projects simultaneously - His team is large enough to tackle most aspects of a project, calling in outside help for specialty task if needed, but the team is small enough that there was consistency in the project from beginning to end. (Did someone say tile setting? Armando is a complete magician.) Did everything go perfectly? No, I've worked on a lot of construction projects and nothing ever goes perfectly. We dealt with lots of material delays due to Covid supply chain issues. Mistakes were made. However, Piotr and his whole team take a lot of pride in their work, and they never hesitated throughout the project to fix something if it wasn't quite right. Also, when they were done with the project (and in fact at the end of most days during construction also) they left everything looking immaculate. We are so happy with the result! Of the contractors I've worked with over the years, very few of them have the combination of skill, attention to detail, and personal character that Piotr and his team do. My recommendation - Talk to several contractors, including Piotr. Once you meet him I bet you'll like him as much as we do.

The final product. We are very happy!

Piotr and his team remodeled our master bathroom and they have set a new bar for what I look for when engaging with a contractor. They were timely, precise, and clean during the entire process. Piotr showed up for our initial meeting on-time and provided a great set of suggestions to help re-imagine our bathroom. He started on-time and his team showed up right on time everyday. It was the same two guys (Edy & Francisco) who did all the work from initial demolition to the studs to all the rough-in to the final fish. The work was done with a great deal of care and precision and the final product looked outstanding. The team paid attention to every minor detail to ensure things were done perfectly. The team ended each day by cleaning their work area the access into by sweeping, swiffering, and vacuuming. Little details that go a long way to ensure that your house is livable when a project like this is going on for a few weeks. Finally, the communication with Piotr and his team was easy. With a dedicated team, there were no crossed wires and everything we needed was done well. Piotr did a great job at providing suggestions and working through any complications we had during the project. I highly recommend Piotr and PK Remodeling for any projects.

Working with PK Remodeling was a great experience. This was our first remodel after living in our house for 9 years. There was a lot we didn't know about gutting and rebuilding a kitchen. We have a Victorian house in Alameda that is over 120 years old so that presents its own set of challenges. These guys are definitely accustomed to working on these types of old houses. They even took care of pulling the permit with the city and getting it signed off on completion, which was a breeze. Our style is a little different and we had some very specific ideas about how we wanted our new kitchen to look. Piotr offered helpful functional + design ideas. He also helped us make some pretty big decisions and kept us from making a couple mistakes. We enjoyed working together. I appreciate that Piotr works with the same people all the time. We liked his crew. They were friendly and conscientious about our house and our living space. Being without a kitchen for any amount of time is not terribly convenient. But our whole remodel only took about two months. They work fast and they aren't spread out across multiple job sites. The guys were working on our place Monday - Friday almost every week. The couple of delays we had were mostly my fault as I didn't realize how long it would take to get things made/delivered. Their quality of work is also great. They pay attention to detail and make sure things are done right. We gave Piotr a budget and he worked within it. I felt like the rates he charged are reasonable and fair, especially in the Bay Area. He provided a bid that was clear and detailed with line items and costs for everything we discussed. Occasionally along the way things had to be adjusted or fixed but the small things didn't affect the cost. We decided halfway through that we wanted to add on a few additional items. We adjusted the bid accordingly because of the extra materials + labor but I never felt nickel-and-dimed. I would definitely recommend hiring PK Remodeling. We'll be having them back to do the bathrooms once we can get on their schedule.

I cannot say enough good things about Kent! He has helped us with the most important purchases…read morewe've made and with one of the most important things for our family (safety). While on the market for a house, our realtor contacted Kent for several verbal inspections. On one property that we were interested in making a bid on, we weren't sure if we needed a structural inspection because the house appeared well maintained and the lot was very flat. However, Kent came and told us this house would likely fall apart in a big earthquake, because it appeared never to have had any seismic retrofits since it was built 100 years ago. Bringing it up to current safety standards would likely be a huge project costing around $400k. We avoided a real lemon! Before making an offer on our current house, Kent also came. This house was in bad shape with a lot of deferred maintenance and borderline in a yellow zone on the Kropp map. However, Kent told us that the foundation looked good, seismic retrofits had been done probably in the last 20 years (so no further work was needed), and it was probably on bedrock. Sure enough, when we were replacing sewer laterals, the crew confirmed his evaluation (it was very difficult to dig and they had to drill a lot). At the same visit, we mentioned that we were going to see another house that just listed, which was more move-in ready. Kent advised us (free of charge!) that he already inspected that house and to avoid it completely. It was in a landslide zone and had already encroached into the neighbor's lot! That saved us a lot of time! Recently, I contacted Kent to evaluate our detached garage for seismic retrofitting, which to our knowledge had never been retrofitted since it was built about 100 years ago. Kent came for a site visit and wrote up a short report. He noticed that some of the concrete around the pillars looked newer and encouraged us to look through old permitting archives. When we did this and sent him the microfiche files from the early 1990's, he told us that indeed seismic retrofitting was done then and we didn't need to update it! Saved us probably around $30k!

Professional, knowledgeable, practical, accessible, reliable, efficient…read more Helped us navigate a difficult deck project in El Cerrito. I would highly recommend Kent for your project and I plan to use him on future projects.
