    After Neagu
    Ed M.

    Hired Neagu for a whole house remodel. My family has been using Neagu for large remodel jobs. His prices are VERY competitive, but his work is 1st class. His crew are skilled craftsmen, especially Robert. Neagu can help you with everything on your remodel project; he can design it, select material, select color, and build it. The crew is reliable, on time everyday and work the entire day. Neagu manages the project on a tight schedule, so make you can keep up with him. There are a lot of contractors out there, get multiple bids from everyone, but make sure you consider Neagu for your next project. He is honest and whatever he says he comes through with it.

    Before

    I signed up to yelp specifically to write this review. I inherited my grandparents old house that was built in the early 1940s. It was run down and had many patch job repairs throughout the years. After giving it much thought we decided it was worth it to renovate instead of just selling it as is. I found Neagu the way you find most good businesses, by word of mouth. I gave Neagu a call and set up an appointment for a walk through. I showed him the old house and my concerns about hidden water damage. My goal was to bring everything in the house up to code and extend the house slightly if we could keep it in budget. He took notes and informed me it was a very big job, but he and his team had worked on houses in worse condition. After checking with the bank and getting a solid budget, we made another appointment with him and an architect. Neagu was a great help, he was able to tell us what was possible and what he recommended while staying in our budget. On many instances he had much better taste and ideas than the architect. After going over many design edits, we came to a design that we liked and that we could afford. After submitting the paperwork to the city, Neagu went there personally many times to help speed the process along. Once the city approved the work, he and his team were on time every day. I can't say enough good things about his team. They are hardworking and trustworthy guys that even fed my cat on days I couldn't make it back to the house. I think that cat ended up liking them more than he likes me. Now the fun part, the unexpected damages. As the demo progressed and the stucco was removed on the north side of the house, water damage was reviled that went all the way to the foundation. That ended up costing more, but Neagu told us not to worry about it, he will make it work. Unfortunately for me, the deeper they dug into the house, the more unexpected damage was found. Foundation repairs, rotted wood, termites, bad pipes, all doors were 4" under code (that was a shocker) and then the south side of the house. The damage on the south side was so severe, I arrived to Neagu and his team just looking at it trying to understand how the house had not fallen down yet. The whole corner and most of the support beams were gone. Gone! Rotted away from decades of leaks. The team went from telling me "we've worked on worse", to "this is the most damage we've seen". There was not workaround for this, so obviously we had to go over budget. Even though the price understandably went up, I heard from other contractors that they would have charged me almost double what Neagu charged us. In the end, we received a great deal on the amount of work that was done. The damage was repaired, extended 4' on one side, Kitchen, master bed and bath remodeled, new plumbing, all new electrical and central heating/AC was added. It took around three months of work, and was still cheaper than bulldozing and starting from scratch. Take a look at the before and after pics. I can't recommend them enough.

    Neagu and his team of highly professional, courteous and hardworking contractors and technicians go above and beyond your basic general home remodeling service to make sure your finished result meets all of your expectations.. and more. At the start, his team carefully draped our house with drop cloths from top to bottom to ensure that nothing would damage or soil our furniture and carpet during service. That was very important to us. And it was also very clear that Neagu was genuinely interested in his customers' visions and ideas of what the end result would be. He is very patient, easy going and understanding when it comes to customers' concern of product and service affordability without the compromising of product quality and hardworking service. Great guy, great company. Kindly give them a call.

    Our kitchen before Neagu

    We were in desperate need of a kitchen remodel. We had a major addition to our house before, and learned some important lessons from that. It was a nightmare, to say the least. So, with that in mind we started to get bids on what we wanted done. Some very high, some very low. It's not always best to go with the lowest bid. When Neagu came, he didn't pressure us to sign a contract (some did! Like high pressure car salespeople), Just said yes to our requests, and suggested alternatives if it would save time and money. He was honest and realistic about a start date. The crew was here every morning at 8 am until the project was completed. I was home during much of the work, and could see their craftsmanship was excellent. The demo went quickly, and the mess was always cleaned up before they went home. There were a couple of things that needed updating to be to code along the way. But we only went over estimate by less than 10% (20% is the norm). Very happy about that. When it was complete, it was actually a few days ahead of schedule. Our kitchen looks beautiful and new. Couldn't be more pleased with how it came out. Any future projects, we will definitely be contacting Neagu and his crew.

Owning an older home comes with inevitable surprises, so we wanted a team who could problem-solve creatively. That's where Liran shined. We brought some ideas to the table, and he offered alternative solutions that made far more sense for how we live--solutions we loved. Designers were brought in to prepare plans and permits, and the work began. Our project manager, Adi, was one of the kindest, most attentive people I've ever worked with. He stayed in constant contact, visited the site frequently, and ensured every detail met extremely high standards. It became a running joke between us about changing their slogan to "quality you can afford"--he humored me, and it perfectly captures the team's approach. The craftsmanship from Flavio, the lead contractor, was exceptional. We didn't pick the easiest designs, but the finished primary bathroom shower tile is genuinely a work of art--everyone who sees it comments on it. We also can't forget "Muscle Memo", who handled all the heavy lifting--climbing through dusty attics, crawling under grimy crawl spaces, and tackling the toughest physical work. His effort made the project run smoothly and safely. Adding to the charm, the team brought their own portable bathroom, which hilariously became a little local attraction--neighbors and passersby would sometimes "need to go," and we all shared a laugh over it. LB went above and beyond by addressing problem areas that weren't part of the original scope, with no extra charge, just to ensure the house looked perfect. They even brought in a professional cleaning crew, leaving our home cleaner than when the project started--a rare and deeply appreciated touch. We are thrilled with the entire LB team and highly recommend them. They hit that sweet spot: exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful problem-solving, genuine care, a sense of humor, and high quality at a price we could afford. Truly impressive from start to finish.

I've never had to use a Water Restoration service before so I browsed trusty Yelp and reached out to Fire & Water Damage. Glad fellow Yelp friend Karen W gave a glowing review! They seem to answer calls 24/7 and I was able to schedule an appointment quickly. Mike was main point of contact and gave us an estimate and scope of work. Basically, they had to tear out the drywall and insulation from the wet area, dry and dehumidify the area for days, and then put on moon suits and remove any mold. We were able to have 2 techs come on a Friday and then let the dehumidifier run over the weekend. We also had to tear out our upper cabinet since the top was damaged by water. On Monday, they came back to remove any leftover mode and patch things up. The total price came in well below the estimate, which is a huge plus. Very happy with the service and efficiency. If you ever suspect you have water damage from leaks, call these guys and get the problem resolved to ensure mold doesn't form or worst, spread. Note that their services are purely restorative - they'll dry out the water-damaged area and get rid of all the mold. You'll need to hire a plumber first to stop the leaks and then afterwards, a drywall contractor to patch up the holes with insulation and new drywall followed by texturing and painting.

Overall the experience was very good; Elijah and Bryan were super friendly and responsive. Eli was very patient and accommodating as we discussed several different potential change orders, from new windows to painting, to other misc. things that popped up. Bryan Luna was especially a pleasure to work with. His attention to detail and proactivity to solve any little thing I mentioned was definitely the highlight of working with Prime. Their contracted electrician, Hector, was great as well. I also think they did a great job building out a cabinet to fit our freezer next to the matching fridge. Their master carpenter managed to salvage our existing wood to make it match perfectly. Definitely better than what I'd expect from even a carpentry specialty contractor. I will mention that it wasn't without some snags. Prime deals in volume so they're very busy. I think because I had delays in sourcing a freezer I ended up not getting a dedicated project manager for some time. We had timeline issues made worse with holidays. This caused cascading delays which inevitably pushed back my move in date a few weeks. When I finally did get a new project manager, they ghosted me (later on I found out they had a family emergency). Eli had to step in again to help. Another thing is that their pricing is quite opaque. The estimate will break down prices by milestones, but they repeated told me that it's not a valuation of the milestone itself. This made it nigh impossible to understand if I wanted to contract out specific pieces of the project (e.g. flooring). Design was OK. I felt that the designer was very busy. Sometimes very responsive (5min replies), sometimes not responsive at all (no reply). I wish I had a better, more thorough back-and-forth session about the intricacies of the design. But we made do. Ultimately, the designer made a render and helped point us to some vendors, but from there we had to make our own selection alone (cabinets, handles, pendant lights, faucets, etc.). I did appreciate her presence when we picked out countertops, though. All in all, I think this was a 4.5 star job, but I'm rounding to 5 because of Eli and Bryan :)

    We contracted Prime Design & Build to remodel two bathrooms, a laundry room, a staircase, and to…read moreinstall hardwood flooring. Overall, the project went well, and we're happy with the final results. Bryan, our foreman, was a strong asset to the project. Even though he was managing multiple jobs at the same time, his responsiveness and willingness to go out of his way to address our concerns made a big difference. Because we were home throughout the process, we were able to catch issues early and communicate them directly to Bryan, who consistently followed through to resolve them. What Went Well: * The tile and flooring subcontractors were excellent - their craftsmanship and attention to detail truly stood out. * Bryan, our foreman, was responsive to texts and phone calls, listened to our concerns, and made sure they were addressed. He even designed a bi-fold closet door for us, and helped pick up all the material to build it. * Bryan also took the initiative to handle several unfinished items himself, which we really appreciated. * The post-build cleaners were top-notch and left the space in pristine condition. * Throughout the project, everyone we interacted with was professional, courteous, and conscientious. There were no conflicts or issues, which made the experience comfortable for us. Areas for Improvement: * The timeline was a pain point. While we were originally told the project would take 6-8 weeks, it ended up stretching to 12 weeks. * The design process fell short of expectations. Because Prime's in-house designers weren't available, our design work was outsourced. We only received a full design package for the master bathroom. As a result, we ended up creating our own renderings for the other rooms to help communicate our vision to the team. That said, we were very happy with the design and material selections for the master bathroom they did complete. We just wish the same level of attention and design support had been provided for the rest of the project. * At times, resource availability was limited, likely due to workers being assigned to multiple jobs. This led to workflow inefficiencies and delays. Toward the end of our renovation, our foreman Bryan had to personally step in to complete several tasks, such as installing faucets, shelving, and baseboards. He managed to get it done in between site visits and meetings, which we appreciated, but it also highlighted a lack of available crew to close out the project. Despite these few challenges, the quality of the work met our expectations. We appreciated the team's effort and the final outcome.

Licensed: Yes Pricing: Pricing was reasonable and on par with other vendors we considered. Recommendation: Yes--100% recommend them. We plan to hire them again next year for additional work in the spring/summer, and I'll be happy to update this review then. Skill: They are truly skilled carpenters (Brendan, Zach, and Sam), which feels rare these days. While I don't do woodworking myself, I can certainly recognize and appreciate quality craftsmanship. In several areas, Zach and Sam came up with creative solutions to ensure water would not sit on the wood. They also discovered additional dry rot during the project and always consulted with us and obtained approval before proceeding. They worked non-stop--even in the cold! Work: I initially contacted Brendan for a mix of handyman work along with exterior dry rot repairs. He was honest and upfront about what could realistically be done during the dry season, so we decided to focus solely on the dry rot repairs. As it turned out, Brendan is a former termite inspector--perfect for anyone needing dry rot repair. They worked at our home for 3 days. There was one small area that wasn't painted on one side; once we brought it to his attention, Brendan came back the very next day to fix it. Their goal is clearly to make the customer happy, within reason. BTW -- he also does decks. Thank you, Brendan & Team!
