My husband and I live in a Pulte home that was built in 1985. We moved in September of 2001. A nice home but we had become increasingly dissatisfied with the layout of the front area. While our time was predominately spent in the kitchen and living room, the attached dining room and sunroom areas went to waste. We felt cramped and it was hard to entertain (a big part of our lives). We knew we wanted an open concept, but we weren't sure how to proceed.
Enter Aaron Strauser, the owner of No Problem Services Restoration and Remodeling. He came highly recommended by a good friend that had just had major remodeling completed by Aaron, and the results were just beautiful.
Aaron came to our home and with some ideas from us, ran with it and came up with even more ideas, then a plan to make our dream come true. It was amazingly simple and very exciting!
Aaron himself is extremely knowledgeable regarding his craft, he also works with teams he has built longstanding relationships with - and they are outstanding. We had Aaron's framer come out and determine exactly what walls could safely be removed, then had electricians, plumbers, cabinet makers, and painters that all knew their stuff. We had new window installation, appliance installation, then a re-creation of an existing fireplace that is one of my most favorite parts of our home now.
We had at first questioned if we actually needed a contractor. Couldn't we just interview the workers and have them submit bids, thereby cutting out the middleman? Let me assure you it doesn't work like that (our neighbor with the same floor plan remodeled and got half of what we did, it took twice as long and was twice the price, plus he literally was on the verge of a heart attack). Aaron is great with helping you allocate your money to what is most important to you, then helping devise a plan to round out everything else.
Aaron organized everything with his crews and they all showed up and the process went beautifully. Aaron and his crews have a lot of experience and history together and I was pleasantly surprised to find each crew was very polite and professional, cleaned up after themselves, and I never had one worry with any of them in our house.
Aaron showed up to our house quite frequently during the process, addressed any concerns we had, and kept us apprised of updates. I've seen and heard horror stories of remodeling, but it was exactly opposite the case dealing with No Problem. He even sent out a designer to help with lighting and flooring choices! We always felt we held the reins, but we also always felt supported and were given lots of ideas and help in deciding what we wanted.
Our home is beautiful and functional now. It has honestly changed our lives. We love waking up to each morning and coming home to it each night. Entering our home is breathtaking - open, airy and light. We get compliments from friends and family all of the time. We can easily entertain a small group or 30 plus people with everyone in sight and part of the party.
I very highly recommend Aaron Strauser and his business, No Problem Services Restoration and Remodeling. Aaron is an awesome guy with an awesome business. read more
