We could not be happier with our kitchen remodel and highly recommend Eddy at North Star Kitchen and Bath. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and incredibly well organized. During the bidding process I interviewed 12 contractors. Eddy was by far the most professional, creative and adaptable to all the changes we made. He has a designer eye with a great vision and stayed within our budget. Hands down, he was the best fit for our project. He even shopped with us to make sure everything would be perfect. His team, Fino and Jesus are very hardworking professionals who are respectful and trustworthy. Their attention to detail was outstanding! Originally, Eddy told us we would not have a kitchen for 4 weeks but give him 6 weeks for sure. He finished in less than 5 weeks and it is amazing! We made changes along the way and Eddy was so accommodating and handled everything so quickly. If you're looking for a contractor who is reliable, talented, honest, and genuinely takes pride in their work, this is the team to hire. We would absolutely use them again! Thank you Eddy, Fino and Jesus! read more

Bathtub was not set or caulked correctly. Within 3 months grout was cracked in tub tile and master shower pan. A number of cabinet doors were warped or had streaky paint finishes ( one was supposedly reordered). I sent Eddy numerous emails and text messages with the pictures but never received a response. I had to pay another contractor to fix. Very disappointed. read more

Let me just say that I got lucky, I called Eddy from North Star Kitchen & Bath! To be honest, I did call several other companies, because that is what you should do. Eddy was very impressive, knowledge wise. But I picked the fast talker. Blue Sky, more expensive, and couldn't deliver. Eddy called me back, was less expensive (not cheaper, there is a difference) and delivered! Eddy designed exactly what we wanted, gave us expert advice (I know, as I have been in the business 25 years), and we had a new kitchen in three weeks! When I sold kitchens, it was always 6 weeks minimum. That's amazing! His team did, demo, repair, new custom built cabinets, custom granite countertops (Cygnus), tile backsplash, new LED can and under cabinet (we love the lighting!) lighting, and even a new crown molding. Installed appliances as well (Go Bosch). Again, three weeks! Eddy and Omar even changed part of the tile splash, because my wife didn't like what she picked. Kudos to the crew for working with us! On price, on time, quality and integrity, Eddy is your man! PS. Flooring, painting and windows next (by others), I will let you know, who and how, it goes (follow me). Paver Joe read more

In August, I had my Mom's bathroom remodeled with North Star Bath. I live in another city. Eddie did a great job keeping me apprised of the status of the remodel. It was basically a complete gut. We had the current shower replaced with a linen cabinet, a couple walls removed, the toilet moved and replaced, the tub converted into a large shower, new vanity, new lights, flooring, new windows and a soffit removed. He and his team did a great job staying on time and on budget. My mom loved the results. There were some later nights working (6:30 - 7:00) and my mom would have liked work to end by 5:00. Not a huge problem though. Eddie was a pleasure to work with and if I ever have any more bath or kitchen remodels, I would definitely go to him again. read more

We have used North Star twice; to renovate a bathroom and recently for our kitchen. Having had many renovations done over the years, my wife and I are beyond thrilled at the level of workmanship that North Star provides. The project was handled smoothly and efficiently Fino was top-rate, extremely friendly and accomodating. They were on schedule and on budget. Wish I had more stars. read more

I want to preface this review by saying that I haven't written a review in years. I only typically write a review if the service is exceptionally good or exceptionally bad. That being said, North Star would get 6 stars if YELP would allow it. We met with 3 different contractors and got pricing from all 3 on a complete gut and re-do of our master bathroom. North Star pricing was competitive and Eddy came highly recommended by my in-laws because of work he did for them. He is extremely knowledgeable and makes suggestions that are spot on. I manage construction projects for a living, so I've got very high expectations and no patience for delays, and I have to say that Eddy exceeded my expectations. His guys are very nice and the quality of work is EXCEPTIONAL! Unbelievably, his price stayed the same even after I requested a few extra things like an additional outlet, tile repairs in my guest bathroom, carpet patch in my closet, etc.. This company isn't just good, they are exceptional. I would recommend them to everyone! read more

We are happy with North Star and would recommend them. read more

Many thanks to Eddy and his team members, Wes and Fino for completing my small bathroom remodel with such speed and efficiency! Due to the pandemic, all things came to a stop in March, and I had to live with a boxed vanity and a toilet sitting on my covered patio until July. Well, the wait was worth it! The attention to detail was phenomenal, and the guys even took the time to clean my skylight, which was not part of the project. I've already recommended North Star to my neighbor who is considering a similar project in the future. Well done, guys! read more

Eddy and his crew were awesome and Eddy worked every step of the way with me to every tiny detail, he even went shopping with me to get all the pieces and parts. He really goes out of the way and answers all your calls and questions. They remodeled my bathroom. I love it so much more than before. Thank you North Star crew. Don't hesitate to use them. They are very professional and made sure the house was clean before they left. read more

Eddy is knowledgeable and experienced. He stays on budget and keeps his projects on time. He will personally go with you to select everything you need from handles to countertops. I highly recommend North Star Kitchen and Bath! read more

Northstar did excellent work on our master bathroom shower. They carefully masked off and covered our furniture and carpet. The workers were very pleasant, courteous, and very neat. The most important part of a shower is a water tight pan. Eddy uses a bullet-proof system, and I don't think our shower will ever leak again. Our shower seat was done in granite, and it is a work of art. We also had a 3-shelf niche installed and it looks great! So many things about their work is awesome, but... We give 4 stars since they had to come back to correct some errors...which I don't think should've even occurred in the first place (missing grout, low drain plate, shower head too high - and I was very specific as to where I wanted the shower head). They came back and fixed what they could. Unfortunately, the biggest error occurred with the drain not being centered as promised, and there's nothing that can be done aside from tearing it apart. Overall, though, we're very pleased with our new shower. read more

We contracted North Star to renovate our dated 1980's kitchen in April of 2014. Eddy's proposal included a beautiful design including cabinets and lighting using high quality materials. His assistance and suggestions in choosing flooring and wall tiles was invaluable, and his existing relationship with local suppliers made the procurement of materials seamless. While his was not the cheapest bid, it was the best articulation of what we wanted and it was clear Eddy knew how to deliver this project. Eddy and his team handled every detail, and during the life of the project Eddy had the team re-open and make a 3 inch adjustment to a wall, because it did not meet the standard set. This change cost Eddy a full man-day of work - but he delivered to promise. North Star started and ended the project on-schedule, on-quality, and on-budget. I would recommend North Star and will use them again if the opportunity arises. read more

Honest, Professional, Dependable. My wife and I hired North Star Kitchen and Bath to remodel our 1987 tract home master bathroom and bedroom. We could not be more pleased with the result. The job was completed ON BUDGET AND ON TIME! I can't say enough good things about Eddy and his team. They were true professionals. They treated our home with great respect and went out of their way to make sure we were inconvenienced as little as possible. Each day they cleaned up and they sealed off the project with plastic to minimize dust throughout the rest of our house. Every day I watched the team work incredibly hard to give us the bathroom we wanted, especially Fino and Aaron. They were true professionals and craftsmen. We chose a tile that was not the easiest to work with and we asked for some custom touches that I know made their job a little more difficult. They never complained or tried to talk us out of what we wanted. They just made it happen. Eddy regularly communicated with us and came by frequently to make sure things progressed on schedule. He gave us a very fair price and the end cost was true to the original estimate, no hidden fees or surprises. The quality of the work was outstanding. I'll definitely be calling Eddy for our next project. read more

I recently hired Eddy, the owner of Northstar Kitchen and Bath, to completely remodel a large kitchen, and all 3 bathrooms in a house for my elderly parents. I felt the need for this job to go perfectly more than any other project I've ever done, so that my parents would have a beautiful house to move into with no effort on there part. Eddy did not disappoint. He really has a talent for understanding want your wants and needs are and making it happen. I called him "The kitchen artist" He did several things along the way that reflected his understanding of my parents unique needs and concerns. I couldn't have been happier. His workers were all very professional and easy to work with also. In fact I would like to thank Fino, Omar, Wes, Cabis and Remal also. His prices are probably somewhere in the middle, but his work is at the top. If you are just looking for the cheapest guy, you can find one cheaper than Northstar, but I don't believe you could get his quality of work for less. He is very reasonable, and he absolutely stuck to his budget and schedule. We added a couple of things as afterthoughts that raised the price a little and extended the job a little, but that was on us not Eddy. His original price and time frame were right on. I'll be calling Eddy down the road for some work on my house, and I will also be referring him to any friends or neighbors that are looking to remodel their kitchen or baths. read more

I am in love with my new master bath and I have Eddy and his team to thank! I had a very specific design in my head and they brought it to life. Whenever a problem came up, they came to me and we worked together to find a solution. (there weren't many) Fino bends over backwards to make sure I'm happy and is always cheerful and cooperative and he can fix just about anything! Fabian worked wonders with my tile and again, the most agreeable to work with. Miguel made what could have been a plumbing nightmare turn into a dream come true. (for a minute, we thought that the tub wasn't going to fit!) And of course, Eddy was always on top of everything. Whenever I had a concern, he would call or text to let me know that he was on it and would correct anything I was worried about. He was always honest about any add ons I requested and even recommended a very economical counter top. Most importantly, he and his crew showed up when they said they would and stayed until they were finished. If you've ever hired contractors before, you know that this one thing is worth hiring them! Their attention to detail and quality work are icing on the cake. Thanks guys, I almost wish I had another bathroom to decorate. lol read more

I couldn't be happier with North Star Kitchen and Bath. Eddy and his crew were amazing at transforming my dated guest bath into something I am proud of and love ! I gave him a idea of what I had in mind. He came though better than I had envisioned.His selection of materials and fixtures were on point. Their work is professional and top notch. His crew were polite and respectful working around my 90 yr. old mother. Eddy and his team worked to finish on time and on budget. This is your go to team if you need any remodel. Thank you Eddy !!!! read more

North Star Kitchen and Bath recently remodeled our downstairs guest bathroom. The job was a complete remodel transferring a standard no frills bathroom with a tub shower into a beautiful work of art. Everything was replaced, flooring, lighting, toilet, vanity, sink, paint, crown molding and an amazing walk in shower of stone, glass granite and tile. The result was amazing, and everything came out beautiful. Eddie, the owner, was exceptional to work with in every aspect from the bid process to design assistance and even trouble shooting when I purchased some incorrect material, Eddy saved the day. Eddy made it point to be on site to make sure the job was getting done to our satisfaction. His crew was stellar!! They showed up everyday on time, cleaned up each day after their work and completed the job as outlined in their bid proposal. I would definitely hire Eddy again and I would highly recommend Eddy and his crew to any of my friends. read more

North Star was a great choice for our bathroom project. They were reliable, extremely competent and highly skilled at communicating. Eddy and his team re-established my faith in contractors and home improvement. That faith was waning recently. The team took our oddly built bathroom in our new (to us) home purchase and made it functional and beautiful. The work was done in the timeframe they committed to and on price. They worked with us to add some work in another area of the home and knocked it out of the park. We combined tile, glass, a new vanity and newly painted and textured wall. Our job required electrical, tile, plumbing, construction and finishing. These are good guys doing good work. Thank you Eddy! read more

We hired Eddy to install a new tiled shower, tub and flooring in our master bath. As very proud DIYers we were a little nervous about hiring out the work but we are SO thankful that we did. I cannot recommend Northstar highly enough. The bid was more than reasonable and they stuck exactly to the budget and timeline. Omar and his crew were excellent to work with as well. Often arriving early in the morning and working through the entire day until 6 pm if needed. The work ethic was very impressive - our neighbors even commented on how hard they worked. All the guys were extremely courteous, cleaned up at the end of the day and were great with my curious 4 year old who always wanted to help. The craftsmanship is top notch. As is expected on a job like this there were little things here and there that needed to be corrected along the way and the guys were always ready and willing to fix it. It was clear they wanted to ensure we were happy with the final product and we couldn't be more thrilled with our new bathroom. I will definitely be using Northstar in the future. Thank you Eddy, Omar and the rest of the crew! read more

North Star Kitchen and Bath remodeled my kitchen cabinets and counter tops, as well as reconfiguring the layout of the kitchen. The owner, Eddy, initially met with my husband and I in person, and discussed our budget and our wish list. He was honest, professional, and very knowledgeable. We had the written bid within 24 hours, and work on the kitchen began within a few days. The crew that arrived at my home each day was personable, honest and respectful. Either Eddy, or his daughter Amanda came by every day to check on the progress of the job, and our satisfaction. The whole process took 7 working days, which I feel was amazing ! I love our new kitchen, and would whole heartedly recommend this company to anyone looking for a job well done, at a very fair price , with wonderful results ! We hope to use North Star again in the future, to remodel our master bath (: Sincerely, Gordon and Brenda Stone read more

Eddy and his crew where amazing! They remodeled 3 baths, our kitchen re-painted the entire interior of our house and replaced a lot of our flooring. Our house has under gone an amazing transformation and my family and I truly love everything that was done. Eddy was great helping us create the designs we wanted. My wife and I both had ideas in our head but weren't sure how to put it all together. Eddy worked with us in picking out materials and helped make sure that we chose fixtures that help keep us on budget. At the end of each day his crew did a great job cleaning up and made it very bearable to live through the remodel process. The crew, Eduardo and Fino, became part of our family and to this day my children still ask when are the workers coming back as they had a lot of fun watching them and getting to know them. read more

To echo a previous reviewer; if I could give North Star 6 stars, I would! North Star recently remodeled our guest bathroom, and it was by far, the best experience we have ever had with a contractor. We have flipped and remodeled numerous homes over the years, and dealt with dozens of contractors; however, Eddy and his team at North Star were the absolute best! We received a quote within 24 hours of our initial meeting, and Eddy and his crew started just a few days later. Their designer, Lori Ramsay, was in constant communication with the various contractors, ensuring the project progressed smoothly and in a timely manner, in addition to providing us with daily updates. It was a pleasure to be able to take advantage of her incredible design expertise, as she helped us with style and color choices. Every contractor arrived on time each day and were extremely respectful of our home. They tarped everything and cleaned up at the end of the day ,as if they had never been here. Truly quality work and the best floor tiling we have ever seen. AND - they finished AHEAD of schedule! Amazing! We are planning a major kitchen project and are looking forward to working with Eddy, Lori and the North Star team again. A remodel can be overwhelming and stressful; but not if you hire North Star. They are the best. read more

I never thought that we would be able to install a giant towel warmer on a fully tiled wall, but they did it! We also needed to replace some tile around a very large window replaced. Our home is about 30 years old, and we had some tile we saved from the demolition of another bathroom in the house. They were able to reuse the old tile for the gap around the window replacement. You'd never know work was done, it was perfect. And not easy to clean and cut all of the (2X2) tiles. North Star was amazing. Eddie came to give the estimate and had so much more confidence than anyone else that bid. The gentlemen that came to do the work were extremely polite and professional. Very neat, cleaned up well after themselves. We will definitely use them again, and couldn't recommend them highly enough. read more

What a great guy Eddy is! I asked him to come out and give us an estimate to remodel our master bathroom and not only was he prompt but his estimate was extremely fair! I was going to hire him for the job but unfortunately an emergency came up and we had to put off our remodel. I will definitely hire him for a job as soon as funds become available again. He was extremely nice and quick with emailing me the estimate and very professional unlike another company that had come out and then I never heard from them again. The other company had quoted without any measurements a ridiculous amount and when I did not readily agree I never heard from them again. Good riddance! Do contact Eddy as his rates are extremely reasonable! read more

North Star Kitchen and Bath recently remodeled our kitchen and living room for us. We are so impressed and pleased with the results. We told Eddy we wanted a wall taken out, a beam covered, lights put in our vaulted ceilings, an island built to seat 8 adults and our kitchen, hall and living room area tiled. He and his crew took our dream and made it a reality. They are all very professional. They went above and beyond with all the little extras and we would highly recommend them to our friends. We will be having them back to remodel our bathrooms. Jerry and Gail H. read more

It is hard to find a good contractor so I interviewed three before picking Eddy and North Star Kitchen and Bath. I have now used Eddy on three major projects and would not use anyone else. Eddy and his guys treat each job as if it is their own home. They always arrive on time, do the highest quality work at a fair price and clean up well. Eddy also gives great design advise and takes great pride in his work and is not satisfied until we aree happy and 100% satisfied. If you want your job done on time, on schedule, on budget and looking great, then Eddy is your guy. read more

North Star Kitchen and Bath recently remodeled both of our bathrooms. We replaced a shower, installed sinks, toilets, vanities and flooring. Most of the work was done by his capable crew, but Eddy, the owner, checked each step of the project. They were very good about doing the little extras that weren't expressly stated in the contract. Eddy dealt with some complications and issues that our house presented in a professional and courteous manner. He made it very clear that he wanted us to be happy with the results. His crew shows up in his large self-contained truck with all the tools, materials and cleaning supplies needed. They arrived as scheduled each day and cleaned up nicely. His price for the project was very competitive and we are happy with the results. Having had numerous contractors working at our home over the last few months, Eddy stands out as the one that I would hire again and would recommend to my friends. read more
