Contemporary Remodel in West Seattle
We hired P&M Construction after getting five different bids for our house remodel in West Seattle. They were not the cheapest, but far under the more expensive bids we received. We chose P&M because of their experience and my confidence they would do things right. I was not disappointed.
The remodel was fairly extensive, adding an addition, modifying the roofline and changing to standing-seam metal roofing, changing windows, re-siding with Hardie-Board and metal siding, electrical, and extensive concrete retaining walls and flatwork. A less experienced contractor would have had difficulty completing many facets of the work, and I was concerned the end result would have "looked like a remodel".
Gordon Post (the P in P&M) is a mechanical engineer and has spent ~40-years in construction. Gordon oversees all work and was on site most every day, especially when more critical work was being done. I am a designer and am experienced in construction, having done the architecture and the work on several remodels. Gordon turned out to be the most knowledgeable people in the construction business I have known, and offered simple and innovative solutions to issues that presented themselves.
The work went smoothly and was high-quality. As with most remodels, there were a number of changes made along the way, and Gordon was excellent in arriving at the best way of accommodating my requests. Lou Mladenovic (the M in P&M) is the estimator and handles procurement, billing, etc., and was helpful in finding the right options in materials and available products when changes were proposed.
We are very pleased with the results, and get compliments from everyone who sees the work (especially if they knew what the house looked like before the remodel). Many people assume the house is new construction, and have been shocked when I explain it was a remodel.
I would highly recommend P&M Construction for any remodel, especially for the more complicated work that would require the experience and talent that Gordon and Lou bring to the table.
