I would definitely use STS again, and do plan to do so in the near future. I would highly recommend their services. I was very impressed with the work, and the professionalism exhibited by all. The workers were polite, professional and efficient. They arrived on time each day ready to work. The clean up was impressive. They made this remodel swift and efficient. I was always able to reach out with any questions. The Customer service was supreme. Thank you to all at STS. Special thanks to Kellen, Robert, Jeff & Juan and all who were involved in this project. I love my new bathroom! Jeannie S. West Seattle junction. read more

10 stars all around! STS built my fitness studio (HOTWORX) in Seattle. As a 38 year old woman who knows nothing about construction, this build out process was scary and intimidating....until I teamed up with STS. I worked closely with Mark, Jacob, Kellen, and Mike and all 4 were fantastic! Mark handled my estimate and explained the process of permitting, timelines, and costs in detail and was so patient with me. Once we were able to start building, Jacob took over the project as my project manager. Jacob is an absolute rockstar and is truly so good at what he does. He's knowledgeable, assertive, and detail oriented. I always felt he really cared what my concerns were and genuinely wanted to make sure I was happy with every detail. Jacob contacted all my vendors so he understood down to the hour when equipment was being dropped off and organized all of it! He literally managed by entire project, not just the construction like I assumed. He took so much off my plate so I could focus elsewhere which is going to make my grand opening a breeze because of it. STS didn't just build a beautiful studio, they made my experience of opening a new business easy and dare I say enjoyable. (I've heard so many horror stories and I'm so glad that wasn't my experience) Thank you STS and a special thank you to Jacob! I appreciate you so much! read more

We hired STS to lay tile for our kitchen floor and we couldn't be happier. They did an impeccable job. The grouting was masterful and recommended an epoxy grout, which takes more skill as it sets fast, but its stain resistant and more durable than normal grout. They also identified that our floor sloped in places and adjusted for those so the floor was properly level. The team who did the work was also friendly, on time, and attentive to our preferences. Their pricing was great for the quality. We plan to hire them again for a bigger project in the future. read more

When we took possession of our house in Seattle, we realized that the sellers had done us a "favor" by painting swatches on the wall where nails had been removed (sometimes failing to fill the holes first) - in a different color. It looked like our walls had terrible acne. And our furniture was due to arrive on Monday. Clint came over on Friday, helped choose a color, and had a crew on site at 6:45 the next morning. Their preparation was meticulous and thorough and, although they worked quickly, their work was exemplary. They were able to complete the entire house in about ten hours and it looks beautiful. They were also very accommodating for our two traumatized cats who were recovering from their first plane trip. We cannot recommend them more highly and now we're ready for the furniture to arrive! read more

I've tried twice to get one of they're representatives to contact me about a project. I've never been contacted. Can't say anything about the quality their work just disappointed. Granted mine was a small remodel adding a master bedroom closet to the home. read more

I have used STS services twice in the past year and I highly recommend them. My first experience was for a rental property that needed RRIO fixes. The repairs were both electrical and plumbing related and it was nice to have one source that was coordinated and could do the repairs without a lengthy disruption to my renters and I was freed of having to deal with two trades. The work was perfect and my renters appreciated the friendly workers and their efforts to limit disruption and to keep the property tidy. I recently used STS at my own home for an attic fan replacement and chimney repair. Once again, I was not disappointed. The workers were great trouble shooters as it was an oddball job, they were friendly, efficient and great cleaner-uppers. I also appreciated the office staff who were prompt in responding with a bid and for answering my questions. I would definitely use STS again. read more

We were trying to get our house ready for sale in a hurry and Clint Madewell at STS worked with us and did amazing job helping us out on a complex and evolving project. In the end, they replaced deck boards, painted parts of the the deck and house, power washed the yard, and fixed storm windows. We were very happy with the effort, communication, timeliness, and dedication shown by Clint and his crew.

What's the German word for the feeling when you buy a house for the first time and you discover water leaking in to your living room window through the wooden frame? And you waived your inspection because buying a house in Seattle is a nightmare? And every contractor you call is either too busy or the job is too small or too big or they want to replace all of the siding on your entire house to fix this one leak? STS was not the cheapest option I'm sure, but they were professional, always on time, communicated proactively about delays and best of all, fixed our god damn house. They were thorough and started with a water test to determine where the leak was. The project ended up including work outside the house and inside, as well as removing and replacing some drywall to check for additional moisture-related problems in the wall. I sleep a little better at night knowing that someone ripped open the wall and double-checked that we didn't have a mold problem. I think what I most appreciated was that I didn't feel like we were being pressured into anything. They gave us the water test report to bring to another contractor if we wanted. They didn't insist that we replace all of the siding on the house. They were courteous and left the place tidy every day. We're very happy with the work they did and grateful that our home is now leak-free. read more

The end product was fine, but it was nearly impossible to schedule anything reliably with them. The updates on the progress were not frequent nor reliable. I can understand it's a difficult time with staffing shortages, but really, at least follow up when something is complete. read more

beware, seeing a lot of one-star reviews were removed which would rightfully decrease this businesses overall score. The owner, Clint Madewell was communicative but when we set an appointment, nobody showed up. Nobody every contacted us that day. We called, texted and emailed but couldn't get ahold of anyone which was frustrating because we cleared out the schedule in anticipation of people coming by. About a month later he contacts my male partner, disregarding the email I sent on the day of the previous appointment, not even apologizing for the missed day. We had already had someone come by and fix the issue. Have seen their people come for two other neighbors and workers are always maskless read more

We used STS for putting parts of our basement bedroom and bath back together after we had to tear everything out to put in a boundary drainage system. We also had to install waterproofing material behind the walls. We used them to do the initial demolition- tearing out drywall, carpet, trim, tile, vanity etc. And then to put it all back together again. We had a great experience with them. It took a while to set up an appointment to get someone in for a quote and that was the only downside. It also took some time for them to respond to emails, but even if they didn't reply, they seem to have taken note of my concerns/questions and addressed them. This is probably because they are usually in the field and might not check emails that often. Once we had them in for a quote- they gave us a very reasonable price, sent us the contract and made sure to fit into the schedule for the drainage folks(Permadry), Abe Rivas and another very nice guy came in for the demolition. They took samples of the carpet, tile and paint before they started. Every piece of trim was labeled, so were the mirror, vanity, heater etc while they took them off. They did an excellent job salvaging whatever insulation could be reused. They were in and out in 4 hours and left the place really clean, put plastic covers over the carpet and other items to keep them safe. We didn't have to empty all the basement rooms, they worked around the furniture in the areas which weren't being worked on(family room). Abe worked with us to find a perfect carpet match after we turned down the first few samples and that was much appreciated. Once we had our drain put in, multiple crew members came in to put up the drywall, sand drywall, paint, tile, re install the appliances, put in carpet. I met most of them and each one was polite, easy to talk to, comfortable with answering questions and did a fantastic job. We were done in 8 days. They were on time and on budget. I was worried seeing the previous review, but we had a really good experience and meeting the crew and seeing the work they did, i feel comfortable recommending them to others. Note - we didn't do any remodeling/redesign - we had them restore our basement to the way it was before the demolition for the drain. read more

STS is almost done remodeling my kitchen. Their quote was higher than the others I received but I chose them anyway because of their attention to detail and promptness in responding to my questions. I just felt better about their quote than the others. Now that the job is almost finished am really glad that I chose STS. Their communication throughout the project has been fantastic. There was an unexpected delay in the cabinet order (the cabinet company was backed up) and I was notified right away and told in a very straight forward way what was going on. There have been no surprises and all cost overruns are due to my choice in more expensive materials. The best part is that the workers come are on site whenever there is work to do, I have never felt that they were too busy with some other job to work on mine, which is the most common complaint I hear from people about construction companies (that and cost overruns). read more

Thumbs up for the STS Team. STS was contracted for my Condos Special Assessment, restoration for our Condos garage fire / water damage and a small renovation project of my own. Craig Haveson, owner and Abe Rivas, Supervisor, are both exceptionally kind, thoughtful and knowledgeable. They take the time to listen and iare solution oriented. The subcontractors STS uses are competent and professional. These qualities are very important to me. I depend on their professional expertise and STS has always stepped up. A big Yelp and KUDOS out to STS. read more

STS did a good job finishing the repairs but customer service/communication was bad. They started the repairs without any notices, came home patio sliding door was covered with plastics couldn't access the yard. They moved all my patio furnitures and planters etc all over my garden without my permission. Hope they read this and work on communicating specially the cost of service was expensive. read more

So came back from my other house and said huh things are a little off as in tilted. Lol... seriously my house sank. Called a foundation repair company out and then went to find a crew to do demo... aka remove drywall and flooring in my office and garage. I was referred to STS so gave them a call we arranged a meeting they sent out a guy who was very thorough with what we needed to do. I got a few other quotes that were a little cheaper, but I felt this company suited my needs more and was going to be better. So the 2 person crew came out and began working covering and taping anything they didn't want effected. They were here for a few hrs and left the space spotless. The cleanest demo I think I have seen. So far they have been rockstars. Sometimes you get what you pay for. read more

After a thorough interview process of four general contractors, we hired STS to do a major repair on our home (replacing the cracked foundation of our two-story house). We chose them because their plan was the most thorough and included frequent communication. The work required them to coordinate with our architect, designer, structural engineers, geotechnical engineers, and support piling specialists. We also decided to do some light remodeling and updating while the house was under construction. Our STS project manager (Jay) and site lead (Enrique) were fantastic to work with, answering our many questions and making sure to check in with us before proceeding on anything that came up anew. The on-site team was very flexible and helped us to create new storage space and improve interior spaces during the build. The plumbers, electricians, and other pros employed with STS were all great to work with. Everyone was respectful of the home and property. We have already, and will continue to, recommend STS! read more

I called STS approximately 6 weeks ago and asked for a quote to complete an 800-1000 sq ft unfinished basement in my urban Seattle home. STS was prompt in returning my online request and quickly quickly set up an appointment to see the basement and take measurements. The gentleman who came to do the quote was polite. Thus, one star given. I had high hopes that an actual quote for the remodel would be forth coming. Unfortunately, STS did not contact me again. No quote, no call, no follow up. I did reach out to their office by phone. I explained that I was waiting for a job quote. The office staff had no other recommendation other than to call the gentleman who came out to do the quote. I called him and left a message. No return call, no email, no mail. My advice, don't waste your time with these guys if you have a small-ish job (I imagine my remodel to be in the $40,000 to $60,000 range). I have no idea how they perform in the large remodel or custom home building market but, despite the fact that they do advertise for simple remodels, they clearly had no interest in my business. read more

STS Construction Services recently completed a remodel of our kitchen and living room. The goal of our remodel was to make our kitchen completely wheelchair accessible and functional. We had been designing it and drawing up plans for several years. Having been through a couple remodels, I knew that we wanted a contractor who was skilled, prompt, reliable and gave good value for money. In hiring STS, we got all of that and more! STS, from the top down, from the estimator to the crew to the end-of-project cleaners, have a strong determination to do the very best work they can and to make sure the customer is happy. They don't just get it done, they do it with a pride and thoroughness that is quite amazing in this day and age. Our site supervisor, Trai, took a personal interest in our project. He communicated very clearly, so we always knew what was going on. He and his crew always left the site as clean and organized as they could at the end of the day. Every STS employee we dealt with was caring and considerate and exceeded our expectations of quality of work; they treated the project as if it was their own. Some contractors that I interviewed seemed to be unwilling to work with homeowner designs and expected the customer to work with a professional designer or architect. After reviewing our plans, STS felt they were good enough to do the project, and there was no talk of bringing in professional design people. To make sure that the cabinets for our kitchen were exactly the right height, and also to save money, my husband built them himself. Not all contractors would be willing to work with customer-built cabinets, and we found out later that STS was a bit dubious that he would get them done on time and that they would be of the quality and precision that they were used to. But they took a chance and, for the record, he did and they were. STS responded quickly to any issues or problems that we had. They didn't cut corners and they made sure that the quality of the final product was excellent throughout, even if it meant doing something over. There were things that I didn't even notice that they insisted weren't good enough, and they fixed them. Our experience working with STS Construction has been wonderful. While I don't miss the dust and inconvenience of the remodel, I do miss the crew. They became like family and friends. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend STS to anyone for any project, and I certainly would be happy to work with them again on a future remodel. read more

Deck repair that no one informed me would take more than a week to do on my condo was not the worst of it! The waterproofing coating that has a REALLY NOXIOUS odor, I was forewarned about, so I asked the on site supervisor to schedule that first thing in the morning so that I could be out of the house all day and give it 10 - 12 hours to dry and hopefully not be so bad by the time I had to go to sleep (the deck is just off my bedroom). Unfortunately, due to "miscommunication" they put the coating on at the end of the day 3:30 pm leaving me to contend with the headache inducing odor all evening. I will have to find somewhere else to sleep tonight...not happy with this situation!!!! read more

Can't say enough good about Armando, super professional. Highly recommend STS for construction/remodeling work.
