    Sink vanity
    Gladys V.

    Working with Kristi to remodel our bathroom was the most streamlined, organized, easy experience I have ever had working with a contractor. She was on top of every detail, managing her crew and planning for all scenarios should they arise. She communicated clearly and promptly whenever she needed any decisions from us, and kept us informed on the few instances we had to pivot. Most importantly, she stuck to her schedule and even completed the job a few days ahead of schedule. She is also just a pleasure to work with! Would 100% recommend her services. Our bathroom looks better than we could have imagined. Literally feels like stepping into a spa every morning!

    Our 1969 ranch home needed an overhaul of the original kitchen to bring it into the modern age in a timeless and classic fashion. Kristi delivered on our ask with my lookbook requests, creating the layout design and advising on design elements such as type of cabinets, location of lighting, correct/proper spacing and sizing, and providing color and hardware options for me to choose from. I knew exactly what I wanted but Kristi was a great sounding board. She also never took offense if I wanted to go a different direction and always sought to get me what I wanted. She has great relationships with local specialists ranging from flooring, stone for counters, cabinets, woodworkers, tilers, hvac, electrical and plumbing. She is very open about areas you may want to value engineer (i.e. spend more on areas that really add value and you love, spend less on those areas that don't) because there is a wide range of costs associated with everything from tile, hardware, appliances, to countertop stone! We felt like we were updated regularly and communicated with often. All projects run the risk of going over budget and over time due to unforseen issues or unknowns (especially with these older homes). We were fairly on budget and on time considering the large scope of the project and the primarily delays or overruns were due to our personal decisions to do more and expand scope. I correlate this to multiple things: well organized, many years of experience working with older homes and multiple types of customers and different tastes/designs, and efficient and runs a tight ship. All of these things are important to delivering results you want on time and on budget!

    Exterior screened patio
    Renee D.

    I've been dreaming of adding a screened patio to my backyard for more than a decade. Kristi and her FixIt Chick crew brought the dream to life in just a few short weeks, and the final result is so much more than I could have imagined. Kristi worked through pricing scenarios for flooring, siding and ceiling options so we could keep the home addition in budget while still maintaining a beautiful design. I felt I had a true partner throughout the project, rather than a transaction-focused contractor. Kristi cared as much about the final results as I did, and even provided more refined fit & finish details than I would have thought to request. It's impossible to overstate how comforting it was to have such trust in Kristi's expertise as the original patio and backing of my home were being demoed. Even if things looked scary, I knew Kristi was on it and all would be exactly as we had envisioned, if not better. Kristi visited regularly throughout the six weeks of construction, kept me informed of who was coming, when, and what they would be doing. All questions were answered promptly and she helped me better understand the construction taking place. It's no surprise given Kristi's expertise and exacting standards that she hires top-notch craftsmen to do the work. Construction, roofing, electrical, detailed concrete/flagstone work, custom woodwork, window installation, painting/staining-- I met almost everyone on Kristi's team. Without exception, they were all delightful to meet and work with throughout the project. There are none better, and there is no one who will make it easier or more made-to-order than Kristi and her remarkable crew.

    I can't recommend Kristi and her crew enough! I had a client recommended the fix chick to me earlier this year. I started the process with about five quotes and she came in right under the highest. Heads up i had to wait a couple of weeks for a appointment. But after we met and I got the estimate I could tell why. The estimate was very through and easy to read and understand. There was a contract and payment plan once I decided to go with her. Is she booked out yes but I didn't want someone available right away. Plus it gave me plenty of time to plan things out. I opted to buy all the fun stuff and if I had any questions Kristi was quick to assist me. Communication was five stars as well. All of the subs were nice and took good care of my home. The job was quoted to take 6 weeks but took 7 due to some delays on tile. Any of the issues that arose because you have to go into these things knowing they will. None of it matters because the work looks so good. Still can't believe these are our bathrooms! Thank you Kristi and crew! I'm already dreaming about what's next and hope to hire you again

    kitchen renovation and bedroom door install

    Everyone should hire this woman for their next renovation! I'm so luckily my husband found Kristi on a facebook post. At that time, we had already signed a contract with a different contractor that home depot recommended (statewide remodeling). Kristi replaced them after we caught statewide in a heap of lies, and bait and switch strategies. Kristi is amazing at her profession. Her design skills are fantastic and well thought out. Her communication is top notch. Her price is far lower than her competitors, and her spread sheet price quotes were very thorough. Kristi had great artistic vision, and offered cheaper options when sticking to my budget. Her team worked fast. She always stayed in touch with me throughout the day while I was at work. Her guys finished my kitchen and living room renovation within a month. Kristi took out my 1980s fireplace and windows, and replaced the space with a 120 inch sliding glass door. She gutted my 1980s kitchen and walls and completely redid everything. She also moved an interior door to make more room for the kitchen space. We are so happy Kristi did our project, and not the other chumps we initially found. I'm including photos of our project.

    After: accessorized and finished

    I have a 1980 condo in North Central Austin. A friend referred Kristi after I complimented her bathroom remodel. I met with Kristi, shared my ideas, showed her sample materials I wanted to use then got on her calendar. I didn't mind the wait as we had good chemistry and I knew she'd be the perfect person to gut my master upstairs bathroom and add new floors to the master bedroom. Kristi and her entire team of partners were amazing. At times done if them felt like family and that's a great feeling when you have a 6 week project in your home. Kristi even helped me solve for a hot upstairs by bringing in her HVAC partner. Sure it was scope creep but we ended up moving the AC to the attic from downstairs and adding new air ducts. We replaced carpet with bamboo flooring in the master bedroom and stair landing. As part of the process squeaky floors were fixed and the floors were reinforced. The master bathroom was a complete gut. Instead of explaining it, just check out my pictures. I'm already saving up so I can find another reason to work with The Fix It Chick again!

    Chimney - Before the work
    Timothy B.

    Let me start by saying that I own a small business. In the past, I have had to turn down work because I was stretched too thin. I probably could have worked it out, but the end product would not have been representative of the quality of my work, so instead, I turned down the job. So while some people might post a negative review due to Kristi being unavailable to do the work, that fact does not have anything to do with the actual quality of her work. A few years ago I had removed the fireplace from inside our home to increase the space in our library/bar area. Although the inside looked good, we now had a useless chimney on the outside of our home. To remove it, I needed someone who could do roofing, siding, brick, electrical and gas. I got in touch with Kristi to see about getting a quote for the work. Every step of the way Kristi was great. She was very responsive to emails and text messages. She also made numerous suggestions, some of which we took and some of which we didn't. One suggestion we did take was to use hand-painted concrete tile instead of brick. The end product turned out better than we could have expected. And, because of the compromises we made along the way, we were able to stay true to the original quote (even though the tile turned out way more expensive than we initially thought!) Kristi is funny, personable and great to work with. We have many more projects planned for our house, including remodels of both bathrooms as well as our kitchen. I will be contacting Kristi for all of these.

    Perfect! Looks like it was always there!

Avi was an absolutely delight. Fast, clear communication before the initial meeting. Very thoughtful approach in our initial meeting. So many images from their highly impressive portfolio to help us think through options. Excellent examples of communication and workflow from previous projects. Instantly ready to share previous customers we could reach out to for references. A really good balance between sharing his ideas for our project, but also really listening to our feedback on what we wanted/invisoned. All the right insights for how to keep us in budget, and very generous with (we can add this/that for little/no extra costs since we're already doing XYZ). We mainly requested a bid on two projects (Kitchen and Primary Bathroom) and help deciding the scope for the remainder of our projects (Flooring, Guest Bath, Office, Patio, Etc.). We were very impressed with how realistic, but also open-minded he was with what portion of our "bonus" projects we could fit in. The formal quote came in fast after our initial meeting, was easy to follow, and fairly priced. Found the proposed timeline to be very well balanced for efficiency vs realism. Appreciated the suggestions provided for if we should/could "live-in" during the remodel vs. a timeline that would allow the bulk of the work to overlap with a time that we were going to be out of town already. Also insights on what it would be worth "buying in advance" to take advantage of sales, even if the actual work was delayed. We got a few quotes and would have felt confident moving forward with any of them when the time came, but the quality of their portfolio and Avi's attentive listening definitely put Teamwork Home Designs at the top of the list. Can't wait to work with them in the future.

    My experience with this company was disappointing. Before hiring, I recommend asking to speak with…read moreprior clients and reviewing completed projects similar to the scope of work you are considering. The team appeared comfortable working on bathroom renovations; however, the shower diverter was not installed correctly, which caused the handle to be improperly aligned. We later hired a licensed plumber to inspect and correct the issue. Overall, the quality of work did not meet our expectations. Some aspects of the workmanship appeared rushed, and based on our experience, I would recommend exercising caution with detail-oriented tasks such as wood staining, drywall, painting, or door hardware installation. This project did not go as smoothly as anticipated, and I would not choose to work with this company again.

    It's been long over-due to write this review of our kitchen/living room remodel. However, with…read morealmost 2 years out, I think we have a good perspective now. April is probably great if you have no idea what you want for your remodel and want her to just design and do it all. However, we knew exactly what we wanted, how we wanted things designed and the specifications we wanted. April did not pay close attentions to all the details we provided her. Cabinets etc were undersized. We had to go back and forth many times. Very cheap materials and labor are used (only single coats of paint and now we have had to repaint most surfaces already with just simple user wear/tear). Cheap material was used in the pantry that we had to have her pull out right after assembly. She spend nearly all of her design hours researching a job that she really could not do. In the end, we are not very happy with most of the work quality or the experience. Next time we need to do a remodel of anything else in our house (which we are starting to plan now for our master bathroom), we will certainly go elsewhere.
