He is extremely professional, detail-oriented, and truly goes above and beyond. What impressed me the most was that he identified and resolved potential issues before I even noticed them, delivering a finished result that exceeded my expectations. He also took great care to keep my home as clean and dust-free as possible throughout the entire project, which I greatly appreciated. The quality of the workmanship, professionalism, and attention to detail were outstanding. I couldn't be happier with the results, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for flooring installation or refinishing. You won't be disappointed!

I have had Mitchell Park's company refinish floors for me twice. They not only did a beautiful job…read morebut were extremely considerate taking in to account I have severe asthma and allergies. Another plus is my second floor bedrooms and hallway are hardwood. I did not need my bedrooms done and doing the hallway would not result in matching color. Unlike other contractors I met with for comparison Mitchell had a workaround and suggested putting saddles in each bedroom doorway. No one else suggested that and it worked out great. I have posted a photo of my living room which was done with a water based polyurethane.

I was nervous about picking a stain that I would not like and would be stuck with. Michael spent time explaining to me how stains last and the type of stains that could go towards the orange color I was trying to avoid. He sent me pictures and was very helpful in the process of picking a stain and finish. While Michael and his team were working, they noticed some areas that still had carpet and staples (which were supposed to be removed by our General Contractor, but did not do a great job), and he volunteered to remove it, and was happy to do it! Once all the work was done, my husband and I checked to see how everything looked and we loved it!!! Everything looked so fresh and the stain we selected (weathered oak) looked stunning! I love how everything blended in so well and the stain looked so natural. The team did an AMAZING JOB!!! While you want the team to do an amazing job with the actual job of refinishing, you also want to work with someone that communicates well and cares about the job. This is another area that Michael goes above and beyond. I cannot believe how easy it was to relay information and get a response back!! Michael returned my calls and texts in record time. Michael is not someone that is going into the job just for a paycheck. He cares about his clients and truly wants to see them happy at the end of the project. He even stayed back to give us information on cleaning, and things to avoid to keep the floors looking fresh. My husband and I got so lucky finding Floors by Val!! Please give him a call if you need anything floor related done, he will NOT disappoint!!

We hired Marco from Hardwood Flooring to refinish two bedroom floors and the stairway in our 1910…read moreArts and Crafts home. He came twice to the house, spoke with my husband and I and assured us that the work could be done while we were away for a one week vacation. He promised that the bedroom floors would match the hallway color and gloss and that the house would be ready for painting and installation of a carpet runner upon our return. He gave us a bid and, while not the lowest bid we received, we decided to go with him as he was recommended by a friend. About mid way through our vacation, I texted Marco to inquire how the job was coming. Marco exclaimed that they forgot to do the steps, but assured me that they would be done when we returned in three days. Upon our return we found the company van parked on our curbside, which was muddy and full of deep tire tracks. Inside the house we found that the bedroom floors did not match the hallway gloss, a patch needed to be done in one room and the wood was a different grain and color ( looks horrible!), a new doorway saddle was installed which also did not match in color and the work on the stairs was substandard - they didn't clean out the caulk and stained right over the lumpy bumpy mess. Our painter spent considerable time cleaning the corners out and restraining the wood under that caulk before painting. On top of all of that, his employees had removed the tape we had placed over the doors to our master bed and bath. Someone had deficated in the toilet of our marble bath, tried to unplug the toilet with the toilet brush and had splashed feces all over the bathroom. Marco came to the house, was argumentative and rude - denying any responsibility for anything. He lied about telling us that the color and gloss of the floors would match and his employees lied about having soiled our bathroom. Wish we had not hired this company. Lesson learned - be wary who you trust in your home. Worst home renovation experience ever!

After…read morethe job was "done", I found that his sloppy workers did excessive damage to my newly painted walls and ceilings, in addition to missing several areas that were not done. In addition, he applied wrong poly finish from what we agreed to use.

Instead of apologizing, Marco got nasty me and said it is what it is. He may seem like a nice guy at first, but don't be fooled.

The paint is so horrible that I have mold now on my walls because he should have used satin or semi-gloss paint! Instead, he used cheap paint. I had to pay HUNDREDS of dollars to get rid of mold on my walls because of Ceasar's mistakes! His workers "renovated" my kitchen and didn't have the decency to patch up holes in the kitchen wall and plumbing. Now, I easily have bugs coming into my apartment. I had to ask ANOTHER contractor and pay MORE money to remove the kitchen counter and patch up the wall. Ceasar should NEVER be in business. His workers also replaced the bathroom window guard WITHOUT patching up holes or cracks in the wall. Every time I shower, bugs come in the bathroom. Beware! He is cheap and takes advantage of customers who do not know about renovations so that he is asked to come in again and "repair" his mistakes.

I rarely write reviews, however, Bravo Contractors did such a fantastic job for me that I felt they…read moretruly deserve the recognition here. First of all, I considered myself a very informed and educated consumer. I am very particular, pay extreme attention to details and I know exactly what I want. Let's put it this way, if I was in construction, I would be afraid to deal with myself as a customer. When my wife and I decided to remodel the kitchen and 2 bathrooms in our condo, the biggest challenge we faced was to find a reputable contractor for the job. After picking out the tiles and cabinets (read my other review here for another fantastic guy to deal with), we concentrated on finding a contractor. Out of 5 contractors I interviewed, one gave me a ridiculous estimate (he got a horrible review here by the way), one was booked solid for the next 9 months, and two did not get back to me for whatever reason. Only Cesar from Bravo came out with a realistic plan for a reasonable price, so we decided to give them a try. We started with kitchen. The crew took lots of effort and carefully tapes up the area to reduced dust. My existing hardwood floor was also covered and protected. Demolition was a non-event. Old cabinets were quickly removed. My existing island/bar was also removed so the crew can tile underneath. When they remove the existing tiles, we found the previous owner had tiled right on top of the old linoleum floor. The crew had to remove the tile, concrete, linoleum and glue to reach the bare floor. After cleaning they poured concrete on the whole floor to bring it level to the existing hardwood floor, so no threshold or reducer will be needed. Pablo and Luis did a terrific job here. The tiling process was not rushed and no shortcuts were taken. EVERY SINGLE GROUT LINE WAS PERFECTLY STRAIGHT AND ALIGNED. All of the tiles were leveled with each other. You can only truly appreciate the beauty of it if you ever tried to tile the floor by yourself. After the floor was done, carpenter Javier installed the cabinets with the upmost precision. The tight fit of the cabinets and crown moldings made these store bought cabinets look like custom made for my kitchen and appliances. After the kitchen, we started with the bathroom. There were no surprises here. Extra cares were taken not to damage the existing whirlpool bathtub during construction. When I bought the condo, the previous owner put in the bathtub recently. However, the apron was broken and it was not level. I found a similar apron to replace, but it did not fit quite right. The crew leveled the tub, design and laid the tiles in the way to make it fits perfectly and it looks now like it came with the tub. They did it without me asking and I thought that was nice. I was a little surprised to see the crew custom build a wood frame behind the drywall to recess mount a nice Sophia medicine cabinet we bought. Most handymen would probably just cut the drywall to size and shove in the cabinet with a couple tubes worth of silicon. You can't tell the difference anyway from the outside once it's finished, but the way Bravo did it was the correct way and again no shortcuts were taken. Our master bath was more problematic. The original layout was for us to go though a 24" door at the end of a narrow hallway between two closets. The door was always awkward to use and interfere with the closet doors. We decided to remove the door and knock down the wall from the top of the door to the ceiling. We added a pocket door outside the hallway between the closets. This modification immediately opens up the space and it does not feel so cramped anymore. Javier again did an excellent custom job and make the door way looks much more upscale than what we had. The master bath only had a standing shower. My wife always wanted to have a bathtub in there. The only option we had is to put a Japanese soaking tub in there. I found a stainless steel one online but after going over the dimensions with Cesar, we found it was almost impossible to haul it up in the bathroom without tearing the condo apart. Rather than risking the uncertainty of it not fit, we decided to have Bravo custom build one for us Pablo spend almost two weeks building this monster starting from wrapping the surrounding walls with pvc sheet to make sure it will never leak. He finished the job with glass mosaic tiles. As you can see from the picture, I can't hope for a better deep soaking tub! As with any construction jobs, there bound to have mistakes and mishaps, but Bravo's crew always correct the issues immediately without question and hesitation. I can totally understand that one can feel almost helpless when facing the task of selecting a trust worthy contractor and start a home improvement project. Trust me and give Bravo a try. As A person who went through the whole process himself, I sincerely hope that my experience can help you save some money, headache and aggravation.
