We highly recommend NOVA Home Renovations.

SVC Homes performed the renovation of our bungalow in Brookland. Their bid was also much more…read moreaffordable than the other two bids. The work included converting the front porch into a sunroom, extending our rear breakfast room with all glass enclosure, remodeling our main level bathroom, removing our chimney and converting to high efficiency boiler and HWH. The biggest part of the job was digging down ~2ft, with new underpinning and slab, new plumbing, electrical, framing, etc, and converting our full unfinished basement into a legal 2 bedroom, 1 bath accessory apartment with two private entrances. They also did all the exterior work, including stairways and stairwells, stonework, and railings. Neighbors and random pedestrians have stopped me in the yard to compliment me on the work they have done. I am a mechanical engineer with a focus on structure, so I am very particular about certain details, and I was pleased to see that he was easy to work with in terms of doing things a certain way, and also very creative when coming up with a solution when a challenge would present itself. And there will be many challenges during construction. I also performed some of the work myself, flooring, kitchen installation, trim work, painting and of course I got in over my head with some things. (It's difficult to get things done when you have two kids and a full time job) But Sandro was very understanding. He would advise me on standard industry practice, and if I needed help he would give me a very reasonable quote on helping me finish. He was always maintaining contact, and is very organized when it comes to payments and schedule. His guys are very skilled, clean, and dedicated hard workers. They are very kind, and easy to work with if you are a DIYer. This was the 2nd phase of renovation to our house. We learned a lot of lessons from the first phase when it comes to a good general contractor. Price, quality, communication, schedule, organization, and creativity are all important aspects of the job, and SVC Homes gets 5 stars in all categories. I have been recommending them to all my friends, neighbors, and colleagues.

I'm a bit puzzled by the owner's response as they should be able to see from their own email system…read morethat they had not replied to my last email. Since that email contained critical conditions for repair (see review above), the lack of a reply made it unclear that repairs would be made at all. However, since my review, they reached out directly, gave an explanation for the delay and told me that I had been in the queue for repairs. Unfortunately, since it had already been months since the project finished and I had not received a reply to my last email, I had already begun to handle the warranty issues myself. I appreciated their subsequent offer to reimburse me for my time and effort on warranty repairs and their statement of intention to address the additional claims (which they said that they had not addressed until now as they had hoped to handle them at the same time as the warranty issues). The star rating in this case is for their improved customer service, but the original review for the work on the project remains unchanged. [I also want to address the implication in the owner's response, which is that posting a negative review is only used for dispute resolution. I was not using it for that purpose, as should be evident from the fact that I had moved ahead with repairs, nor do I think that that's a good reason for a review. Sharing experiences is how people learn, and detailed reviews can be useful for homeowners in preparing for home repairs, whether or not they use the reviewed provider. The more information provided, the easier it is to assess a review's value and apply it to one's own situations if useful. ]

The wall between the kitchen and dining contained duct work for both the dining room and upstairs, plumbing was done to the code of 1960 when the house was built, and previous owners/flippers did things in slapdash ways that made the process harder than it needed to be. But at the end of the day, what I sketched out came to life, and beautifully! Andrii and his team worked with all the things I really wanted out of my kitchen (including using existing appliances, so they had to move them around the space a lot while working, and some fancy stuff that is non-standard including that crazy butterfly sink that you see in some of the afters!), worked to bring things current (like moving plumbing off exterior walls, so I no longer have to worry about pipes freezing), and got it done. A total transformation! The price was middling among quotes, and I felt it was a great value since I got quality work and didn't have to do much (like ordering stuff...Andrii always had someone who could get things at a normal/retail price without me doing it). Job completed around our "contingency" finish date, which was only one week more than the "we hope to finish by" date, which is really good for a project of this scope. I am very satisfied, and if I didn't drive them crazy, will be using them for my bathrooms in a few years!

**Excellent Service from Start to Finish - Highly Recommend!**…read more Malek from Sider Construction exceeded our expectations in every way. After finding him on Yelp (where his stellar reviews caught my attention), he responded promptly with a detailed and fair estimate that gave me confidence in moving forward. One thing that impressed me right from the start was his patience when I needed extra time to coordinate with my tenants' schedules. He was understanding and did not make me feel rushed, which speaks volumes about his customer service approach. Malek delivered more than he promised - showing up precisely on time and maintaining clear communication throughout the project. My tenants were equally impressed. The quality of work was great and completed at a (more than) fair price that reflected true value. It's rare to find a contractor who combines reliability, skill, and genuine professionalism so seamlessly. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Sider Construction again and will definitely be recommending Malek to friends and family. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful project so smooth and positive!

I love my new Master Bath!…read more This is the second time I have hired Ryan Reph for a major remodeling project, and I couldn't be happier. All the vendors he sent me to were top notch, the team was always on time. Communication was awesome, and I always knew who was going to be there, and what they would be doing. Ryan has been doing this a LONG time, and while he strongly feels that the customer is always right, he is also more than willing to break down the pros and cons of any decision. You make the decision, but Ryan is more than able to give you the benefit of his experience. I love the quality of the materials and the workmanship, and the value for the product cannot be beat. Clean up was very thorough, and they sent a man back just to go over any small items after the job was done (I was hard pressed to find any). I can't really think why I would hire anyone else.

Please note that this review is only based on the design and consultation steps of a bathroom…read morerenovation we tried to do with Ryan Reph Remodeling. We contacted Selwa Reph to come to our house and start the process for giving us an estimate to renovate a 10'x12' bathroom. While discussing what we wanted, I pointed out that because it will be the most used bathroom in the house, we want it to be more than just a basic job and were willing to spend some money to use higher-end materials and to please reflect that in the price estimates for the contract. I asked the same of her that I did the other companies who came in....please don't quote us the lowest price estimate for materials....we're not buying plain white tile from Home Depot, so please estimate for midrange materials so if we have the budget we can go for even nicer stuff, but don't budget for the low-end materials. We have not done a renovation like this before, so we had no idea what cheaper materials cost vs more expensive ones, so we were relying on her expertise. When we showed a picture of a shower with glass tiles, we asked Selwa how those materials would change the prices quoted in the contract and she said it would be a difference of a few hundred dollars. We signed with Reph Remodeling and they gave us a price range of $8/SqFt for tiles to work with. They also sent the specs for the job to Architectural Tile and Ceramic in Vienna. When my wife and I showed up there to select tile, grout, flooring, etc., out of all the selections in that store, there was about 1/4th of one small bin that let us pick from about 20 basic porcelain tiles in that price range (see picture). With such a pathetic selection, we went ahead and picked out tiles we liked in the $16 price range. What had been an $1,850 allowance ballooned to a $5,920 estimate from Architectural Tile and Ceramic. And that amount was based on the contractors discounted prices! When I spoke with Selwa Reph about her estimate for $8/SqFt, she defended it and said I should have been able to find something in my price range there but said she would call the salesperson and review the quote they had provided us. She also claimed she specified the "difference of a few hundred dollars" for glass tiles was only in reference to the construction cost...not the added cost of the tiles which she did not mention or use to adjust her estimate of $8/SqFt....why didn't she add in the change in the cost to materials as well? When we went to another tile shop to redo the entire process of selecting materials, the manager of the store immediately caught an error on the original quote from the other store that added on over $1,300 to the quote; calling for a whole palate of 50 lb bags of thinset......56 bags in all....2,800 pounds of thinset for a 10'x12' bathroom. The other tile shop said we would need 4 bags at most. The total from Architectural Tile and Ceramic was still way over Selwa's estimate of $1,850, but a huge glaring error that should stand out to a company that works with this all day every day. When I asked Selwa about this error, she admitted that she did not actually review the order with the sales rep and just never caught the error. It was after bringing this issue up along with pointing out my displeasure about the lowball pricing estimate that Selwa Reph decided to terminate the contract and returned our deposit. While they get great reviews and I have no basis for commenting on the demo & construction team, they are not cheap so we expected better results at all stages of our interactions with them. If you decide to work with them, just be skeptical of the materials pricing unless you already know exactly what you're going to have them install and then make sure you have someone else review the order for materials accuracy. I will note that the contractor we wound up going with wound up costing less, immediately verified the estimates from the tile supplier and went over our selections to make sure he understood what we wanted so he could give us the most accurate estimate which wound up being within $150 of the final total for materials.
