If you are looking for a very professional and very reliable contractor for your project, small or…read morelarge, then look no further. We did a full reno on the mid level of our home. Tore out walls, windows, doors, floors, lighting, stairs, tile, brickwork, and installed a totally new kitchen. Converted a garage to living space. This reno went about as well as anyone could ever hope...I think we are now spoiled to work with anyone else! We will be calling John again once we are ready to tackle the rest of our home. I have recommended Lakewood to our neighbors and friends.

We hired Lakewood Home Builders to build a 2-story addition following an architects' plans. The…read morework was completed in 2019. Since then, we have struggled to get them to correct problems. The mini-split systems their HVAC subcontractor installed have never worked properly. They run for a little while (long enough to pass inspection apparently) and then shut off and have to be reset. Their HVAC sub said they were getting new units for us, and now that I have asked again they say they are out of warranty so they don't have to. The new concrete driveway is deteriorating already. The deterioration seems to be only on the main portion so presumably a problem with that concrete pour. When I asked about the first signs of deterioration my concerns were brushed off. The driveway was also initially made narrower than the civil engineer's specifications so a strip had to be added to make it the correct width, which looks unsightly. They also cut corners with the architect's specifications. The back stairs were supposed to be low-rise - about 6.5" - to match our front stairs for accessibility. Instead they used higher risers so those stairs have a rise about 8" and are hard for me to use. The attic pull-down stairs that were specified to be insulated are not. I worry that there are more things that we just haven't noticed that were not done to specifications. We like the space, but the rec room is unusable in winter without a working heating system. Another warning - their HVAC subcontractor installed HVAC air vents in the floor of a bathroom including next to the toilet. Imagine what happens when the toilet overflows? Code allowed that (and may still, be careful) but it's certainly a bad idea (code does not allow HVAC vents in bathroom floors in commercial buildings) and I would hesitate to trust a contractor who built like that. I really wish we had chosen a different contractor.

Phenomenal work!…read more AVC Home Improvement fully renovated our family room full bathroom. It was a full gut -- complete renovation with new everything: lighting, heated flooring, vanity, tub with handheld shower, and more. They were exceptionally knowledgeable, courteous, and accommodating. To prevent the family room from getting dirty, they covered the floors and furniture in the entire family room. They always came on time and were incredibly diligent in their work. What I especially liked about AVC Home Improvement is that they are the ones who are actually do all the work. They are not a company who contract out their work. We had additional requests during the renovation of our full bathroom: adding lighting for the tub/shower area, installing grab bars and heated flooring. AVC didn't hesitate to accommodate our requests. They also installed a new utility room sink for the washing machine, and relocated the washing machine so that it is now next to the dryer. That makes it so much easier for us. Their recommendations for the electrician and countertop people were also exceptional. I would not hesitate to use ACV Home Improvement for any future renovations, and happily recommend their services to others.

He is a true professional and meant to be in the craft he has mastered! His level of attention to detail is as if he is performing in his own 'forever home'. He is so respectful of your time, your things, your opinion and desires. He has such wonderful ideas and solutions! We had 3 other projects with different contractors on our home and they were all subpar. We have used Costi on 2 different remodel projects and plan on another soon. We only wish we had found him sooner! An all around pleasure doing business with! We really can't say enough, there is no one else we trust!

We've done two pretty sizable projects with FGS - our entire first floor, including kitchen and a…read morefull bath, and an outdoor backyard oasis. Both projects were a painless process, mostly stress free due to FGS's open and clear communication. FGS will always be our go-to contractor - they're not the cheapest, but the quality of their work cannot be beat, and again, their ability to communicate any problems in a clear way puts them a mile above any other contractor we've worked with. They anticipate all the questions you'll have and keep you informed every step of the way. Highly highly recommend them to everyone!

I got a quote from FGS for a new composite deck last year. Unfortunately, we had some other…read moreprojects that were more pressing and expensive, so we had to put off the deck. I had FGS requote this year. FGS was slightly more expensive than the other quotes we got, but came recommended by my roofer and had good reviews. They also seemed to understand what I wanted better than the other companies I got quotes from, so I went with them on the deck job. They were able to start the project when I wanted them to and were done in a couple weeks. I also had them repair the woodwork on my house around the deck and repair an outlet that wasn't working (for an extra cost). After completion, the deck and other work look great and everything functions as new. I am very pleased and finally started using my deck for some outdoor griddling this past weekend. FSG did a great job and I would be very happy to use them again for other projects!

We recently had the pleasure of working with the Traylor team for a major renovation of our home,…read moreand I am happy with the results. From start to finish, the entire process was professional and as smooth as it could be for a multi room home renovation. The initial consultation process was especially helpful because they work with a great design team where you can really see how the materials will look together. The duo of Renata and Andre both have great ideas from both a function and design perspective but still try to accommodate the budget. They provide visuals before committing to the project and they were flexible enough to change the layout to our liking several times - we could be pretty honest about what we wanted or not. The outcome was pretty exact to the final renderings. We were given regular updates on the progress, any unexpected issues, and how they were being addressed. Traylor was always upfront about timelines and costs, which helped avoid any unpleasant surprises later on. They document every detail in an organized way so it is never unclear. It was a big project for us so, yes of course, we had add-ons and spent more than expected but that was not their pushing but more our choices. Of note, the project was definitely completed on time but we also had a VERY flexible timeline. Still I got the impression they always push forward to stay on track. The craftsmanship was exactly what we had hoped for and we have already gotten compliments on the transformation of our home. Post-renovation, the customer service has remained excellent. When I had a minor issue with a cabinet handle and drawer, they sent their main point person and construction team again to fix it at no additional cost. Their commitment to customer satisfaction is evident, even after the job is done. I do recommend this team to anyone considering a bigger home renovation of the main attraction areas of their home. Their work does have a clean "wow" effect.

Our tiny 1950s kitchen was once the worst room in our house, and now it is easily the best. We are…read morevery happy we hired Traylor to complete the renovation for us. We removed the wall between the kitchen and the tiny dining room, and Traylor rerouted HVAC, relocated plumbing, updated electrical, and installed cabinets, counters, and new flooring. The transformation has made a huge difference in how we use our home. The quality of the work is solid, especially given the price--which is truly hard to beat. The team was professional, punctual, and respectful throughout the process. They cleaned up daily, which we really appreciated. Renata and Livia were always responsive, and Andre checked in on progress regularly. One of the most impressive parts of the project was how they matched the new kitchen floor to our existing hardwoods. They removed the old kitchen tile and weaved in new boards seamlessly with the dining room flooring--it looks like it was always one room. Several guests have commented on how great it looks. We're overall very happy with the work Traylor completed for us and will work with them again for our next project.

The process was seamless and I couldn't be happier with the outcome.

We are first-time…read morehome buyers and bought our house on the condition that we'd be able to remove a wall that blocked off the kitchen from another wide open floor plan, and install lights. After our previous contractor left us without communication and without starting the job, we were referred to Greg, who immediately jumped in to get the job done before our move-in date: from start to finish, they were able to take down the wall, add lighting, and paint the room in one week! They offered super helpful advice and solutions to problems we didn't anticipate, like adding tasteful cedar planks to cover unfinished walls left by the previous owners. Not only were they quick and professional, but Greg patiently emailed back and forth with me while at work (since I couldn't have my phone on me) to go over my ideas and keep me updating on what was going on. We are so thankful to have been able to work with NOVA Contractors!!

Had Greg come to our house for an initial consult. He was knowledgeable and personable; we…read moreappreciated his recommendations and he shared a similar vision of what we wanted. Subsequently, we decided to move forward with his recommendation for an engineer to ensure the wall we wanted to open wasn't a load bearing wall. The engineer came and at the end of his assessment told us his visit and write up would be $900. We were a bit caught off guard but was willing to pay because we wanted to move forward with the project. And then, crickets. No word from Greg or the engineer. After a few ignored emails he finally responded to my husband; he thought it was a different client who he had recently met. When my husband reminded Greg that he already knew him and had come to our house, again, nothing. The last attempt to reach out to Greg was very disheartening. We were honest, saying we had reached out to other contractors, but that we like him and wanted a quote. He told us to move forward with them as he is pretty busy. Period. The end. What a waist of time!!! Unless your the more profitable project, move on!
