Years ago I had my kitchen renovated by one contractor and guest bath renovated by another one…read more Both did marginal work and created a lot of stress in my life due to their lack of concern for 5-star service. I was so disillusioned that it took me over 10 years to find someone honest, reliable, gives attention to detail, and really cares about their work even though it isn't their own home. Ryan had renovated two condos on my floor and upon my neighbor's recommendation and seeing what a beautiful job he did with her kitchen, I decided to hire him for my master bathroom which was in dire need being almost 50 years old. Here are reasons why we are SO HAPPY with the finished product and why we highly recommend Ryan for your renovation needs: 1. Responds quickly to your calls or texts 2. Very meticulous top notch work especially his tile work and painting 3. Good communicator; let me know what to expect each day and kept me informed on day to day progress 4. Resourceful to keep costs to a minimum, no surprises 5. When uncovering unexpected surprises Ryan pivots well to solve the problem 6. Researched to help achieve the look I wanted in bathroom 7. Respectfully checked in with me before making any assumptions 8. Offered sound suggestions and advice 9. Showed up every day and never had me wondering where he was 10. Considerate of my neighbors and worked as quietly as possible, even taking the tile to his home to cut since it would make a lot of noise in my building My husband and I are thrilled with the final product and asked Ryan be our "go-to" guy for other projects both large and small. CHANGE IN HIS CONTACT INFO One last thing- his phone number on Yelp has been changed so please contact him at (808) 476-3864 or Jmalish@hawaii.rr.com Mahalo for reading and good luck on your renovation or home project!

The reasons for only 3 stars are: 1) What he said would be a…read more1 day job he prolonged into 3, & offered no real explanation other than being "tied up." The project was to be finished same day on Saturday, but then he said he would come back Sunday at 9am. Sunday at 8:45am he texts to say he can't make it (no explanation), so he reschedules for Monday at 1:30pm. Monday at 1:30pm he doesn't show, then we get a text at 1:40pm, & he ends up rescheduling for 5pm. 2) When he finally shows to finish the job, he brings his 2 boys w/him w/out even a heads-up. (Unprofessional & inconsiderate, in my opinion.) And he left black smudges & scratches on our newly painted kitchen cabinet doors. The bottom line is, we were just a small job for him, & therefore not a priority. I felt that acutely. He has a friendly & pleasant demeanor, and if you don't mind him not showing up sometimes & unannounced guests, you shouldn't have any problems.

He installed engineered hardwood floors from Mirage throughout our entire apartment, and the results were absolutely flawless. He and his son are the definition of professional: courteous, meticulous, and incredibly skilled. Their woodworking is second to none--truly the best we've seen in Hawaii. They don't cut corners and use only the highest-end equipment (Festool), which shows in the precision of their work. They were considerate of our space, always kept things clean, and the pricing was more than fair for the exceptional quality. It's rare to find craftsmen this talented and this easy to work with. We've already recommended them to friends and wouldn't hesitate to hire them again. If you want beautiful floors done right the first time, Marek is the one to call

After moving back to Mililani Mauka in 2011, I knew that I wanted to do a makeover of my home but…read morewas never quite able to put it together. I knew what I wanted but didn't have the time or know how to blend everything into the home environment that I envisioned. Initially, I consulted with several other design companies but never really felt very comfortable with any one person or company. When I met Lenore for the first time, she seemed to be very down to earth and was more than willing to work within my budget. She was also very accommodating with my work schedule and often times met up with contractors and gave me updates when it was convenient for me. She provided me with drawings, samples of materials, and ideas as far as what she felt would work or blend well together. In the end, my home renovation was completed. I was very happy with the results and also ended up with a friend in Lenore. We still keep in touch to this day. I highly recommend Lenore if you need assistance with a home remodel/interior design project no matter how big or small it may be. You will not be disappointed.

I moved to Manoa in 2009 and the home was in desperate need of a makeover. It wasn't until 2012…read morethat I was finally ready to renovate and chose to use the interior design services of Design Fruition. Lenore was very professional and knew exactly where my problem areas were and knew exactly how to fix them. I could tell she had a great eye. She had produced drawings, samples and ideas that I simply fell in love with. With the use of space planning, a lot of paint, re-design work and furnishings that she helped to choose, she converted my home into what is now the sanctuary that I've always wanted to come home to. Not only is she experienced, but she is also accommodating and always made time for me. A true professional yet Lenore made me feel comfortable from the beginning. I've enjoyed her work so much that I've just recently acquired her services for home staging a property that I am trying to sell. I would highly recommend Lenore and Design Fruition to any person looking for interior design or home staging services.

I asked Yelp for a recommendation and Oahu Windows and Doors contacted me very quickly. They said they would send Nick, "our repair guy," out to take a look and give me an estimate on a repair. Nick arrived exactly at the appointed time, took a quick look (and listen) at my door and diagnosed the problem in a minute or two. Then, since the problem was a seal on the door, asked me if I simply wanted him to remove the seal to stop the sound, and gave me the pros and cons of doing so. I said yes and he removed the seal and put things back together. He gave me some tips on what to use to lubricate the door, as well as--if I ever wanted to replace the door--what I should look for and how to save money. Nick was knowledgeable, personable and effective in solving my problem. I highly recommend Oahu Windows and Doors.

The first impression I had of Brian was good. He listened to what I wanted to have done and did the detail work and used the paint products I requested. The job went smoothly within the time frame that he told us and all metal areas of our house exterior were primed as requested as well as a whole house wood primer and two finish coats on top of that. His respectfulness and attention to detail was impressive. His price was within range of two of the other five quotes and was reasonable. Brian is a Licensed Painter in good standing with the State of Hawaii with no complaints outstanding. Brian also has Liability Insurance. As a former Contractor I knew that I wanted a Licensed Contractor and I was not disappointed with Brian's work. Our house looks beautiful and we are very satisfied. If you are looking for a painter, check McBride Painting out as I believe that you will not be disappointed in hiring this company.
