"We received three quotes from providers here on Angie's List for the renovation/remodel of our master bathroom, main bathroom and kitchen. We decided to choose Superior Building Concepts based on the timeliness and detail of the quote we received for each of the three rooms and on the caliber of the reviews here on Angie's List. The project is now complete, and we can honestly say we made a very wise and sensible choice in going with Stan and Superior Building Concepts for our remodeling project. In fact, we were so impressed with Stan and his team that we've decided to go ahead and schedule them to start the total renovation of our kitchen.
The original plan was to do just the master bathroom since we knew there was a leak somewhere under the floor with subsequent water damage permeating to the ceiling below in the garage. Stan professionally removed all items from the master bathroom including the damaged sub-floor and it was soon obvious that the damage had infiltrated into the back corner of the main bathroom as well. This opened up an opportunity to enlarge the tiny shower in the master bath by adjusting the design of the main bath, and so we decided to move forward with the complete remodel/renovation of both bathrooms. Since the cabinet in the master bath had water damage at its base, we also decided to use custom-built cabinets provided by a custom cabinet maker contracted through Superior Building Concepts.
Stan did all the demolition and reconstruction work including removing a small privacy wall in the main bathroom and enlarging the master bath shower by moving an existing wall that formed one side of the master bath shower and the back of an alcove for the toilet in the main bath. He also tore out all the water damaged flooring and ceiling in the garage below. All damage was professionally repaired, then all new plumbing was installed by Stan's plumber to move the toilet in the main bath and re-position the shower drain in the master bath. In addition, new ceiling fans were installed and all the old venting was replaced and brought up to code in the attic. Once all the new plumbing and venting was complete - including new valves for the master bath shower and main bath tub/shower - Stan's electrician came in to install a new light fixture for the enlarged master bath shower and move the existing light fixture in the main bath alcove. This alcove was reduced to around a foot in depth to allow for the installation of a custom built-in with shelves and cabinets with the remaining two or so feet going towards the enlarged shower in the master bath. Everything was then tested for leaks prior to inspection and approval by the city for proper adherence to current code. Stan then installed all the new sub-floor and drywall - including down in the garage - to complete the redesign of both bathrooms. Plaster, texture and paint were then applied on the main walls in both bathrooms and on the ceiling in the garage, followed by installation of a new soaking tub in the main bath, the shower sub-floor in the master bath, and cement-board around the master bath shower and main bath tub enclosure. All the cement board and shower sub-floor were thoroughly moisture treated and fully tested for leaks, and everything was again checked and approved by the city inspector. Stan then brought in his tiling expert who installed porcelain mosaic floor tile in the master bath and marble mosaic floor tile in the main bath. Tiling then commenced in the master bath shower and around the tub enclosure including the addition of recessed shower niches and decorative mosaic strips in both bathrooms. Everything was then professionally grouted based on our choice of grout colors and materials. Then installation of the custom-built vanities, custom built-in cabinet in the main bath, light fixtures, toilets, marble counter-tops*, sinks, faucets, shower and bath fixtures and all other bath accessories. The last thing was cleaning and sealing all the tile, installing the shower door in the master bath and installing the custom built mirror in the main bath.
All this work was perfectly managed by Stan - every step of the entire process occurred on schedule with the highest attention to detail and with an absolutely superb level of quality. The entire project was completed within six weeks and there were only two non-sequential work days when no work was being done. Stan also answered all our questions along the way, and provided us with superb feedback and sensible recommendations throughout the project.
In summary, we could not be happier with the results. Stan has to be, without a doubt, one of the most professional, friendly, attentive and customer-oriented contractors currently operating in the greater Portland/Vancouver area. We simply cannot recommend him enough to folks looking for timely work undertaken with a superb attention to detail and quality at a fair and reasonable price.
* We had already purchased the marble counter-tops from Quartz and Granite Countertops, Inc. out of Tigard, OR. Please see our separate review of this company for further details.
