If I could give Renovo 10 stars, I would. We purchased an old ranch house from 1972 that needed a significant upgrade. Everything was original, including the popcorn ceilings, old, "crispy" shag carpets, peeling wallpaper and original appliances. Nothing was properly insulated, and asbestos was everywhere. The place was a mess.
We got 6 estimates. Although Ben was not the cheapest (never hire the cheapest contractor anyway - you WILL regret it), he was very reasonably priced, and by far, the best in every possible way. He has a great energy - warm, positive, honest - a true professional with integrity. He offered me a very fair, pressure-free quote along with documentation, including all of his credentials, license numbers, etc. He was transparent from the start, which I greatly appreciated.
His team is just incredible - SO dedicated and hard-working. They did everything from insulating our attic to digging footers and adding posts inside our house - after taking down a support wall to open up our space (not an easy feat!) His cabinet maker is so meticulous, and his tiler is a true artist. His painters, electricians and plumbers, are all very knowledgeable and excellent at what they do.
My project manager was particularly wonderful to work with as well. I did not live at the house during the remodel; I live clear across the country. Renovating a house that is over 2,000 miles away can be daunting, but Luis made everything seamless. His communication skills were on point. We spoke and texted every day. He was a true partner throughout the entire renovation process which put me at ease every step of the way.
I was so pleased with the results of our interior that I welcomed the team back to renovate our exterior a month later. Once again, they did an incredible job. They repaired our walls, fascia, rewired our electricity, painted, added siding, tiled our fireplace, and so much more. All that only took a mere month. Honestly, they are really such a pleasure to work with.
About me: I am a [very selective] designer by trade, and have had all 4 of my previous homes gut-renovated over the years, so this was not my first rodeo. Although I worked with very talented contractors in the past, Ben and his team at Renovo are by far the BEST I have ever worked with. If you don’t choose Renovo Remodeling for your next renovation, you will be doing yourself a disservice, because there is no better. I cannot recommend them enough!
