All Renovations was started by a local graduate of George Washington University. We are fully licensed in all trade work including building, electrical and plumbing . We have always put our customers first in delivering what we promise without any gimmicks. The reputation of our company is proven through our satisfactory track record including winning the highly coveted Angie’s List Super Service Award and being selected as a Best Pick Report contractor on numerous occasions. The staff at our company values your time with prompt on site visits, quick turnaround in providing cost estimates, and a responsive attitude until job completion. We can assure you that our pricing and written warranty provides value in your investment when compared with other professionally licensed contractors. Due to our staffing requirements we are only able to take on jobs $10k or higher.
"I am giving All Renovations 5 stars for the basement renovation in large part because of Adrian’s excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail. Our job was pretty extensive. It included moving support columns, demo and rebuild exterior stairway, adding a full bath, extending the finished/framed portion of the basement, moving the circuit-breaker panel, and re-doing our half-bath. The job took 6 months, which was about twice as long as we expected. Omar was always very responsive and provided good feedback. Adrian is very good at explaining things and soliciting your input when options/alternatives exist. He definitely does not take short-cuts if quality would suffer. He is also very considerate/careful inside your home and cleans-up after himself. Our $102k project ballooned to $125k, mostly due to nice to have add-ons and unforeseen issues. But there were several items I feel should have been caught at the contract onset. E.g. the need for a floor drain ($900), considering that we were getting rid of the utility sink basin. There was also an extra $4k to replace the drywall in the half bath since the existing paint was too textured (sponge) to paint over. But we were very pleased with the outcome and would definitely recommend All Renovations."

Virginia-Based, Leading Kitchen and Bath Remodeler Since 1994 Class A Licensed, Insured, Bonded & Award Winning Vienna Showroom: 112 Church St. NW. Vienna, VA 22180 Herndon Showroom: 285 Sunset Park Dr. Herndon, VA 20170 With over 28 years of experience, My Kitchen and Bath has created some of the most exciting kitchens and bathrooms in the Washington D.C. area. We offer comprehensive remodeling services including full-service kitchen and bath remodels, custom cabinetry, granite, countertops, tile, carpet design, and customized plans and layouts. We know you are very busy, and don’t want your remodel to drag on and on while you have your life put on hold waiting for the project to draw to a close. That’s why we work quickly and efficiently to ensure that all of our projects are completed either on time or early. From the beginning stages of planning and preparation all the way through to the beautiful finished product, we are here for you. We will treat your home like it’s our home. We are committed to treating your job no matter how big or how small, as if we were working on our own home. The level of care and commitment to quality is our promise to every customer. We are excited to work with you and give you the care and attention you deserve!
"I really wanted to be able to leave a wonderful review, especially as there are so many good ones, which was partly why we chose My Kitchen and Bath-Vienna to do our small kitchen renovation. To start with the positives, HUGE shout out to Josh Turgut who had the grandest of vision for our tiny 1940’s kitchen which included some significant behind the wall design challenges. He designed us an awesome kitchen with everything we were looking for within our budget. We are very appreciative of his expertise, kindness, and overall professionalism. As for the project itself, the begin, middle, and end of our project was nothing but disappointing. Demolition left uncleared debris and some scratches on our glass topped washer as nothing was covered underneath in our basement (directly underneath our kitchen). The contractor was unprofessional, and clearly lacked technical ability and attention to detail. There was damage to cabinet fronts (which had to be argued with the project manager not just to be touched up with paint but replaced; won’t come in for weeks post project completion), grout poured in our back yard, and having to replacing a potion of our kitchen floor after having been completed blaming “it was walked on” (him and another worker rolled the fridge over the floor not even 24 hours after grout was complete). Our new dishwasher was scratched upon reinstallation with nothing reported to us about it. The construction manager UT seemed knowledgeable and when we were able to connect, seemed to want to ensure things were going as planned and to our satisfaction. The project manager Burak responded, mostly in haste, to all my inquires of questions and concern and came out to meet in person several times. It didn’t seem as if he had any specific information about our project, as there was no follow up after demolition regarding our back wall which we were unsure could be taken down and was a very important part of our kitchen renovation. A cabinet was also installed with built in trash cans that we did not request and were unable to replaced with our original request for a regular cabinet. I think it should also be noted, in my opinion, that the price of some of the renovation was over priced, being charged $600 to put in a water line for our fridge or the $550 for hardware to be installed (we supplied our own purchased hardware). Overall, we are left a well designed kitchen with some unsightly errors."

Most outdoor kitchen pros finish the actual build in four to six weeks. That window covers framing, flooring, utilities, and appliance installation. Your timeline may stretch if the site needs extra prep, special-order materials, or you hit a busy season for contractors. Remember, planning, permits, and design meetings happen before the clock starts, so budget extra time for those steps.
In cold or wet climates, winterizing is worth the effort. Seal countertops, drain water lines, cover appliances, and ensure that cabinets and fixtures are constructed from weather-resistant materials, such as granite or stainless steel. Adding a roof or pergola helps protect surfaces from snow, rain, and UV rays. A few preventative steps each fall can keep repairs and frustration to a minimum come spring.
Yes—placing the kitchen against the house makes hooking up gas, water, and power simpler and cheaper. Keep anything that emits open flames—such as grills, griddles, and pizza ovens—at least 10 feet away from siding or other combustible materials. Check local fire codes before finalizing the layout so you stay safe and compliant.
You’ll need weather-rated outlets for appliances such as blenders, refrigerators, and lights. Ensure that every receptacle is GFCI-protected to shut off power quickly if moisture seeps in—a code requirement in most areas. A licensed electrician can run wiring, install the boxes, and add covers that stand up to sun and rain.
