Get matched with top basement remodelers in Howard Lake, MN

"

Good customer service and very responsive to email questions throughout the project.  We had an early surprise at the start of the project, not to vendor's doing, and they were very responsive in identifying a solution and cost.  We added a few things along the way and again they were very responsive in giving us a price and timing.  We had problems with a consistent finish on the new wood flooring and while I would have preferred a faster response to correct the problem I know that it is not always that simple when working with subcontractors and their schedule.  The 'quality' of the work is truly the best and I would hire Craftsman Renovations for future projects.

"Everything went great. The work was done quickly once we were on the schedule. Jon was very responsive to make sure that things were done to our satisfaction. I love the results -Great River was excellent to work with!"

"Steve and his team did an amazing job on our two bathrooms. One was completely gutted and we got a new, level floor; bigger shower; custom made cabinetry and all new plumbing...all in a small space. The other got a new floor, new custom cabinetry and new plumbing and countertop. Steve has high standards which stretched our budget to the max but in the end it was all worth it. He is excellent at communicating and getting back to us quickly when we had concerns or questions. If any little thing was not done right, he would send someone back to fix it (even one year later with a small crack that developed in some caulking.) 1.5 years later we are still thrilled with our bathrooms. We didn't know exactly what we wanted but he helped us think through design possibilities as well. Thank you, Steve and team! p.s. it took a little longer than we expected and there were bumps in the road but isn't that the way it always happens with remodeling? Bottom line....we are so happy with the results."

"We spoke with Dan in late March of this year and met within the week to discuss what we were looking to have completed in our basement.
We had a very strict budget that we wanted to keep to and Dan was honest and upfront about what his pricing was.
There were no hidden costs and Dan seemed to have no problem with letting us know immediately if something was going to cost more than anticipated.
When we signed on with Dan he told us that the project would start within 3 weeks and he was true to his word.
There were a few things we (homeowners) changed along the way and everything went smooth.
The electrician, plumber fireplace & cabinetry companies were all professional and came and went about their business and completed the work in a timely manner.
If we ever had questions or concerns Dan was fairly quick to call us back and his communication was direct and to the point and that was exactly what we were looking for in a builder.
From the beginning Dan and his crew kept things as tidy as can possibly be in the middle of a construction project.  The dust from sheet rock and taping was expected and that was the only concern I had as I have horrible allergies.  
All in all, we are extremely pleased with the job that was completed by Dan and would hire him again without any hesitation.
Our basement was completed within the time frame that we had agreed on and the only reason we went over budget by a few hundred dollars was due to our decisions to change some things along the way.
Very pleased with our decision to hire Dan.
Steve & Taunya

"I've used Mike and Cameron on a few of my remodel projects. Mike pays great attention to craftsmanship. When we ran into some technical complications with the remodel, he was able to solve the problem and keep the project moving. Very pleasant to work with. I will be using Techniques again in the future. Thanks again."

"Nick did some great work on our new composite deck. He is prompt with communication and is patient answering all questions. He worked around changing specs and got everything completed as expected. We're already considering hiring him for our next big project. We would also recommend him to any friends or family."

"We began our remodeling project with ideas I had been thinking about for years. Perry was a good listener and his plans and initial bid included everything I wanted plus some more insightful ideas. It was a good process to plan with him, and we wanted to participate in many ways with the work of the remodel. The building got underway and we were pleased every day as the carpenters kept us posted with their plans and let us know next steps. Our project manager from the office told us when other subcontractors would be here, and for the most part they were right on schedule. As the back wall was removed, they were careful to work to keep out dust and cold, and to maintain the security of our home. We were impressed with the quality of the work. We were pleased with all aspect of the remodel. We were impressed with the abilities and professionalism of all the subcontractors we came in contact with. We liked being able to do some of the tasks ourselves, as well as making some of the materials purchases. . The total outcome is a beautiful enlarged family room and a porch/entry that we love. The addition doesn't look like a modern add on, but is space that feels like it has always belonged as part of our 1935 home We would certainly have RU Remodeling work with us again if we had another remodeling project."

"Alex, the owner has the most amazing work ethic. It was quite a large project to replace all the flooring on my main level. Alex is polite and does excellent work. He quoted us two days to complete the project and he was right on time. He cleaned up everything and left the house spotless. Thank you Alex!"

"Project of demo old deck and build a new to the same plan did not get started until late November. There were periodic weeks during the winter that did not allow for any work. The company owner/manager(Ivan) kept us informed of the status. The quality of workmanship was very good and followed the city inspection. Project that was over 15K came in at the bid price."
