"A few years ago we did a simple remodel of two bathrooms in Menlo Park with FVR. By the time we finished the project we just wanted these folks out of the house. After a few years I felt it was necessary to share our negative experience and how poorly much of the work has held up. Specific issues; 1. Substandard workmanship: a. Heating vent under the house was left unconnected--I was heating our crawlspace and not the bathroom for 6 months. This went undetected until I went under the house for something else! b. Looking in my attic, the electrical work to hookup the bathroom fan is clearly not up to code--junction box is not closed and there are multiple exposed wire splices. c. Gang box for the newly installed light switch is clearly not level and out of square. 2. Numerous examples with low quality finish carpentry: a. Gouge on a newly installed sliding door from the aluminum frame--supposedly fixed then recurred. b. Spackle and paste used to patch the casing around the door frame where it contacts the bathroom tile--looks terrible c. A supposedly 'straight' wall that was rebuilt by FVR, clearly bulges with an obvious curve in the baseboard. d. Sloppy work on the plumbing cover plates for one toilet--half smeared with paint and not attached to the wall properly. 3. Low quality of painting: a. Two slightly different colors of white used in one bathroom with sloppy caulking around the trim. b. Numerous blotches of paint on hardwood floors around the hallway baseboard--the kind that would be easily have been avoided by using masking tape. 4. Sloppy personnel and poor cleanliness: a. Folks were working while we were on vacation, and we came home late in the evening to find construction debris scattered in our front yard including razor blades, paint on our front walk (where stains can still be seen). b. For a year afterwards we found trash (food wrappers & empty bottles) behind the bushes or buried in the shrubs. c. I saw workers 'free handing' a circular saw for trim and baseboard--where one guy would hold the boards and another would use the circular saw. For sure not a safe or effective option--just glad nobody was hurt at our house by these substandard practices. Nobody could be bothered to bring a jobsite saw. I will add that we pointed out most of these issues to the company reps while they were happening-- most responses 'Just an honest mistake' and/or 'We will send somebody over to fix that'. At a certain point you stop trusting anyone from the company and just want these 'less-than-competent' folks out of the house. The customer shouldn't have to check all these details--especially about heating/plumbing/electrical work. Would not ever trust this company again to touch our house."

Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"I contacted Blues Bro back in late 2020 and then we went over some things. In the mean time I contacted other agencies as well trying to see where I get the most value for my money, it was here. I locked in the contract, to the person getting work done please go back and forth and negotiate. I hired them so that I would not have to deal with contractors for my adu.. I was happy on my results and how my project turned out to be. I gave my own rough blueprints to Blues Bros which helped a lot. Project mgn was Sussan and cordinators changed but Renne was very, very helpful. Payments were done in installs of each step the project goes through.. they have an app it tells you when the payment will be done. I bought most of my own stuff, even though they have inventory inhouse. I would recommend to future client, negotiate, read the contract and be upfront with budget and leave a little buffer. Have communication with both contractors and Blues Bros. Be on top of things right away from the first second. Get the number of the contractors and there boss and ask for weekly of daily status of work. If something is off have chat with both Blues and Contractors right away. Everyone has the same end goal, which is to finish the job so stay on top of it."

Addition to existing structure building services FAQs

Converting an existing space into a laundry room is more affordable than building a new addition. While new additions start at $5,000, renovating an existing space for laundry use can begin at $1,300. 

Your specific costs will depend on whether plumbing and electrical connections exist nearby, the quality of finishes you select, and whether any structural modifications are needed. Always budget extra for unexpected issues, particularly in older homes where hidden problems might surface during renovation.

The smallest practical size for a new laundry room addition is 35 square feet, which provides enough space for basic appliances and minimal storage. For renovations utilizing existing space, smaller footprints might work with space-saving solutions like stacked appliances. 

A standard-sized laundry room of 60 square feet offers more comfort and functionality, allowing for counter space and storage cabinets. The optimal size depends on your household needs and available space.

Yes, adding a laundry room requires several permits, particularly for new additions. You'll need building permits, plus specific permits for electrical work, plumbing installations, and possibly HVAC modifications. 

Requirements vary significantly by municipality, so consulting with your local building department before starting work is essential. Proceeding without proper permits can result in fines, mandatory removal of completed work, and complications when selling your property.

The timeline for completing a laundry room addition varies based on project complexity, contractor availability, and permit processing times. Factors that can extend the schedule include material delivery delays, weather conditions, and unforeseen structural issues discovered during construction. 

Renovating an existing space often requires less time than building a completely new addition. Working with an experienced contractor who can coordinate various tradespeople efficiently helps keep your project on schedule.
