"I came up with some initial drawings for Pete and his architect to give them an idea of what we wanted. After some back and forth with them, we were able to settle on a floor plan very close to our imagined ideas. Pete's crew headed up by Oscar was very professional. Even though the work on the house was a major undertaking, they were able to create a temporary plywood wall in one of the old bedrooms so that during most of the project we had enough bedrooms for our kids. This was huge. As far as subcontractors go, there were a few issues with flaky people, but Pete was able to deal with them/replace them as needed and we were able to get the entire inside portion of the project done by our deadline (before the baby was here). Honestly I think this was mainly due to the boom in the housing market so there is more work than contractors to go around. There was a little outside siding work to wrap up at the end, but we were alright with that since it could happen really anytime without affecting us inside. Pete was also happy to use our painter in the project. We'd used a painter previously that we were very happy with and wanted to use him again, so Pete was ok with this. He had his own guy give us an estimate (which actually was less than our guy was charging), but we ended up using our own. Pete was fine with this - which I really appreciated. We're very happy with the finished product. The new part of our house is in perfect character with the rest of our house both inside and outside. From the outside, you'd never know we have an addition except that the scale of the house is now much grander than before. From the inside, everything flows exactly as we'd hoped, the finishes all match the rest of the house and we have sooo much more space now. We now have enough space that we'll never need to move unless we want to. Also, the new covered deck area is absolutely awesome. We now have a 3-season room that we use all the time. It's fantastic. We made the deck a separate project (the main house addition work was finished in mid-winter, so we waited 'til the summer to do the deck). I got a few bids, for this work - none of the deck companies would put up walls under the overhang the way we wanted, and Pete was able to match them on price while also doing the screen walls. We got vinyl windows that I found online delivered from an east-cost provider and he was able to integrate those into this project, which was great to have it all done by a single contractor. It gives us another ~150 sq ft of living space that we can use for most of the year and I absolutely love it. Budget-wise, we stayed right on point. Pete gave us an itemized price list for all the work, including finishing allowances, to be done from the outset and we stayed within a few percentage points of this throughout the project. We even picked up some finishing materials on our own to save a bit (we got some tile from Costco when they had a sale, other tile from Home Depot that was on closeout - saved several hundred bucks that way). Finally - and this is absolutely key - Pete 100% stands behind his work. We had a few minor issues (totally expected on a project this size) and he always had them resolved quickly. Example, very recently, we had a problem with the backing starting to show through on the mirror in the new bathroom. I called him, he came out and looked at it within a few days. There was no argument needed, Pete just said 'yup, we'll take care of that'. So he ordered the replacement glass, and we now have a replacement mirror installed. This all happened within a couple weeks, with absolutely no headache on our part. This is something that is extremely hard to find. Because of the great service - we plan on hiring Pete again to do a Master Bathroom remodel in a couple years. I'd suggest you do the same!"

"Johnson & Sons remodeled our 1990's kitchen and replaced all of the flooring on the first floor and staircase of our home during the months of May - August of 2022. We met with multiple local companies to bid the work and Vic's bid came in under or comparable to the other estimates we received. We chose their company based on referral, price, and comfort level with Vic. Vic is fantastic to work with. He is knowledgeable, responsive, and creates a culture of partnership on his team's projects. This was our first time tackling a renovation project of this scope and using a general contractor. Vic and his team made the experience comfortable and as enjoyable as it could be considering we had no kitchen! :) There was a long wait time to get the project started due to Covid-caused supply issues on Johnson and Sons other jobs (we originally met with Vic in June of 2021 and the work did not start until May of 2022). It was hard to be patient, but it actually worked in our favor. Being able to choose and purchase materials in advance meant no supply issues or back orders once our project got started. Every sub that Vic and Jon used on our job or vendor he referred us to was professional, kind, and did a great job. If we ever had a question about quality or how the job was progressing (and we had a lot -- remember we'd never done this before!) Vic was patient, flexible, and worked with us until we were satisfied. As our job progressed, issues within our home were uncovered that were not in the scope of work included in our kitchen remodel. A water leak was found in an adjacent wall when kitchen drywall was removed, and holes in our roof were discovered when the electrician was in the attic running conduit. Even though these setbacks were not part of our kitchen remodel, Vic's guys jumped in and found solutions or recommended sub contractors to solve problems. There were multiple times that we had questions and within minutes either Vic or Jon were on site to address a concern or answer a question-- even after our job was complete. We could not be more excited about our new kitchen or pleased with our choice of contractor. We are already planning to hire Johnson and Sons again to renovate our primary bathroom!"

"Excellently, we initially explained to Vic what it was we wanted to do and he was very receptive to what we wanted Without trying to “take over” and do what was easiest for him. Vic was also very reassuring that what we wanted to do was doable. My wife and I were amazed at what Vic was able to do with rerouting some heating vents and plumbing to hook up our new appliances. Vic was also very knowledgeable in dealing with electrical contractors saving us from being overcharged and avoiding unnecessary work and products. We are very very happy that we were able to find Vic to remodel our kitchen and are very glad that he agreed to do it. We are very happy with his work and very proud to show our friends and family our new kitchen."

"Ryan and his team completed an extensive basement remodel in our 1924 home. The basement work included new framing/drywall, windows (including a large egress window), plumbing and electrical to support a main living space, new bathroom and new laundry room. We also updated our old forced-air HVAC and water heather to new mini-splits and a tankless water heater. This is our second major project with Ryan and we plan to work with him for many years to come. He's incredibly responsive and detail oriented and always plans phases of our projects to support our future plans. Ryan's expertise and quality of work is well worth the cost."

"Alexander and Antolly were very professional and helpful. I decided to go with another GC company because they offered a better schedule. However, I would have been just as comfortable handing N&R the project. 
Through the course of the planning, they provided multiple bids, walked through many nuances of choices and options. All the while they were more punctual and far more detailed than many other contractors I was getting bids from. 
Anatolly walked me through a remodel he was working on and the craftsmanship is fantastic. I think the quality of finished work is probably the best thing about N&R. Anatolly is a hands on builder and craftsman and takes pride in his work. He is also extremely forthcoming on costs and options to keep a project in budget.

"An appropriate replacement stair was provided and carefully installed. The politeness and courtesy of the skilled installers was simply outstanding. The custom work in fitting the stairs to the existing attic opening was a marvel of workmanship. The cleanup of the area was extremely thorough. We would hire GMG again without hesitation. We highly recommend!"

"I recently hired Puget Sound BNR for a major renovation project, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, the entire team was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They listened carefully to my ideas, offered helpful suggestions, and kept me informed throughout every stage of the project. The quality of craftsmanship was outstanding, and the attention to detail exceeded my expectations. The crew arrived on time, maintained a clean work area, and treated my home with respect. The project was completed on schedule, and the finished results completely transformed my space. I highly recommend Puget Sound BNR to anyone looking for reliable and skilled renovation professionals."

FAQs for major home repair (general contractor) projects in Seattle, WA

In many cases, it’s much less expensive to convert a bus than to buy an RV, especially if you’re considering a newer RV model, which can exceed $100,000.

Another huge benefit of school bus conversion is that you are in control of the renovation project. You get to pick your camper's new layout and all the appliances and furniture.

While school buses can easily cost $300,000 when they're new, you can often find used buses for just a few thousand dollars. These vehicles experience extreme depreciation due to government regulations; they can only be used for so long before they must be replaced. Due to those same regulations, other government agencies cannot purchase them for their own uses, so the consumer market is the only place they can go.

The length of time it takes to convert a bus depends on the scope of the project (and size of the bus), how much work is DIY vs. done by a professional contractor, and how much work you’re doing up front.

In general, expect at least a couple of months for a conversion, but larger conversions could take six months to a year. Remember: You can tackle projects as you go: Get the basic work done so that it’s livable, and then continue to enhance your living space over time.
