"The crew was very professional. Started the job and they made progress every day exactly to my request. They showed me different options and ideas which I appreciated. The job was done quickly, within schedule, and at a reasonable cost, and with great quality. I would hire them again for further work on my home and I will recommend them to anyone because of their hard work!"

"This was not the experience we had ever imagined we would have with Matrix we could have worked with other companies and spent far less money but we thought we were getting a premium product and at a premium price! We had contracted Matrix in February to finish our basement, our salesman did a very good job taking the time to lay everything out give us our options and meet our vision the follow-up appointment to finalize went well and the gentleman really had a good knowledge of everything that needed to be done. The biggest problem we had was with the project manager and some of the trades that were brought in. The framers and finish carpenters did a wonderful job however the failures were many and project management was substandard for spending over six figures on a project. The damage that was caused to the finished portion of our house, walls, door jams garage door frame and other building errors that were made on electrical and plumbing were not addressed or handled appropriately"

"They are excellent!"

"Saw this guy driving on the highway with some serious road rage. Purposely swerving into another car and blocking them when they tried to pass. I wouldn't hire someone who loses their head that easily"

"Karl and his crew are top notch. Great communication, attention to detail, and very fair pricing. Remodeling can be very overwhelming and Karl makes the process a piece of cake. Lastly, Karl recommends upgrades and finishing touches that are always the more affordable option - never any surprises with expensive add-ons or the final bill!"

"They were very professional and completed the project perfectly and on time. In addition they replaced the thresholds between tiled areas and wood areas. The existing ones were too difficult for a transfer chair to navigate. The carpenter was very meticulous and came back three times. Our new thresholds function beautifully and match out wood floors perfectly . I highly recommend this company"

"I contacted Angie s List was giving several referrals starting receiving phone calls this contractor was one of them, I told him I had a , flooded basement and needed help to remove standing water that was sitting since Saturday, informed him I had at least six inches and is this something he could assist me with, he said yes give him a couple of hours and I said ok. He called back to confirm how many inches of water there was again and said he was about 40 minutes away. Once he arrived he looked and went back to his car got his boots and a small machine and a thick water hose and asked if he could drain the water in our front yard not the sewer and went into the basement and got started, then he went back to his car and would come back periodically to see if the water was going down at some point he came back and said he was done and I looked and said all the water is not gone and was that it! He told me he did the best he could and I informed him I wasn t happy we went back and forth and I paid him and knew I was going to file a complaint because he did not complete the work that he said he would do and if the job was too difficult and he couldn t handle it he should have said something before he got started! I told him when he first called I had a flooded basement, and wanted the water removed!ALL OF THE WATER 💧! Before paying him I made it perfectly clear that I was unhappy because he left a lot of water 💧 still down there and his response was I did the best I could! That s why I m filing this complaint and I m seeking a refund and the money I spent to have someone else come out and do the job right!"

"M&E Construction (general contractor and owner Marc) was horrible in every way from the very start. EVERY step of the project was screwed up by either Marc or his subcontractors. There is not enough room in this text box to describe the multitude of problems I had. The cost was exorbitant for what they did, the errors started from the very beginning with the ARCHITECT, deadlines were not met and extended way past the time I was told it would be done, to name just a few of the problems. I could go on and on and on. My next grievance is with Angi's List. Don't you vet these people? This guy is a con artist and a scammer/grifter. I would appreciate a call from someone in management (not just a customer service rep) to discuss the nightmare this project has been. The only reason I gave a 1-star rating is because I couldn't leave no stars or actually negative stars. I am HUGELY disappointed in Angi's List for doing business with this man. "

"The team at Quintessential Renovations Inc. did a fantastic job replacing the cabinets in my kitchen! I could not be happier! Highly recommend them! They had the best customer service, all of their workers were friendly, clean, on time, and highly respectful. They did all of the correct prep work on the job and they really respected my home and belongings. They used great drop cloths and covered everything! They did almost all of the work in just two days and the entire project was completed in less than a week. Their estimate was right on the money and they worked so hard to keep things right where I needed them to be financially. They came up with creative solutions to my storage needs, designed some cool new corner cabinets, and gave me the greatest deal on the top of the line countertops that I just rave about! Everyone who came into my house was well spoken, super polite, and efficient and knowledgeable. Huge shout out to Nick Lyons and his whole team at Lyons Cabinetry Solutions and to Alex Jensen, the wonderful General Contractor who helped modernize my kitchen. Everything about dealing with them was a pleasure. Their communication was top notch."
