"I would hire this company again absolutely! Their work was meticulous and exactly to the specs. It looks fabulous - even better than I anticipated. Derek was really helpful in selecting the the materials for the retaining wall and Brian did an outstanding job on the hardscape and pavers and problem solving some unexpected obstacles. This company provides exceptional value for their very reasonable pricing."

"My family & I were very pleased by the work we had done by Remodel Max. Shout out to Wayne, Dennis, Madison, Mitch, Brennen, & Nick. I was seeing signs in our 75 yr old house that indicated to me that the house might have been sinking, so we called out several contractors. I asked each contractor to bring a structural engineer along for the inspection, & Wayne was the only one who was willing to accommodate that. He was also the only one who could see the extent our floor joists & triple beam were deteriorating, was able to list the myriad of issues we had, & in each way it needed to be repaired. He was very thorough in his inspection. The repairs to the house required us to move out of our house while they rebuilt our entire first floor (+jacking up & re-leveling the house). Mitch & his crew handled it well, to put it lightly. Each of them went the extra mile & took time to make sure everything was done correctly. They were all extremely communicative, professional, & down-to-earth."

"I hired them to do landscaping and a driveway, my drive way is crumbling and have holes in it."

"A great group of professionals to work with."

"It went very well! I needed the drain line extended for about 10 feet after the job was completed. Barry Gladstone, the owner, came out on the next business day and completed the work at no extra charge. I waited for 2 years to write this review to test the drainage system over 2 complete weather cycles. After all of this time, everything is still working very well. I highly recommend Mr. Gladstone and the Outdoor Connection Inc for outside drainage system work."

"I would highly recommend Kenwood Kitchens and Bath. We had removed the existing shower stall, but soon realized that the project was beyond our do-it-yourself talents. Steve saved us lots of time and energy and after the selections were made at the Columbia show room, the project moved along well. Within one week, the plumber, tile man, and shower doors were installed. No messy clean up for me, and Perfection! Very happy with the results."

"I'm not sure how Stewart's Lawn Service is, but I can without a doubt NOT recommend them for landscaping. As soon as they deposited my down payment for our project, it became a huge disappointing nightmare! From lack of communication, to flat out lying to us and lying about us (in their internal records system - saying we had picked finishes or that they had talked to us, or that they couldn't get a hold of us), to poor workmanship - I would never in a million years recommend them to do any backyard project. We had them replace retaining walls, concrete patio and steps, and install stone steps in our back yard. I'm not sure the retaining walls were installed properly (I don't think the french drain drains anywhere), the stone steps had to be repositioned 4 times, the pavers that were installed had to be re-done in one section because they created a tripping hazard around our pool, and the concrete steps look like a 4 year old played with modeling clay (and that was after they came out 3 times to fix them). Dirt that was dug up was haphazardly thrown in the yard - and only when we complained did they attempt to make it look leveled out. I had requested an itemized project estimate - give me a general idea as to where they came up with their final estimate for each part of our project - and never received that. Also never received a project drawing/rendering prior to the start of our project. Had I known anything about landscaping projects - I would have been adamant about getting those prior to giving a deposit. Overall, very disappointed to have spent so much money and not love the outcome."

"Exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and deep integrity—JJ Palmer of Maryland Home Improvement Company delivers at the highest level. One morning not long ago, during breakfast, we heard a crash from upstairs. This time it wasn’t the cat getting into mischief—it was a large shelf in our closet giving way after thirty-one years of faithful service. To its credit, the old wire system had lasted decades. But what followed was not just a replacement—it was a complete transformation. We’re now standing in a custom-built white oak closet designed and executed by JJ Palmer, and it’s one of the finest examples of residential craftsmanship we’ve ever encountered. Every detail has been carried out with extraordinary care and quiet precision. The workmanship doesn’t shout—but it absolutely sings. You see it in every cut and corner. Trim lines are crisp and flush, hand-scribed to imperfect walls so precisely that they seem to have grown there rather than been added. Shelf edges are finished so carefully that all end grain is hidden, and the face grain flows seamlessly across components. Even the angled shoe shelves—normally utilitarian—are grain-matched and gracefully proportioned, elevating function to quiet elegance. The layout itself reveals a deep understanding of proportion and geometry: verticals and horizontals are aligned across bays with rhythmic consistency; trim widths are uniform; spacing feels intentional and calming. Every inch of the system—from the sloped shoe racks to the deeper bay for long dresses and luggage—feels purposeful, balanced, and beautifully made. Nothing is extraneous. It’s the kind of design that honors both material and use. JJ selected the materials with a discerning eye: knot-free white oak with straight, harmonious grain, installed in ways that bring out its natural beauty rather than compete with it. Even before stain was applied, the woodwork had presence and refinement. Once finished in a light weathered gray, the result was timeless, tactile, and visually integrated with the rest of the space—including our flooring and lighting.. What truly sets JJ apart, though, is not just his technical ability: it’s his ethos. We’ve worked with him before, on projects ranging from a bathroom remodel to a full basement build-out, and each time, he brings the same consistency of quality, professionalism, and quiet pride in his work. He listens well, offers thoughtful solutions, and always delivers what he promises—without shortcuts, excuses, or ego. In a world where true craftsmanship often feels like a relic, JJ Palmer is the real thing. We recommend Maryland Home Improvement Company without hesitation, and with deep appreciation."

"bad; a free hand was submitted with very little details, no specifics, extremely disappointed, was a "special deal" for a "landscaping plan"; our impression was something to scale, maybe in color, with details of our property with the proposed plants, walls, etc. portrayed; what was submitted was a simple sketch drawn in pen on a piece of notebook paper, my 5 year old kid could have drawn it better, total ripoff"
