"It seemed like it took forever but it was worth every penny. They are fabulous people to work with. Our new kitchen is beautiful. We knocked out a wall that divided a family room & kitchen and made it one BIG room. Hickory cabinets,granite counter's large 9' ft. granite island, tile floor. Stainless steel appliance's. It's just a Great looking Kitchen. I should of put it in Star paper before/after. Unbelievable!!!!!!!!"

"Preferred Custom Remodeling was great and I would recommend them to anyone. They had the most complete quote of four contractors I requested. They truly listened to what we wanted to accomplish with the space and they did a fantastic job. There price was extremely competitive and their team was professional and hard working every day. If you're looking for any home renovation whether basic or more complex, you cannot go wrong if you chose to work with Preferred Custom Remodeling and I'm certain you will be happy with their work."

"Magnificent!!! Freddy and Paul were respondent to all of my concerns immediately to design changes and alterations. The clean-up was immaculate. All remodeling was completed timely and on schedule. My kitchen is absolutely beautiful, and I’m picky. They throughly remodeled my kitchen, master bath and basement They made a four seasons sunroom/office out of my back porch. The best thing I can say about Construction Services of Indpls and John Whitmoyer , the owner, is John provided one stop shopping for my entire house including every detail. From the electrical, plumbing, heating/air, granite countertops to flooring and every other detail. I throughly enjoyed the entire process."

"Should have been a six week job and it turned into a 12 week job.  Very stressful for my wife and I.  I do not feel that Tom listened to my concerns about the work and I don't feel he tried to address those concerns.  Problems with the layout drawing from the cabinet supplier and how his folks installed the cabinets.  I feel Tom would not take responsibility for being the cabinet installer and his being responsible for working with the cabinet designer to make sure the layout and install went as it was planned to go.  Problems caused the coutner tops to have to be modified due to the base cabinet install.  Tom blamed the kitchen designer, but I feel it is Tom's job to work out any of these problem as part of the contractor and install on the job prior to having the counter tops installed.


UPDATE: Below is a copy of an e-mail I sent to Tom Phelps on Saturday 9-13-2014 and his response on Sunday 9-14-2014.  This was 5-6 weeks before the beginning of the work.  The layout drawings and kitchen views were attached to this e-mail.  Included in the e-mail was the brand of cabinets we finalized the project on, the name of the designer, his phone number and his e-mail.  Tom acknowledges receipt of this e-mail by saying he will contact him with any questions.  Tom had this information 5-6 weeks prior to beginning the work and in fact I sent this information to him several times during this 5-6 week period.   Tom's crew installed both runs of the base cabinets 3/4" short of what the layout drawings showed they should be.  They installed the filler pieces in the wrong orientation causing the base cabinet runs to be short.  He would not take responsibility for this and even to this day will not.   I don't know if he is purposefully being misleading or can't remember, but either way it is his responsibility as the contractor to manage the job and he did not do a very good job on my project.  He even states this was a 3 week job and the counter tops took 3 weeks, this is 6 weeks.  The work took 12 weeks to complete. We started well in advance and should have been done by Christmas, but Tom did not finish until almost New Years so our house was a mess during the holidays which we planned properly to have the work done except for the poor job of managing the project.

Email: [member name], I will call the cabinet guy on Monday. The panel should always come a little larger than the exact size of the cabinetry. The crown molding should be fine at two and five eighths. Thanks for the information, now I can see what you are talking about. Have a good weekend, Tom

Tom:   Here are the view layouts of the kitchen.  If you open [member name] you will see the back of the peninsula.  The two doors tot he left actually open and are a cabinet.  The two tot he right are a single width panel with the doors applied.  My cabinet guys question is since this covers the back of a 18 & 15" cabinets do you want this exactly 33" wide or would you like it a little wide, say 1/4" so you have extra to trim if you need it.   I am purchasing cabinets from Direct plus.  Medallion brand.  My contact there is Jim.  317-337-1400 they are closed on Sun & Mon.    Would you consider calling him to get more clarity on why this might be necessary?  He seems to think it might be when mating the panel to the actual cabinet next to it.  Not sure why?   Thanks.   [member name]

"Guillermo and Karina gave me a good price on their estimate to do all kinds of remodeling work for my 3 bedroom condo. Their team worked quickly and carefully. We had good communication as the job progressed. I’m very happy with the drywalling, painting, vinyl plank flooring and carpeting they installed. Also the did a great job re-coating the two bath tubs. I would recommend them to anyone."

"There was someone working on the project every day. Different professionals spoke English for each job. All questions were answered, and we were updated on every issue that came up as walls were torn down or pipes exposed. I knew the price was higher than that of other contractors', but I had also seen Centennial's work firsthand from a friend who was remodeling her entire house. They are professional and reliable. We had never done a remodel, and Brent had to help us pick items and places to go to stay within our budget. We will use them again."

"An amazing team! Daniel is extremely knowledgeable and excellent at communicating throughout the remodeling process. The crew was well-organized and kept our home clean at all times. The craftsmanship exceeded our expectations, and it was a pleasure working with Barbon Enterprise. I highly recommend them for your next project"

"I hired Rabin Remodeling and Restoration to handle general contracting work for my investment property at 9829 Chambre Dr, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. Their team was professional, efficient, and very conscious about pricing throughout the entire project. They were also friendly and easy to work with, which made the process smooth from start to finish. Most importantly, the quality of their work truly added tangible value to my home. I highly recommend Rabin Remodeling and Restoration to anyone looking for reliable, skilled, and trustworthy contractors for their property improvement projects."

"Apex was the most responsive bid that fit the budget for the project. Work went a little over on timeframe, but this was due in part to unforeseen issues arising from remodeling a project which took an old plaster/lath room down to the studs. Tile took a while, but it was also meticulously done with old walls which weren’t square. The end result was fantastic. It was worth the extra time for the quality work. Overall good experience with consistent communication and no “surprises.” They worked well with me to design the remodel, handle issues and provided quality work. Highly recommended."

"I would recommend R Wright Construction to anyone who is needing any kind of work done. George, the owner, was very hands on with the whole production. His employees were wonderful. Any people he had come in to do wiring, insulation, construction, roofing, etc. were all extremely nice and knew their jobs and did them on time. I had never had anything like this done before, and he made it easy to work with him and I will definitely be calling him back for other projects that I need coming up."
