Get matched with top second story addition builders in Boulder, CO

"They took everything and poured new concrete, everything was done in the amount of time they estimated. Eduardo and his team are great, I highly recommend them!"

"I needed to replace a border to my vegetable garden that had probably been in place for 20 years. The border was made of redwood planks and hollow in the inside. The in-ground portion was rotting and, on occasion, provided a home for rodents. After searching for contractors on the web and getting a couple of estimates, I settled on Design Exteriors of Denver, which had consistently excellent reviews. Cedric (Sonny) Shoebridge, owner and lead designer of the firm, visited, made careful measurements, and provided a detailed proposal for a new border consisting of 4”x6”x8’ rough cedar planks, capped by wider 2”x8”x8’ redwood boards for seating. The proposal was clear about possible variations in cost. The wood was to be coated with a top-of-the-line oil-based stain. Cedric suggested that I buy a plank and partially stain it with the color of my choice, just to make sure I liked it. Later, when he and his foreman were purchasing the rest of the planks, he asked for photos of my plank so that he could match the wood color as closely as possible. Enrique, the foreman, and his brother Jose did most of the work. They removed the old redwood border, including several concrete footings, laser-levelled the trench, then poured 3” of gravel footing into the trench, installed four courses of cedar planks in an overlapping pattern, locking them together with rebar and capping them with the redwood boards. The result is a very sturdy and handsome border with an amber stain that will probably outlast me. Enrique and Jose did a final pass through the garden, and removed wood and concrete debris. Construction had occurred in soil wet from melting snow, and our sidewalks and driveway were covered with muddy footprints. Enrique power-washed the concrete before departing. Kristi Tyler, Client Services Manager, was very pleasant and helpful from start to finish. The final bill was less than the original estimate, and I received a generous credit for the plank I had bought. I was extremely pleased with all my interactions with Design Exterior employees and more than satisfied with the result. It was money very well spent. I highly recommend Design Exteriors for outdoor landscaping and architectural renovations."

"The work was completed in a timely manor and overall looks good, during the project Gabe tried to change the scope many times, but ultimately did stick to our quote. Once work was completed he requested an additional $600 “because we did such a good job” finally within 90 days of having our fence and gate installed the gate began to sag. I contacted Gabe to give him an opportunity to make it right but he did not respond in any capacity. Moral of the story: make sure the work is 1000% because once peppers leaves they won’t return to fix any errors."

"It went great. They installed recessed lighting in my kitchen and it looks great. They cleaned up their mess and were friendly and professional. And, they charged a reasonable price."

"I hired Paramount back in 2020 for work on the first floor and appreciated their work so much that I brought them back for the basement (fix/ update after mold repair) and second floor (bathroom and stairs update, new carpet). Like the first time, I really appreciated Ryan's suggestions on style and options, and the various contractors were professional and very kind about working around me and the cats. Ryan was ultimately more critical than me about details and appreciate that desire to do things right and as clean as possible. Would use again!... although that would require a new house at this point. 😁"

"Steve and his team did a great job. He worked with our home insurance and got the water damaged floor replaced quickly and it looks great!"

"Jim did an amazing job finishing our basement! Took about a month which was perfect timing being just him and a helper. He kept us in the loop on what was going on and matched the rest of our house perfectly."

"This is a honest review that has good and bad points. Out of 5 contractors interviewed, Nick was the only one willing to listen to our vision which was not the typical current remodel. We needed to take out a wall to open our kitchen and rearrange the layout and add gas lines. We needed to take one giant out of date bathroom and make it into two. Nick had a reasonable quote for all the work and his time frame set perfectly with our needs. Unfortunately we did not do our research to confirm the city rules for remodels nor did Nick include permits in his bid. Our horrible neighbor called the city to report us and the city shut our work down for 3 weeks. We had to cut items out of the scope of work and budget to now cover the permits. Understandably this delay would cause further issues in the time frame and Nick's team would need to begin working on other projects. Many times Nick would say or text that he would be at our site to do certain work at particular times and he would not show up at those times or complete the work as discussed. We did some of the work ourselves such as paint. Grout for the tile and baseboards was not cleaned up properly off the painted walls which meant we had to repaint much of the walls again. We asked for this grout to be addressed during final walk through but were told that painting was on us to do again. We felt that if the grout had been cleaned when it was wet and paint had been on their scope of work that perhaps it would have been dealt with properly from the start. When it came to installing the new appliances, our brand new front door was damaged as they brought in the fridge. Nick accepted responsibility and fixed it as best as he could. He also lost our garage door opener which he paid us for. Now for the good points, tile work looks great. The shower is impressive and we appreciate the time and details spent on creating it. His cabinet supplier is good and well priced. The plumbing and electrical sub contractors were excellent and we have recommended them to neighbors for smaller issues. Nick and Russell work **** ** the job at hand. Our situation just didn't go as planned and caused frustration on both sides which was amplified when there was poor communication. Perhaps if our situation didn't have so many bumps or was on a smaller scale then I would be able to give A rating. But we want to be honest and say that we failed on our research and understanding but Nick as the professional should have been ahead of possible situation to help us prevent the big delay and costs."

"Great, fixed the problem in no time. Great service."

"I can tell Jerry takes real pride in his work. Jerry did a phenomenal job incredibly professional, friendly, and transparent throughout the whole process. Got a fair quote and completed right on time. No surprises—just top-tier craftsmanship. If you want quality work from someone who cares, I can’t recommend Superior Remodeling enough . I wouldn’t trust anyone else for my future remodeling needs!"
