We have a historic (Mills Act) craftsman home that's over 100 years old. Jon is not always…read morepunctual, but it's because he *cares* about his projects, and he takes the time to really talk to you; it's worth the wait. Unlike Lars and other companies (who have project managers who drop in maybe once a day for about 15 minutes) he had one of his guys on-site during the entire duration of our project, not only working, but also supervising all the subcontractors, with the authority to fire any slackers. Our project included remodel of the kitchen, master bath, and guest bath; conversion of an office into a powder room; adding a foundation underneath a two-story addition; conversion of a bedroom into a walk-in closet and laundry room; replacing the furnace; adding central A/C; re-building of a chimney; widening and paving a driveway; building a retaining wall along the driveway to hold back the front yard; adding electrical to the garage; replacing historic windows; and that's just the major stuff. Jon takes pride in his projects and the work of his crew, and in a large job like ours that can rack up a tab pretty quickly, he offers options and gives his honest opinions. He stands by his crew's work and takes responsibility if things go awry. We have recommended him to others, and we will use him again.

Very unprofessional company! I waited 2 weeks for my…read moreappointment with the owner Jon, took off work and drove out to the job site to meet with him. The Project Manager showed up and stated Jon couldn't make it. When asked, he stated he did review the plans that I was asked to email back when I scheduled. I figured he was the project manager and he was familiar with the plans so lets get it done. After walking the job site and answering all my questions with positive answers and him further stating that "this type of job is definitely in our wheelhouse" I was excited to have a company that could finally get this project across the finish line. I confirmed he had my email address and so I waited for the quote. 1 week, 2 weeks...nothing! So I call Amanda to let her know that it's been 2 weeks and I don't have the quote yet. She tells me, oh he had Covid and that's why you haven't gotten the quote yet. She said she was going to get in touch with the owner Jon. An hour later this is the email she send to me: Hello, Thank You for the opportunity to walk through your project site. At this time we will not be able to provide the type of services you are looking for or need for your project. We thank you for your consideration and wish you the best going forward. I was shocked at their response that they were "unable to provide construction services" as they were in possession of the plans for weeks and I was insulted at the "we have no need for your project" statement! I left a voicemail for the owner asking politely for a return call to explain a little better, honestly still hoping this was some misunderstanding. I also replied to Amanda's email asking for the owner to call me. That was 9 days ago on the 21st of Jan. They have ignored all of my requests to date. I have dodged a bullet not using this company, the last thing you want is to hire a contractor that cannot communicate.

We hired E2 to remodel our kitchen in our condo. We met with Frank at the beginning so that he…read morecould get a sense of our needs - we wanted to basically gut the kitchen and install new cabinets, flooring and counters as well as lighting and 2 new appliances (stove and microwave). We had met with two other contracting companies and we were given a similar quote as E2 but to be honest, meeting with Frank gave me a totally different level of confidence than meeting with the others. He listened carefully, was very honest with us about expectations and I immediately felt comfortable. This is the first remodel me and my husband have ever done so we were nervous! Frank and Alex made very quick progress with our kitchen - it's a more complicated inspection process with condominiums so inspections were the main hold-up for us. Along the way they made sure we were getting the results we wanted and were quick to make changes if we had any requests. Alex was great to work with, he is very detail oriented and does great work. He and his team always left our house and the common areas in the condo building extremely clean (cleaner than it was originally, honestly). I always felt great greeting them in the morning, knowing that the place was safe in their hands. We ended up having a weird water heater valve issue from a previous installation that had to get fixed before our final kitchen inspection and Frank came over to offer his expertise on what he thought the fix could be. I was very appreciative because I wanted to be able to talk to the plumbing company with confidence about viable solutions. Frank and his team really went above and beyond in making sure we were comfortable and happy with the work. Frank asked us to leave a review and I am happy to do it because I was very pleased with their work and would truly recommend them to any one who is looking to have remodel work done.

When I moved into my condo, I wanted the hardwood floors to be renewed (not refinished since they…read morewere installed 1-2 years ago). The scope of work was to buff down the current top coat and then reapply the protective top coat/gloss. The square footage was about 500-600 sqft (hallway + living/dining room area). I called Frank and he was very responsive. I made an appointment for a walkthrough and he gave me estimates for everything I wanted done (although I went with another person for painting/other jobs). He was nice and explained everything very well. So his people came to do the floors (only took about 1.5-2 hours to complete) and he stopped by at the end to check on the work. Since the topcoat was oil based, I wouldn't be able to walk on the floor for 24 hours (which was fine because the entire condo was empty anyway). The next day, I went to check on the finished floor. I was very disappointed! There were dust particles all over so the floor felt bumpy/dirty (there were some places where it was ok but some places where it was very very dusty looking). Frank called later that night to see what I thought of it and I told him that I was dissatisfied. He went to take a look and agreed that it was unacceptable. So, he scheduled his people to go to my condo again to redo the job. I showed them where the worst places were and they said they would vacuum and wipe down the areas after buffing (I guess they didn't wipe it down afterwards?). They were in and out of the condo in 1.5 hours. The next day, I went to check on the final result. Disappointed again! There was definitely less dust particles but it looked like they buffed down some parts and recoated while other parts it just looked like they recoated on top of the existing top coat. As a result, you can see the streak/brush marks from the top coat (almost like when you paint your nails ... you put on the first coat of nailpolish but you don't wait long enough when you paint the second coat, and then you get that horrible clumpy streak). Also, you can clearly see that on the edges of the floor, there is no clear coat at all! I was very frustrated at this point because I had already scheduled other work to be done, so I didn't have time for him/crew to come in again to redo the floors. Frank called again the next day and I told him that I wasn't satisfied but I didn't have the time to have him redo it again. And with that, he charged me the price we agreed upon and my floors look actually worse than they did before they did any work. 2 stars: 1 star - Great communication ... will call you after the work is done and responds to emails quickly. 1 star - He did redo the work when I was dissatisfied ... but if you're redoing the work, it better be done correctly! But that's about it ... the work is the most important and they just didn't do a good job. I would not recommend E2 Remodel and would not use them again in the future.

I researched 6 different companies and InnovaCreate stood out from the very beginning. Arnie immediately put me at ease. From the moment he walked in my door for the original quote, he was relaxed, knowledgeable and confident. He gave me a lot of ideas that would keep me with-in my budget and still help me to obtain my dream kitchen. He stayed with-in the time frame and the total cost that he quoted at the start of the job. He and his apprentice, Steve, were in my home daily for weeks and they were an absolute pleasure to be around. They both communicated well, showed up on time, worked efficiently and cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day. My husband and I were actually a little sad when the remodel was done, because we missed having Arnie and Steve around all the time. But our gorgeous new kitchen helped us get over it pretty quickly! I can't believe how much I love my new kitchen. I was originally just hoping to update it and make it more user friendly. I was not expecting it to be this beautiful, given the budget I had to work with. THANK YOU ARNIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I seriously can't thank you enough. I would absolutely use InnovaCreate again and am already saving up to have all the floors in my home re-done by them, .
