Once the work started, David and his team found additional leaks that could have caused much bigger problems if they hadn't been repaired. They fixed everything, removed and rebuilt our rooftop wood deck to access the leak, and completed the entire project in just two days. The crew was professional, polite, and left everything clean. David was great to work with; he communicated throughout the project and kept us informed every step of the way. The project ended up being a lot more extensive than originally expected, but the quality of the work was excellent. I'd definitely recommend Nicolas Roofing & Tuckpointing if you're looking for a reliable roofing company.

The entire project took 2 days from start to finish. David sent pictures all day on both days which was amazing to see the progress. I am attaching some before and after pictures. This was just finished 2 days ago and we are waiting for furniture to be delivered as well as plants to be planted. I am also attaching an inspiration photo of what my vision is for once I complete the furniture, plants and lighting. My vision was cozy and tranquil and so far it's on it's way. I would work with David on any other projects in the future. We had 4 companies come out, David was by far the one that explained the most, seemed to care the most and also gave a very competitive price that couldn't b beat.

It has been a year since Stefan remodeled our kitchen and built a closet in our foyer. Both…read moreprojects were done at the same time, and he did a great job on both projects. Both projects have been without any issue. The kitchen project consisted of a complete remodel, replacing the hardwood floor and subfloor, installing all new cabinets, building and installing an island with range hood, running water and gas lines as needed, installing backsplash tile, installing granite countertops, installing recessed lighting, and painting. The work was great and he finished within the timeframe he gave us. He also matched the stain for the hardwood floor with the existing hardwood floor. The closet project consisted of framing out a new closet, installing closet doors, framing out and installing cabinets above the closet for additional storage space, and painting. We have an older home, which means that remodeling projects can be complicated by unexpected or unanticipated conditions. But Stefan and his crews did a great job. We were pleased with the results when he finished, and we are still pleased a year later. Great quality, great value, and overall great service.

I hired Alpha House Construction to remodel the house I purchased. Unfortunately, my experience was…read morevery frustrating from start to finish. Stefan was very difficult to work with throughout the project. A large part of the battle was constantly having to argue with him because he acted like it was his home and his decisions mattered more than mine. Mid project my $800 Kohler shower head went missing. Instead of taking responsibility or helping resolve the issue, Stefan tried to blame me for it, and I ended up having to repurchase it myself. Later, when I started having issues with the plumbing work, Stefan sent his plumber out to look at it instead of coming himself. As the general contractor on the job, I expected him to personally come see the issue and take ownership of what was happening rather than passing it off to someone else. Over time, I started experiencing repeated backups, bubbling toilets, and drainage issues. After continuing to deal with these problems, I learned that the a pipe that was installed by Alpha House was back pitched and holding water and waste instead of draining properly. When the plumbing was inspected, standing water and sludge were visible in the line, but I was still told everything was normal and there was no issue by Alpha House. I trusted that advice at the time, but the problems continued. Since then, I have had three different plumbers inspect the line, and all three told me the installation was incorrect. I was told the pipe was improperly pitched and that at least one of the fittings was not installed correctly. I am now stuck paying THOUSANDS to have the piping redone because the original installation was not done properly in the first place. What is most frustrating is not just that the work appears to have been done incorrectly, but that the issue was clearly visible on camera and Stefan still dismissed my issues instead of being addressed. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Alpha House Construction.

Kitchen remodels can be incredibly stressful, but Mirek and his team made the entire process smooth and worry-free. From start to finish, Mirek was incredibly professional, highly responsive and very knowledgeable. He took the time to understand our space, offering excellent suggestions that improved our cabinet layout and functionality. His crew, Christian and Lucas, were true craftsmen. They were professional, efficient, tidy, detail-oriented, and clearly took great pride in their work. They understood the unique challenges of a 120+ year old house, solving every issue. We are happy to have chosen Mirek and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-notch general contractor.

His crew were reliable, on-time, and respectful of our property throughout the remodel and we appreciated their attention to detail. They solicited our input on decorative details and were quick to fix things we didn't like, e.g., the location of kitchen cabinet pulls. We felt they treated our home as they would their own. The project even wrapped up a few days early. We would absolutely recommend Homewise Remodelers and choose them for future projects.

We are overall happy with the way the shower turned out, but there were a few things that left me…read morefeeling less than satisfactory. After reviewing the scope of the project, it was estimated that it would take a week and a half to complete. Not only did it take over a month to eventually complete, the days that the team would work were unpredictable. On several occasions, as the team would leave for the day, they would tell us they will be back tomorrow, and then not show up. Or, they wouldn't be able to tell us when they would come next, and would surprise us a few days later. They ended up needing to complete this project after I had delivered my baby (original timeline would've been completed weeks prior to my due date). Additionally, we noticed there were a few design decisions that were made without consulting us, like the drywall of the shower/re-installation of the water gauge (it's now not flush with the wall and very loose) and the selection of tile at the base of the shower that doesn't match the floor. He had offered to come fix the water gauge, but after coming to look at the issue, he has not gotten back to us in 5 weeks. I had high hopes for this project, and while it still looks nice, the lack of communication made it really difficult to want to recommend Peter or use his team again for future projects.

We're genuinely surprised to see any mixed reviews for Revive. We can't recommend them enough! It's…read morerare to find a contractor you trust completely, along with all their subcontracting teams, but Ohad and his crew have earned that trust across multiple projects in our home. Ohad is an honest thought partner when it comes to design and overall project management. He'll tell you straight where it's worth spending and where you can save. And his team is hardworking, honest, and reliably on schedule (and mostly on budget!). We have also had the opposite experience of some of the warranty comments below. The team has ALWAYS come back promptly to finish final details/punch list items until we're happy with the project. And, they stand by the quality of their work. For example, after refinishing our floors, we noticed some marks that weren't quite right. Ohad agreed immediately that it wasn't up to his standard of work and sent a team to fix it, no pushback at all. The team tried a "quick" fix at first which was better, but not perfect. Without us even asking to fix it again, Ohad said it still wasn't to his standard and the solution was to rework the entire area. Due to some personal scheduling conflicts that made it hard to have workers in the house, we asked to delay for a few months past project completion and he was completely understanding... told us it would happen on our timeline and just asked for some notice before we'll be ready so he can schedule the team. That kind of accountability, owning a mistake and working around our needs to fix it, is exactly why we trust him so much. Plus the incredibly high standard of work on everything that went perfectly smoothly! We won't risk anyone else working on our home at this point.

Revive's warranty was worthless, and the project management was poor…read more THE PROJECT MANAGEMENTS PROBLEMS: I hired Revive to replace granite kitchen countertops with quartzite at a cost of about $9,000. The new countertops were installed in October 2025. The design and fabrication of the countertops was very good. The installation crew seemed to be extremely competent - but see the warranty issue, below. The demolition and stone installation took place on a Monday. The plumber disconnect everything, but was not scheduled to return. He was able to come back Tuesday evening. We were reusing the previous faucet, since it was fairly new, but he discovered that either he or the crew had lost a critical part. He went to Home Depot to get another, but they don't sell it separately. I had to go to Home Depot and buy a new faucet. After he left, I discovered a huge leak inside the cabinet. He returned the next morning and fixed it. The stone crew were professional seemed competent (but see the warranty issue, below). But they forgot to bring stone sealant with them and didn't return with sealant until Wednesday, causing unnecessary delay as I could not use the countertops at all until they were sealed. I emailed Ohad of Revive about these and other problems, just so that he would know, not asking for anything. He acknowledged that the work was not up to their usual standards. He said he was mailing me a gift, but nothing ever arrived. I assumed he sent it and it got lost, but I appreciated the gesture which I took to be an apology. WARRANTY ISSUES: By April 2026, about six months after installation, my stone had became discolored in two places. I provided photos to Ohad and told him my theory that the the crew missed these spots when they sealed the countertops. The manufacturer of the sealant used on my stone states in its information sheet that the seal will last "years" against oil, water, and grease. I had gotten discoloration after just a few months. The stone crew told me during installation that their work was guaranteed and that anytime I needed them to come back, they would do so. But when I sent the photos to Ohad, he responded with this: "Natural stone requires periodic maintenance, including sealing and care over time. This type of ongoing upkeep is the responsibility of the homeowner and is not part of our warranty or scope of work. It would not be reasonable for us to provide continued maintenance of the surface after installation." None of this applies after only six months! I asked Ohad what maintenance he thought I should have done, but he did not respond. I had a stone care company look at the discolorations. The technician said that he would have used a different sealant on my stone. He gave me a product that pulls moisture out of stone, which mostly removed the discolorations, and I sealed the areas. The discoloration that I was able to remove has not come back. CONCLUSION: By using Revive, I got poor product management and a warranty that was just a sales pitch not backed up by any integrity. If I had gone directly to the stone fabricator, I would have at least had a warranty.
