I contacted Carey Bros to install a barn door I'd already purchased. It was oversized and heavy. Matt immediately followed up with me to let me know he was going out of town for a week but would get back to me on his return. He did as promised. He came and looked at the project and made the appointment for install. He showed up on time. They did a beautiful job of hanging the door and it fit perfect. Very professional and I really appreciated all of the communication. It is nice to find a reliable contractor. read more

I found Carey Brothers in a Brentwood Publication. They were an answer to a pray! I had extensive damage due to an insurance claim, had an entryway/door created , faucets/toilets installed and other outside dryrot , gutter repairs, painting. All work was done in a timely and professionally and respectful manner. I felt very comfortable leaving my home while they completed projects. The attention to detail was wonderful! From start to finish was a smooth process. I never felt pressured . They also worked around my schedule without complaint and always on time !! My home looks so beautiful. read more

If you're like me, you want a contractor you can trust! This last winter, we had an intermittent rain water leak from our second story window. I had called another contractor, who without even looking at it, was going to just charge me to replace the whole window frame. I called Carey Bros for a second opinion. James came out and explained all the other possibilities that could cause the window leak, such as a roof leak or glass issue. He provided referrals to other contractors who could rule out those issues first, BEFORE I determine if I needed to hire him for the big job of replacing the frame. He encouraged me to call him if I had any questions related to the issue. I'm giving Carey Bros 5 stars because of his honesty and integrity. He could have just charged me to replace the frame, regardless of whether or not that was the cause. If we do indeed need to replace the frame, I'll definitely be hiring him and will update this review! read more

I've know the Carey Brothers for over 3 years now and together we have been through 3 large projects and none larger than our most recent Kitchen and bathroom renovation. We completely gutted the kitchen and 3 of our bathrooms for this renovation. Although this should have been very stressful for the family, James and Morris and their team provided amazing support so that the project went as smooth as possible for my family. The Carey brothers found an amazing company that built and installed our custom cabinets. Workmanship was to the highest quality & standard and Carol Carey coordinated the cabinets and the Granite so that the kitchen came together in a timely manner. Carol Carey transformed our ideas we had for the bathrooms into reality and all 3 bathrooms were just simply stunning. James and Morris treat their work as though they were working on their own home. Problems that pop up are simply taken care of and in all 3 projects they never nickel and dimed me for things that inevitably come up in renovation projects. It's extremely difficult to find a company that can produce high quality workmanship on a consistent basis and with the care that is normally only given by the owners themselves but James and Morris have surpassed my expectations every time we have worked together. I have been so fortunate to have found the Carey Brothers for all my home renovation projects and I look forward to more in the future. I thoroughly recommend them for all your home renovation projects. read more

This message is to Satisfied C Thank you for the comments you made about our company on Yelp. First, we want you to know that we concur with what you wrote about our designer. She would not agree to meet with you at night. We are very sorry, but as she explained to you at the time, we never, ever meet with our clients after our normal hours of operation. The previous meetings she had with you were during our normal working hours. During your last meeting with our designer, she offered to meet you again at your convenience any time during our working regular hours. You preferred an evening meeting and chose not to continue with our company. We at Carey Bros. Remodeling make every attempt to act professionally at all times. However, we also have families. As such, we have established business hours that allow us to work with our clients and to be with our families. We work very hard to be as accommodating as possible to our client's schedules and needs. Unfortunately, there are times when it just doesn't work out. Here is a recent post about us on Yelp that you may have missed: 5 Star Client Review We enthusiastically recommend Carey Brothers Remodeling! Our remodel included two full bath rooms, a powder room and our foyer, and rebuilding our deck. We're very pleased with the results, both aesthetically and in terms of improved functionality and accessibility. The brothers both have decades of experience and amazingly extensive knowledge of the construction industry, including the latest methods, tools and materials. They did most of the work on our job themselves and their work is excellent. The sub-contractors they brought on the job were also top-notch. Carol Carey did a great job on the design of our remodel and helped us choose beautiful fixtures, finishes and colors. They kept on schedule and on budget, and always showed up when they said they would. In addition, they are always cheerful and fun to be around, taking some of the stress out of remodeling. We would definitely hire them again! And there are more. The following Yelp URL will give you an insight into how we interact with our customers and how we perform our work. Several of these reviews can also be found on HOUZZ as well. https://www.yelp.com/not_recommended_reviews/carey-brothers-remodeling-brentwood 5 Star Client Review igonzals6 Relationship: Client Project Date: August 2013 Project Price: $10,000 - $49,999 We had the pleasure of working with James and Morris Carey for a major renovation of our back yard. From the very beginning, they were very personable and made us feel comfortable. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, accommodating, reliable, and very creative. One of the many positive things we noticed right away was that no matter how chaotic our yard looked while they were here, they would clean up and put tools away in the evening before they left. We had several conversations and they would listen carefully. We realized that because whatever design they presented to us always contained our personal preferences. They gave us options and have a network of professionals they can recommend for special projects. By the middle of our project, we were practically finishing each other's sentences. Whenever we spend time in our new backyard, we feel like we are on vacation somewhere special and our conversation always includes our appreciation for them and their creativeness. We have other projects in mind and plan to call them when we are ready to proceed. Vic & Irene Gonzales 5 Star Client Review My wife and I hired the Carey brothers, James, Morris, and Carol to help us remodel our 15-year-old house in a gated retirement community. From the very beginning of the project to the very end they were available to us. They answered all our design questions, gave us suggestions and recommendations for products, finishes, colors, services and more. They cheerfully made changes and adjustments when requested, did purchases and took deliveries, returned goods that were flawed, broken or otherwise unacceptable. All in all, they made the project as stress-free to us as possible, and in the end, we have a beautiful, comfortable, functional and trouble-free home. read more

Simply the BEST of the best! I can't say enough about the craftsmanship, creativity and professionalism of the company! Their customer service goes over and beyond! I have been so happy that I have referred MANY friends, coworkers and clients of my own because I just feel that passionate about their level of work! Any company that has been in the business for over 30 plus years and survived a couple of recessions and still maintained their success... speaks for itself... longevity! They have to be doing something right! Kudos Carey Bros! Keep up the great work! read more

Disappointing experience with what I thought was going to be a great contractor. Met with consultant twice expressing we needed some appointment flexibility outside of 9-5 hours and we both work. After multiple consultations for a full kitchen remodel, numerous meetings and full documentation of our scope of work, they declined to move forward with further discussions as they were inflexible for meeting after 5pm or on weekends. Really??? $100K+ remodel and you can't meet occasionally after work hours to accomadate your clients?? Well Carey Bros, your competition dies. I can have a delivery 7 days a week with a 2 hour window for the last decade. Even USPS or the DMVs open on Saturdays to accommodate clients. Don't bother here as I can only imagine how accomadating they wouldn't be if you requested flexibility during the project. #disappointed read more

My husband and I contacted Carey Brothers for our kitchen remodeling project. I have to say that everything from design to finished project was absolutely perfect. We worked with James for design and then Carol helped with design as far as products such as granite and tile backsplash and paint colors. Their communication was the best I've ever had from any contractor. Field Superintendent Matt was great to work with. Every night we received an email letting us know what was going on the next day and who would be at our house. All of the workers were very polite and courteous and kept a very clean workspace. This was the best contracting job we've ever had! Our project turned out beautiful and I would highly recommend Carey Brothers for any of your contracting jobs! You won't be disappointed! read more

Carol and James Carey has handled me with such care! From the moment I spoke to Carol and explained my specific situation with my home, she allotted me the space to vent, suppress a lot of my fears as a first-time homeowner, and assured me that I was in the right hands. James was able to come out almost immediately. He was very thorough with everything that he explained which was highly appreciated and only solidified everything Carol said that I should expect from him. He was able to provide an estimate that I felt comfortable with and was able to lead me to other resources that could better assist with my specific home disaster. He sat with me and personally map out a plan that best suited my needs which went above and beyond call for this to happen only a service call. I called the company looking for a inspection and cost estimation, but ending up gaining a lot more. These are good people with great intentions and their communication, speed, overall sense of empathy was greatly appreciated and serves as a testimony to who they are as individuals and as a company. read more

"Tell me that your remodel was actually a pleasant experience without telling me it was actually a pleasant experience." Answer: Carey Bros. This team of experts are the salt of the earth working and living with excellence. From initial meetings with James, Janie and Matt, to the hauling away of the "Honey Bucket," the communication, inspiration and skilled workmanship of the project were almost seamlessly executed. James is smart as a whip, quick as lightening but never too busy to speak to my heart. He gave financial advice regarding the project which was pleasantly unexpected. Having Janie as my personal designer was a most luxurious and pampering experience!! WE HAD FUN!!! Girl, you rock!!!! Matt is too cute for words and skilled as heck. Kevin did us a solid. In the house, day in, day out, quietly (as much as possible) acting as an excellent representative of his company. He was unimposing, yet part of the family. I wish him the best. Always. Was it more money than we wanted to spend for a small bathroom remodel? Of course! But what we got in value, craftsmanship and relationship will last a lifetime. read more

Took 2 phone calls to get an appointment. Then they no showed without a word. Not how I run my business.
