Budget Granite truly brought my husband's and my vision to life. During our full home remodel, they…read morecreated our custom vanities, kitchen countertops and island, laundry room cabinetry, stained our staircase, and built a custom bookcase. Norman, Sharon, Wen, and Ian are exceptional--not just in their craftsmanship, but as people. They are some of the kindest and most genuine individuals we've had the pleasure of working with. They care deeply about what they do, and it shows in both the quality of their work and their reliability and responsiveness. The way they treat their clients is truly next level. They are consistently on time, dependable, and deliver beautiful results. Norman has an incredible eye for selections, and I really enjoyed learning from him about cabinetry craftsmanship. Since this was our first home remodel, we leaned on his advice often--and many of his suggestions ended up shaping our home in the best way. Throughout the entire process, they went above and beyond. Anytime we had a vision, we could call Norman and the team, and they would find a way to bring it to life. Norman would come out, take measurements, and make it happen. When I wanted a custom bookcase, they absolutely delivered. That level of dedication and follow-through is rare. Wen also played a huge role throughout our remodel. From answering every question to supporting us through the final stages, he was incredibly kind, patient, and present the entire time. The customer service we experienced was outstanding, and the quality of the materials, custom cabinetry, and installation exceeded our expectations. You won't regret working with this team. It's rare to find people who care this much about their craft and their clients. We're incredibly grateful to them for showing us what true excellence looks like.

It was so bad I just replaced the tub. They destroyed my tub by grinding g at it and then the finish they sprayed on was covered in dust nibs. My photos will show you all you need to see. They charged me $795 for this and gave zero explanation or apologies, they did say they would charge $450 more dollars to fix what they created , I was shocked at how terrible the work was and the customer service afterward was pathetic. I fired them and made them refund my money. I should have made them pay to replace my tub.

This store is like the Mecca of home stores. And I'm lovin' it!…read more I was here today on Black Friday, of all days. It was crowded, yes, but I expected that. Despite the chaos of the parking lot outside, everyone in the store was cordial and well-behaved and everyone seemed happy to be there and were all in a holiday mood. And holiday and seasonal items were everywhere. This store has the largest selection of Christmas items and gift ideas (and even some Hanukkah ones, too!) of any home store I've been to in a long, long time. A small sampling of the items here: gourmet candies and chocolates (many already boxed and packaged and wrapped for gift-giving, and many from Belgium or elsewhere in Europe. Really pretty!), gourmet oils and vinegars and spices and pastas and sauces, lotions and potions and bath bombs and soaps, all sorts of beauty and skin care items, all sorts of bathroom and kitchen items and gadgets and linens and towels, decorative pillows and throws, gorgeous cutting boards and serving trays and bowls and plates, picture frames, wrapping papers and boxes and cards, toys and games, pet items of every sort, artificial trees and wreaths and figurines and stockings, more candles than you can imagine, and stationery and pretty home office supplies. And more, so much more. As much as I mentioned above, I know I am leaving out a lot. The line to check out was quite long, but it moved along a good clip, and there were lots of fun items lining the shelves to check out as we moved forward towards the cashiers. It was an efficient process, as every cashier counter was staffed today (being Black Friday and all), so no complaints here. All in all, my kid and I loved visiting this store and if I lived in Portland, this would definitely be one of my go-to places!

It's easy to navigate even when under construction and was very clean. We stopped by the bathrooms first and they were completely gender-neutral and super clean which I very much appreciated. We were able to fill up our water bottles before shopping, a relief because I had just filled my water bottle with water that didn't taste great so I was able to dump it out and get good water instead. The store itself was clean and had fun stuff to look at. I ended up getting a couple of little things, spending about $15. There were employees everywhere ready to help but not intruding, so we were able to wander without feeling pressured to buy anything. Check out was quick and easy. The whole store was very nice, very clean, and very welcoming. It felt safe and inclusive, which I appreciated as a queer person. Would definitely go back for more wandering!

With 3 autistic boys, it is very challenging to do self checkout. I complained to a worker, and he…read moresaid you don't even accommodate for people with disabilities any longer as they aren't offering cashiers - like our family. Trying to checkout with the kids is nearly impossible as they are trying to scan items over and over again. I am extremely displeased that you won't have ANY cashiers at registers, even for families with disabilities. I am considering not continuing to shop at IKEA for this reason. Also, the kid area was entirely closed today. But generally I'm disappointed as my 9-year-old and 2-year-old want to go but only the 6-year-old is the correct size. This is discriminatory toward boys generally as they tend to get bigger quicker. You should allow any kid who wants to play (and not be closed on a random Sunday!).

John is professional, creative, communicative, detail-oriented, timely, and extremely talented. When using subs, they were all courteous and skilled. His drawings of the proposed plans, his quote and his billing were great. (And spot on!) He was flexible with us and never showed irritation or impatience when we wanted to make a change. He gently offered suggestions when we asked for them, all of which we took. He not only built the cabinets himself, but also did most of the other construction on the job, making the timing of everything run seamlessly. The only things subbed were some electrical, plumbing, drywall, and countertops. I wish all the best John and hope his business flourishes.
