Derun Construction Inc. is run by brothers Paul & Ivan Derun. I've had the opportunity to utilize…read moreDerun to fully remodel a ~40 year old Screen Porch and highly recommend their services. Rather than stating that they're great to work with (which they truly are) let me elaborate on my actual experience. Given I was seeking to remodel an existing porch structure in a pretty significant way, I initially enlisted the services of a structural engineering firm to create drawings for me. Thereafter, I began interviewing prospective contractors to perform the work laid out in the drawings and was quite surprised at the relative indifference and/or opposition shown by several contractors toward the existence of the plans - most claimed there wasn't a need for them or attempted to tell me how engineers just overcomplicate things. Paul, on the other hand, was actually delighted to know that I had these engineering plans in hand and went over them with me at our very first meeting. He was intelligent enough to realize that if he followed the engineering drawings, as laid out; he would have no issues in getting the project through the county code enforcement process which would be a win for both him, as a contractor, and me, as the client. Paul takes a lot of pride in his work and he works hard to please his customers. By nature, I am a very particular individual; and being a Realtor by profession, makes me even more so. Paul took all of my feedback in stride and did everything he could to meet my exacting standards. There were days when I literally hovered over him and his team; more so to learn from them (given my profession) rather than to supervise - but I'm quite sure this couldn't have been a lot of fun for him and the crew. In the few instances where my expectation on certain things happened to exceed the underlying project scope; Paul was very diplomatic in pointing this out to me and we quickly found common ground such that I wasn't compromising his profit margins and was able to fulfill my desires. I also wanted a proper estimate on the front end; as well as, a full paper trail of the project - including change orders - which Paul readily supplied. Paul's pricing was fair and the project was completed within the cost margins of error and project timeline I had planned for. I had a vision for what the porch would look like when completed and Paul provided a lot of good feedback in making my vision a reality. We talked through a lot of different things like material choices, design, electrical outlet locations etc. I'll conclude by saying Paul is just a genuinely good person....period; and anyone who opts to work with him is in good hands. Thank you Paul, Ivan and the rest of the team!

Very impressive customer service. The work was immaculate and the follow up was equally impressive. Jack (owner) communicated with me at first in person, on my property, followed by a quote the next day and then a couple of days before the job was to commence and once during wrap up. The final call was to collect a balance and he waited two weeks before doing that. There were several texts send by me; ie these guys are great etc. He did not appear to be bottom line driven but with his focus on my satisfaction. Of course all business owner want to get paid but that never felt like his priority. It's an art to make a client feel the way I did upon completion. Well done! For the reviews that discuss quotes and didn't select them, the cheap comes out expensive. I would expect most painters to have similar quotes and recommend getting 2 or 3 but paying a bit more for a great job done quickly, that's a no brainer to me. fyi; NEVER accept the cheapest quote and there's a subtle art to a contract negotiation. Don't play games and say what your budget is up front. It makes things go smoothly from the start and the business owner will appreciate your forthrightness. The company will say yes, no or counter. My house looks amazing and that was my #1 goal. It's important to mention that I took a bit too long responding as I am a very busy guy who travels a ton. Glad I chose this team and I'm looking forward to the next project!

He literally does it all (replacing toilets, replacing floors, treating the concrete, finding problem areas (mold) and replacing it, identify issues (wrong breakers placed in the house), painting rooms, replacing doors.. you name it and he can do it. What I appreciated the most about him is that he has strong communication, great work ethic and will get the job done no matter how long it takes. We had an issue or two with our ceiling fan after the project was done and he immediately came out to take a look - both at the fan and at the how it was wired (turns out it was the fan). He's definitely reliable and would take care of the job until the client is satisfied. His pricing is also very reasonable. I've only known him for three weeks and has already given him three projects. I'd definitely rely on Illia again in the future.

Harry Potter was good, but Nick Kovscek doesn't need a wand and an owl to transform things. If you're like me, you want a balanced review that has the good and the bad in there so that you know the pitfalls of what you're going to get into. I don't find review that just blows sunshine all the way through particularly helpful. I hate to let you down, but I don't have anything that I can say that is bad about Nick. I'm sorry. He's really just that good. Here's our story: We had an early 1970s condo with a galley kitchen with a wall between the living room and the kitchen dining area. We wanted to open up the wall to make a "pass through" but really wanted something more open. Unfortunately it was a load bearing wall. To accomplish this it was going to have to be a post and beam arrangement with a wrap to give it a clean modern Pacific Northwest feel. We wanted Pental quartz counters and large format tile back-splash. Our flooring was contracted through someone else, but we needed someone to come in and handle all the rest of it - cabinets, recessed lighting, cabinet hardware, tile work, wall removal, post+beam, faucet, appliance installation, etc. I had already purchased a decent chunk of the materials, but lacked any capacity to do the work. Knowing just enough to be dangerous, I was interviewing to find someone to open up this place and make it a showpiece modern kitchen that my new bride and I could enjoy and feel comfortable entertaining people. I had set a fairly high bar with expectations. Unfortunately that caviar taste with lumpfish budget thing... Nick was one of six contractors that bid the job, and he came in solidly in the middle. Our quantitative factors were just like yours: money and time. Our qualitative factors were the same as yours: honesty, punctuality and thoughtfulness. My desire (need) to save money was an imperative, but this is also the main room in our living space, and it couldn't be half-arsed. All of the stars aligned for Nick to win the bid, and we were off and running. Boy was it a lucky match-up! Our cabinets were delayed in delivery and Nick worked his schedule such that he could accommodate our remodel. He was incredibly flexible and as the project got underway, it came to pass that he was impeccably clean, mindful of our space and happy to accommodate changes. His billing is transparent and his pricing absolutely fair. His communication was good and he was always on top of ordering the items that I hadn't already purchased. As our project unfolded, Nick proved himself to be incredibly trustworthy, a solid worker with an incredible ethic and a dedication to make sure that things aren't just done right, but done *perfectly*. There were a couple of places where there were mistakes that were made, or spots that weren't exacting. Instead of coming up with a goofy workaround and hiding the error, he came to me and showed me exactly what was wrong and told me how he would fix it. An example was that there was a tiny misalignment in one of the cabinets. If it had been left undone, I doubt anyone could have seen it after project completion. Instead, he showed me and fixed it. Another was that the refrigerator delivered had a slight bow in the sides and wouldn't fit into the cabinet that he built. If the refrigerator had been to the specs that were published, Nick's cabinet would have been a perfect glove. Instead of forcing the square peg/round hole, Nick reconfigured the cabinetry and re-trimmed it so that no one could possibly tell. The man is amazing. While you read through this review, you may be thinking "This review is too over the top." Yeah, well, it isn't over the top enough. You want the truth? Email me. Call me. I've got an hour to tell you all the wonderful things that he's done and the money he has saved us. Hopefully he will put before and after pictures of our project on his website because they should tell you everything you need to know. There may be someone out there that doesn't think that he's the best damn thing hitting a nail, but you are going to be hard pressed to find them. Nick is the real deal that is going to make your project blow your mind. If he can't make your repair, renovation or remodel off the charts, he'll be the first to tell you. He is going to be coming back to our home to be remodeling both of our bathrooms, and I have him set in the phone for any kind of repair, or fix that might come down the pike. As a matter of fact, he has a key to our home, and he's welcome to use it any time. My recommendation is so strong that I would go so far as to say that you should schedule your projects around his availability. Finding someone with the integrity and know-how that Nick Kovscek has is tough. Hiring him to make your project shine is one of the easiest decisions you're going to make.

He is very professional and thorough, immediately understanding my vision for my kitchen renovation and making it happen (while still helping to keep my costs down on a limited budget.) I had another contractor decide that certain parts of my project were too small to be worth their time, but Nick was more than happy to take care of them and all of the additional requests that we added on to the scope of the project. We're already planning a bathroom addition and will definitely be calling Nick back out for that.

We called them to remodel master bathroom. Natalia & Robert (Contractor) came to the house to look…read moreat project and then we went into Pro-tops & picked out counters/cabinets, received our estimate and we agreed on price & start date. Natalia set up text with herself, Robert & myself. TILE: Robert suggested we go to Flour & Décor; we went there & had a horrible experience. I tell Robert about the experience at Flour & Décor he said "Well you should have gone to the ProDesk" Why did you NOT tell us that before we went. PAINT: told to pick out paint color we go Lowes & get color & I tell Robert paint we want & he states they only use Sherman Williams Paint from their store so we wasted our time. He said to rehang accessories is NOT in the contract. I asked him to hang mirrors & he agreed but said "Customers always want things for free". My husband hung all other accessories. Robert is contractor but he subs out to Daniel which in turn subs out his work mostly to Spanish speaking people which was hard to communicate. During project saw Robert about 3 hours total & Daniel maybe 6 hours total. The Electrician put a NON GFI outlet which is not straight by sink & the other outlet he put high up so cover does not fit. I told Robert about the outlet; Electrician came back & fixed it & put GFI by sink. The drywall guy comes & leaves my windows open in bathroom & leaves out the back door with all the gates open & does not notify me. Between him & Electrician leaving a huge mess on floor. I complained & Robert said "Well that is the way a construction site is". The next week the Plumer was supposed to show up & no show so I text Robert & his response was things happen so my hubby came home from work for nothing. Next was Gus tile guy with his men & tile and shower came out great. He was a no show one day. Next up cabinets were installed but counters the holes not correct so Natalia ordered new counters & they were switched very quickly. Then painters showed up & they worked hard getting that bathroom into shape. We did have a problem with a wall & the corner trim was pulling up the paint I texted Robert and he never texted me back but painters showed without notice which I was not available so they came the back next day. The painters hung the lights, painted walls, baseboards & hung the mirrors. Robert shows for a total of 10 minutes & took a few pictures & left & never heard from him again. NO one did a final walk through in which if they did would have realized that inside marble on step of shower had not been caulked & beyond wall by the shower where the counter ended is an opening. They put flat paint on all walls & it already dirty & not using that bathroom yet all you have to do is lean against it & it leaves a mark. When Natalia was here collecting money, I asked her why bathroom was painted in flat paint & she said she never heard of that either. Robert told her he would NOT repaint the bathroom. Pro-tops are responsible because that is who the contract is with. I just want everyone to know what kind of service you will get when you when you remodel with this team. Natalia said she wanted her field manager to come to look over everything but no one has gotten back to me yet. As for Robert the way he does business I do not care for & if something is wrong you fix it and make it right, period! If you want to remodel, I would make sure it is not his team because he really will have no interest in your job. Robert was hardly around during project & his communication was lacking in sometimes no texts back, calls or one-word answers. In the end the project came out beautiful with the help of the Tile Store in Matthews, Natalia for being kind and professional, Tile installers (Gus and his people) & painters (they did a lot of work getting those walls ready). Also, to my hubby, who now has to repaint the entire bathroom in semi-gloss because they refuse to repaint it. I had to shorten this due to character limitations for Google Review and everything is not in full sentences due to that. They go by two different names. So be sure to look under Pro-tops when looking up this company. I only looked up Complete Kitchen and Bath by Pro-tops and people are leaving reviews under Pro-tops.
