After professional cleanup, the headache of dealing with an insurance adjuster, and the due diligence of meeting with multiple contractors to get bids on putting the basement back together, we went with Rentz Remodeling and Contracting. And wow. The difference between someone like Matt Rentz and other contractors we've dealt with has been night and day. A selfish part of me wants to keep this knowledge to myself, in case we need him again, but he's too good NOT to share. First of all, his bid was extremely fair. Since we were dealing with repairs and not an elective home remodel, we didn't have a ton of money set aside. Just what was left of insurance after a not-great cleanup crew charged us through the nose. Matt detailed out everything he would do to fix the basement, with line items for both labor and cost of materials. There was no guessing or having to ask for more detail; he came prepared with paperwork and was always extremely open about what everything cost. Secondly, he and his crew were incredibly polite and professional. In a pandemic, having new people in your house is always a little anxiety-provoking. The first thing they did when they arrived is put up a plastic zip door between the basement stairs and the rest of the house. And they never came through it into the main house. We worked out a system where he would text if he needed to ask any questions, which meant I could go anywhere in the house without worrying that I couldn't hear them if they needed anything. But for the most part, they came and went according to the needs of the work, and I didn't have to do much of anything at all. Thirdly, Matt and his crew are not just great contractors, but good guys. We had a problem with the hose discharge line for our sump pump freezing over during a cold snap, so my husband had temporarily removed it. Matt noticed and pointed out that he'd seen excess water leak through basement walls before, and texted with me about potential solutions we could try ourselves to keep it functional through the winter. Not an upsell--but just because he had knowledge he thought we could use. I'd recommend Rentz Remodeling and Contracting to anyone. (I've already given his name to a few friends.) And the next time we need anything done around the house, these guys are at the top of my list. A++, 10/10.

I should have done more research on this company before using him. Its very shameful what he does. Also not to mention that he made a huge mess cutting into drywall and it got all over the house and he did not care. So we had to have a cleaning company come out to address that dust everywhere.

Just drive to this place and prepare for your search to be over. This place offers an amazing variety of countertops and kitchen designs. It's easy to visit any countertop business and take a look at sample granite & quartz, but to really get an idea of what you're looking for, you have to look at the slabs! During my first visit, the showroom employee took me to the back to look at all the slabs. Wow, not only is everything stunning, but it really helped to see these up close to check out the detail! Exotic offers extremely reasonable prices for countertops and all employees are such a pleasure to deal with. Even the guys who came to install my countertop were friendly and joking around with me. Dina is such an asset to this company. She works in the showroom and she will help you complete your interior design image! She is very helpful, patient, and wants to help you along the way. Dina caters to her customers to make sure they are satisfied. Unfortunately I don't need anything else from this place anytime soon, but looking forward to returning down the road when I need to move !
