Gil is flexible, friendly, and able to answer any (and all) questions inexperience renovators may have along the way. No project is too big, or too small. Unfortunately, I don't have the best before/after pictures of our recent flooring project, but as you can see Monnot Construction clearly changed the entire look and feel of our ground floor. By removing the old linoleum, feathering in new hardwood, and sanding/refinishing the flooring on the entire first floor, Monnot added tremendous value to our home.

Instead our project was completed ahead of schedule, just under budget, and the quality of the work was excellent. And that includes an expanded project scope that came up when we discovered large issues with a neighboring property. Fairmont was incredibly flexible and easy to work with. They were always willing to listen to our ideas and make changes as needed. They were also very responsive to my questions and concerns. Fairmont's foreman or a partner subcontractor was on-site on average more than five days a week for the entire many-month project. This allowed them to keep a close eye on the work and make sure that everything was done to the highest standards, and if not the first time, they made sure it was redone. Unlike several neighboring projects, we had no stop work orders, no neighbor complaints (complements actually), and all our inspections were successful. I would highly recommend Fairmont to anyone looking for a home builder or doing a major urban renovation. They are professional, reliable, and they do great work.

It is just about a year since Fairmont completed my whole house renovation. This home, with the…read moreexception of new appliance now and then, was in original 1911 condition when I called Fairmont. This could make a project easier - assume everything has to go. However, I am an old house lover (now a three-time renovator) and keeping or reinventing old house detail was important. Carlos manages construction, the tradesmen, the sub-contractors, and the overall quality of the workmanship on the job. He is an experienced builder, taking pride in bringing ideas to life but careful to offer full disclosure on the pros, cons and risks of each option. Jose manages the business side of the project - budgeting and billing, tracking and documenting changes, purchase of materials, recommending vendors for kitchen design, tiles, stone, flooring etc. Most important was his management of communications between Fairmont and me, the homeowner. Jose took time to ask questions and listen carefully to answers. I know and appreciate how rare it is to have good communication. I also have lived the consequences of mediocre communication. Mistakes are costly. Jose follows a protocol of asking, clarifying, and following up with an email restating our discussion and inviting me to comment, add, or correct. The answers don't matter as much as the asking and listening. This worked so well there were no horror stories. To summarize: Strong management of the permitting process, of sub-contractors, deliveries, security of the property and use of appropriate safety measures. I think its important to say also that the project was managed ethically, honestly and respectfully. Everyone on the job was pleasant and upbeat. Weekly walk-thru meetings insuring the work was proceeding according to agreement. Efficient cascade of information, decisions and/or changes, from homeowner and Fairmont to the tradesmen and subcontractors. A solid team of workers - excellent workmanship, site management and daily clean-up. Also, no profanity or loudness, no littering, no complaints from neighbors, and very happily, no accidents. Lastly, Fairmont checks in with you periodically during the year following move-in. Together we created a list of little adjustments and changes that you can't anticipate until you move in. All done! The house is lovely - beautiful carpentry, millwork and all the details that make it livable for me. I feel very fortunate to have done this work with Fairmont and I would recommend them without reservation!

As you are aware, I have 2 dear friends that highly recommended W Builders; there is nothing like having people you know and respect give you the courage to move ahead with work I've been wanting to have done for some time now. Embarking on any home project is often very daunting; between the cost, your house turned upside down and of course having workers in your home while you still have to live there. I am so happy to say, you somehow made all of this quite seamless! I've owned my home for over 30 years and have done countless projects so when I tell you that your company has been my favorite and an easy one to recommend, it's saying a lot! The quality of your work is excellent and your staff does not cut corners! One day in passing, your workers specifically mentioned to me how much they enjoyed working for you as you allow them to perform their designated trade in the way they would like things to be done, even if it may take a bit longer. The gentlemen that you had on this job always respected my home which means a lot. The other compliment I would like to pass along is timeless; something that rarely happens in this line of work. Upon requesting a consult for the scope of work, you were quick to set up an appointment and equally quick on providing me with a written estimate. The estimate was detailed and accurate and if I added any additional work you were good at following up on a written statement with the additional cost. The fact that you started the project early and the crew showed up every day, on time and worked more than a full day is impressive and sadly a rarity in this business. Lastly it was easier to make choices on flooring, bathroom fixtures and the like by having you go with me to the store, being honest on your thoughts and guiding me based on my budget. Even when I purchased too much flooring you graciously took it all back and had a credit put back on my card. Thank you for renewing my faith in contractors and for exceeding my expectations with this project, something I had wanted to do for such a long time but had no idea where to start or who to use. Be prepared for my next project in 2024, I look forward to working with you again.

After our previous contractor left us without communication and without starting the job, we were referred to Greg, who immediately jumped in to get the job done before our move-in date: from start to finish, they were able to take down the wall, add lighting, and paint the room in one week! They offered super helpful advice and solutions to problems we didn't anticipate, like adding tasteful cedar planks to cover unfinished walls left by the previous owners. Not only were they quick and professional, but Greg patiently emailed back and forth with me while at work (since I couldn't have my phone on me) to go over my ideas and keep me updating on what was going on. We are so thankful to have been able to work with NOVA Contractors!!

Subsequently, we decided to move forward with his recommendation for an engineer to ensure the wall we wanted to open wasn't a load bearing wall. The engineer came and at the end of his assessment told us his visit and write up would be $900. We were a bit caught off guard but was willing to pay because we wanted to move forward with the project. And then, crickets. No word from Greg or the engineer. After a few ignored emails he finally responded to my husband; he thought it was a different client who he had recently met. When my husband reminded Greg that he already knew him and had come to our house, again, nothing. The last attempt to reach out to Greg was very disheartening. We were honest, saying we had reached out to other contractors, but that we like him and wanted a quote. He told us to move forward with them as he is pretty busy. Period. The end. What a waist of time!!! Unless your the more profitable project, move on!

I have perfectly installed porcelain tile and hardwood floors, repaired walls, and a new cabinet. Amazingly, they were able to match my existing hardwood with the new hardwood, and there's absolutely no difference - it's as if all of the hardwood was originally installed at the same time rather than being installed years apart from each other! The new kitchen cabinet was also selected and installed, and matches with the cabinets that were already in place. I was also impressed that they do not take any shortcuts, and quality seems to be a top priority for them. Even though my project was small compared to many large renovation or repair projects, I never once felt that I was any less important as a customer. I also appreciated that they were upfront and transparent about any issues that arose during the repairs, and they made sure to stay in contact with me and offered helpful suggestions for overcoming any repair barriers. The Zelaya team remained professional, courteous, and transparent, and completed the repairs on time and on budget. They truly are a company that is committed to customer service and ensuring that everyone is happy with the end result. I would not hesitate to hire them again the next time I am in need of repairs or renovations.

I consider myself a reasonable, understanding and forgiving person and don't like to give out negative reviews. I have even changed ratings from 3 stars to 5 stars because the owners kept their pride in check and stood behind their guarantee of 100% customer satisfaction.
