    Walls are "Slate" and Floors are "Lakeshore Drive".

    I had Impressive Basements do a major overhaul on my basement. They created a bedroom with two closets (one cedar), installed a full kitchen and created a full bathroom (with linen closet & built in cabinet). From the owner to the contractors, I couldn't be happier with the communication and the final product. If you can dream it, they can do it! Highly recommend them to my friends and family. Thank you Impressive Basements - we love our basement!

    Detroit Build

    We just wrapped up a kitchen and bathroom renovation with Detroit Build a few weeks ago and it…read morecouldn't have been a better experience! This is a long review, but I tried to include what would have been helpful when I was looking for the right contractor to work with before our project started. I reached out to the team late last summer and scheduled a time for an initial consultation in September 2020. Several members of the team came out, including Seabrook, the owner, and Rebekah, a designer with Whiski Kitchen. One thing I loved about that initial experience is that we discussed absolutely everything up front - the design concept, how far we should go with the scope of the project, the timeline (we entered into this project when I was 4 months pregnant - whoops), budget, etc. Then, Rebekah took everything I was looking for and turned it into a beautiful digital rendering that we tweaked a bit from there (for the record it looks EXACTLY like how our actual kitchen turned out!). I was really blown away by how much time and care they put into the project before we had even signed a contract or committed to anything. This process between the initial meeting and signing the contract took a couple of months but it was well worth it in the end and the back and forth up front saved us so much time once the project was underway. Work started a couple weeks later! During our early conversations Seabrook jokingly told us that no matter who we work with for this reno, we were going to be miserable while the house was torn apart, but it seriously wasn't that bad! I give so much credit to Detroit Build for how smooth the process was for many reasons, but most notably: - The team is pretty exceptional at project management and did an excellent job of ensuring there were almost no unused days while the project was underway. We chose to leave the house every day while the team was here (except Saturdays) and of the 12 weeks they were working, there were maybe only 4-5 days when I came home and couldn't clearly tell what had been done that day. They also wait to start demo until materials (such as cabinets) start to come in so you don't spend any time waiting on deliveries, which felt really important given that EVERYTHING is backordered at the moment. - Kristy was my main point of contact during the renovation and she's the absolute best - I miss texting with her every day now that our project is over! I didn't have a day-by-day project schedule or plan to go off of which I actually really liked because this business can be incredibly unpredictable and it's easy to feel disappointed when things don't get done on the exact day you're expecting them to. Instead, I had near-daily updates from Kristy via text - especially after the rough inspection was done, and a general idea of when we'd see major milestones completed and I always felt like I was in the loop/knew what to expect. - They were transparent about how the timeline and cost would be impacted if I made changes to the plan while the project was underway so we could weigh all aspects into our decisions. That said, we added quite a few elements (including painting two additional rooms outside of the initial scope) and the project ended right on time! - I just love the Detroit Build team and everyone they work with, both direct employees and subcontractors. Everyone was so kind, respectful and treated our 100-year old home like it was their own. The team even made recommendations for the design based on things they knew we'd need when we had a baby that I would never have thought of! They really treated our project with care and made us feel like a priority. At the end of the day, no renovation is going to be 100% perfect. I work in project management personally and I make mistakes, so it would be unreasonable for me to expect that anyone I hire wouldn't occasionally do the same. What set this crew apart was how they handled it when there was a concern or a miscommunication (though there were so few). In fact, the team proactively pointed out issues to us (like a small scratch on our tub) that they believed to be their fault that I hadn't even noticed. At the end of the day those experiences just showed me how much Seabrook and his team care about taking care of clients. We couldn't have asked for a better team to work with during this renovation - I hope this has been helpful if you're considering DB for an upcoming project! We'll definitely hire them again in the future.

    Let's start with the positives: The owner of Detroit Build came out and looked at the job and was…read morevery helpful. The workers who came into our house were very kind and friendly. They covered all of our floors leading up to the bathroom (remodel). The completed job matches our original plan. They were able to make adjustments when things were not going according to plan. They were able to obtain all the materials we picked out. Anytime we reached out to our Project Manager he was able to respond and give us information in a timely manner. Since we don't have a garage, they were able to provide us with a trailer which held all of our materials on site. Negatives: They gutted the bathroom as planned. When they laid the floor, they never covered it with paper so they continued to remodel the bathroom walking on the newly installed floor. Seems like not a big issue, but it's winter and they were dragging in dust, snow, ice and salt onto our new black floor. All of the debris was falling onto the new floor. Due to the fact that multiple people are working on multiple jobs, mistakes were made and workers had to come back out to fix errors made. Part of why we went with Detroit Build is because they had a design team. We were still required to go out and find the materials on our own. Our assumption was they would take care of this step. While our Project Manager did get back to us, we had to reach out weekly to get updates. At the end of the project the only cleaning that was done was construction cleanup. We were disappointed to find out that they did not have a cleaning company to take care of this job. It wasn't a clean and pristine feeling that you would expect with a remodel. We had to call and get a "deep clean" on our newly remodeled bathroom.

Our Real Estate agent had stated that this company would be the individuals to do the work. Months went by and via text and calls, appointments were missed that were promised, "Something" always seemed to come up. In March of '24, our contact delivered supposed remorse, and as we were also looking to get a new front door and attic insulation, offered us a "deal" to help compensate for the wait. We agreed - much to our chagrin. Fast forward to June '24. Pages and pages of texts demonstrating missed appointments and delays. Finally - our siding was installed by a local sub-contractor, almost 8 months after the original agreement was initiated. Note - as an aside - unknown to us, a family of bats had apparently took up residence between the open siding and our interior garage wall, then moved into the garage proper once the siding blocked off their original exit. Good times. Still however; no door, no insulation - (Hello electric bill in the summer, pleased to meet you!)- and money invested but work unrealized. Reams of texts continued and in one surrealistic week, the installer essentially promised on five consecutive days that they would be there or one of their sub's would be there "Tomorrow" at 9 or 10 am, only to disappoint. I missed work days in the beginning waiting for them, we missed our kids new friends' birthday party and other events holding out the hope one of those promises would come to fruition. In fact, by this time, we were almost afraid to say "No" to a promised day, such that it might actually happen. It is now late August, 2024. We asked for a refund recently after a hard conversation with our contact, and are again seeing the same behavior, the same dissembling. "The door was special order and we have to wait for the funds come to us before we can refund you" - Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow they say but it has already been 2 weeks. We are now being told by someone whom states that they, not our original contact, are the business owner and that "we will see our refund on Wednesday 9/4". Oddly enough, but not unsurprisingly, our original contact stated he was the business owner in previous conversations, presented himself as such to mutual acquaintances and is even listed as such in another review on this site. I've seen a few good reviews from across various sites for this company, and I'd like believe that they are genuine. This however does not mitigate nor change our opinion that PJ Construction LLC, based in Royal Oak, Michigan, desperately needs improvements in business administration, scheduling, and customer service. Our frustration with the lack of integrity and follow-through has been both considerable and disheartening.
