Luis had great suggestions and offered them in a low key way. Everyone was so easy to work with and their workmen took great pains to get everything just right and the way I wanted it. Horatio's attention to detail was phenomenal. They were reliable - came when they said they would, and cleaned up each day. I have a gorgeous kitchen worthy of any magazine. Note: I found this company on Home Advisor where they had good reviews. They had just opened a branch on Route 1 in Arlington which is close to my home. I received proposals from 5 different companies before hiring GPE. Their pricing was fair and the cabinets are an excellent quality. I don't understand the poor reviews here on Yelp but they look old. I give GPE high marks because they deserve it.

I never had to chase down an answer Teams are mostly in-house * SKB puts together top notch teams, they conduct their work in a clean way, efficiently, peacefully in your home (we were living there during the construction). They manage the timing, take full responsibility for quality and are ultra responsive to us if there were any issues (as there always are - but they handle them impeccably). I have written a longer more detailed reference. I don't want to bore anyone who doesn't need that level of detail - but if you are interested, please feel free to request it, or make an appt with me to see our kitchen and see their work first hand: francoisethalacker@gmail.com

No sales pitch. Just a warm, helpful demeanor and lots of creativity and ideas to consider…read more Katie Kieler, our designer, was flexible and provided great ideas based on our likes and dislikes. When others were all pitching a kitchen island, she understood we were happy with a peninsula design, and paid attention to the limited space and work areas based on our small kitchen. She made suggestions and redrew the plans to address our own ideas and questions. There was a great back & forth dialogue on what we envisioned. She encouraged us to take our time and explore all the different choices available. Katie eliminated a lot of the decision fatigue that happens with having to make so many choices. Katie never pushed, just made helpful suggestions. She stressed there was no rush. We chose Cabinet Discounters over other companies/designers because Katie listened. She looked at our existing kitchen and understood what we wanted and needed. She focused on work spaces and areas we would dedicate to specific tasks, like a coffee bar. We love our kitchen! And the colors! Thank you Katie and all the great work crews at CD!

I absolutely do not recommend this company, based on my aunt's experience…read more My aunt hired this company to complete work on her home more than two years ago. She has already paid an incredible amount of money for the work, yet the project has still not been properly completed. What was supposed to be a professional job has turned into an extremely frustrating, expensive, and drawn-out experience. The biggest issue has been the constant delays. More than two years later, the work is still not finished. Despite the significant amount of money that has already been paid, she has been left waiting and repeatedly trying to get the company to actually complete what they were hired and paid to do. The communication has also been extremely disappointing. Getting clear answers, updates, or a firm timeline has been incredibly difficult. Instead of seeing consistent progress, there have been repeated delays and excuses. She has had to continually follow up just to find out when someone would actually come to the house and finish the work. At this point, this is no longer a situation where you can simply say that construction projects sometimes take longer than expected. My aunt trusted this company to do the job properly and paid them a substantial amount of money. Unfortunately, she has been left with unfinished work, long delays, and the frustration of having to repeatedly chase the company for something that should have been completed long ago.

Years later and we are still constantly dealing with reminders of why we regret working with RESSA…read more Don't let that nice photo of our modern house they posted fool you. We would not hire or recommend RESSA. We completely knocked down our old home to build a modern two-story house. We hired RESSA because they quoted us at the lowest price, but in the long run we ended up paying for it with more money, time and stress. We have held off posting about RessaBuilt but no other family should have to go through our experience! TIMELINE: The project took over a year longer than initially projected by RESSA. Keep in mind they had to return afterwards to fix multiple problems that were never resolved, including multiple ROOF LEAKS. (I recently had to call a roofer to come fix yet ANOTHER roof leak (on 10/25/2022). PERMITS We had to personally deal with WSSC to get the proper permits bc RESSA was unable to resolve the issues themselves. We had to personally deal with the county to make sure inspections were promptly scheduled. After months of not being able to secure certain required permits from the county, we took it upon ourselves to personally go to the permitting office, get the answers needed, complete the paperwork required, and secure the permits for RESSA. It was extremely frustrating, time consuming and something we as the client should not have had to do. Even permitting office employees were surprised at our level of involvement and openly expressed their skepticism as to whether the RESSA team had ever done this before. LACK OF MANAGEMENT They have a project management system but were unable to keep track of all project changes, which caused a lot of confusion, delays and unexpected expenses. RESSA was unable to keep track of tasks, timeline or the budget. We always had to go digging for emails and text messages because they were not keeping track of items properly. Many items they marked as completed were not in fact completed upon inspection. During the last month we had to physically be onsite to ensure subcontractors were showing up and tasks were being completed on time, because we had lost complete trust in RESSA's ability to manage the project. The Project Manager was unqualified. During our weekly walk throughs, he'd take notes on a piece of cardboard. LACK OF EXPERIENCE WITH MODERN ARCHITECTURE It was quickly apparent that their crew had no experience building modern homes, which resulted in tasks having to be redone numerous times and some were never able to be done at a high quality level. We have also openly questioned whether the RESSA team had ever done ground up construction before. MANY BUDGET ISSUES Near the end of the project, we were blindsided by a list of items totaling around $50,000.00 that RESSA claimed we owed. This occurred after we had to personally come out of pocket almost $20,000.00 for additional plumbing that was not budgeted for because RESSA had not warned us that the number of bathrooms in the new house would require excavating out to the street for expanded plumbing tubes, per county requirements. We also had to personally come out of pocket over $20,000.00 for a sprinkler system in the state of Maryland. Today (March 15, 2023), yet again, we have two (2) more ceiling leaks! It's never ending.

We hired Ressa to build an addition for our house in Washington. I very much regret the decision…read more The quality of the workmanship is fair to poor and the project management was almost non-existent. Don't let them fool you about BuilderTrend-- it's a project management software and is only useful insofar as the project manager is competent and organized. Our project manager was both overloaded and undertrained, and Joe was onsite only twice during the whole project. The subcontractors range in quality, but you can be sure that Ressa is going with the cheapest option every time. This is especially galling because of the enormous overhead I know that Ressa is pulling (I know this because several bills were erroneously sent to me). We've been in our renovated home for over a year now, and I find new ways to be disappointed by Ressa every day. Every surface that isn't square, poorly painted wall, or cheap and poorly installed equipment makes me sad and will continue to do so until and unless I hire a professional to repair. In retrospect, I should have taken the lack of good reviews as a sign. Don't make the same error-- make sure to do your homework and hire a general contractor with solid reviews. This company should not be in business.
