After shopping around…read morefor multiple other contractors, I rated them the best: good value for the price, over 15 years' experience, and great references. They successfully installed a wet bar in record time with excellent craftsmanship. Javier and his crew are true professionals, hard workers, and experts in their fields of electricity, plumbing, and carpentry. They took the time to review many critical steps in the remodel to validate that they were accomplishing every step as close as possible to my requirements. They initially proposed to me an 8 day tear out and installation timeline and finished the job in only 6. I am pleased with their work and look forward in doing more business with them in the near future... Thank you for creating such a beautiful and functional wet bar!!!

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!

Our house had not been renovated since it was built in the 90's and we were nervous after hearing many horror stories of bad contractors. While driving down Tyco Road one day, we saw a sign that said "Home Design Center & Flooring." On a whim we decided to stop in and were met by the owner - Nafi. We learned that he had been in the same location for over 25 years and works mainly with referrals and repeat clients. He has an impressive book of business, is highly trusted by references, and he quickly understood what we wanted to accomplish. He visited our home and provided smart and thoughtful suggestions to optimize our project. After interviewing several other contractors, we decided to move forward with Nafi's team. He was extremely accommodating in scheduling with us and said he would make an effort to limit the time we had to spend out of our home in consideration of our family. He made this entire project an exciting and stress-free process, and we will always refer his company over anyone in our region. He is someone you can fully trust in your home, and is a doer who gets things done from beginning to end. Nafi and his team accomplished everything they said they would and more, and best of all, they did it ahead of schedule and on budget. Home Design Center's team comprised many workers who have been with him for 20+ years, which is so uncommon in this industry. They're experienced, knowledgeable, pleasant, and respectful. They worked with us every step of the way to answer any questions we had, provide suggestions, and remedy any concerns. We are thrilled with the way our house looks and we look forward to using Home Design Center for our future renovation needs!

Eddy and his son Jr make a great team. The entire process was so easy because of their knowledge, skill, and professionalism. They applied for the permits and coordinated the inspection schedule which was incredibly helpful. They are highly skilled and did all the work themselves (never had to subcontract). They are honest and their prices are fair. They understood our needs and never tried up sell us on anything. They were reliable and professional. They offered us a formal quote and followed the payment schedule per the indicated timeline. We also like that they focus on one job at a time so you have their undivided attention. I can honestly go on and on. Renovations are known to be stressful so I was pleasantly surprised to learn they don't have to be. I look forward to working with Poinelli Home Improvement again on future projects.

Upon scheduling our first meeting with the owner John O'Sick he was able to give us a rough estimate of how much all of the work would be. He worked with our budget and was very honest about prioritizing the projects and we appreciated that. Speaking of budget, we also appreciated that John would always have a full range of options available for us to decide upon, not only in product selection but also with unanticipated repairs needed (our home is over 100 years old). John was in constant contact with all of the utility companies, as well as DCRA, ensuring that we had all of the permits and any other paperwork required. It was very reassuring to know that a contractor takes the time and initiative and really wants the best for you and your project. John is extremely easy to be in communication with, his staff is honest, hardworking and skilled - all things that I think are important to anyone taking on a project, big or small. Walking into our home on Day 1 versus now, you wouldn't believe it was the same property. The transformation was not only beautiful but also functional.
