My experience with Inside Out was stellar from beginning to the end. Shawn was super prompt from…read morethe start. This is not usual in this market. After touring my home and discussing the project I had in mind he had a detailed multi-page proposal for me. The first bed I received from a contractor was literally an email that went something like, Kitchen: 15k, Bathroom: 10k, Garage: 15k...Not very assuring. Shawn and his team were assuring from the get go. Communication with everyone on the team from his right-hand man, Oscar, and design wiz, Sara, to the plumber and electrician were streamlined by use of an app called Slack they use. This was so useful when you are working on a mult-month job and always have a ton of little questions or concerns. I could easily just shoot it out into the app and anyone on his team could respond. I loved that. And these guys are top-notch. Oscar did some amazing things in here. When we found an unexpected load-bearing beam, he expertly engineered a huge beam across the near-length of the kitchen that allowed us to fully open up the area...without hiring an engineer (my decision). That thing was solid. Then he took my dated fireplace and lathered it in multiple layers of concrete and mortar to make what is now a piece of modern art. Sara and Shawn both have an eye for design. When I sent a photo of one of my bathrooms to a friend she told me it looked with the W. In a few areas of the house they kind of nudged me to let them have some artistic leave and I am so glad they did. My master bath is now a study in what you should do for any small bathroom space and my laundry room has added about 100+ square feet to the home and functions as a mud room. All of the contractors he works with are exceptional as well. I will always use David O from Make it Drain plumbing and Irvin with Retiz Electric. Both of these guys are masters of their trades and very friendly and reliable too. Overall, I could not recommend Shawn and his team more. It was an honor to work with these guys. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

Shawn and his team handled my remodel this spring and I could not be happier!!! My house went from…read moreliterally drab and plain to a total eye catcher. I worked with Shawn on the design and he was always openminded about what I wanted to do and willing to provide suggestions or recommendations. His team of subcontractors did quality work and were respectful of me and my home. I had lots of people in and out of my house and had full trust in them. Most importantly, Shawn is an excellent communicator. He is always a text or phone call away, and would make time in his busy schedule to drop by the house and meet with me as needed. I have heard horror stories from my friends of contractors who disappear in the middle of a project or fail to respond to requests for updates or questions. I had none of these problems with Shawn. My renovation turned into a much bigger project in terms of the amount of changes that were made, but it never felt hopeless or endless, and the end result made it all worth it. I will definitely use InsideOut again for my next renovation project! Until then I'll just be living on the prettiest house on the block, thanks to Shawn.

Hired Armadillo after interviewing several contractors. Needed to replace my roof, repair water…read moredamage from the leaking roof (more so the leaking vents), and replace a couple of windows. Mark came across as knowledgeable and an all around good guy. I'm not saying my opinion of him as a person has changed but a year and a half later, we are still struggling with poor quality work. The subcontractor they hired to replace the roof was fine, though they didn't spread the load on the dumpster used for the discarded roofing and cracked my driveway. I let that go. They also didn't replace all the vents - just the roof, even though they knew the vents were most likely the source of the leak. This resulted in the "roof" continuing to leak post replacement and me having to address additional water damage as Armadillo slowly stepped through potential fixes (to save time and money) that didn't ultimately work. In the end, all issues were finally addressed and I had to personally repaint a ceiling. The windows are another story. First, I bought aluminum clad windows that they chose to surround with wood on the exterior, partly eliminating the value of the cladding. One window wasn't installed straight so allowed in air. It actually howled. Since it was in my daughters room, you can only imagine how that went over. Rather than immediately fix it, Mark wanted to bring out the window supplier because he suspected a faulty window. The supplier was able to deduce rather quickly the problem was the install. A couple attempts to fix were required to finally address. But, a year and a half later, the caulk is all pulling away and exposing paths for water. See the pics.

David at Armadillo roofing gave us a fair assessment and his quote was very reasonable. He and his crew were very professional and thorough. They were communicative and we appreciated the pictures of the roof and work that he texted to us throughout the process. Overall we greatly appreciate their professionalism and hard work.

We can't speak highly enough of A.R. Lucas and our experience working with his team on our remodel…read moreand addition. We met with a number of contractors and felt that Adam's experience and style was the best fit for our Crestview home. Adam is super responsive, patient (I was pregnant at the time and probably not the easiest client ever :), and has fantastic subcontractors--we trusted and truly enjoyed getting to know everyone that worked on the house. Whenever you tell someone you're remodeling, you typically get a gasp and a "Good luck! How long until you move back in? Plan for twice that." We were nervous. Our experience could not have been more opposite--Adam finished on time and within our budget, another shocker based feedback from everyone else in the world that's done a remodel. 5 stars would hire for our next project!

Prior to construction, we worked closely with our architect and Adam to ensure the project could be completed on budget. Throughout the project Adam provided frequent expense and progress reports. As this was our first construction project, we were filled with uneducated questions and concerns. Adam and his team were impressive, kind and patient in handling all our questions. They made us feel very comfortable coming to them with anything. Andrew was our main lead for the day-to-day and did a great job keeping all the subs moving and on track. The craftsmanship work that A.R. Lucas designed and crafted are beautiful and unique, and definitely my most favorite parts of the add-on. We were drawn to A.R. Lucas Construction for their craftsmanship, attention to detail and budget insight. Adam, Andrew and their team were a lot of fun to work with; it was a comfortable, collaborative and rewarding experience. We will most certainly reach out to them for our future projects.

We added a laundry room/mudroom and had to pause two months into the project when the pandemic suddenly hit.

As soon as we knew we could finish our new space he had his crew on the job site working. We love our new space! They did a great job! It's hard to find a contractor you can depend on. When we are ready for our next project we will be calling them again.

What made an already stressful situation even harder was having to part ways with our original contractor and start over midway through the process. By the time we found Matt and his team at Bailey & Bear, we were exhausted, overwhelmed, and honestly a little wary. Hiring Bailey & Bear ended up being the BEST decision I have ever made as a homeowner. His team built back our entire home, so essentially my whole house was built by Bailey & Bear. I will ALWAYS work with Matt and his team for any future construction needs. From the very beginning, Matt earned our trust. He stepped into a complicated project, took the time to understand where things stood, and helped us create a path forward. Throughout the entire rebuild, he was patient, communicative, and incredibly responsive. I mean, responding within MINUTES. No question was too small, and no concern was brushed aside. In a process that can often leave homeowners feeling powerless, Matt consistently made us feel heard and supported. It was a NIGHT AND DAY difference from any previous experiences I've had with other contractors. What stands out most to me is that Matt genuinely cares. He helped us navigate the stressful decisions with a level head, and always approached challenges with a calm, solution-oriented attitude. He and his crew treat your house as a home (not just a construction zone) when they're on site. The high level of respect & integrity remained the same for the entire time we worked together, which was months. The quality of the work speaks for itself. Our home is GORGEOUS. We've had friends (who work in the industry) make several comments about how the attention to detail on the finish work is impressive. Every room reflects the care, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that Bailey & Bear brought to the project. There were countless moving pieces, and somehow Matt kept everything progressing while maintaining a level of transparency and professionalism that is increasingly rare. After living through a major home loss, I can say with complete confidence that who you choose as your contractor matters as the single more important decision for a home remodel. I am so so so grateful that we found Bailey & Bear. Matt helped guide us through one of the most stressful experiences of our lives and delivered a home that we are genuinely proud of. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your home, you ABSOLUTELY MUST hire Matt and his team. I'd be happy to personally speak with anyone considering his bid!
