This project was mainly focused on renovating our primary bathroom along with exterior painting, deck repairs and additional electrical work. The reasons we keep hiring Munoz Construction is because they do excellent work and Jose Munoz communicates very well throughout the project so there are no misunderstandings and the customer gets exactly what they want. Jose's teams are always respectful of our home, making sure to cover the floor with drop cloths and cleaning up thoroughly before leaving for the day. Jose is meticulous about everything being done properly to achieve the best possible result. We couldn't recommend Munoz Construction more highly. This is the only general contractor we will use as we trust them implicitly.

After meeting with several contractors about the bathroom renovation we were looking to do, we…read moredecided on Munoz Construction. To be honest, it was an easy decision after speaking with Jose Munoz, Owner. Jose was gracious with his time, answered all our questions and presented us with options. Once we signed, the work commenced within a few weeks and the same professionalism we saw in Jose carried through to his team. Pedro and Armando showed up on time each morning and took great care in the work they did as well as an amazing job cleaning up each and every day. Jose stopped by once or twice a day to review the work, ask us for our decisions on various areas of the project and make sure we were totally satisfied with the work being done. He is also highly responsive to calls, texts and email communication. After three weeks we had a beautiful new bathroom save the shower door that will be installed shortly. We look forward to working with Jose and his team on other projects and have already talked to him about some interior and exterior painting we're looking to have done. Great work and competitively priced!

His quote was extremely competitive and from the start it was clear that he wanted my business, which is incredibly refreshing. Krasi was very responsive to my millions of questions (and a few design changes), kept me up-to-date on status, and his crew was respectful and efficient. Krasi was able to execute my vision, and went above and beyond, for instance raising a portion of the ceiling because I was concerned about the bathroom feeling like a closet. I will be hiring them for my next project and you should too!

I truly could not be more happy with the final product! His tile work is immaculate and his dry wall work is seamless. My husband and I have already started recommending K&A remodeling to all of our friends and coworkers. I will absolutely call Krasi when our next major home improvement project comes up! He truly gave us the bathroom of our dreams!

We interviewed 6 different contractors to renovate our basement for aging in place, designated as…read morean ALU( Accessory Living Unit) in Fairfax county. We chose the Northwood construction, Inc. Their fee was reasonable, not the lowest nor the highest. We did not have to pay up to 10K for the designer fees as in other contractors' proposal. Tran, the Northwood designer, worked fast and diligently with all the drawings,dimensions,selections of cabinets,counter top,tiles,etc. We texted Tran very late in the evening or weekend with our concerns, questions. She always replied right away. To her, client's satisfaction is very important. Thumb up for her work. Charlie, the Northwood main staff for my basement project, is a conscientious, knowledgeable and hard worker. He meticulously put in all the needed wood blockings during the framing of the bathroom walls so he could install all the grab bars and the wall hung shower seat. So, as we get older and we must use the grab bars, we will feel safe because they were installed correctly to the blockings behind the walls. Our ALU passed all Fairfax county inspections. We truly appreciate Charlie's workmanship. Our basement project started and finished on time as planned. We are very please with the results.

Outstanding service and quality workmanship! From the moment I called Northwood Construction every…read moreperson we dealt with was incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and focused on our kitchen remodel. Bob Benedict, the owner of Northwood, has an extensive background in construction and is thoughtful in his approach. Whitney Simons is an incredible designer and problem solver when it comes to designing around tricky spaces. She is super organized, has a great design eye, and very responsive to any questions/concerns during your project. Dan Clark was our dedicated project manager and contact throughout construction. You would be hard pressed to find a more conscientious, detail-oriented, thoughtful, and experienced project manager/carpenter. Our project was a kitchen remodel and reconstruction of our back kitchen stairs leading to our basement. The remodel involved removing a wall between our old kitchen and dining, replacing the entire kitchen floor and weaving it into existing hardwood, replacement of 90+ year old stairs and reconfiguring our stair landing, installation of a full-house generator, and full replacement of the kitchen cabinets and appliances. Bob and Whitney spent a lot of time at the beginning of process talking and listening to me and my husband about our needs and wants for the new space as well as our expectations for the experience. They were genuinely interested in learning what our priorities were to ensure that their design and budget met our needs. Once we had a working plan for the kitchen and stair designs, Whitney and I met regularly to make product selections and finishes. Following the selections, Bob and Whitney provided us with a final budget and plan. Northwood's over all approach and process make it stand out from other design build firms. Firstly, they do not start work until all of your materials are delivered and in their warehouse. As a result, there are no surprise work stoppages because an item is back ordered or was late in being ordered. Secondly, they have a dedicated project manager for your project during the entire build. From soup to nuts, the same PM will be at your house every day and communicating with you regarding the daily work and upcoming schedule. If a sub-contractor is on-site, your PM will be there facilitating the entire appointment. Thirdly, the quality and professionalism of their sub-contractors is bar none. The electrician is incredible--he is so knowledgeable and really works with the homeowner to troubleshoot potential issues and make sure the final electrical plan really fits the homeowners' needs. The tile installer is an artist. His attention to detail and meticulous cuts really made our backsplash shine. We installed wallpaper on our ceiling and the installers were so gifted. Our house is nearly 90 years old, and the ceilings are not close to being square, but the installers did an amazing job. Finally, the Northwood team are so friendly and genuine you will be sad when the job is finished. It is clear they take a ton of pride in their work and strive to make the remodeling process as smooth as possible. For instance, they provide an induction plate and pots/pans to use during your remodel. We are over the moon in love with the final work product and kitchen. While we are glad to have a new kitchen, we do miss seeing and talking to the Northwood team. Without any hesitation, I highly recommend for any remodeling project you may have.

They were fast, honest (this is an extra plus for girls dreaming up home improvement projects) and did great work. First, impressed with response to my inquiry - the president wrote back with AutoCAD drawings of his idea, based on dimensions I sent, and photos from similar projects to show what it'd look like afterward. When they came, the whole project took maybe 90 minutes and it's gorgeous, perfectly centered, there is trim added on the bottom that exactly matches the wall, the shelves and frame have rounded edges. Just really precise attention to the details, and beautiful craftsmanship. It's being painted tomorrow and I can't wait.

We hired Lakewood Home Builders to build a 2-story addition following an architects' plans. The…read morework was completed in 2019. Since then, we have struggled to get them to correct problems. The mini-split systems their HVAC subcontractor installed have never worked properly. They run for a little while (long enough to pass inspection apparently) and then shut off and have to be reset. Their HVAC sub said they were getting new units for us, and now that I have asked again they say they are out of warranty so they don't have to. The new concrete driveway is deteriorating already. The deterioration seems to be only on the main portion so presumably a problem with that concrete pour. When I asked about the first signs of deterioration my concerns were brushed off. The driveway was also initially made narrower than the civil engineer's specifications so a strip had to be added to make it the correct width, which looks unsightly. They also cut corners with the architect's specifications. The back stairs were supposed to be low-rise - about 6.5" - to match our front stairs for accessibility. Instead they used higher risers so those stairs have a rise about 8" and are hard for me to use. The attic pull-down stairs that were specified to be insulated are not. I worry that there are more things that we just haven't noticed that were not done to specifications. We like the space, but the rec room is unusable in winter without a working heating system. Another warning - their HVAC subcontractor installed HVAC air vents in the floor of a bathroom including next to the toilet. Imagine what happens when the toilet overflows? Code allowed that (and may still, be careful) but it's certainly a bad idea (code does not allow HVAC vents in bathroom floors in commercial buildings) and I would hesitate to trust a contractor who built like that. I really wish we had chosen a different contractor.
