    Patio expansion
    Bria M.

    Novastar was great to work with and did a really good job expanding our patio concrete. The price was very reasonable and Ben and his crew were a pleasure to work with. The actual work took half a day and it looks so good! My husband and I are very pleased with the work and happy we chose to go with Novastar.

    Did a great job and was reasonably priced. Kept work area clean and minimized mess in the house during project. Always had daily updates and what to expect each day. They laid down floor covers and protected furniture from dust and debris. Would definitely recommend.

    Novastar estimate
    Alice D.

    This is just laughable. I set up a free estimate, and Ben came to the house. He started off by saying that the concrete flooring was still wet, and that he could call his own mitigation people out to take a look. This was a strange thing to say, considering I JUST had Servpro take their equipment away the same day, and they are an incredibly large and reputable company. I declined his offer, saying I would speak with my mitigation company first. At the end, he suggested he call his own mitigation company. I finally asked who it was, and lo and behold! It is Your Home Expert/Restoration Experts, which was the company that completely took advantage of me last year! I knew there was something fishy, when he kept pushing me to call out another company and asking for the insurance estimate. I have a review on all platforms about my experience with YHE/ER. They are a slimy company that takes advantage of people in distress. Any company that recommends them should be ashamed of themselves. By association, they must also be in the business to make money, not take care of people. They even use the exact same estimate/document platform (joistapp). To tie it all together, the estimate from Novastar came in at over $8,000 (NOT including materials), whereas the FOUR other quotes I requested all fell within $3-5000.

    I wanted to take a minute and share our experience with the incredible Novastar Construction team - particularly their team lead, Ben. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, the entire team was exceptional. We've rehabbed over two dozen properties, and this was our easiest experience to date. What made them stand out: Communication: Ben kept us informed and updated throughout the project. He promptly answered questions and addressed concerns, ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience. Expertise and Quality: The craftsmanship and attention to detail in the new baths and kitchen are impressive. They demonstrated extensive knowledge, guiding us through the design and material selection process with expert advice. The finished product exceeds expectations. Professionalism and Reliability: The team was always punctual, respectful of the home, and maintained a clean worksite each day. They adhered to the agreed-upon timeline and budget. Any scope add-ons were communicated well in advance and were quoted consistent with the pricing in the original quote - no crazy unexpected expenditures! Positive Attitude: The crew was friendly and hardworking, making the process enjoyable. They addressed unexpected challenges with thoughtful solutions. We HIGHLY recommended Novastar Construction to anyone considering a home renovation project. Their commitment to communication, professionalism, and delivering high-quality work is evident. We'll use them in a second if we decide to do another renovation in TX.

    Turned three single garage doors into a double and a single. Matches great and we are very pleased.

    Ben and his crew were great to work with and did a great job remodeling our garage. He made sure everything was completed just the way we wanted it and their work was very high quality. Communication was very good and we are very pleased with the final work. Plan to use him for additional projects around our home.

    Before and after photos for a project with Novastar.

    Detached garage renovation: An insulated and sealed unfinished interior and a finished out (paint, repair, seal, etc,) exterior. Remove car garage door and add new 36x80 door on interior of my yard. Wonderful experience! All of the Novastar staff were great and professional! Excellent finished product. The only reason I didn't have them finish out the interior was because this space is only for storage; like a warehouse space. I would definitely use Novastar for any future work and highly recommend them. Excellent value (very competitive pricing) honest, and professional!

    Kitchen

    Having done a few projects, one of the issues we always had was an excellent and friendly sales pitch by the project manager/owner but a shoddy Job by the subcontractors hired. This was the first time we noticed that the pitch was as good as the work done by the sub contractors hired. Ben (owner of Novastar Constructions) right from the start was very easy to deal with, transparent and clear about what can or cannot be done. The work started exactly when it was promised and was complete on budget. Ben and his sub contractors were very considerate of our young family and did all they could (include work through the weekend) to get the job done sooner. I would highly recommend Ben and Novastar Constructions. Thank you Ben for your time and effort with the projects. Hopefully we can get to Phase 2 soon

    New flooring
    David C.

    Novastar did an amazing job. They finished installing the new hardwood floor in my house. Turned out exactly how we wanted it.

    Ben the project manager is very responsive to requests. They handled everything properly. Finished all work on time.

    Accessory building exterior shed

    Ben is awesome! His team built a shed for us from scratch! He tailored the shed to our specific needs, worked with the city to get permits, and was always available to talk and edit as needed. They kept me informed every step of the way and was very easy to get a hold of. I highly recommend!

    The flex entrance before

    I hired Novastar to add a door to my flex space to turn it into an office, the finished door was flawless and looked like it was done by the home builder, the new wall texture matched the old one and they were very professional, i recommend Novastar construction and i will be using them again in future projects.

    I highly recommend Novastar for home remodeling jobs, both large and small. They are incredibly responsive and take the time to listen to what you want to accomplish. Ben, at Novastar, will go the extra mile to ensure that you are completely satisfied with the job and make fantastic suggestions along the way to help guide you through your project....we all know these jobs can be overwhelming at times. They offer competitive pricing and don't put you on the back burner for larger jobs. I'm highly satisfied with the work they did on a move-in remodel like I just finished with them. Recommend! I had all flooring replaced, new electrical system, lighting, chimney work, patch work and paint in closets, kitchen sink area reconstruction. Also, I had a long list of things to get fixed from an inspection report. Very happy with all the work completed!

    Professional dependable and excellent workmanship! Had a leak that came through to living area and the repair is perfect! Would highly recommend Ben and his team

From the very beginning they rush you, make you sign something to only work with them (sketchy, red flag) and then they do mediocre work. They're going to take advantage of you and your home when you're in an emergency type situation. As immoral as they come. They messed up my bathroom tile, then made me feel bad when I asked them to do it right. As if I was asking too much when they didn't do it right in the first place? They also installed a random circular silver drain in the shower, when I asked for and ordered a square gold drain. Hello? The owner, Michael, simply chalked it up to "hiring workers that don't speak English." If that doesn't tell you all you need to know... The attention to detail and doing a decent, not even good, job is just not there. They didn't finish caulking behind the toilet or on top of the counter. They scratched the paint off of 3 doors, and refused to compensate or correct. They got dirt all over the walls and even got paint on my front door and hallway tile. They littered cigarette butts and a giant sponge (???) in my front yard. They left an entire garbage can of trash in my front yard. They even messed up my garage door, when that is an area of the house they were NOT authorized to do ANY work in. Who knows where else they were messing around while I wasn't home? When I asked them to remove the master toilet, I specifically and repeatedly asked them to cover the hole in the ground. When I arrived home two days later, I walked in to find the sewage hole completely gaping open, releasing toxic sewage fumes into my home and bedroom. Unbelievably thoughtless, careless, and downright hazardous/dangerous. They started trying to charge us hundreds of dollars at the end for things we already discussed, and then when we tried to talk to the owner, he basically said he'd just hand us over to his lawyer. He knows he is taking advantage of us, so he didn't want to discuss the money details with us. You can see in the attached videos/photos that they also threaten to take legal action against us, should we post an honest review. They don't have any basis to do so, but just want to scare customers into silence. That's why they don't have any other bad reviews on here. It's too late for me, but please, save yourself. Find another company.

As a homeowner, it's been surprisingly hard to find contractors that meet my criteria, but Innovations Touch met them all! Although I have larger projects planned in mind, I hired them for some smaller projects to see how they'd do, especially after hearing horror stories of larger renovation projects being handled poorly. My townhouse was built in 1981 and needed some repairs. Innovations Touch installed a custom guard rail at the attic hatch, installed some new window screens, fixed the catwalk in the attic, did some window siding and wall repairs and completed some behind-the-walls plumbing work. During the whole process, they set expectations well, did a great, detailed job of the work, exceeded my expectations, was fair in price relative to the quality of the work and expediency, and even cleared up a slight miscommunication we had very professionally with no ego or attitude. I was very impressed. Given they literally met all of my criteria, I trust them completely now and it feels good to have an "I know a contractor guy" for renovations for myself and others now. I'm still building my "rolodex" for home repairs, renovations, and HVAC, but glad I'm taking one big one off my list.

    Yeah...not a 5-star experience…read more We had them remodel two bathrooms in one of our homes. The remodels themselves are fine, minus incomplete work and the window they broke (more below). However, their communication is AWFUL. You are just a transaction to them. Of course, they are there and willing to listen before the work starts while they sell you something. But scheduling and install communication was non-existent or one-way on their terms. The contractors (sub-contractors?) showed up when they wanted. When they had questions about choices they asked our tenants instead of contacting us directly, despite us making it very clear we were the decision makers. They told us they would come back to install the final corner shelf that was missing or forgotten (don't know the story because communication). They even tried having our tenants sign off on the work even though it wasn't completed. Above all, what upsets me most is that they broke one of our bathroom windows. The contractor tried to sidestep it and blameshift by making statements about not having before pictures to compare and know if it was broken prior. He said he would "call his boss" and they would call us back, but WE have had to call THEM multiple times only to be told "someone" would call us back eventually to get it sorted out. Three weeks went by and our tenants had to weather the 2026 severe winter storm with a broken window. They collected their final payment and I don't expect to hear back from them at this point (though they may be hearing my credit card company about reversing that payment soon). If you're looking for a contractor who has a shred of integrity, ownership, and trustworthiness then keep looking.
