Overdue review of Andrew and Anla Construction here. I could not recommend a company more than I…read morerecommend Anla. From the quality of work, to the prices, to the reliability and timeliness of each interaction, Anla was top notch. We also trusted Andrew and team completely and frequently left them alone in our house while they worked on updating both of our upstairs bathrooms. When we had a miscommunication on paint colors, Andrew and team never questioned the outcome, they immediately came back over and repainted the bathroom. To top it off, I also asked Andrew if he could help me to notch out a portion of my basement ceiling to so I could fit something downstairs. This had nothing to do with my bathroom remodel, however Andrew immediately came over with his crew and helped do it at no cost. If you're looking for a remodel, I highly recommend Anla.

What I enjoyed most about working with Andrew from Anla Construction was he was so professional and…read moretrustworthy. We recently ended up doing 2 projects with him. He is talented, helpful, and reliable. He showed up every morning on time and finished the projects a few days earlier than quoted. He is client focused. This was the first time we did a bathroom remodel and he helped guide me in making decisions for function and design for our bathrooms. I had a wonderful experience working with Andrew and I highly recommend Anla Construction for any of your home remodeling needs.

We had a great experience with Joe and Rene at Forty Eight Oaks! We did a bathroom renovation that…read moreinvolved opening up a wall to take some of the space for the bathroom from an office closet. We had some surprises along the way like finding some piping in the wall we opened up but Joe and Rene were able to reroute everything just fine. We also ordered a new window for the bathroom that we had to wait on and our window contractor kept delaying the install so Joe and Rene offered to pick up the window and install it for us. Really saved us a lot of time and hassle! Overall such a good experience-so easy to work with and great communication throughout. We are already planning on having them do more projects for us! Highly recommend! Great value and great service!!

This has been exhausting. Frank responded right away.he acknowledged that he was busy but that he…read morewanted to help. I felt so grateful. Then it took 2 weeks to even get him to respond with a time for someone to come check out the project. I had to follow up repeatedly. Then he sent the construction lead Mike to do the estimate. Mike texts me an estimate of $1500. I check with Frank to confirm and he said "No, that's a a mistake, it's really $2500". It is still my low bid so I take it. I ask for a detailed invoice and Frank sends a text with project details. I just deal. But scheduling the start date is a mess too. They tell me on Monday that they can start Friday. I say, "great, what time? I need to schedule work and childcare." Mike says, "I won't know until Thursday evening."!! What?! I can't plan for that. Frank tries to clarify and say he will give me an update the next day. No update the next day (Tuesday) until I follow up Wednesday. They say Friday afternoon after lunch. Today is Friday so I confirm (as I am worried they will not show) and ask if to expect them at 1pm. They say, "no, 3-5 pm". CANCEL! I just can't work like this. I have a kid at school and a job. I suggest you don't either. Frank says he is sorry I feel this way (not that they behaved like this) and that he was doing me a favor to squeeze me in. Between the estimate $1500/$2500 mix up and the very little leadership offered by Frank (the owner) who says his job is the money and the scheduling: I say, you are better off paying more elsewhere. That is what we will do. I have the texts saved if anyone needs evidence of how this all played out. UPDATE: The owner Frank has written his response below which confirms his lack of feeling apologetic for all the trouble I mention above. Frankly, he is the cause of the challenge as what I encountered was a problem of bad leadership and administration. If you want to confirm the exhausting effort made to get them to follow through and schedule something, please write me a message and I will send you the text thread images. Honestly, if he had replied with a sincere, "I'm sorry, our inconsistency must have been difficult." I would have softened the review because of his ability to take responsibility and try to correct it. Only hire them if you have time to sit at home waiting for a maybe and know that he will blame you for his shortcomings.

The craftsmen who work for this company are awesome. Their work was top notch and they were…read morerespectful of us and our home. However, the "designer" who was assigned to our project was a disaster. The project was pushed back, she suggested materials weren't right for the application, didn't order the correct quantity of materials (delaying completion), ordered grout without letting us approve the color, ordered the wrong window and lied about costs. This bathroom remodel ended up costing us over $1200.00 more than what we had been told. Fortunately, the craftsmen worked around her mistakes and the bathroom is beautiful, but we would never hire this contractor again - we think they should have eaten all of the mistake costs. We understand we could have gotten a lawyer, but that's not our style.

Like many such bathroom-plumbing works, this is a complicated installation that can easily go wrong a hundred ways. The RR people planned it and did it at one go. Done right! Our compliments on the excellent work by the technician who visited us to install the shower door (apologies - I did not write down his name). He did an overall fantastic job, start to finish, earning a 100/100. He is competent, professional, and courteous. He answered all our questions patiently and stayed focused on the job without rushing it. Notably, the final cleanup was so thorough! Earlier, the person who visited us for the estimation and measurement was equally good- very knowledgeable! The office personnel who handle the scheduling are very responsive and understanding of our (customers') changing needs and priorities. At first, we were concerned about the high-end quote, but every cent of the price was worth it. Good job, Refreshing Renovations, and the management and support team.

Our project was a complete kitchen renovation which took 2 months to complete. He was always on time, went above and beyond and his work was impeccable. His team (Mike mostly) installed our custom cabinets and they are exactly what we wanted. This was last summer and we couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend him as a general contractor. He's honest, trustworthy, and highly talented.

I wanted a new patio installed, the landing of my back porch replaced (which had broken off and left a hole) and extended to match the patio, the corner of the foundation patched, the front sidewalk slab replaced (that had broken away from the front porch and broken in half), and a hole in my front porch sealed so that the critters would stop using it as nest. My new patio is amazing - better than I could have imagined! The holes in my porch (front and back) are now sealed, I don't have to look at the missing foundation corner, and I don't have to worry about critters any more. :) I am VERY pleased with the work! Would definitely recommend them and will be calling them for future renovations and other concrete work.

It destroyed $20K in patio furniture and ruined our deck, master bedroom and custom French doors. Not to mention the smoke damage in the home.
