LOVE, LOVE. LOVE I…read morejust love my new flooring!! I picked wide plank luxury vinyl for my entire main floor. I love how it looks and how it flows seamlessly from the Living Room/Dining Room space to the Kitchen and even in to the small bathroom. I have been walking on the floors barefoot since they were installed. The installer did a good job on the thresholds. Both the kind that lead to an outside door and the difference in the color of the plank into the bathroom space. The Owner Tina was great to work with. I will work with Seestedt's again when I update my stairs and upper level of my home. I see my hometown is listed as someplace in California. Not true, Saint Paul Minnesota suburb.

Until you are looking for a destination, you may not realize how close or where it is. Working in St Paul we have easily driven past Seestedt's a few hundred times going to work or Saints games. Anyhow we are considering remodeling our bathroom and based on my Yelpsearch, Seestedt's had some very solid reviews. Being that they are local and family owned are other key factors that we support. I had already done some research on their website to see what they had in stock. When we arrived we were greeted by Garrett and Clare. Garrett showed us to the area where they had their vinyl plank flooring. Seestedt's has carpet, vinyl plank and wood flooring and more. Garrett was very helpful answering our questions and explaining the benefits and different types of flooring we were looking for. We also learned that Seestedt's is in a historical building as we were shown the cut room where they used to cut the carpet decades ago. We were able to get a better idea of the colors we would like as this trip was more of information and check out the styles before we make our purchase. Seested's is also in the process of moving to a new location off of 94 and I believe White Bear Ave. They should be in their new location sometime between the end of this year or early 2019. Thanks to Garrett for his friendly and helpful information, we will be visiting again soon to either narrow our selections down or to purchase our flooring.

He cleanly removed some of the baseboard so the shelves would be flush with the walls, added quarter round to the base, and caulked the edges for a seamless, built-in look that completely elevated the space. He also relocated our Nest thermostat to the opposite side of the wall. Benjamin has done a variety of other projects, too, including installing a storm door in our sunroom, repairing and replacing rotted wood, and replacing the interior door trim. We've been super pleased with all of it - he is detail oriented, diligent, and reasonably priced. Highly recommend Benjamin!!

Read this before you sign anything with Creative Homes…read more First, no matter which builder you choose, bring your own realtor. Do not rely on the builder to "look out for you." We worked with Vic Wittgenstein at Coldwell Banker Burnet (Crocus Hill) and he was excellent, but that representation was critical. Now, the hard truth: Just moments before handing over our first $5,000 earnest money check (with another $10,000 due shortly after), we were informed that Creative Homes only uses flat paint (a non-negotiable). This was disclosed after hours of selections and decisions had already been made. Flat paint. In a $400,000+ brand-new home. With young children. Flat paint cannot be cleaned without damaging it. The walls now look terrible, and repainting will be inevitable far sooner than it should be. The timing of this disclosure felt intentional (and gross). It didn't stop there. We paid $250 per room to paint our kids' bedrooms different colors. Total: $500. They didn't even paint the closets. Quality issues were constant. Their "thorough inspection" missed multiple electrical outlets and a pot filler. When we pointed out a missing outlet, it was slapped in at the last minute in the wrong location. When we raised concerns, we were told, "You got an outlet." Plans be damned. Selections are another trap. Any faucet or fixture that isn't their cheap default is wildly marked up, often 2-3x the retail price. Even worse, the defaults don't match other finishes. We ended up with antique silver cabinet hardware and ugly chrome faucets. Our kitchen faucet was quite literally half plastic. We chose to replace fixtures ourselves because it was cheaper than their "upgrade." Then came the windows. They don't use local manufacturers like Andersen because Pella is cheaper for them. While cleaning, we discovered the windows were only caulked where visible. The top edges weren't caulked at all. That sums up their approach perfectly: If it's hidden, skipped, or the bare minimum- they'll do it. Anything to save a dollar, at the homeowner's expense. My advice: Do your homework. Talk to real homeowners. And don't be fooled by a polished model home, as it does not reflect the quality behind the walls.

We closed on a new home from Creative Homes in May 2025. We reported an issue in June 2025 with…read morethe sidewalk for a warranty repair. It appears the concrete was poured when it was raining and was never covered, causing the surface to have water damage from the roof runoff. They came back and said this is just fine, they weren't going to cover this because it's only cosmetic. Really? I don't think this is acceptable for a new home and should not be like this. This is clearly shoddy workmanship. They don't stand behind their work or warranty. See photo.
