We were one of the unfortunate people that had flood damage due to Hurricane Harvey. End result of…read morethe flooding was that we had to rebuild the first floor of our home. We opted to use the opportunity to do a little remodeling work in the process. Kaleidoscope came recommended by my neighbor across the street who had already started his rebuilding project. I talked to Jamie from Kaleidoscope as well as two other contractors to secure bids. Kaleidoscope came in cost competitive, but more importantly I felt more comfortable with Jamie than with other contractors. Jamie spent much more time working through the options with me, explained everything clearly and generally gave me much more confidence that this wasn't going to be one of those projects where I felt frustrated and disappointed at the end and was in the dark on what was going on or where I'd constantly have to chase after and push the contractor. That proved to be an accurate expectation throughout the process. While it wasn't a remodeling we would have chosen to take on, it was a good experience. Jamie was always available to talk, work through things, talk through alternatives, talk through costs of different options and I found him to be extremely flexible. His team was very professional, got work done efficiently and did a good job. Where sub-contractors came into play, given strong demand for workers I knew going in that there might be delays or other issues. Any time contractor availability became a challenge, Jamie always had a secondary plan ready to be implemented and everything moved along pretty smoothly. In the end, we had to slow down the project on our end as our insurance adjuster was slow and it began to look likely we'd be finished before ever receiving a flood insurance check. While I'm sure he would have liked to press forward and finish the work, he was more than happy to slow things down and time completion to where we wouldn't be put under a financial squeeze. Since completion, as you'd expect we have had a couple of things pop up and Jamie has dealt with them immediately and resolved the issue. He didn't just disappear once the job was done, he's been available to handle issues as well as to provide advice on things unrelated to the job. The experience was for us so positive that when we needed to tear our our walkway and replace it later on in the year, we went straight to Jamie and were again happy with the results.

While our project faced many challenges, all throughout the process, Jamie was a rock. He produced…read moreour goals of a beautiful home with clean lines and high levels of energy efficiency. In his no-nonsense way, he worked through various challenges in the original architect plans and the trials that the city presented. He was in constant contact with us regarding progress and clarifications, and finished our new home in time for our move-in date. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting a competent, knowledgeable builder.

I have been working with Miel Construction for a little over the past year. After a great…read moreexperience renovating my home's master bathroom, I've had them back to handle a home office renovation as well as a powder room renovation thus far. To share a few thoughts: - My home has an odd layout, mixing open-concept with split-level, so rooms do not begin and end in conventional places. This leads to odd requests on projects (e.g. "paint half of this wall"). Miel has been extremely understanding of the house, which has helped me tackle projects in a way that works with my budget. - Texts during the week always have very timely responses, and work is stood behind in the event of a small goof here and there. - As someone who enjoys DIY projects and is very invested in the materials and design choices I make, Miel has been extremely accomodating to develop quotes where I provide various materials (door hardware, marble, etc.). That allows me to get exactly the look I want, without needing to be my own contactor. Five stars does not suggest that there has never been any mistakes ever. Small things are bound to happen here and there, just as I'm sure they would with any contractor. I do think I have a five star partnership with Miel, and when issues arise, I can count on them to be resolved in a reasonable manner. I look forward to more future projects with Miel.

Before choosing Daniel as my contractor, I was very nervous being that it was my first time…read moreremodeling and I've heard horror stories about contractors. But trust me when I say I had nothing to worry about. Daniel and his team did an excellent job at remodeling my two-story property that required some demolition, full interior painting, exterior power washing, new flooring, and more. They went above and beyond! The house looks fresh and almost brand new! He's very communicative, responsive, honest, straightforward, and easy to work with, which I highly value. Not every business person is like that. I also admire that he was always available to answer any question I asked. (And I had a lot.) He did certain things that I wouldn't even know that needed to be fixed or replaced. Learned a lot throughout the entire process. Also, I love that he's like a one-stop shop. He provides almost every service you can think of for a house rehab. His crew were all professional and nice. Very pleased that I chose him to do my house remodel. I hope to use him in the future and will refer others to him.

Outstanding Handyman - Highly Recommended!…read more I live in Crosby, Texas, and had a tough time finding a reasonably priced handyman. After doing some searching, Danny was one of the first to call me back. His rates were fair, and I decided to go with him to install a ceiling fan, mount a TV, and install a bathroom cabinet. I'm so glad I trusted my instincts--Danny did an outstanding job. I actually received another quote that was about $20 cheaper, but I've learned the hard way that sometimes trying to save a buck ends up costing more in the long run. That definitely wasn't the case with Danny. His work was thorough, neat, and professional. He even stayed longer than he originally estimated to make sure everything was done right. I voluntarily gave him a little extra because he truly earned it--and honestly, I wish I could've given him more. He was worth every penny. I didn't have the lightbulbs needed for the ceiling fan installation, and without hesitation, Danny offered to come back on Sunday after church to finish the job. Thankfully, my daughter was able to run to Walmart and grab what we needed while he completed the other tasks. It just goes to show how committed he is to his work and making sure his customers are satisfied. Danny is a rare find these days--reliable, honest, skilled, and courteous. He'll definitely be my go-to handyman from now on. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality work at a fair price.

Definitely DO NOT recommend. I hired him because he said he had capacity and it would be ~2 weeks…read more It took them over 2 months to finish with numerous issues and added costs. Rudy sold his services as a General Contractor but didn't do anything to actually manage the project other than organize some subcontractors. I had to PM most of it myself. He passed on his subcontractors' pricing without ever questioning it. He brought down his quotes several thousand dollars after I called different things into question. He did nothing to educate me on things that needed to be done such as sealing the marble tiles on the shower floor. I spent $25k on a bathroom renovation and the shower floor looks like crap after just a few weeks. Spare yourself and hire a different contractor! Who knows what it'll cost me now to fix it, but it won't be with Rudy.

Communication is their downfall - from the time I ordered and was told to expect it to the actual…read moretime of delivery (delivered way later than they first said they would); to them confusing me with another customer; and to having sent a different brand of materials on the day the products were installed. In any business, I expect complete transparency and they have fallen short on that. If my husband didn't pay attention to details, we wouldn't have known they had given us materials different from what we had actually ordered. If we didn't call them out on it, they probably would've never told us about it either. Another thing is, when they sent us a quote, it included removal of the carpets. When I told them that we had already removed the carpets and staples, they still did not adjust the price. They came back and just said that the original quote was already "discounted". They never mentioned which one was discounted from the previous quote. We asked them about it and nothing specific was being said about which item was actually "discounted". Again, a flaw in the communication chain. On the day of installation, even though the installers did a good job, it would've helped a lot of one of them can actually speak and understand English. They had the radio blaring. I had asked them to turn it down but I don't think they even understood what I'm saying. My husband works from home and is having conference calls all day and I'm homeschooling my kids while I'm working on my desk. And these guys doesn't seem to mind talking loudly to each other and crank up their radio. To the owner, please look into this as not all the residents you service are Spanish-speaking. I didn't want to ruffle feathers and didn't want them to take it out on me and do a poor job if I call them out, so I sent my kids outside. It's a hassle, to say the least. As much as I hate giving this kind of review and rating, I'm also obligated to speak out the truth as it is. And I hope positive changes will come out of this review.

We chose Nash remodeling after extensive research and a long interviewing process. Based on the experience I had, I can say that they are one of the best remodeling companies in Houston. Their price fell in the middle range of all the companies we got quoted from. They also provided us design ideas during initial consultation. Ruben was very attentive to our needs and spent extra time to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. He even accommodated our design change after half of the bathroom tiles were completed. They worked long hour right before holiday to insure project was completed on time. Nash remodeling team did wonderful clean-up jobs daily and at the end of the project. They even cleaned up the areas outside their project areas. Now we have two elegant bathrooms that fit our style and budget and the amazing and beautiful kitchen that we love.

It was so beautiful, but the walls just didn't sit well with me. The colors didn't pop. I contacted a company my friend told me about first because she had been using them for years.

I was fed up and contacted T&J Renovations after a quick google search. I sent them a message to get a quote and got a response within 5 minutes. They came out the same day to look over everything and we scheduled something for the following day.
