I love my new Master Bath! This is the second time I have hired Ryan Reph for a major remodeling project, and I couldn't be happier. All the vendors he sent me to were top notch, the team was always on time. Communication was awesome, and I always knew who was going to be there, and what they would be doing. Ryan has been doing this a LONG time, and while he strongly feels that the customer is always right, he is also more than willing to break down the pros and cons of any decision. You make the decision, but Ryan is more than able to give you the benefit of his experience. I love the quality of the materials and the workmanship, and the value for the product cannot be beat. Clean up was very thorough, and they sent a man back just to go over any small items after the job was done (I was hard pressed to find any). I can't really think why I would hire anyone else. read more

Please note that this review is only based on the design and consultation steps of a bathroom renovation we tried to do with Ryan Reph Remodeling. We contacted Selwa Reph to come to our house and start the process for giving us an estimate to renovate a 10'x12' bathroom. While discussing what we wanted, I pointed out that because it will be the most used bathroom in the house, we want it to be more than just a basic job and were willing to spend some money to use higher-end materials and to please reflect that in the price estimates for the contract. I asked the same of her that I did the other companies who came in....please don't quote us the lowest price estimate for materials....we're not buying plain white tile from Home Depot, so please estimate for midrange materials so if we have the budget we can go for even nicer stuff, but don't budget for the low-end materials. We have not done a renovation like this before, so we had no idea what cheaper materials cost vs more expensive ones, so we were relying on her expertise. When we showed a picture of a shower with glass tiles, we asked Selwa how those materials would change the prices quoted in the contract and she said it would be a difference of a few hundred dollars. We signed with Reph Remodeling and they gave us a price range of $8/SqFt for tiles to work with. They also sent the specs for the job to Architectural Tile and Ceramic in Vienna. When my wife and I showed up there to select tile, grout, flooring, etc., out of all the selections in that store, there was about 1/4th of one small bin that let us pick from about 20 basic porcelain tiles in that price range (see picture). With such a pathetic selection, we went ahead and picked out tiles we liked in the $16 price range. What had been an $1,850 allowance ballooned to a $5,920 estimate from Architectural Tile and Ceramic. And that amount was based on the contractors discounted prices! When I spoke with Selwa Reph about her estimate for $8/SqFt, she defended it and said I should have been able to find something in my price range there but said she would call the salesperson and review the quote they had provided us. She also claimed she specified the "difference of a few hundred dollars" for glass tiles was only in reference to the construction cost...not the added cost of the tiles which she did not mention or use to adjust her estimate of $8/SqFt....why didn't she add in the change in the cost to materials as well? When we went to another tile shop to redo the entire process of selecting materials, the manager of the store immediately caught an error on the original quote from the other store that added on over $1,300 to the quote; calling for a whole palate of 50 lb bags of thinset......56 bags in all....2,800 pounds of thinset for a 10'x12' bathroom. The other tile shop said we would need 4 bags at most. The total from Architectural Tile and Ceramic was still way over Selwa's estimate of $1,850, but a huge glaring error that should stand out to a company that works with this all day every day. When I asked Selwa about this error, she admitted that she did not actually review the order with the sales rep and just never caught the error. It was after bringing this issue up along with pointing out my displeasure about the lowball pricing estimate that Selwa Reph decided to terminate the contract and returned our deposit. While they get great reviews and I have no basis for commenting on the demo & construction team, they are not cheap so we expected better results at all stages of our interactions with them. If you decide to work with them, just be skeptical of the materials pricing unless you already know exactly what you're going to have them install and then make sure you have someone else review the order for materials accuracy. I will note that the contractor we wound up going with wound up costing less, immediately verified the estimates from the tile supplier and went over our selections to make sure he understood what we wanted so he could give us the most accurate estimate which wound up being within $150 of the final total for materials. read more

This is actually the second and third times we have used Ryan Reph Remodeling. They have always completed our projects on time and exceeded our expectations. Their crews clean up well each day and do their best to disrupt our routine as little as possible. We have also appreciated that we can select and purchase materials on our own, but still rely on Ryan and Selwa for recommendations and design advice. We have been delighted with our finished bathrooms and look forward to working with Ryan Reph Remodeling again in the future. read more

This firm had great ratings but our experience was quite different on a kitchen remodel and new wood flooring. After accepting the proposal, a mistake in the firm's pricing of wood flooring was discovered which resulted in us having to scurry to find a new vendor. The kitchen remodel culminating with the misalignment of the sink, faucet, cabinets, and countertop with the window. This is something the project manager should have ensured came together correctly but failed to do. The only solution would be a complete redo. The flooring team also had to return 3 times for what should have been guided by its own internal quality control. What was supposed to be a showcase remodel turned out to be an expensive embarrassment. Based on our unfortunate experience, we cannot in good conscience recommend this firm. read more

Ryan Reph Remodeling has completed three major projects for me in the last three years. The first project involved the installation of a new oversize walk-in basement shower and renovation of the adjacent basement laundry room. I was so pleased with the quality of the work, the following year I hired them to renovate the master bathroom, original to 1958 when the house was built. A complete tear-out was required and new "everything" was installed - inside and outside the bathroom walls. Even though I selected moderately priced materials, the end product was stunning. I recently moved into another older house and they are almost finished with two projects there. One involved the construction of a main level laundry/mud room with an entrance from the garage into the house and the other was the installation of a wet bar/kitchenette in the basement rec room. Like the previous projects, the end result of these two projects is amazing. Within the next year or two I am hoping to renovate the basement bathroom in the new house and Ryan will, without doubt, be my contractor for that project as well. Before my first experience with Ryan, I had never hired a commercial contractor to do any work for me. I was fortunate to have a Dad who could do anything and do it beautifully. He and I were able to tackle all of my various home improvement projects. When I lost my Dad my home improvement projects were limited to various painting projects and small focused speciality projects (floor refinishing, replacement windows). I had heard horror stories from family and friends about working with contractors and simply didn't want to get involved in a major project where I had to rely on someone I didn't know. But the time came when I needed access to an ADA accessible shower so I turned to one of the online contractor referral services and "found" Ryan Reph Remodeling (RRR). I reached out to RRR and they contacted me almost immediately. Selwa came to my home, reviewed the scope of work and provided an estimate. Ryan followed up to walk through the project with me. I felt the estimate was fair, I was very comfortable with Selwa and Ryan, and after contacting the references they provided I signed a contract to have the work done. (Yes, RRR was the only contractor I contacted!). They have now done 3 projects for me and I can't imagine working with anyone else. I have worked with two of Ryan's crews. Both crews were very professional - skilled, knowledgeable and talented. Every worker Ryan has sent into my home has been polite, friendly and helpful. They show a great deal of respect for my home and use drop cloths, dust barriers and floor protectors while they work. At the end of each workday they clean up, put their tools and materials away and leave the house as livable as practical during a major construction project. Ryan gets all required permits in his name, his crew members are onsite to meet with the county building inspectors when they conduct the required inspections, and every inspection has passed on the first try. Selwa is a talented designer and she has developed contacts with a variety of suppliers who provide thoughtful help with material selections. Ryan and Selwa are both easy to work with and communication with them throughout the project is very efficient. I feel very fortunate that I "found" Ryan Reph Remodeling and I look forward to working with them on future home improvement projects. read more

Ryan Reph did a complete remodeling of two of our bathrooms. I could not be happier. Their proposal was by far the clearest. Their price was excellent. They did exactly what they promised. They helped out in several situations, such as a vanity arriving with a cracked top and helping us receive heavy deliveries even when they were not yet on site. All the problems and issues we found were promptly resolved. They cleaned up the area every single day which was really appreciated. Their people were all helpful and easy to work with. I could not have asked for more. read more

We were so impressed with them for our basement renovation a couple of years ago, it was difficult to even look at other estimates for our kitchen in 2015. We did get other estimates, but we once again went with Ryan and company. Selwa comes in with terrific ideas and listens very well to our needs, and the crew is very professional. read more

Ryan was almost never here. He stopped in a handful of times briefly and was nice enough. His crew worked hard, but there were several things they damaged and tried to simply clean up and leave w/o saying anything; i.e. dings in cabinets, walls; cut through the wall w/a saw into the pantry and living room; they left a home depot bucket full of water on our new wood floors and it leaked. They only came back to fix it after we complained and then simply tried to cover it with furniture markers and coloring instead of replacing the boards, which we insisted on in the end. Instead of using templates and levels to install cabinet handles, they eyeballed every one and several were so crooked they had to be redone and then we got pushback for asking for new cabinet faces that they screwed up by putting 2-3 holes in. They painted our master bath ceiling too fast and it bubbled. They did come back and repaint it, but used a different color, so now our ceiling is two-tone and will have to be repainted yet again. They installed a new toilet in our powder room so high even my 6'1" husband couldn't touch the ground, so that had to be taken out and repositioned. Worst of all, we bought body sprays for the master shower and several times reiterated we absolutely wanted them to work in conjunction w/the shower head. Not once did Ryan or his crew mention that wouldn't work unless we installed a second set of plumbing to manage the pressure, which we didn't find out until later, so now we have a shower and separate body sprays only that cannot ever work in tandem. They installed new counter tops in our kitchen, but then failed to reattach the dishwasher to anything, so it's left just wobbling around every time you push a button or close the lid. Too many more issues to list; my husband finally said to just stop asking them to fix things and he'd do it himself. It just wasn't worth the hassle of having them come back. Very disappointing experience. I would definitely not recommend them. read more
