A&M Remodeling Co

It was a wonderful experience. Martin is truly a gentleman and professional. He made sure everything was perfect. They even did extra work they weren't contracted for. Couldn't ask for a better contractor.

Our bathroom remodel couldn't have gone better. After meeting with Martin to discuss the job and get an estimate, I got the feeling that we would be in good hands. The estimate was fair and reasonable, but more importantly, Martin has integrity and truly wants his customers to be happy. He is honest and patIent and very detail oriented. Throughout the project, he offered us a lot of good advice and gave us some very helpful suggestions. He really went above and beyond, such as meeting us at the store a couple of times to answer questions and to help pick out tile and flooring, etc. As a matter of fact, I mentioned that my toilet was running, and Martin took a moment of his time to fix it for me, no charge. Throughout the job, any concern that I had was taken care of immediately. I even changed my mind a few times about what I wanted and Martin had no problem accommodating me...cheerfully! He even offered for his crew to keep an eye on my ill husband so that I could run out for supplies. Martin kept in constant communication with his crew. The crew did an excellent job and the bathroom remodel looks beautiful. They take pride in their work and are very hardworking, trustworthy and punctual, along with being extremely polite. They always did a great job cleaning up at the end of each day. One of them even offered to shovel the snow off of our back steps. Things went so well, that we just hired Martin again to remodel another bathroom, install laminate in a bedroom, along with doing drywall work, painting, and installing windows and door casing. We made one of the best decisions when we decided to hire Martin and his crew from A & M Remodeling Co. Give him a call, you won't regret it!

The room looks great! Martin and his team were professional, always on time and completed in the exact time frame he estimated. The crew cleaned up after themselves and were very professional. When we needed to do a little extra work (take down ceiling) he called right away to discuss it. Martin stopped in to check his crew and called us each night to see if things were doing well. We were going through a very high stress time and Martin and his crew made this work very easy and low stress-which we really appreciated! We will definitely hire again!

A&M did a very nice job. Martin was very accommodating regarding scheduling and I was pleased they could come to do the work so soon after receiving the quote. I have non-standard angles in my townhome and they did a great job with all of the heights and angles.

Great - the finished product is beautiful, Martin and team were easy to work with and provided excellent communication and follow up.

Called A&M and spoke to Martin who was very accommodating with my schedule to come and survey the work being request. Martin arrived as scheduled about a week later on time and ready with photos of his work related to flooring installations. He provided me advice regarding my material selections and made recommendations on where I could purchase the materials for less. The following day I received and email with a quote for work, very reasonable. I returned the signed agreement and deposit to hold my scheduled date. During the next couple of weeks leading up to the commencement of the work, I periodically reached out to Martin to ask questions about materials, quantity, etc. He was very accommodating when I had a minor water repair that was schedule during our originally agreed upon start date. He worked around the other trade and went right back to work after they had completed. He had two guys show up the first day on time at 8am, to tear out all the old flooring, removed all the debris and left the site in good condition. The second day, three guys were on the job ready to install the laminate flooring and begin the tile work. By the third day they had 60% of the flooring down and well on their way. His crew as very professional and polite. On the last day, his crew stay late to finish the job, left the space vacuumed and clean. They were sure to cover the door ways to contain the dust from the tile cutting, I was very happy with their work. They took pride in what they did and although they finish a couple days early, they didn't rush through the details, very efficient. I would definitely hire him for my next project!

Fantastic! After contacting A&M, Martin came out the next day to discuss and survey the project. I wasn't sure if the ceiling needing repairing or replacing. It was determined that there were 3 areas where the plaster was sagging significantly and replacement was the safest option. Shortly after Martin left, he called me with a detailed quote, which was very reasonable. He also emailed the quote to me. I immediately had him schedule the job, and he and his crew were there 2 days later at 8AM as agreed. Doorways in the room were closed off with plastic to retain the dust. Three men removed all the plaster up to the crown molding, retaining the lathe. Drywall was installed, taped, and mudded same day. One person returned the second day to sand, prime, and paint. Following that, the ceiling light was reinstalled. Also, the entire area was washed and cleaned. The work done reflects pride in workmanship. The ceiling is now perfectly smooth and even. The paint job is excellent. This was done in a rental unit, and the tenant is very happy with the result. She commented on how beautiful the ceiling is (like "new"), and the neat and clean condition the room and apartment was left in, I already have plans for more jobs in the building since Martin's crew has other remodeling talents (floor refinishing, installing tile floor, painting.) Rating overall: A+++

Martin is a dream contractor to work with and so is his work crew! He is unbelievably organized and responsive. He came out to review the job and within a day shared a clear and easy to understand excel break-down of the work to be completed and the cost. We put a small deposit down and were ready to start. Martin is very clear on timing and was able to work with us to accomodate our tight timeline for painting before our furniture arrived. On the first morning Martin and his crew met with me at the house. He walked everyone through the project. The attention to detail was incredible. Martin noted several areas where better patching was needed (especially where we removed glued on mirrors). In a few spots I told him it was fine, and he ended up doing it for free because he genuinely wanted everything done right and my husband and I to love it! After the first walls were painted we ended up needing to expand the scope of work to paint the baseboards, window trim, crown moulding, and ceiling. Martin knew we were on a very tight schedule and was able to accomodate painting all of these in a timely fashion. Again he was very communicative on price and timing. His staff is fantastic as well! The painters did one of the best jobs I have ever seen. They were polite, cleaned up at the end of the day, incredibly professional, and did a beautiful job. Martin either stopped by every day or checked in with me via text or call. I can't recommend them enough! We are going to do a kitchen and bathroom remodel soon and will be using them again without question. Martin's organization, responsiveness, and genuine desire to do right by both his clients and his staff makes him an A+ contractor and an A+ person!

I couldn't be happier. Mr Nevarez and his crew are wonderful to work with. I can be picky but everything was done above my expectations. The job was done sooner than anticipated, the work was exceptional and all done for a fair price. I have already scheduled in A&M for another upcoming project.

I gave Mr. Nevarrez the ability to pick the paint and surprise me with a more modern color. He did a fantastic job selecting the paint, and provided the home with a more up to date look. I truly was in awe in what he selected.

I have used A&M Remodeling for my basement and since they did an amazing job I hired Mr. Martin Nevarrez to repair my kitchen. He provided us with an estimate for our kitchen and he made sure we stayed within the budget. I have heard horror stories of how dusty it gets to repair the kitchens but A&M and company made sure that they contained all the dust within one area and cleaned after the repairs. Workers were very detailed with the repairs and remodeling. We decided to replace the light fixture which they did upon request. They were very flexible and very polite. I felt comfortable leaving the workers alone in the home while they made the repairs. They were very polite and honest which is a plus for me. They were flexible and very careful with the clean up since I have a dog I didn't want my dog to lick or step on anything fragile. When we were selecting out flooring and back splash Martin was very patient with walking us through the stores and provided us with suggestions, but did not pressure us into getting anything specific. I think we spent a good hour in the store making the right selection. When the work was done we were able to see on spot that was not painted properly and we called Martin and he came back to make the repair and even installed our stove after the company who was to install our stove never came. I highly recommend A&M Remodeling and Mr. Martin Nevarrez they are very honest, clean and reliable. I was left a very happy customer. I would definitely used them again.

This renovation could not have gone better, and it is all thanks to A&M Remodeling! The owner and general contractor, Martin Nevarrez, is fantastic. He's very organized, detail-oriented, patient, and honest; he communicated every day during the project (either in person or by phone) to address any questions or concerns that might arise (no issue was too small for his attention); he anticipated potential problems before they arose, and was an overall pleasant person to work with. His team was equally great: they were polite, punctual, and hardworking. Moreover, they were meticulous and careful when it came to their work. For example, the tile was carefully installed, and it looks absolutely amazing. Martin and his team obviously take pride in a job well done. Moreover, they finished ahead of schedule. We've worked with a few different contractors since we bought our house, and A&M Remodeling was by far and away the best. To say we were pleased with the work is an understatement. We thought A&M Remodeling did a wonderful job, and we would not hesitate to use them again in the future.

The owner contacted me several months later after having seen my review. He stated that he never received my original email and photos. He said, he guessed that he should have followed up with me and he seemed sincere.

Found A&M Remodeling Co. on Angie's List and was impressed with the good reviews and the bio of the owner. Was able to quickly contact Martin and arranged appointment for estimate and discussion of project. We liked him and hired him to do our work. He was always available and very conscientious about keeping us updated on how the work was going. This was especially appreciated (and important) since we had already moved out of state and needed to rely on him to oversee the project and assure us that the work was being done well, in a timely and efficient manner. His work exceeded our expectations. Would hire again if necessary and recommend to others.

Martin is great to work with. I've used him several times on many different projects. His work is top notch and he completes the work in a reasonable amount of time. His guys are all courteous. Martin is very helpful in making decisions. He is also 100% reliable. This was a big job, an interior remodel of a large 5 bedroom house. Everything went smoothly. Thanks A & M for a job well done!

After having A & M Remodeling work on our basement the rest of the house looked like it needed a little help. We had them come and paint the rest of the house. No different than the first project we did with Martin, he was on top of things and was easy to get a hold of. He was very helpful in educating us in regards to what type of paints to use in all the different areas. We even took some suggestions on colors that matched with our home. It is apparent that he really cares about what he does.The workers where very organized, clean, and respectful . They worked very hard to meet our deadline with the Holidays coming. Their is no doubt Martin is our to go guy from now on.

I emailed Martin with a question about his services and he emailed me back the next day. I appreciated his responsiveness through email. Unfortunately, when we spoke on the phone I found him to be offensive. After briefly explaining what I needed done, Martin asked where I was located. When I expressed where I live, he said that I lived an hour and a half away and he would not come to my area. He did apologize for not asking my address first. I was very surprised as I know from the band of neighbors that he has done work very close to me and they rated him as an 'A'. I realize that he is coming from the north side of Chicago to the south side, but the travel time is actually less then an hour. I found it offensive when he continued to say with a chuckle, "good luck with that." Sometimes it is not what you say, but how you say it. Sometimes those extra comments do not need to be said at all. Later in the afternoon he sent me an email reiterating that he does not service my area. I did not understand the need for the email as he already communicated that rudely. I suggest that Martin update his Angie's List Service Area to reflect the fact that he only wants to work on the north side or list specific communities that he is willing to work in so he does not waste anyone's time.

After we got water in our basement. We contacted A & M Remodeling. Martin was very helpful. This was not a planed project so we needed all the help we could get. Martin walked us threw the whole project and Alleviated much of the stress. The workers where always on time and very courteous. They always kept the work area very neat. Martin was always available to discuss all the details and was on top of things. He even helped us pick out colors and other materials. We where not happy about the water coming in our basement but we are certainly happy with the final outcome. We will certainly call A & M Remodeling co. for any future projects and we most definitely recommend them.

From start to finish, all improvements went without a hitch. Martin and his guys Cesare and Luis ,were always on time very punctual,which is a rare trait in this business. Also they clean up I would highly recommend A & M Remodeling ,they're very good at what they do. Before they leave for the day they clean up all the work area's. Neatness counts Ray

Martin was great to work with. He told me right up front that it would take longer then the amount that I bought on Angie's list but he would prorate it to the same price by the hour. Martin and Caesar (the installer) came over and got right to work. When they first arrived, they noticed that the tile that I bought was very thin. Since this was what I had, we went ahead with the installation. Since the tile kept breaking, I had to order a few more pieces in order to finish the job. Caesar did a great job. No one has noticed any cracks in the tile and I can only see them because I know they are there. The backsplash really ties the whole kitchen together and I'm glad I hired A&M Remodeling. I am looking at redoing the bathrooms in the future and will turn to them when the time comes. I would highly recommend them.

Martin redid the floors in our attic and in the ground-level apartment of our house with various materials we had requested (laminate, bamboo, marble, and regular tiles) and all the floorslook gorgeous. He painted the walls, installed vanity and toilet in the bathroom, changed outside doors, rewired some electrical lines, fixed outside staircases and awnings, etc. We were so happy after he worked in the attic that we asked him a little bit later to redo the floors in the ground-level apartment of the same house. Martin was extremely responsive, he stayed in touch with us on a regular basis (phone, text messages, emails), keeping us updated when we were out of town. We have worked with many contractors, but never felt so confident that the work would be done on time within the price of the estimate and without any surprises afterwards. It has been wonderful working with Martin, he was always available for some extra help and willing to come back if we had any questions or if something needed some adjustment. We wish all contractors were like him, responsible, trustworthy, and willing to go the extra mile to make sure his clients are happy with his work.

I had a great experience with Martin and crew. I've had several different remodels over the years, some good some really bad. This one goes in the I'm gonna use them again category. Trust me when I say that very few go into that category. I had very little stress during this installation and non of it came from Martin or his employees.

Martin and his team did a terrific job. They arrived at the exact time that they said which was very important to us b/c we plan these types of jobs around our busy schedule. The job finished in less time than we expected and all of Martin's team were incredibly professional including bringing their own drop cloths and cleaning up thoroughly after themselves. I bought the wrong amount of tile and Martin agreed to have his team come back out to finish the job when the remaining tile arrived at no extra charge. I would strongly recommend him and his team to anyone in the future. -Chris

Martin and team were amazing! Martin worked with us to make sure that we had good information and helped us choose colors and tiles that would work with our style. The team was on time every day, working and cleaned up leaving no mess and keeping my kitchen and living room spotless. When Martin noticed an issue with the way the tiles on the walls were progressing, and at no additional charge to us - he had the team tear out the tiles that had been hung, drove to Madison to get replacements, and got the tiles installed and project completed on time. We didn't even know until he mentioned it to us a few days later. That is A+ service. We're definitively going to use A&M for future projects.

Martin and his guys did an amazing job with our bathroom remodel. They were punctual, professional, and clearly perfectionists as evidenced by the precise work they did with the tile. They cleaned up at the end of each day which I thought went above and beyond. Martin stopped by every day to supervise and make sure things were going well. We will absolutely hire them for future projects.
