Everything was done with attention to detail, and to the highest standards. Homewise is great to work with. In a year or two, we will be moving out. We plan to hire Homewise to come in and replace all of our lighting, our closet fixtures, and paint the entire condo. We haven't decided yet if we will replace our flooring, but if we do, we will hire them for that as well.
Description of Work: We chose Homewise Remodelers to do complete make-overs of two bathrooms and our kitchen. We looked at 3 contractors from Angie’s list. The one who came in the cheapest, was also the one who took the fewest measurements, an NO pictures! The one who was the most expensive was trying to push me to go very upscale for all my remodeling. We don’t live in a luxury building, and we didn’t want luxury finishes. We wanted it to look really nice, and be done on a reasonable budget. Homewise took lots of pictures, took lots of measurements, had great suggestions, and their estimate was in the middle. We chose them. Mirek, the contractor was great! He had excellent suggestions. I wanted to paint my kitchen cabinets and put on new hardware (to minimize expense, and maximize my budget). Mirek talked me into new cabinets, and he was absolutely right! My new cabinets MAKE my kitchen. Mirek brought cabinet samples to my home, along with granite and quartz samples. So, it was easy to walk around my kitchen and look at the samples in the various lighting to see how they would look in the room. I am SO glad I got the cabinets, and Mirek made it so easy. The cabinets were VERY reasonably priced and are of very good quality. I was also able to look at the quartz samples in my bathrooms (we decided on quartz rather than granite). It’s very helpful to have the samples brought to your home to make this important decision, and Mirek had plenty to choose from. (Mirek doesn’t sell the quartz/granite, but he has a relationship with someone who does). Mario, our main “artisan” was truly an artist. He took such pride in everything he did! His tile work is gorgeous! He is a “Jack of all trades”, and a master of all! He and Mirek also worked around problems with creativity and patience. For instance, in one of my bathrooms, I wanted to take out the tub and put in a stand-up shower with glass doors. After removing the tub, we discovered an odd placement of a pipe which seemed to preclude putting in the shower floor pan. The pipe supplied water to the units above me, and could not be moved. Mario and Mirek put their heads together and came up with a solution. They put in a concrete frame to raise the floor pan just a couple of inches, so that the pan could be put in without disturbing the plumbing. They also worked around problems with my medicine cabinets. I bought ones which could be recessed or wall mounted, but I wanted them recessed. They could not be, again, because of odd placement of pipes which supplied water to units above me. Since they couldn’t be recessed, the lighting I bought to go above them, weren’t going to stick out far enough from the wall to supply light to the mirrors. So, Mario built soffits over the cabinets. When the lights were mounted on the soffits, they looked great, and supplied the light to the mirrors appropriately. Mario put down floor coverings to protect our wood floors outside the bathrooms and kitchen, and cleaned up nicely every day. Most days he put in a little extra time. He was also willing to pick up supplies (toilets, tiling, etc.) at local stores. His attitude and flexibility were wonderful. Their plumbing and electrical work were flawless. I cannot say enough about how great their work was, how well they managed problems, and how nice Mario and Mirek were to deal with. They came in on time, on budget, and did beautiful work. You cannot go wrong with Homewise.
