After not hearing from the owner for a number of months, I began working with another contractor.Finally the owner, called and said,"It's probably too late to work with you." He then went on to explain that his computer had crashed. My response was to indicate that in fact, he had my telephone number and address and lived a few minutes away, so that he could have easily contacted me. My computer crashes from time to time and the issue is easily resolved. Certainly lacking in professionalism, therefore I would not recommend Home Sweet Improvement.
Description of Work: Met with the owner a number of times and he indicated that he was interested in working with me on a number of renovation projections.

I would highly recommend Lior because of his professionalism and honesty. He told me flat out that 1) he was very busy right now and 2) he didn't think we would need to hire him to get the work done. I greatly appreciate that honesty. He took the time to point me in the right direction of people who could help me and even sent me an email with the information of these people. He was not interested in trying to rip me off and went above and beyond to help me. If we do more work in the future and he can help I will not hesitate to contact him again.
Description of Work: I was looking for a GC for our kitchen remodel.

Overall, I am thrilled with how the room turned out and with the service I received from Lior and his team. They were friendly, knowledgeable, prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful as this was my first major renovation project. Lior walked me through the design and purchasing process, worked with me to keep costs within my budget, kept me up to speed on progress, and overall delivered on all my requests! I would definitely recommend Sweet Home Improvements to anyone needing assistance with renovations great or small.
Description of Work: Lior helped me renovate my kitchen in a the new condo I purchased. It had not been updated in years and needed to have the layout adjusted along with electrical and plumbing moved, hardwood floors polished and resealed, new cabinets, new counter, new sink, painting, and lighting.

The job began with a walkthrough and complete estimate. Lior provided a portfolio of tips, helpful suggestions, and we liked the work shown on his website. He was also recommended by neighbors who had several successful projects completed by Sweet Home Improvements. His pricing was realistic and we liked his recommendations for fixtures we couldn't decide on. He also came along to help select granite tops. He was on-site everyday and his people were very professional and clean. He kept us updated throughout the whole process letting us know what was next, any unexpected issues that had arisen during the day, and how they were fixing it. Altogether, the whole process took about 2 months, with actual demo and construction about 3 weeks. After the nice job on the bathroom we added on painting the hallways which he was kindly able to accommodate with only a few days. The only sour note occurring during the job involved an arrogant city inspector that wished to interpret the code for smoke detectors beyond how I, the contractor, or other city officials enforced it. We ended up wiring the whole house for smoke and CO2 so we're safer for it all but I wish that we had more choice in the matter. Lior dealt with the inspector well despite the rude behavior of the inspector.
Description of Work: Full gutting and remodel of master bath. Also painting of 2 floors of hallways. The bathroom included new vanity, granite counter, heated floors, medicine cabinet, toilet, shower shall with custom tiled walls and base, bench seat, exhaust vent, laundry chute, and paint. Painting the hallways and stairwell including patching up several access holes, caulking, and removing old fixtures. We choose two complimentary colors for the top and bottom of the stairway wall.

From start to finish and inbetween the work and the workers were outstanding. The work area was cleaned up after each day as we were living in the home at the time, something my son could not believe they did. I kept adding to the work as we progressed from room to room and everything was done thoughtfully and without being rushed. Lior Bega and his crew were extremely good to work with, I would highly recommend Sweet Home Improvements as an excellent contractor who does excellent work and coordinates well with all suppliers. Just as an example, his coordination with the granite countertop fabricator was beyond the call of duty, and made the process so much better for me and for him. He also intervened with the cabinet supplier when I was unhappy with their time frame and made it happen sooner. All of these interventions added up to a warm relationship that will be long lasting.
Description of Work: Kitchen completely gutted, new floor, cabinets, walls, back splash, appliances installed. Partial wall in dining area removed to make one large room. Basement family room painted and carpeted. New plumbing installed in all 3 bathrooms, new shower installed in basement bathroom. Electrical work upgraded throughout the home, new light fixtures installed throughout, including complex chandeliers and recessed lighting. Entire home painted except for 2 bedrooms, difficult foil wallpaper removed from bathrooms, new bifold closet door fabricated and installed. New exterior doors installed, new screen doors installed . New windows installed, including 3 bay and 1 garden, all ordering was done by Sweet Home Improvements and installation was coordinated with them. Excellent referrals were given for purchase of carpeting once the initial work was completed and for a computer work station.

They were professional, had polite workers, were organized, didn't leave messes and clean up after themselves. They were on time and we didn't have any problems with them at all. We checked around and they were competitively priced. I don't they were the cheapest, but that is not always the way to go. We think they were fair. For the quality work we received, we didn't feel like we overpaid. You get what you pay for. We will probably use him again when we redo some bathrooms.

Everything went better than expected. Sweet Home Improvements was professional, and the quality of their work is excellent. I have had several people request the company's information after seeing the bathroom specifically. Leor did a fabulous job of walking me through the process despite my phobia of home renovation.
Description of Work: They remodeled the basement and bathroom, and they painted the dining room and living room.

Excellent communication - I was called back promptly. Was able to communicate via phone and e-mail. Very professional - The job started when he said the job would be started and the job was finished in the time expected. Quality work - We were very happy with the quality of the work. He was able to patch our water damaged walls rather than pulling out dry wall and replacing it all. He was able to perfectly match the paint color to the existing wall color. All the jobs were done very well and time was taken to make sure they were done right. What I like about Lior Bega of Sweet Home Improvements is that he takes the time to look at a project and comes up with the most appropriate fix (our house requires that thoughtfulness). We have used him on another smaller project as well and would definitely consider using him for a bigger project.
Description of Work: Main services provided included: Repaired water damaged walls (plaster & paint). Existing wall color was matched perfectly. Screen door was installed. Basement steps repaired. And a few other odd jobs in the house.

They're incredibly reliable, patient and go out of your way to stay in your budget and it still looks good. Very neat and cleaned up after themselves. Very efficient and timely as well. They also communicate well with you if there are obstacles in the way.
Description of Work: Gutted 2 bathrooms and kitchen; painted.
