The HomeWright, LLC

After interviewing several contractors to help us remodel our master bathroom, my husband and I selected Matt Wright of The Home Wright because his price was fair and we felt he was the most transparent with his numbers and setting expectations for the overall remodeling process. In fact, Matt came recommended to me by one of my friends as he had done two of their bathrooms and is now working on their kitchen. This was our first remodel and we needed some design help, which Matt and his vendors offered within the scope of the project cost. Our home work paid off as Matt came in "on time, on budget" on our master bath remodel and we absolutely LOVE our new bathroom! Matt and his guys/gals were so easy to work with, knew our project inside and out and provided excellent customer service. For example, our vanity/cabinet wasn't quite right upon installation, but Matt and his vendor replaced it immediately. Matt is friendly, courteous, respectful and we highly recommend him for any home improvement project!

It was great. They did a very good job.

This is the second time we've used The Homewright for renovation work. Both experiences have been wonderful. The owner, Matt Wright, is always true to his word, calls you back immediately when there are items to discuss, and has quality sub contractors performing their trades. Matt is not only is very knowledgeable with the construction phase, he also has a good eye for what works and what does not. Several times he made design recommendations which we ultimately ended up using, saving us money and time without sacrificing on the overall look of the room. We'd highly recommend Matt and his company for any renovation project.

Matt was really helpful and patient as we researched the best windows. He met with his window vendor and me to ensure all my questions were answered. The work started and finished exactly when Matt said it would and the work was done exceptionally well. His subcontractors were professional and timely as well. Matt was always available for questions when they arose. The outcome is amazing and we are so happy with the way the house looks!

This our third project with Matt. He never rushes you. He carefully worked with us to develop design plans (actual blue print drawings) for our screened porch and stamped concrete patio/sidewalk. He arranged for us to see an example screened porch similar to the one we were planning to confirm what we were doing. He arranged wood samples so we knew for sure what the porch interior would look like. Once plans were finalized, Matt arranged the necessary permit. Matt communicates often and clearly so we know what should be done when. Our project went very smooth. The porch was built using normal home construction methods including inserting the ridge beam INTO the house wall rather than using cheap brackets to attach it TO the house. All work is high quality with lots of attention to detail. For example, the ceiling is tongue and groove redwood; there are a couple of darker boards that became a stripe that carries up into the sky light opening and back out across the other side of the ceiling. Matt's crew does a great job picking up any mess. For the stamped concrete work, samples very made to show us the color and pattern to make sure it was what we want. After the intial set, we had a second set to confirm the colors were right. We were given a couple chances to make revisions to the layout of the concrete to make absolutely sure it was what we wanted. Be patient with stamped comcrete....it looks horrible the first night after it is poured, but looks great after they get to work with it the second day. Overall we have a gorgeous screened porch made with quality materials and finishes. We are extremely happen with our project.

This is our second large project with Matt and we doubt we'll use another remodeling contractor. Matt works within your budget and provides you with a detailed project plan. His vendors are easy to work with and provide great suggestions. He is punctual as are his subs - which is a rarity these days. We also appreciate Matt's professionalism in that he provides a daily update either via telephone or email. We are very satisfied with our project and already are looking forward to our next one.

When we purchased our home in 2011, we knew immediately that it would require a major renovation to improve the interior space. The previous owner had a very distinctive, what we would call "Hollywood glam" style that just wasn't our taste. There were black marble floors, large gold bathroom fixtures, opal tiles in the master bathroom, and roman columns lining the main hallway and dining room. The house was also very large with six bathrooms, a plethora of closets, but only had three bedrooms which made it impractical for family living. At this point, one could ask why we bought the house. The selling points were location and the outdoor space. The yard was very private with mature tress, an in-ground pool, and only 10 minutes from work.After living in the house for about nine months, we had a very clear idea of what needed to be done but were unsure of how to proceed. Should we start with a designer or just work with a contractor? Matt Wright, the owner of The HomeWright LLC, made that decision very easy for us. On our first visit, we knew immediately he would be able to handle not only the remodel but the design part too. After walking the space and listening to our ideas, Matt took about a week to draw up three different plans for the master bathroom and three plans for the hallway/bedroom/dining room remodel. On our second visit, we reviewed the plans, together made a few slight modifications to the selected ones, then were ready to move into the next phase.At this point, Matt very carefully spelled out the process he uses for pricing, product selection, subcontracting, and expected timeline for the work. What we found most impressive as the job progressed was that Matt honored every word he said in that meeting. There were no hidden costs, he was true to the timeline, all his subcontractors were extremely professional, and Matt was always available to answer any of our silly or not so silly questions. The whole process took approximately five monthly from first meeting to final walk-through. We loved the experience, absolutely love our "new home", and highly recommend The Homewright LLC to anyone who is planning a remodel.

As always with Matt, the project went as smoothly as possible for a remodel project. This is our fourth project with Matt and we are always extremely pleased with his responsiveness and ability to stay on schedule. Matt recognizes our wanting to stay within a budget and makes suggestions to accomplish this goal. Ultimately, it is always a very collaborative approach when working with Matt and we always feel comfortable communicating any concerns that might come up during the project. Matt is very prompt in addressing any concerns as they arise. In a nutshell, we absolutely love how the project turned out. Our goal was to get the best use out of the space we have, and with Matt's help and his talented subcontractors, it was a complete success!

I had seen the Homewright web site and loved the portfolio of jobs that they had previously done. I had already gotten two other estimates and was ready to use one of the other companies but liked his work so well I decided to get a third estimate - and I am glad I did! Matt Wright came out to the house and carefully reviewed the proposed job with us and gave us some ideas. He explained his process of estimating with costs and showing his margin separately so I knew exactly where I stood on price. He also explained how he would lay out a project schedule so we would know exactly who was going to be in our house each day and what they would be doing. We proceeded with getting an estimate and all three estimates were within a couple thousand dollars of each other. We decided to go with Matt because of his positive energy and process. We worked with Matt's vendors to pick out cabinets, fixtures and tile. They were all awesome and very helpful to work with. Matt would meet us there to assist in our choices. I'm glad he was there because he would point out things we wouldn't have thought about so I feel we made very informed choices. The job went very well and his crew was great. All very friendly and trustworthy. I didn't think twice about them being in our home if we weren't here. We did have a couple change requests (tile change, tub size) and countertop material and only the counterop impacted the schedule a couple days because of lead time. Matt kept us informed every step of the way and did what he said he would do. He would check in on a regular basis and make sure things were going well and to see if we had any questions. We were so happy with his work we had him repair a basement window. The job has since concluded and we love our new bathroom. I would definitely recommend HomeWright and will use Matt again for future jobs. Overall this was an awesome experience.

I was told it would take four weeks and that was exactly how long it really took. The workers were hear on time and when thet said they would be here they were. They took great strives to keep our house clean as they walked through to the bathroom area. Some even took off there shoes everytime they came in from outside which in some cases was numerous times. The workers were polite and went out of there way to please us even doing small things other than what they were hired to do. Matt Wright owner was here every day making sure the work was being done to perfection and keeping us informed. He explained everything and when it was not working he would correct or give us alternatives on how to correct it without increasing cost. Overall it was a great experience and our new bathroom is just beautiful, and we owe all our happiness to Matt Wright owner of Homewright LLC. They also replaced 80% of all our windows in our home and again total satisfaction. Botton line The Homewright owned by Matt Wright is a very wll managed company that prides itself in total client happiness. His associates are in the top caliber of their occupation and are skilled in client happiness also. It is amazing in how Matt has brought this team of professionals together. If you are looking at remodeling I highly recommend The Homewright.

We tried contacting this contractor multiple times about a kitchen remodel as well as a room addition. After multiple unreturned e-mails and calls we gave up.

Overall our remodeling project with The HomeWright went extremely well. The owner, Matt Wright, was great to work with from the initial consultation through to the final punch list.. The highlights included: Clear communication and progress made while my husband was out of town during the project. Comfort allowing my daughters to come home from school while work was in-progress. All workers and vendors were extremely professional, hardworking, and skilled in their trades. Stayed on time and within budget. Kept construction mess to a minimum and left things tidy each day. Planned work to be the least disruptive to family life as possible. Consulted me when appropriate to make decisions an choices. Able to problem solve and explain issues and solutions well. Great job keeping us informed. Great attention to details. Brought experience and knowledge to the project. We are so happy with our remodeling experience with Matt at The HomeWright that we've already recommended him to our neighbor.

Matt Wright is great to work with. He is knowledgeable and communicates well. Matt provides a detailed written proposal of what is going to be done including the materials to be used. He explains all of the details and clearly answered all my questions so that I fully understood all the work being done (I am detail oriented). Matt even tried to have the materials placed to be the least inconvenient to us as possible. The work crew is always prompt and picks up after themselves. The crew has great pride in the work they do and want to make sure the customer is happy. The painters even came on Saturday once to make sure all the trim was painted before the gutters and down spouts were installed and again to touch up a couple spots (including an edge he had to disassemble part of the door to get to). The work performed was all high quality. Throughout the construction Matt communicated with me so I knew what had been done and the plan going forward. I am very satisfied.

This was our second project with TheHomeWright. We chose Matt again because of our extreme satisfaction with our first remodel (master bath). He and his team are professional, efficient, skilled,honest and trustworthy. From start to finish Matt kept us informed of all aspects of the project. His calendar and estimates were right on! We are totally pleased with the results and wouldn't hesitate to use him again!

We had been tossing around the idea of remodeling our kitchen for about a year, but when we had water damage to our hardwood floor from ice damming, we decided that there would never be a better time for the remodel. We needed to have our hardwoods repaired, the drywall patched and painted, and a damaged window replaced. Since we were going to be deep into some major repair work, it made sense to work on the kitchen too. We didn't hesitate on whom we would have complete the job. Matt Wright helped us with our basement remodel and because it went so smoothly, he was our natural choice for this job as well. At our initial consultation, we told Matt that our overall goal was to make our kitchen seem larger. He gave us great ideas and suggestions. After finalizing our plans, we received Matt's detailed proposal for the project. Because we had received a quote from our insurance adjustor for the repair work, we were able to confirm that Matt's pricing was fair. Matt gave us a detailed schedule of what was to occur each day and it was amazing how closely he stuck to that schedule. And if there was a tweak here or there in the schedule, Matt always let us know ahead of time. Communication with his clients seems to be very important to Matt. We once had an experience with a builder where after we signed the contract, we never heard from him again. After signing we only met with his supervisors and workers. This was definitely not the case with The HomeWright. Matt was at our house checking on things at least once each day, and often, several times a day. And if we weren't at home when Matt was there, he would follow up with a phone call, text message, or email that same day. During the kitchen remodel, Matt discovered some insulation problems with our external walls. He recommended the proper solution to the problem and had the unforeseen repairs made efficiently and economically. We were even able to stay on schedule. We are impressed with Matt's problem-solving skills and do not feel like we were taken advantage of. We became very comfortable with Matt and his contractors working in our home while we weren't there. Everyone was professional, courteous, and cleaned up after themselves at the end of the day, which was important to us since were were living in the home during the remodel. When it was time for our summer vacation, we gave Matt our security alarm code and he was kind enough to turn our alarm on and off each day during our absence. We enjoyed our vacation much more knowing that things were secure at home and that we could trust Matt to take care of things for us. In our opinion, Matt is a very organized, reliable, and trustworthy person who pays close attention to details We are very pleased with our kitchen remodel and home repairs. We are already thinking about a master bath remodel and we will definitely call The HomeWright LLC again.

Matt is an excellent, pro-active communicator and kept us abreast of slight adjustments to schedule and status of all work. When we did have questions, he quickly returned text, e-mail and calls if he was not immediately available. He gave us clear timelines for decisions on paint, window and appliance choices and also made sure we met our timelines to keep the project on track. We were pleased that he met the original estimate of when our project would start and finish. The extent of the termite / rot damage was identified once siding was removed, and Matt was indeed very fair on time and material charges. We are also a dual-income household and Matt made sure we were aware of when workers would be in the house. We had complete trust in Matt, his staff, and sub-contractors. We are very pleased with the quality of the work, including gutters, siding, windows and paint. We have received numerous positive comments on the work from neighbors and walkers.

We brought in a couple of project consultants and we interviewed them. it was a difficult process for us to make a decision because the project could go many different ways. We chose Matt because we like our initial meeting with him, he took the time to explain his experience, his work ethics, process, and high level gameplan based up on our needs. We felt like we could trust Matt from the beginning. In addition, we read some other reference material other customers wrote about Matt that indicated he provided quality work and was mostly on time. We felt these were our 2 most important qualities in a contractor because we have 2 little kids and we needed to stick to a tight schedule since our lives were going to be turned upside down without a kitchen for 6 weeks. After we chose Matt, we moved into a detailed scope phase where we drilled down into more specifics. Got into a design phase & then was able to start talking dollars. We liked how his estimate was middle of the road & he would provide regular updates throughout the project on where we stood in regards to the budget based upon the decisions we made on cabinets, floors, lighting, etc.... because you can either save money my the choices you make or spend alot more. We always knew where we stood at any given time. Matt has a good team of vendors that had great product knowledge and you can tell they worked well together with Matt. We had an issue with the cabinet guy because his glass vendor went out of business on him without telling him. The cabinet vendor took action and was able to get in the glass from a new vendor in a reasonable amount of time. My wife & I both work and we had Matt & his team in the house just about every day for 6 weeks and never had any issues or felt uncomfortable. I made a couple of surprise visits home during the day & everyone was always working & doing what they were suppose to be doing. Just as promised, Matt was able to stay on schedule as planned. We only had 1 or 2 super minor follow up items past the due date but everything was up & running on the day promised; we just had to wait on 1 piece of glass for a cabinet & also had to wait on some specialized hardware for our dry bar that we ordered. Finally, communication was great from the beginning to the end. Matt and I were communicating just about every day via email and/or phone. He quickly returned any messages I left and he made himself available on weekends if needed. In summary, I highly recommend The HomeWright LLC. Thanks.

This is our third project working with Matt. While obtaining other bids for this project, Matt was the most responsive in answering our follow up questions and throughout the project he operated in his usual attentive and responsive manner. We are very happy with the end product. While it is never fun to spend money on windows, we feel confident that the work Matt's crew performed will ensure less exterior maintenance on our part in the future.

Project completed on time and met all our expectation.

Initially, we were impressed with Matt and his business. We met with him several times, discussing possible ideas we had for remodeling two separate bathrooms or possibly combining those two bathrooms into one. After viewing some plans he had drawn up and listening to his suggestions, we realized there were some space limitations that could hinder what we wanted. We asked for some creative ideas which might allow us to incorporate some of the things we definitely wanted. His ideas were to eliminate one of the main features we wanted, which was not a 'creative' solution, from our viewpoint. At this point, despite the fact that Matt knew we were not interested in working with someone who would attempt to pressure us in any direction, we felt he did just that. His comments made it seem that he was more interested in working for us, if we chose to do things as he suggested, which would mean a bigger job for him. When I asked how he would do things if we chose to do the simpler project, not combining both bathrooms, his attitude changed, making it sound as if it would be more about just saving money, rather than doing things which would make that smaller bathroom as nice as possible. We especially wanted sufficient storage space, but Matt seemed to downplay the need for that, suggesting we could just make space for towels and things, in some other room. Most importantly, while my husband deals more with the technical aspect of remodeling, I deal more with the aesthetics and design. We work together to achieve what we both need and like. When I left the room at one point, Matt made a personal comment to my husband, asking if 'he got to have any say so', or words to that effect. My husband and I both felt this was uncalled for and totally disrespectful. We did not get a final estimate. Matt was waiting for some more definite decisions, such as what kind of tub we wanted, before giving us that estimate. That is simply part of his process. We really couldn't give those decisions without more research and help in finding what we wanted, and since his lack of creativity did not give us the information we needed, we couldn't make those decisions at that point. We would have preferred to have an estimate range, understanding that the final cost would vary depending on what we ultimately chose. While we felt that Matt would have done excellent work, especially if we had chosen to turn the two bathrooms into one, we chose to go with another company that gives us more leeway in working through this process, and especially more assistance with design and creativity, as well as respect for our needs and wishes.

It was very easy to get an estimate. They were great, the Home Wright is just one guy and he is great.

The project went alomost exactly according to plan. When something didn't Matt always explained the event, answered all our questions and helped to guide us on what would be best for the project. We really appriciated his "honesty". He wasn't shy about telling us our why idea wasn't the greatest. He came up with some great ideas to help us save money and still accomplish our goals (pantry). All the vendors he suggested were easy to work with and we found what we were looking for with them. We did use 1 vendor outside of his list (granite). We had a previous business relationship with them and wanted to use their product if possible. Matt accomidated this--no problem. The workers that were in our house treated it with care. Each day they cleaned up after themselves and respected our home. Todd (electrician) even let our dog in and out during the day. He was great!! Matt was also very patient with us when we were having trouble deciding on a paint color. Each day we had more and more colors on the wall, we were sure we were driving him nuts. He hung in there and kept putting more samples up until we found the one we wanted. Overall the experience was great. We will use The HomeWright again for our projects.

I quoted three contractors for this job. Matt was the only one to spend any time on the initial phone call to understand what the job really was and to develop a common understanding between us. Matt was on time for his appointment to discuss the job. We talked through options for windows (I had already selected the brand I wanted, but he offered an alternative he felt would be less expensive and equally good.) and for a funny roof segment above both sets of casement windows. Matt came out to discuss the quote he developed. He provides a formal written quote detailing the work to be done and significant detail on the materials to be used (for example, caulk brand and model and flashing materials). Matt had the window sales representative come out confirm the measurements to make sure there will be no issues later. A couple of days after we agreed to do the casement windows and siding I decided to also have the three large windows done. He promptly came out and brought his window sales representative because these windows originally were the fixed half of a sliding door and were installed non-traditionally. The three of us discussed options (window types, sizes, and how to properly trim out the inside) and they prepared revised quotes. Because these additional windows are so unusual, Matt asked if he could remove some interior trim to make sure the correct windows were ordered. The sales rep and his boss came for this inspection also. They confirmed how the old windows were constructed and formulated a plan for the interior trim. The installation was very smooth. The temperature ranged between 5 and 25 the days they were working on the windows. The crew was careful to close doors where possible to keep the cold out and worked quite quickly to close the house back up. They cleaned up every night and never made a big mess. Everyone was very polite and friendly. The work performed seems to be very high quality. Through the whole process Matt kept me informed of progress and the plan going forward. Any time I had a question Matt was happy to answer and to make sure I was happy with the work performed. We very much enjoyed working with Matt and his crew.

We hired Matt Wright to completely remodel our master bath. After reviewing his reports on Angie's list and meeting with several other contractors, we selected Matt as we felt that he took time to understand what we were looking for, offered his ideas and suggestions and provided us with a very detailed estimate. As we anticipated selecting some upgrades throughout the process (tile, stone, fixtures, etc.), knowing the details of the bid allowed us to make informed decisions in selecting upgrades while staying within our overall budget. Our overall experience was outstanding. Matt was extremely communicative throughout the process and always very responsive to our requests. As others have stated in his reports, Matt is always on time for his appointments, very professional and courteous and treats your home as if it were his own. Matt does sub-contract much of the work, but he was on-site every day and works with crews that he has known for years. All of his crews were very professional and respectful of our home. Matt provided a detailed schedule at the beginning of the project so we would know which crews would be on-site each day. During the project, some supplies were delayed, but Matt worked diligently to keep the overall project on schedule and was very considerate of the inconvenience a master bath remodel can be for homeowners. Our bathroom project was rather extensive. We took the bathroom all the way down to the studs, eliminated the tub, built a custom tile and stone shower with multiple shower heads, replaced the windows, added insulation to the interior walls for soundproofing, added ventilation, moved the entrance and expanded it for French doors and installed a decorative stone wall. The end-result exceeded our expectations. While we did our homework and were well-prepared for the remodeling, Matt gave us a lot of great ideas that we were able to incorporate. I would definitely recommend Matt for similar projects and would work with him again on future home improvement projects.
