Invest In Your Kitchen & Bath, TDG Construction

unknown

My wife and I spoke to several people about this remodeling job. However, the minute we met the owners of TDG construction, we were convinced that this would be the company for us. First of all, when my wife and I decided to remodel our bathrooms we thought of new showers and toilets .The owner of TDG, Ms. Pat Raaz, saw the potential of much more than new toilets and showers. Immediately she and her staff came up with plans to utilize space that would make our bathrooms much more than we had envisioned. They designed a bedroom bathroom that only an experience person could think of. They came in and expanded a small bedroom closet to spacious walk in closet. Their design for the bedroom bath was even more incredible. The shower wall and floor was tiled with excellent craftsmanship. The shower space was designed and crafted to be more spacious and luxurious. Every inch of space that could be used was used. This was so far beyond what my wife and I had in mind. This bathroom, walk in closet and linen closet are truly remarkable. To see it evolve from the mind of Mrs Raaz to the design stage and to the actual remodeling process was miraculous in my eyes. She has such a keen eye for design. The main bathroom of our home was the next project. Needless to say that in a house that was built in the 1980's, the bathroom was simply outdated. Once again TDG construction designed a masterpiece. Their design and construction resulted in a more spacious and modern bathroom. Thanks to TDG construction we are enjoying our remodeled bathrooms and closets. The ideas that they brought forth were amazing. Now we are reaping the benefits of this extraordinary company.

Too slow, invoices came in over quoted price. Workers were friendly, owner is difficult to get along with. Most of their labor is contract, never know who will be coming to the house. Much of the hardware and at least one light fixture installed has fallen off the walls or out of the ceiling, had to have another electrician come out an unscramble electrical work inside swith plates.

The family is very friendly. They had good ideas, but their ideas didn't work in our situation. They seemed to want to renovate our kitchen the same as the previous one they did, including materials, even though I kept telling her exactly what I wanted. One of the drawings blocked the doorway and did not take into consideration that there was a brick wall there that we had no intentions of moving. When I told her this, she kept arguing with me and then asked me to take pictures of the wall and e-mail them to her, even though they had already taken pictures. She obviously didn't think that the wall was where I told her it was. We paid $1200 up front for her to do the designs. When we finally got so frustrated, I called and told her that we were not going to be able to work together. She asked what I would like to do and I asked if we could get some of our money back. She said she would give us half of our money back. I was glad to at least get some of the money back, but spent $600 for nothing, except a lesson learned. I don't know what the answer is. I realize that a designer can't give you a design and take a chance on not getting paid for it, but I know that we will never give anyone that much money upfront again.

It went well. The bathroom is beautiful. I even hired them again for another bathroom.

In the end, I hired Lowes to install countertop. The communicate was not that great as they sub-contract. I got a great product for a good price. I am still working with another contractor on the bathroom but project has not started as this date.

I did not reschedule. Missed out on big remodel job!

It went really well for the most part. The work was excellent, my only complaint would be that there were a few times that the communication was off in terms of the crew showing up. Other than that it was a great experience. I highly recommend them.

3 week project took over 7 weeks. Some days no one even showed up.

Contacted TDG to do a remodel. We showed them the house and told them our budget and asked them if we could get the job done for that price and they assured us that it was not an issue. They were quick to meet, seemed professional enough however asked for $1000 to do a design and quote for the remodel. They stated it would take a week and although we were hesitant to give money to someone before they gave us a price we handed them a $1000 check. There was never a design done for the house and it took them 3 weeks to give a quote. Once they actually met up with us the quote was double what our budget was and they mentioned in the bid that a large portion of the work do be done was going to have to be done by us to keep the pricing lower. The asked double our budget and expected us to do a lot of the work ourselves?? Super unprofessional I would never use these guys and suggest no one else does either. Anyone who asks for money to give you a quote is a thief and I should have never given these crooks a penny. After we called them out on our issues with them they stated that they felt we were not comparable to do business with and took our money and ran.

They have treated me very kindly and made sure I understood the process. They have kept me up to date and are easy to contact. I was happy that they were able to recycle and re-purpose existing items, such as the cabinets, to save me money. The craftsmanship has been excellent. I am really happy with their services and would recommend them to others. It is a family oriented business and I felt comfortable working with them and felt at ease.

This job started with Pat designing our new bathrooms. One bathroom was new counter top, sink, toilet, paint & fixtures. The other bathroom was a complete gut and rebuild. Pats first design was just what we wanted. We were very impressed with the skills and politeness of the workers. We trusted them with our home even when we went on a vacation. They were all very skilled craftsmen and would clean up every day before they left. We would recommend this company to anyone and would use again.

They were on time and completed the entire job the same day. They cleaned up well after themselves and were very polite and friendly.

It's been wonderful. They have done everything I could have ever asked for. They were very savvy for what we were trying to do, which was get the house ready for sale. They were very economical and recycled cabinets etc. whenever possible. The owner, Pat Raaz, assembles a crew very knowledgeable and experienced in their field. They did very good work for a good/fair price. The tile and carpentry work was exquisite. They do what's needed and what we were asking for. Pat has been helpful beyond what I expected. Her experience with real estate and remodeling has been a god send. It was economical and fit our budget, and the results are very professional. We went in with a general idea, and she has been able to help us refine and go forward in many different areas. I highly recommend-Invest in Your Kitchen & Bath,TDG Construction!

Beginning with the design phase I felt like they didn't LISTEN to my preferences. I had to force and insist that they include features that I desired. I even gave them pictures of what I wanted. When they began the work, it moved quickly at first, then after about a month they began moving their workers to other jobs and kept only a skeleton crew at my house. As they began to install cabinets we realized they were not the specific type cabinets that I had EXPRESSLY requested, so then we had to wait for the new cabinets to arrive and they wanted me to pay the upcharge, even tho THEY had made the error. I was not happy with some of their workmanship, I had to keep pointing out things that had to be corrected. I even had to call them back to do it again. The countertops were cut crooked around the sink and they said it couldn't be fixed. I have to live with that. The under-counter lighting was a mess with wire nuts exposed and holes in the walls. They admitted to me that they had never installed this type before. And even after I complained they would not come back and re-do them. 6 months after "completion" I let them know that I would be finding another electrician to fix their mess and then they wanted to come back, which I would not allow. They did not order the proper fitting pantry unit for my cabinetry, then wanted me to pay, again, the cost and said they would install it at no charge. Only they had no clue how to install it and my husband finally had to install it to fit. I like the look of the kitchen, it is much more functional that before, but I can't help but remember the nightmare it was and going over-budget by $10K because they didn't foresee necessary expenses that an experiences architect/building should have known.

The price was really good. They were friendly. They suggested things I hadn't thought of to save me money. They provided a good service.

They did seem to know what they were doing and they asked the right questions. They were knowledgeable about the products that they sell.

We spoke over the phone regarding kitchen and bath remodeling but we are kind of a stand still on our project. We are not going to do anything at this time. When I contacted them, they were very nice. I spoke to them probably about a month ago. We just spoke over the phone and we were going to meet but I had to call them to put it on hold. The lady that I spoke to was very helpful and answered some of the questions that I had. She was very professional. The information she provided was very helpful. She was professional and very informative. She called me back right away.

They were the type of people where we felt very comfortable having in our house and giving them a key or code to get in. They were so trusting and trustworthy. They were good kids. We felt very safe letting them into our home. The price was reasonable.

Very good!!

Invest in your kitchen arrived on time to begin the install. Once the French door was installed they added border to smooth out and complete the look. The entire process was completed in one day. I used them before to remodel my bathrooms and they delivered quality work once again for this project. Do yourself a favor and check out their website, investinyourkitchen.com, to see what all they can do for you.

I received several bids to remodel both of my small bathrooms. Invest in your Kitchen came in quite a bit lower than the other bids so I gave them a shot at it. Harvey and his crew are very professional and perform great work while minimizing costs but maintaining quality. He even had several recommendations during the remodel that they could do just a bit differently to reduce costs even more while maintaining the look and feel that I wanted. They go the extra mile to do the small things that weren't necessarily included in the bid but make the job look complete and polished. I recommend them to anyone and plan on using them in the future for other improvements that I have planned.
