Catlin Construction & Renovation LLC

Came out at the time requested, within 2 days of my initial call. We are having the large kitchen remodeled, except for cabinets. He arrived on time. Said he could do all of the work on our list--no problem. We provided him with a list of material selections and work to be done. That was the end if our contact. We never heard from him again.

Jason Catlin was very quick to return our initial phone call. He came out to assess the job and take measurements. We got estimates from 4 different companies for the job. Jason's was not the lowest or the highest. He won us over with his presentation. His company was willing to do all the work so we didn't have to piece things out. I picked out cabinets from a KraftMaid line. They are all wood construction with the quiet close doors and drawers. I couldn't be happier with their look or function. The countertop is granite. The back splash is travertine. The floor is a hand scraped bamboo. The cabinets were ordered in December. Work began a few days before the cabinets arrived. Vince and Dustin were working at our home Monday through Fri for about 3 weeks. They were very professional and hardworking. Any question we had or any changes we wanted were quickly addressed by one of the 3. Our home is over 30 years old and it has a lot of flaws but the kitchen/dining room is not one of them. The kitchen turned out quite beautiful. Better than we imagined. We will use Catlin Construction in the future because of the quality work we've seen first hand.

Catlin construction completed the remodel of my upstairs bathroom in March, 2012 and I was completely satisfied so I asked them to replace the doors, moulding and trim in my home in August, 2012. I hired Jason and his team again in September 2012 to remodel my downstairs bathroom, laundry room and repair water damaged walls and ceiling in my family room. I was completely comfortable with Catlin Construction being in my home, Jason, Vince and Dustin were very respectful of my home and took care to cover carpet, minimize dust from traveling throughout my house via tarps, etc. I was comfortable leaving the workers in my home when I had to step out. The same three workers competed all of the projects and knowing the quality of the work and their professionalism, it was an easy decision to hire Catlin Construction for subsequent jobs.

Jason (the owner) appeared as scheduled to provide an estimate for the cost of the project. A day or two later he returned with the estimate after determining the material costs (oak hardwood, stain, trim molding, etc.). At that time we agreed on a price and the tentative schedule for the work to be done. The contract included a tentative completion date for the project to be completed. All work went well except for a couple of minor distracters such as his subcontractors changing their work schedules without notifying Jason. When I made Jason aware of this small glitches, he took immediate corrective action and all continued as it should have. The final completion date was delayed 1 day but was due to Jason's subcontractor. As an added note I must complement Jason and his subcontractor for the quality of work performed, the "old school" wood working skills of all these people justified the minor 1 day delay for project completion. Highly recommended....

Same as above, our time was wasted waiting on his estimate

Jason, Vince, and Dustin did an amazing job renovating our bathroom. Their attention to detail was outstanding, even down to the horrible (to install) light fixture I chose. They asked questions when they needed to, offered awesome suggestions, and were just great to work with. Always on time, and always open communication if any challenges arose. I was home the whole time, and never heard anything that scared me or gave me a bad impression. I could not recommend them highly enough. The tile work was fairly complicated (aka impossible for me) and they did a beautiful job with it. Friends and family have oooh'd and aaaah'd. And they were very patient easing my paranoia about water leaks or steam infiltration. I have no fears with this bathroom! And like another reviewer, Jason even helped by patching some random drywall I showed him in my basement.

The work was performed to our specifications and both Jason and his coworker were professional and courteous. Since then, Jason has also given us lots of advice about solutions to various problems in our ouse (even though we aren't always ready to act on those potential solutions) and once he even fixed a leaking laundry tub for us for free, coming back after I completely failed at attempting to implement the solution he tried to explain to me. Basically, he's our hero! Based on all the above, when we are finally ready for big remodeling jobs (hopefully our kitchen next year), he will be the first person we call, but he will also take on smaller jobs. He's also a really nice and honest guy. I definitely trust his input and know he's not trying to sell me anything because he's told me not to do some things that could easily have made him money.

He measured the kitchen and told us he was going to either call or e-mail on a price but, never heard from him( the owner).

Came out quickly. Very punctual. Did a very thorough job of explaining what needed to be done and the costs involved - offered options. Went right to work - had everything needed at hand - very hard workers. Cleaned up everything - and then some. Very friendly and kind.

Upstairs first then downstairs as well as a connecting room and stairway. Very good work and nice upgrade on work well done. Very good crew!

I found Catlin Construction on Angie's List last spring when I was looking for someone to do the drywall work on a remodel project I was working on. I received an estimate from the owner, Jason Catlin and compared it with two other estimates I had received and they were all in the same ballpark. I felt most comfortable with Jason so I decided to give him the work. I was so pleased with the job he did on the drywall that I asked him to quote my next two projects, which were interior painting and a bathroom remodel. The job he did on the bathroom was incredible. I have received many compliments on the new bathroom from everyone who has seen it. Plus, since my design was something a little more contemporary I could tell that he and his crew really enjoyed working on the project. The only thing left to do was to reside the home and since I'd had such great luck with Catlin Construction so far, I figured I would get a quote from Jason on that as well. I was about 70% sure what I wanted to do on the outside of the home, but asked Jason for some advice. He told me about a product he'd used on his own home called Novabrik and explained how he could use both the Novabrik and vinyl siding to provide a nice accent. I research the product online and knew immediately that was the look I was going for. While the quote he gave me was high, I knew that he would go above and beyond to make sure I was very happy with the end result. That's exactly what happened. I couldn't be more pleased with the finished product.

The work they did was all high to excellent quality. Following painting there were a few spots left on my hardwood floors, and Jason came out immediately to fix the problem. The crew was very professional and courteous. They were careful to lock up the house when I was not there, their language was never offensive, and they kept the house clean as they worked. Jason was also angelically patient, as he waited for payment from my mortgage company which arrived exceedingly late. After having several contractors come through for series of jobs, Catlin Construction was hands-down my favorite.

Catlin Construction refurbished our damaged basement bathroom. They rebuilt the drywall, removed of the old shower insert, and in its place created a new beautifully tiled shower with a niche and matching tile flooring. The niche displays artistry that speaks to the design of the overall shower. The tiled floor has a lovely pinwheel pattern (replacing the damaged carpet with tile that matched the shower). Both the newly installed tiled floor, and the new shower boasts a beautiful artistic quality that complements the entire basement, as well as the entire home. Catlin installed a new light fixture in the basement bathroom, a new mirror, as well as built an exhaust fan and installed venting to draw air out the bathroom, sending it to the outside of our home. They painted, added molding and ensured that outdated electrical outlets were up to code. In addition, they added towel bars, a hook for a robe, as well as created and installed cleverly hidden access panels above the toilet to allow easy access to shut off values. Catlin Construction was extremely professional and exhibited superior craftsmanship throughout the entire project. We selected, purchased in advance, and provided to the company many of the items to install (the tile, vanity top with integrated sink, light fixture, mirror, shower door, faucets, towel bar, towel ring, robe hook, and toilet paper holder). When we ran in to a few challenges, they were able to quickly resolve them which is a testament to their skill and ability, such as when my husband and I had decided on a certain design for the mirror and the light fixture (we had purchased both in advance). Catlin was pretty much done with the bathroom and ready to install these two items. To our surprise they no longer fit into the space. We discovered that a much wider light switch plate cover had been installed that was not originally there, and it prevented the new mirror and new light fixture from fitting into the space. We initially measured the space thinking that the light switch plate cover would remain the same size. We thought we would have to change our design concept for something less desirable in order to find something that would fit into the smaller space. Catlin construction discussed rearranging the light fixture to allow for inverted lanterns, which then allowed the mirror to be positioned in a manner that allowed it to fit properly. It was a spur of the moment design change by the company, and was something my husband and I had not envisioned, but it in the end it looked just a beautiful. We did not have to go through the trouble of returning items. An unexpected change to the design turned out to be an element of surprise that added a bit of flair to the overall look of the bathroom. The entire bathroom looks absolutely amazing. If you looked at the before and after photos, you would not believe it is the same bathroom. The work they accomplished on this bathroom is unbelievable. Every so often I have to go down into the basement and just marvel at what they accomplished. It has a certain je ne sais quoi! We were hoping to have all the paper work finalized with the insurance company by now, and still hope to get Catlin's feedback on the cost break outs. All in all the work is exceptional.

they were professional, courteous and right on time (they were originally scheduled a day earlier but had a work emergency, so they arranged with us to show up at 6 am on a Friday morning! Very impressive!) We are going to hire them to do a lot of other work for us, and I've already met with them to discuss some of these other jobs. We highly recommend this company!

They did a fabulous job. They were prompt, they were fast, they cleaned up after themselves. The result was gorgeous. I'm sorry it took me so long to write this review.

I had my kitchen remodeled by another contractor, very poor job, didn't measure right and things just didn't fit, left stuff undone! I just wanted him out of my house! I met a lady that told me she just loved her kitchen, I told her that what I wanted to say, she gave me his card,and so I called, so happy I did! Jason came right over and looked at it and gave me a price, so very willing to make everything okay and to please his customer, Jason and Chad did a great job, we are so very grateful! I will for sure use Catlin Construction again! I can now say I love my kitchen too! For some one to come in and fix a mistakes that someone else has done is really nice, and I can't thank them enough. There top on my list!

He was very professional, but I did not accept the job due to the price being higher than other estimates I had received.

Jason met with me and we discussed what I wanted in my new kitchen. He offered many useful suggestions both functional and aesthetic. He drew plans for the kitchen. I was impressed by his knowledge of products and the fact that he only wanted to use ones that were good quality(not necessarily the most expensive), He helped me with tile and floor choices. He was always available to answer questions. I was impressed by the fact that he gave so much time to a small project. He worked quickly and cleaned up well.He was always on time and polite. Because my condo is over 50 years old and my kitchen was in terrible shape he ran into some plumbing and electrical problems but took care of these. He takes great pride in his work always going the extra mile to assure a perfect finished product.I had suggested he take some short cuts with the tile but he insisted on putting in the extra work and time to make it truly beautiful. My new kitchen has exceeded my expectations. It is not only beautiful but very functional. Jason is truly one of a kind. I'm looking forward to having him renovate other parts of my condo.

Jason called a couple of times before the job and we knew exactly when he was coming. We went over the style, type of wood and stain in an earlier visit. Jason gave good advice and helped us pinpoint the type of stain that we liked for the doors. The first day they stayed 12-hr's and because of that they were able to take all the doors home. The doors had to be stained multiple times and dried before they could be hung. We were well informed during this process. Four days later they came back and changed the doors-sometimes doors had to be tried more than once on a frame so they would fit the right way. The door frames and heights sometimes varied--they were not standard. I thought that Jason was very detailed and friendly, he obviously likes what he is doing. Jason will take his time with you to make sure the job is done correctly which I think makes him a cut above most other companies. Also Jason is creative and comes up with suggestions that can save you money. He thinks about the sticky points of the job and comes up with good solutions. Hire him, even if you do end up paying slightly more you will not be disappointed as there will be no problems or surprises during the job.

From start to finish everything went smoothly. The work was scheduled to be completed in two weeks and was. When the contractor discovered how blocked the sink drain pipe was he replaced the drain and restored real drainage we had not had in years.

The entire project went well. Installation of the backsplash was almost the final touch to the project. Problems were encountered with cutting the glass tile to fit half tiles around the window. The contractor and his assistant solved that issue. In the end the project took a day and a half and looks wonderful.

The flooring went in so well I have flooring left over to use in my half bath. The transition between the kitchen and dining area is practically level which was a vast improvement offer the old floor transition. The great protection given the floor during the rest of the project kept it from being damaged in any way. I am very pleased with the outcome.

The project went quite smoothly despite the difficulty of having almost no fudge factors. Every step was executed professionally. Whenever there was something the contractor felt needed to be added it was discussed and we made our decisions based on the info provided. The contractor was very much a perfectionist as was his assistant. The work was estimated to be completed by Christmas and was done with a few days to spare. Every day the work area was cleaned up so dirt would not track through the house. After hearing nightmares about kitchen renovations I cannot complain even for a minute. My experience was great and the outcome fantastic.

I believe the paint job was done very well. I have heard horror stories about painters making messes or doing bad jobs. This experience was nothing like that and turned out great. Being able to afford premium paint makes me confident it will stand up well also.

All the wall board work resulted in the benefits we expected. The room is warmer and our backsplash tile looks even and smooth. My tin ceiling looks like a million bucks. If the base for these projects was not done as well as it was I don't believe the end result would have gone as well. An added benefit was how the room was partitioned off and the drywall dust seeping into other areas of the house was very minimal.
