They were very professional but their price was extremely high compared to everybody else I have used on Angie's List. They were punctual and very much to what they said they were going to in the time manner. It is just the price that was really very high.
Description of Work: They gave me a quote for an addition to the house. It will include master suite, bathroom, hall and closet. It will also include a single car garage. They will also be doing electrical, plumbing and other works that is needed.

Response from DiFabion Remodeling Inc
We have found during these challenging economic times, that pricing is very inconsistent. There are home builders entering the remodeling market and remodeling firms that are willing to work at a bare bones cost just to keep busy. Structure of the Company is very important when considering a contractor. With full time employees on staff as well as a full service production department, we are able to control quality and scheduling on a very consistent basis. I would welcome the opportunity to compare quotes to review all aspects of labor, materials and management. Additionally, on larger projects where significant square footage is being added, lenders are more strict than ever. With our outstanding financial strength and payment history, we are confident of being approved as an authorized contractor under the most stringent requirements.

The results are outstanding, there is not a single thing I would change about this bathroom. The DiFabion team is definitely top quality, skilled contractors, but not the lowest cost provider. The good news is that you get what you pay for with Mike Difabion. After a long process of talking with many different contractors, Mike DiFabion was the only one who gave me confidence that he understood and could deliver what I wanted (an Asian flavor, unique, high quality bathroom). He delivered beautifully. The person most responsible for the high quality results is the Project Manager, Scott McIntyre. Scott has an eye for detail and high standards. He managed the contractors and resolved any problems that occurred. One provider knocked down part of a stone retaining wall during the project. Scott handled the whole problem and the wall was repaired. One contractor was drilling holes in stone and thought the placement "looked pretty good". Scott stepped in and measured, checked angles and marked the exact symmetrical placement. The cost of working with a top end re-modeler like Mike Difabion pays off by the relationships he has established with providers like Randy Gajewski, a top electrician, Fran Olday of Creative Cabinetry and the Father/Son team he uses for tile installation, to name a few. If you want a professional, top end, high quality remodeling job, this is a great team to select.
Description of Work: Complete master bath remodel: Replaced old white porcelain tile with lovely travertine stone; Replaced standard (builders quality) cabinet/sinks/hardware with custom cabinet, granite top, and through the wall facets with travertine backsplash; All new bath, hardware, toilet, and shower with custom glass doors

What a great experience - the Difabion workers were incredibly professional and very skilled. We were so impressed with their attention to detail - the craftsmanship was just excellent. Our new bathroom exceeded our expectations - as did the the Difabion work crew. A class act throughout the entire process - from planning to implementation to completion.

We met with Mike DiFabion several times before the work began. He got an idea of what we wanted to do and he came back with several options. Once we decided which plan we liked best, he gave us an estimate of what we were looking at cost wise. After hiring him, he gave us a detailed list of everything involved in the project, what it cost, payment schedule and what to expect from them. He even provided a weekly work schedule. A drawing was provided to give us a visual of what the kitchen would look like. He gave us a list of places and people to contact in making our choices for granite, tile, light fixtures, sinks and appliances. His cabinet specialist, Fran came to our house and gave us options for our cabinets and samples and provided a wealth of information and help. She was on-sight when cabinets were to be put in and made sure everything was just right. Scott, Mike's production manager was also always available and helpful with any questions we had. If we had any problems, all we had to do was tell Scott and it got done. All of Mike's employees and people who did work for him were extremely professional, on time and very personable. We are extremely pleased with our new kitchen and the quality of work! We would absolutely hire them again.
Description of Work: Complete remodel of our kitchen. Everything torn out but keeping the same floor plan. New cabinets, granite countertops and appliances put in. Additionally, they replaced a doorway between the kitchen and dining room with an expanded archway. We had double windows replaced in the kitchen with french doors leading out to our screened porch. Our original door to the screened porch was enclosed to provide extra cabinet and counter space, which also entailed matching and filling in with brick on the outside (screened porch side). We also had our laundry room laminate countertop replaced with granite and upgraded our sink in there.

We decided that our kitchen has become dated after 8 years and sought out Mike based off of a co-workers recommendation. The DiFabion team was very professional from beginning to end. They prepared us for the mess they we were about to embrace over our almost 12 week journey. They walked us through every step from the design, installation, to the final walk-through. The whole process was 1st class. We didn't even have to leave our house to pick out cabinets (they brought all the samples to us, including wood floor samples). Before the work began they brought every person that was going to be in our house and introduced us to them. The quality and craftsmanship that Mike employs is phenomenal - from the tile guy to the finish carpenter.
Description of Work: They gutted our kitchen and redesigned to fit our lifestyle. Pulled up hardwood floors in kitchen, entry way and half bath and replaced new hardwoods in entry way (with a beautiful slate inlay in the hallway) and with slate in the rest. Enlarged our island. Replaced all cabinets, built an over the range hood out of cherry, built in 42" refrigerator and built in over and microwave. Added crown modeling in living room. Added tile back splash from granite to cabinets. Added 12 recessed lights in kitchen, and other new fixtures. Tiled master bath, removed existing shower and made it bigger and frameless.

Mike DiFabion was extremely professional from start to finish. Furthermore, his team led by Scott McIntyre, was clean, courteous, responsive to changes, on time, and skilled. There were no surprises in the pricing, agenda, or scope of work. The allowances built into the original estimate for tile and bathroom fixtures were what we were hoping for which afforded ample upgrades from the basics. We have a beautiful area that is functional and attractive. I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I was by the communication. Our input into the project, feedback during the project, and questions throughout the process were handled as we had hoped. On several occasions, they took the extra step to make our life easier. Finally, a general contractor is only as good as their laborers. They have surrounded themselves with an impressive team that works well together and takes pride in their work. We could not give a stronger endorsement for DiFabion Remodeling.
Description of Work: DiFabion Remodeling converted an unfinished walk up 3rd floor to a finished office, full bathroom, closet, and storage room. A separate HVAC system for the area was installed by a contractor referred by DiFabion. The pricing listed here included everything except carpeting and paint.

Mike DiFabion and his crew were very professional and great to work with. Mike gives realistic pricing and realistic project completion times. He accommodated several changes to the plan that I made along the way. We were updated of any delays, and Mike worked to move parts of the project around to make up time when a cabinet arrived in the wrong size. The kitchen is beautiful. I have, and would, recommend them to anyone.

We are very pleased with the final product and thought they did a great job. For the most part, they listened to what we wanted and were here when they said they would be. I thought they were professional and experienced. I would recommend them and use them again in the future if I needed to. I do not wish to disclose the price that I paid for the job, but it was a good price and very reasonable.

I was absolutely speechless when I saw the final product after the new addition to our home. I was so surprised that it turned out as well as I wanted it to.

They work was of extremely high quality. I have recommended them many times to others already. They were probably midrange for pricing from the bids we got. I would say that their work made the price appropriate. I was very happy with the service and the results that we got. It looks great.
Description of Work: They added a breakfast room that is about 10 x 20 feet. It then actually connected our home to an apartment that we had next to the house. So now the house and the apartment are all connected as one. They had to tear into one side wall of both the apartment and our house so they could build the breakfast room. We had electric work done to put in lights and outlets in the breakfast room.

I cannot remember one single problem that we had with this company. They were always on time and always answered our questions. They really made us feel comfortable with such a big financial decision. The work that was done was phenomenal! They really know how to pay attention to detail. I was very impressed.
Description of Work: The master bathroom was completely gutted and remodeled. All of the work in the 8 x 12 bathroom was done by this company. There was a new walk in shower added, new vanity and new tiles throughout the floor and walls. A tub and vanity as well as double sinks were added as well. There was a lot of electrical work that had to be done to bring the room up to code. Work that included stripping the old electrical wiring and replacing all of it. The house is very old and there were a few things that needed to be addressed. There was also an 8 x 8 foot walk in closet added as well as toilets, shower heads, drywall and paint.

They were a couple of things they did that did not pass inspection and they had to come back out and redo them. They had to come back and install a vent and the door that they first put in was an outside door and legally any doors inside your home have to be made for the inside not the outside in case of a fire. This was not really the worker's fault because he did not know. In terms of hiring a contractor and getting the job done the way you want it, I thought they did a great job. I do not wish to disclose the price, but we got three different estimates and based on the quality of work they were by far the best in terms of price.
Description of Work: They converted an existing space in our house into a half bathroom. The space was originally just a crawl hole and they installed a toilet, sink, faucet, some shelving around the sink area and a new door.

We are so very pleased with the work this companies workers did for us. Their overall craftsmanship was outstanding. I can not express enough how great these people were to deal with as well. Everyone was so very polite, and we would want to recommend this company to anybody needing remodeling work done to their homes. We were told at the beginning of the project about roughly how long it would take to complete, and they were pretty much right on with their estimate. We did shop price and found that they were definitely very competitive.
Description of Work: Difabion Remodeling added a new playroom for the kids, a new laundry room complete with all the hookups, and a new main bathroom with a sink cabinet, a new toilet, and a new bathtub/ shower liner. The entire new additions totaled about 800 square foot in living space.

Mike and his crew were just great, even from the very beginning. There were only three or four guys on the team, and they were the best. They fit the time of the contract so that it fit in with our schedule, which was nice. We did have one issue, and they did come back to resolve it right away. The job only took two inspections to pass. These men were quite involved with their work. We did check around for other prices, but a lot of them were very expensive. As a matter of fact, another guy wanted three times as much as we paid for this job. Overall, I think we chose a good company.

Our pool house was on the front page of today's Observer newspaper. They did such an excellent job. The company was recognized for outstanding work. I was very pleased with the detail that was put into everything. They made sure to complete the job on time and work with us to make a wonderful floor plan for each room of the pool house and addition. I would definitely recommend this company.
Description of Work: The entire pool house was built, which is 22 by 10 feet. It includes a kitchen bath and shower. The lighting for the pool house electrical, drywall, roofing, and floors were all sub-contracted out by this company. They also added an addition at the same time to the back of our home that leads out to the pool. It is about 400 square feet and is full of beautiful large windows. The electrical, drywall, carpets, and heating and cooling were all done by this company, as well and sub-contracted out. The price is for the total of both jobs, and the company distributed what was owed to each sub-contractor.

We were so happy with the work they did. we just contracted them to remodel our master bedroom and build a new deck for us. We really liked that they sat down and drew out the layout with us so we knew that they were building exactly what we wanted. I felt they use good workers and know their job quite well.
Description of Work: I have a good-sized kitchen, however I don't know the size, but we had it completely remodeled from the floor to the ceiling with new wood cabinets, tiles on the floor, and solid surface counters. I have counter and cabinets all the way across my kitchen. I am also unsure of how many cabinets and drawers there are.
