We could not be happier. Don and his crew did an excellent job, and I would not hesitate to hire him again. He and his crew were punctual, efficient and pleasant, and cleaned up afterwards. My two dogs liked them too. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Don Gemma did a wonderful job with awesome results! Great communication with us and and always on time. His crew was pleasant, neat, and on time as well. There were no unexpected costs and work was done in a timely manner. Don worked with my ideas and made additional suggestions to enhance the project. Will certainly recommend The Expert Touch and Don Gemma to friends and neighbors.

Don and his crew did an excellent job and were very aware of maintaining a low keyed presence as much as possible. They got most of the loud work done the 1st day and tried to keep the dust to a minimum throughout the project. They always cleaned up before leaving. too. One always runs into little surprises when doing remodeling and this was job was no exception. Don and his crew were unfazed by the unexpected and dealt with the construction issues as they arose in a very professional manner. They worked every day until the job was finished and gave my aunt a beautiful bathroom she could safety use. If you want a contractor who knows what he's doing, insists on excellence from his crew, does what he says he'll do, and is easy to work with, I'd suggest you hire Don. His cost estimate was also very competitive, in fact it was lower than 2 other estimates.
Description of Work: My 94 year old aunt needed her cramped bathroom made handicapped accessible. She lives in an adult community so you'd think the house would have been built to accommodate walkers and wheelchairs, but that isn't the case. When I talked to Don, the owner of The Expert Touch, I found him to be very knowledgeable, both in regard to the houses in the community, and with ideas about how to change the bathroom to make it usable for those with mobility issues. The plan was to widen the doorway to 36", replace the tub with a roll-in shower, and replace the vanity with a corner pedestal sink. This required moving electrical wiring, some plumbing, and replacing the wall tiles and flooring--basically a major remodeling. I needed the work to be done ASAP and with minimal disruption since too much going on is upsetting for my aunt.

Don told us where to go to choose the flooring that we liked. He then ordered the flooring and when that came in he called and we set up a date for the renovation to start. The old tiles, bathtub ,vanity,and wallpaper were removed. Don and his helpers worked very hard and took a lot of care to make everything fit and look nice. A new bathtub was put in and then the flooring was put down. The next day the old wallpaper was removed and the walls were sanded smooth and prepped for painting. Don was extremely helpful by aiding me in finding the perfect colors for the tiles to go in the shower and the decorative glass inserts really made the shower pop. Two corner shelves, a soap dish, and an overhead light completed the shower. Don also helped me choose a color paint that would coordinate well with the glass decorative tiles for the walls. Don also replaced the vanity and added the mirror and medicine cabinet to complete the bathroom. My husband and I are thrilled with our beautiful new bathroom.
Description of Work: My husband and I needed our bathroom completely remodeled. The old tiles were pulling away from the wall and mold was coming up near the bathtub which was chipped too. The floor tiles were old and cracking and the vanity was also falling apart. There was also old wallpaper that was peeling away from the edges near the sink and floor areas.

Don and his entire work team were very professional. He had workers who knew what they were doing and did it well. I really had to look to find fault and there were only some minor things that needed to be corrected and they were completed with a smile. Pleasure to do business with. I'm looking forward to them redoing my bathroom. I highly recommend this company.

The work was done very professionally. The crew was excellent and very well prepared. They were polite, helped us move furniture inside, cleaned very well, replaced the old blinds or curtains so we could have the privacy until we could shop for new window, drapes, or blinds. And they completed the whole job in about four days. We were very surprised, as other contractors we had used in the past were terrible, and were disasters to deal with. The cost was worth it and I would highly recommend this group. Ron Garritano
