Chris made appt. Canceled day of appointment due to illness and made new tentative appointment. He never called or showed up. Did not return two phone calls I made to him. Very strange and unprofessional.

It took me a very long time to get this project going until I met Chris. I had gotten some sky high estimates and knew what the cost of this job should be and Chris came in at that price. He helped me make some good decisions - i.e., to switch the type of flooring I wanted to install from pocelain to vinyl wood planks, and I am happy I listened to him. I have a very small kitchen and he was innovative in creating more storage space for me. A few surprises popped up when the walls came down, but Chris easily addressed them by coming up with affordable solutions that did not hold up the job. He also rebuilt 2 living room stairs as well as making 2 radiator covers - things that I hadn't planned to do, but as we went along I decided to take advantage of his skills and had some extra work done. Chris is prompt, innovative, trustworthy and left my place as clean as possible at the end of each day. Highly recommend. A+A+A+ :)

Chris Kardis was super-excellent. Our remodel is gorgeous and the quality of workmanship is without a flaw. We have other construction done by other contractors, but this is the first time that we have not had one concern, complaint or angst. We would absolutely use Complete Carpentry again, and would recommend them enthusiastically. A++++

We are so happy with the work Chris did for us. We received many estimates, but we were most impressed with by his honesty, quality of materials used, fair pricing and examples of past jobs he had posted on his Instagram page. Even though we have an older home that usually complicates construction, Chris did an amazing job hanging our new interior doors. We are also in love with our new bathroom-he gave it a much needed update and added value to home. We have already recommended Chris to others and we would definitely use him again!

Chris performed a total kitchen renovation for us. Everything went according to plan and Chris made the whole process super easy. He guided us through all the decisions that had to be made. We always felt comfortable calling him and getting his expert advice. Chris started exactly when he said he would and stayed on schedule throughout the entire job. He was always there on the job every single day doing all the work himself with a helper. When you hire Complete Carpentry you are hiring Chris, the owner. We loved the fact that he does all the work himself and doesn't sub out any of the work. Chris is honest, trustworthy, a perfectionist who has great attention to detail, neat, hardworking, and a pleasure to work with. We would definitely recommend Chris to anyone looking to do any work in their home and we will be using him again in the spring to do more work in our own home. He is simply the best!

We have used Chris and his team multiple times over the past few years. Any renovation can be overwhelming and scary, but working with Chris has been a dream. He is professional, meticulous to detail, reliable, trustworthy and always fair. Chris has done our kitchen and bathrooms, drywall, lighting, laid wood and tile floors down, and reinforced our sloping floors. Chris is very knowledgeable in all phases of construction and the end result for everything was more that we could ever hope for. He always arrived early in the morning and never left a mess after being done for the day. He and his team really work to your satisfaction. It is not easy living through a renovation, but Chris and his team made it was easy as possible, and he prides himself on keeping his customers happy. It is very difficult to find a reliable contractor, but we found it in Chris, and we would not hesitate to recommend Chris to anyone, and have many more projects that we would love to have him do for us.

The kitchen looks great - I can't complain about the workmanship, but the professionalism is severely lacking. There was an error made by the salesman at Consumers Kitchen & Bath (who was recommended by Complete Carpentry) and incorrect materials were delivered for our powder room. Rather than do what we asked for, Complete Carpentry put in a sink top that we did not want or like. We needed the job to be finished for Thanksgiving, so we agreed to leave the top in temporarily. Chris said he would return to install the correct sink top when it was fabricated in about 2 weeks. I called him after a month and he told me they were still working on it. I have not heard from him since. It's unfortunate, because Chris has done a lot of work in my house and he does a good job, but part of doing business is good customer service. This was not acceptable. If you are looking for professionalism and good service, look elsewhere.

We couldn't be happier with the work performed. Chris and his staff are professional. They came on time, worked a full day and did the work with a smile on their faces. Everything was done to the highest level of quality. They were always willing to accomodate our requests and made the process as easy and pleasant as can be. I plan to use Complete Carpentry for our next project in a few months. I have already recommended them to our friends and would highly recommend them again and again.

They were terrific. Chris had some unique ideas on how to make the most of limited space since it was a small kitchen and the bathroom looked amazing He was hands on doing the major work himself. He went out of his way to make us satisfied and we couldn't be happier with the outcome.

For the second time this year, we chose Complete Carpentry to work in our home. First time around we renovated our second floor bathroom; this time Chris and team built a new mantel around our fireplace. Our second experience was as good as the first. Over the course of three days, our ugly old fireplace was transformed into an elegant centerpiece. This job was done quickly over the course of three days, and the craftsmanship is top notch. I highly recommend, and look forward bringing Complete Carpentry in for further renovations to our home.

Remodeling a kitchen is a complicated and difficult process that can be very stressful. Working with Chris made the experience so much easier. He provided suggestions and help with the many decisions that have to be made. He showed up everyday and coordinated the work so there was little to no down time. He is a perfectionist in all that he does. We are thrilled with our brand new open concept kitchen.

Having used Chris in the past to remodel the bathrooms in my home, there was no one else I would hire to gut and rebuild my basement. To find a contractor that is honest, that I can leave in my house when I go to work, and is never late, is unheard of these days. Chris came on time by 8 am every morning, and stayed until 5 pm every night. If he needed to finish something, he stayed late. Before he would leave, his work area would be totally spotless, so that my normal routine was not interrupted. Chris and his crew did EVERYTHING that needed to be done, from gutting the basement to installing new insulation, sheetrock, flooring, windows, doors and remodeling an old bathroom into a beautiful new, modern one. He redid the closets, build an access door to a storage area under the steps, and even built a dehumidifier into the wall so it didn't take up extra space. He worked within my budget, and measured everything to perfection. In addition to doing excellent carpentry and trim work, Chris has an uncanny eye for creating beautiful bathrooms and tile work. He is creative and forward-thinking, and thinks of things that other contractors never think of. He gently recommended new products and styles, and worked with me until I was satisfied. There was never an uneven tile or corner or molding. Everything was just perfect! Chris started the job when he said he would, and the job was finished within the time frame we agreed upon. I am extremely pleased with his work, and highly recommend Chris and Complete Carpentry.

Chris performed a total bathroom renovation for us. Everything went according to our plans. He stayed on target throughout the entire process. He was very thorough, professional and reliable and we will definitely work with him again in the future. The best thing is that Chris (the owner) does all of the work. Chris and his assistant, Mike, arrived on time everyday and before leaving in the evening, Chris gave us a plan for the following day. There were no surprises. Chris was very accommodating to all of our requests and treated our home with great respect. We would highly recommend him for any professional renovations. He was very honest. We would definitely use him again for future projects. Please see the photos attached. We are thrilled at the way our bathroom turned out.

Unprofessional. A simple response on his part should have been made as a professional.
Description of Work: Chris came over on time and I told him I wanted a kitchen remodel and a list of other things he told me he was booked till August I was fine with waiting based on his reviews for work performed. He even gave me recommendations and talked as if he was going to do the work Unfortunately he has not returned my calls messages or emails and I went the extra mile per his request and got a price and kitchen plans drawn up. My time is very valuable and to be treated with such disrespect is not very professional. I am an adult a simple I can't perform the job or I don't want to would have been enough instead of wasting my time and making me travel for kitchen plans that you know you are. Not going to perform. This was very unprofessional.

Chris provided a quick detailed estimate, and immediately instilled confidence in us that he was the right guy for the job. His crew completely gutted 2 upstairs cape bedrooms, put in new insulation, put up new drywall, and installed new laminate floors. In addition, 2 new Andersen windows, 3 room doors, and 2 custom closet doors were installed. He rewired the electrical and installed new led recessed lights in both rooms. Chris also removed all our upstairs bathroom fixtures, ripped up the old flooring, installed new floors and grout, and replaced all the fixtures. All work was done extremely well with attention to detail, and his crew was extremely clean, you would have never known they were even there the clean up was so good every day. Couldn’t have been happier with the results, and would hire again without hesitation. Highly recommend!

Chris came over multiple times to help us plan out the space we were planning to renovate. He was punctual and had a game plan every day. He kept us informed about each step along the way. We appreciated the fact that his team cleaned up the space they worked in every day. The finished project - our basement- came out gorgeous. We ultimately decided to divide our space between a TV/media area, playroom, and laundry room. We also gave our half bath in the basement a face life. The closets came out incredible with all the storage space we imagined. I have to say, Chris was one of the most all around knowledgeable contractors with whom we have worked with and we would be happy to hire him in the future for our bathroom and kitchen renovations.

We feel very lucky to have found and chosen Complete Carpentry. For a very reasonable price, our awkward second story bathroom with a sloped ceiling was transformed into a great space with a beautiful custom shower. Every interaction with Chris exceeded our expectations. We made arrangements to have him come look at our bathroom. He arrived on time, and provided us with useful and honest feedback. We received a detailed estimate within a few days, and decided to proceed with the work. Work started at the time we agreed and was finished in a bit more than a week. Every day, Chris and Mike arrived on time, worked hard for a full day, and thoroughly cleaned up before leaving. Chris is meticulous, a bit of a perfectionist; he will not be satisfied leaving anything looking half done. He brings creativity to the job and was able to provide us with several custom solutions. In the end, what was once an eyesore is now a beautiful bathroom. We have already signed Complete Carpentry up to do some additional work in our home, and are looking forward to it. In short, great contractor who provided us with a great service. I would highly recommend.

We have an amazing new kitchen at a reasonable price and a contractor we will use for many other projects to come.
Description of Work: Chris was hired to do a complete renovation of our kitchen. We picked out the cabinets and flooring ourselves and Chris installed. He also installed new lighting in kitchen. Not only did he do so quickly and professionally. kept offering extra-contractual services and no additional charge (hanging ceiling fans, installing cabinet knobs and reinstalling baseboard heating next to cabinet, to name a few. He treated my house like it was his home, being sure to carefully cover all furniture to protect it from dust.
