ALEX FREDDI CONSTRUCTION LLC

The job was completed with great professionalism. Communication was excellent; someone was on site daily. The project manager and team demonstrated pride in workmanship. They were courteous and sensitive to our concerns during this time of COVID. I highly recommend them.

Alex Freddi was prompt, courteous, helpful and informative. He asked great questions about the proposed project, his bid was thorough, and included helpful resources, enabling us to be more educated consumers. Although we did not ultimately hire Freddi Construction for our project, we admire their professionalism. I hope to hire them in the future!

Reasonably well. The job was somewhat chaotic but subcontractors were on time and job was completed on time. Project manager very congenial and did care about having the job done well. Tiler was particularly good and personable.

We are very pleased with our new Master Bathroom. We removed a large tub which we never used, replacing it with a custom shower and linen cabinet. In addition, we replaced the vanity, light fixtures, countertop, plumbing fixtures, flooring, etc. Alex was very responsive to our initial inquiry and subsequent questions. It was an expensive project, but the bid was fair and we were given more affordable options when possible, while keeping the quality outstanding. Our Project Manager Gary was easy to work with, kept us informed and kept to the schedule. He was onsite for most of the work and we had no issues with any of the subcontractors. Our bathroom is beautiful, and we would not hesitate to work with them on our next project.

They were all around great! There were a few snafus, as there always are with projects this size, but they were handled with professionalism and care. Our project manager was our sanity saver!

This was a big job for us. We had our 70's kitchen completely gutted and replaced. We have used Alex Freddi for two other jobs and though we got other bids we were pretty sure we would use Alex again. We are very happy with the outcome and highly recommend Alex Freddi Construction. Alex and his team are easy to work with on design, demolition, reconstruction and details. I liked that we could be as hands on as we wanted to be and do some of it ourselves or step back completely. We went into this having an idea of what we wanted but flexibility if it wasn't realistic or within our budget. The designer worked with us to create a unique design that works for us. This included humoring my pinterest ideas that we love in the finished kitchen. Our Project Manager was organized and kept everything flowing well. I loved having a shared calendar so we knew what and when everything was going on. All of the subcontractors were very knowledgeable and able to do everything needed correctly.

Alex is absolutely the greatest to work with. He is such a great support with continually checking up on the work being done to make sure it was up to my standards and that I was happy. He was very flexible with the time line as I was also doing some of the work myself. All of the subs he sent were top notch, even the inspectors were impressed. This was the second time I had work with Alex and will not hesitate to contact him again if I have further project.

We made the choice to go with Alex Freddi on our basement bathroom remodel for two reasons: Alex was super quick to answer all my questions (this was our first major remodel in our home/first time working with a contractor, so we had lots of questions) and the quote was straight forward — it didn’t combine a bunch of costs in one line item that we’d have to pick apart to understand what things actually cost what. We got to work with Gary as our project manager and he was great! He checked in often, was available for calls, and answered all my questions. The thing I appreciated most was that he always asked me my thoughts on all the details that needed to be decided upon. I felt like I knew what to expect and that if something came up that I would never have been able to anticipate, he would let me know or ask my opinion. I never felt talked down to or that my choices were inferior. It’s been over 6 months since we completed our remodel and we are very happy with how our bathroom turned out and felt like it was a great experience for our first time around, hopefully not our last!

Great, we were very happy with the results

Alex and his Team were a pleasant surprise in numerous contractor experiences. He provided clear guidance of the project, a clear and item delineated quote and a very reasonable timeline, even accelerating the timeline at my request to facilitate selling the home. The quality of the work, project management, including continuous communication during the effort, timeliness of the completed project, were all excellent. I would highly recommend Alex and will most definitely leverage his Team for any future work.

No construction project ever goes perfectly, but the awesome communication from our project manager, Gary, was proactive, consistent, and constant. We had some minor miscommunications on the design of the kitchen and Gary worked very closely with Catherine (the designer) to find workable solutions that stayed within our budget and timeline. The project came in on budget and mostly on time (time delays were because of changes I requested) My kitchen and bathrooms are gorgeous! I would use Alex Freddi again without hesitation (and are already planning another project with them). Just remember, your communication to them is just as important as theirs to you!

Alex Freddi and his team did a fantastic job on my bathroom remodel! They were courteous, professional, punctual and friendly. They started the job right away and worked until it was finished. They offered design opinions and the job turned out fantastic! Thumbs up! I would rehire them and definitely recommend them, for any type of home remodel/work. Thx Alex. Erik

We hired Alex and his team to make our bathroom accessible to allow us to age in place. Norm and Ryan did an amazing job!! They worked hard, cleaned up at the end of each day and answered our many questions. They made helpful suggestions that improved the plan. The tile work looks great and the bathroom is totally accessible with a barrier free shower, a built in shower seat and grab bars that are classy looking but provide needed safety. Alex also remodeled our kitchen 6 years ago and we continue to love the way it turned out. We would recommend, and have recommended, Alex Freddi Constuction to anyone looking for a contractor who is dependable, honest, and concerned about providing the customer the best product for a fair price.

Alex Freddi was very professional, so is his project manager and sub-contractors. They were great to work with, friendly, clean and prompt on their schedule. His designer was able to put our idea of a dream kitchen to reality. She is thorough, helpful and very patient. While his quote is a little higher than the other contractors, we felt that for the price we paid, it was worth it. It's just like buying a car. You have to select your option of what goes into the project to really satisfy your needs. I will not hesitate to hire him again if I have another project. Great to work with.

Initial consultation and response was quick, estimate was delivered back to us very quickly. They were even able to start the project earlier than initially estimated! They provided good information through the design and permitting process and were promptly available when we needed guidance. Project schedule was communicated through Google calendar and was accurate and updated throughout the project. Our assigned project manager Gary coordinated subcontractors seamlessly, even when it was necessary to shift the calendar due to unforeseen circumstances. It's been 2 months and we're extremely happy with our new kitchen -- it exceeded all expectations! We'd certainly trust and hire Alex Freddi again for any other project needs.

We had a wonderful experience with Alex Freddi, from the imagining and design process, to Alex working with IKEA to get our kitchen design down, to working with Gary, our project manager. Both Gary and Alex were kind, prompt and quick to answer our instructions, and though I partly work from home, Gary's presence was a comfortable and light experience (we sort of miss having Gary around all the time!). One thing I didn't love was the quality of the paint job and some of the mess Gary left behind while he was working. Our basement was covered in sawdust after the electrical work was done (we waited a couple weeks for something to happen and eventually my husband cleaned it himself), and on the last day there was still drywall and sawdust in spots throughout the bathroom and kitchen. Additionally, we asked Gary to come back and clean up his paint job and add another layer of paint to the baseboard moulding because it was obvious it wasn't going to hold up to scuffing or dirt. While those two things were a little trying, it just took some honest communication on our parts (and we probably should have brought these things up sooner, but we're new to this) and Gary took care of the problem efficiently and kindly. The kitchen especially is a dramatic transformation from what it was before, and we are absolutely loving it and so relieved things are done up to code now. While we didn't do a ton of work in the bathroom, what Gary did do has made such a huge difference it doesn't at all feel like the same room. We are so grateful and will 100% call Alex Freddi again for any other remodeling.

I don't think my project would have come out as well as is did if I had not had Alex in my corner. He was more of a subcontractor since I was doing quite a bit of the work my self, but was so helpful in letting me know the how and where for's of running a project. He went far beyond what he was obligated to do for me, making sure I knew all of the ins and outs of permits, inspections and just generally there when ever I had a question. It was so nice to have someone respond timely to my e-mails and kept informed on my progress so he could have his people in to keep things running smoothly. Without a doubt I will work with Alex again on any construction projects I my have in the future.

We were very pleased with the work done by Alex and his crew. The work was started and ended very close to the timeframe we initially discussed. The people we interacted with were very professional. They were always nice, respectful, and we felt confident to leave them alone in the house. The work was done very quickly and the quality was great. While doing the work, the area was kept safely enclosed and pretty clean. At the end of the work, they reasonably fixed in time and without additional cost the items we didn't think met our expectations - and we are very picky. Overall, i feel i could have gotten the work cheaper with another contractor, but I am glad i didn't. Glad i didn't have to chase people to get things done, things were done the way we wanted and we got great advice from them which a the end saved us money. I would hire them again! Thanks Alex, Norm and Kathryn!

My experience with the team at Alex Freddi Construction was outstanding. From the start they were professional and transparent, highly organized and helpful. I had plenty of time to make choices for materials and spent a good deal of time talking through the projects so that we were on the same page. Gary, the project manager and Sergio, the tilesetter were great to work with - very knowledgeable, respected my space throughout the project and offered good input and advice when I asked for it. Their initial bid was pretty close to the final cost and we worked through a few changes and issues along the way. Remodeling can be stressful and challenging so it's important to have a good working relationship and establish trust. I highly recommend this company and would work with them again.

This is the third home we have remodeled and I can happily tell you it was the best! Alex was professional and flexible in helping us make choices within our budget. Norm, our project manager, was meticulous with his work. He showed a passion for making his customer happy and his experience enabled him to be proactive in coaching us and also in problem solving. This was a big job and I’d eagerly hire Alex Freddi again.

Alex is a true professional. He was fast to respond to inquiries and was very thorough with his explanations.

Alex and his team (we worked with Gary and Kathryn) did a phenomenal job on our kitchen remodel. They gutted our old kitchen to the studs and built it back again in six weeks. They were punctual, responsive, and incredibly flexible and attentive. They let us control as much or as little of each process as we wanted and were always available to talk and discuss options. They finished on time and on budget (something people in Portland can't believe given the current demand for construction) and the final product is amazing. Many people have commented just how clean and crisp and well-designed it all is. I highly recommend Alex and his team and hope to use them again in the future.

I am so pleased with my beautiful new master bedroom/bathroom suite. Alex was great from the first consultation through the final inspection. Per the way Alex works, the cost is for labor only (and general supplies, nails, lumber etc.) and I purchased majority of materials (tub, sink, tile, doors etc.). Alex was very helpful with any questions I had regarding the materials I needed to purchase. If I ever had an issue with any work or questions, Alex always responded promptly. Brensen was my foreman and he is fabulous: great attention to detail, good communicator, calm and kind. Brensen went out of his way to make sure everything was top notch and the way I wanted it to be. He even took my barn door floor guides to be polished as he wanted them to look better. Nice! I needed to upgrade my electrical service which was a surprise. I ended up finding my own contractor for that work as Alex’s price for his contractor was too high. The entire remodel took 2.5 months and I am really pleased with how all work was coordinated and completed in a timely manner. Kathryn Renz who works with Alex was my designer. She is amazing. She came up with the layout for my space and was indispensable in helping choose materials and the overall look. Kathryn was always quick to respond to questions and came over during critical times when I needed her input. She is talented, kind and so easy to work with. If you can get on Alex’s schedule, do it. You’ll be happy. I am beyond ecstatic with my new space!

Gary did a great job. He and his sub-contractors were professional and courteous. More importantly, they were responsive to my requests and detail-oriented when I needed them to be. Both floors required a complicated tile pattern installation and both came out flawless.

We had quite a few contractors come in but decided on Alex Freddi based on work they had done for several of our neighbors. They were not the cheapest but emphasized that one of their strengths was completing the work efficiently. While this led to a several month hold until they could start, it did pay off in the entire job being completed in less then a month. Gary manages the work well and their sub-contractors are excellent. They were also able to accommodate late in the game changes that one should always plan on occurring. Asked Gary to come by after the job was completed for some tweaking and he promptly did so. So in summary, while their may have been cheaper options, we feel the quality and efficiency of the work justified the price. As a general comment, while getting contractor estimates is fairly easy, figuring out the total cost of the project is a little more difficult. In our case, our total cost was an additional 65% over the contractor cost and we stayed fairly basic in our desires. We would suggest that when getting the contractor bid, you sit with them to get a list of and a range of the cost you will need to cover outside of those included in the contractor bid. As a general
