I used Northwood Construction to do several simultaneous remodeling jobs in my house. They did my kitchen, guest bathroom, powder room, and fireplace. I could not be happier with the work they performed. On a scale of 1-10, this company is a 20! From the very beginning of the process, Bob the owner takes the time to listen to what you want. The sketches of the work to be provided were easily revised with changes I wanted to make. Then Bob went with me to pick out the granite, appliances, tiles, plumbing fixtures … you name it! He gave his expertise on my selections which helped me make more informed choices. When the work began, my project manager Morgan really brought my vision to life. His work was impeccable! As a perfectionist, even I couldn’t find flaws. He was friendly, professional, punctual, and always just a text away. He even sent me photos of my project while I was out of town so I could see the progress! Any time I had a question, all I had to do was text or leave a note and it was instantly addressed. My project finished on time and on budget. I feel like I’m now living in a model home! If you are looking for a highly-responsive and impeccably skilled company, look no further. Northwood Construction will be the best decision you make in your remodeling journey!

Don and Chris started and finished all work exactly as they said they would, cleaned up the work site better than it was when work began, and the final price was exactly the price quoted (which we already knew was a good, competitive price). We felt that everyone at Northwood put us first in designing, scheduling, and completing the work – and we could not be happier. We’re so impressed with Northwood that we want them to convert our carport into a garage – a project we’ve put off for years. We look forward to working with Bob and the crew to finalize the garage design (I never thought I’d ever say that about a construction company)!
Description of Work: After about 15 years of weather, the four columns on the front of our house badly needed to be replaced. We absolutely hate the prospect of dealing with construction companies and procrastinated to the point that the columns were about ready to collapse. We spent months talking to (and rejecting) various highly-rated construction firms – and then we found Northwood Construction – and we are extremely pleased with both the work and the process. Bob Benedict patiently worked with us to get the exact look we wanted. We were impressed that Bob spent as much time as he did to get the exact look and “low-maintenance” results we wanted. He provided design recommendations and drawings that let us select exactly the style we wanted and he precisely matched the existing paint color of the porch.

Description of Work: We couldn't have gotten a better contractor to complete this work. Had a walkout basement with kitchen and two baths completely remodeled. Craftsmanship was excellent. Crew was efficient, neat and extremely trustworthy. Kudos to Bob Benedict and his crew, especially Chris and Mark.

Description of Work: I can't say enough good things about Northwood. We have used them for several projects, the biggest being enclosing our two story foyer to create a reading loft on our second floor. They also redid part of our master bath, replaced our sliding glass door that the builder incorrectly installed and advised us on some mold issues we had. Bob and all his crews are professional, pleasant and knowledgeable. They aren't the cheapest game in town, but their work is excellent and they stand behind it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

2013 - roof and gutters: Northwood Construction did an excellent job, giving us a fair price with contingencies spelled out and prices noted. Some of the plywood underlayment in the attic had to be replaced, but it was impossible to determine exactly how much until the workers removed the old roof. We knew what the basic cost was and what the upper cost might be, depending on how much plywood had to be replaced. We purchased deep gutters and screens, they are working very well. 1993-94: Northwood did a major renovation for us in 1993-94, and the quality of their work held up over the ensuing 20+ years that we owned the home (we just sold it in October 2014). Going through our files, I found the correspondence between us and Northwood's owner, Bob Benedict, as we planned the major renovation. He worked patiently with us, explaining various cost options and re-working their bid. We were thrilled with the result and lived happily in the house for many years. We wouldn't hesitate to work with Bob and his crew again. Many of the crew members who worked on our home decades ago are still with Northwood - that's a very good sign of a company that treats its people and its customers well.

Description of Work: The owner Mr Benedict arrived promptly and was extremely knowledgeable and very pleasant. I enjoyed his professionalism and family feel. We have not contracted with them yet as we are in a very exploratory period of estimation. His estimations for a kitchen Reno were more expensive than we may want to invest in at this time but I enjoyed talking to him and agree with his philosophy and business motto. We will consider his company in the future.

We were very pleased with them. They did a very good job with the drywall. We were very pleased with the drywall. They finished on time and did everything they said they were going to do. They were easy to work with. They had a project manager on site every day. The only downside was that it was pretty expensive. They did excellent work but they were a little pricey.

Northwood is just the best. They worked with us to refine the design of the remodeling and help shape the project so that we spent what we wanted to spend. We made some changes along the way, but all extra cost was our doing, our decision to make a change. Unexpected things -- always happens in large projects -- were handled and were never used as an excuse for extra cost. The work was done on schedule. One hears ridiculous stories about jobs that stretch for months past the estimate times. Small delays came from some equipment delivery delays and from subcontractor schedules, but these were very minor. Northwood's people are wonderful. They were very professional and enjoyable to work with. Their subcontractors were completely supervised by the lead on the job. All the details (permits, etc) were attended to and all questions answered in detail -- I learned lots working with them. The company culture is one that respects the client and emphasizes good quality work.
Description of Work: In addition to a wonderful deck, built in 2002, we used Northwood on a complete kitchen remodel in 2003 -- the date I used for this review. In 2006, we used them for a full remodeling of one full bath and a powder room, along with an entryway. In 2008, we re-did a master bath. All these jobs included complete demolition down to the studs and starting over with electrical, plumbing, tile work, floors. The kitchen project involved rearranging heating/cooling ducts and removal of walls as part of the remodel.

He is still doing things in our neighborhood. The house across the street has had a big project done, and they are happy with him. We still keep in contact with him. I still say that his work is the caliber that it was when he worked for us. I just recommended him to my daughter.

We didn't use them. The bid was between $20000.00 and $25000.00 and included a vanity, a toilet, and a shower. To me the bid was too high so we didn't go with them. The owner was very pleasant and polite. He even showed us a portfolio of their work. We were getting ready to put our house in the market. I felt it was too high just for an extra bathroom that we wouldn't have used. We were just finishing it for the purpose of trying to sell our house quicker. We probably would not use the company again in the future.
Description of Work: We got an estimate from Northwood Construction for finishing a lower level bathroom in our house.

It was a very good experience. Their prices were not low, but reasonable. They had someone conducting oversight and because it was a general contractor, they weren't always employees, so that was important.
Description of Work: We had a tree fall on the front of our house and they repaired the roof and porch. We also had them do some stone work on the walkway.

The contractors did a very good work. They were excellent with their work mainly carpentry, painting and evaluation of what needs to be done; how to go about it. We had them do the kitchens and bathrooms. I had some things that had to be done around the house and wanted them changed from the very beginning. They removed the asbestos ceiling through a known sub contractor as they didn't do it themselves. Their prices were a little high but they were competitive from other contractors. They are rated best in the market.
Description of Work: I used them for a variety of jobs like repairing stone damage, markings and fillings. I also had some new fillings put in for some upgrades on buildings between last fall and this spring.

Well, my neighbor recommended the company because he knew they were an excellent firm in their field. Primarily, I think, the go into renovations on the high end. I might be mistaken, so your milage may vary. I had the president of the company doing the estimating and planning from the beginning. While I did not ask for that, it was a plus. Sorry I could not proceed with the project. With this company or any other.
Description of Work: I asked for and received an estimate for a kitchen rennovation. Without any doubt this firm is highly qualified in their areas of expertise. I have been told and, from my contact with them, they are highly regarded and sought after for their work. The company provided the best estimate I received and I contacted many firms. The paperwork, with detailed plains and proposals was first rate. If I had the money, and if my house would have benefited, I would have hired the firm. Because my home is probably going to be sold in the near future, I felt it would be a poor investment on my part to do all of the work they were recommending. So that was it. Too expensive for me, but another person might decide that they are ready and willing to pay because they live in a neighborhood or house that has higher valued real estate.
