Owner
We hired Bluestem for a full condo renovation (kitchen, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, flooring, electrical, painting) that kicked off August 28, 2025. At the initial meeting, three Bluestem representatives told us this would be a "perfect" project to fit in before two larger jobs, and estimated 6-8 weeks to completion.
We terminated the contract on February 26, 2026 — over 25 weeks later — with the project still incomplete.
Some specifics from our experience:
- The wrong tub was installed in the primary bathroom
- The kitchen island cabinet was measured incorrectly. Their onsite project lead used the word "scrap" to describe the plywood used to finish it.
- A towel holder was installed incorrectly and came loose from the wall; their fix was to caulk it in place rather than properly re-anchor it.
- A "definitive" punch list was in Bluestem's hands as of December 17, 2025; by mid-February we were still being told a meeting was needed for "clarity" on the same items.
- We experienced repeated stretches of no on-site progress and delayed responses to calls and emails.
- A plumbing subcontractor's installation error (a missing tub strainer, per the property management company's investigation) caused water damage to the unit below ours (we ended up paying for those repairs, not Bluestem).
We were left to coordinate with multiple subcontractors and property management directly on issues that should have been managed by our general contractor.
If you're considering Bluestem for a project, ask hard questions about their current workload and get a realistic timeline in writing. Our experience was six months of delays, miscommunication, and rework we didn't budget for. If we could give Bluestem 0 stars, we would.
