    minor bathroom upgrade
    $82,500

    My friend was spot on when she suggested I contact Mike at Preferred Remodeling for a minor bathroom update. The customer service received during the process was far beyond what one expects in this day and age, which is rare! Mike provided me with various options while designing my new bathroom, making it easy to select precisely what suited me best.

    Home Renovation
    $375,000

    We were initially hesitant to undertake a home renovation project due to concerns about costs and the risk of being upsold on unnecessary items. However, our experience with this contractor was completely different. The team was transparent and honest about the cost of materials and labor, and they never tried to pressure us into purchasing items we didn't need. They were also patient and understanding as we worked through the design process, helping us to make informed decisions that were within our budget. In the end, we were able to achieve the look we wanted without breaking the bank.

    Kitchen Renovation
    $200,000

    Preferred Remodeling has earned my highest recommendation for their exemplary service in renovating our kitchen. They were professional and knowledgeable throughout the entire project--from consulting with us about our vision for the space to helping us select materials that fit our budget. The end result is stunning--the transformation of our kitchen was worth every penny!

    Kitchen Remodel
    $875,000

    A leaking kitchen sink was a huge problem that had been plaguing our home for weeks. We called Preferred Remodeling and they responded promptly. Mike and his team worked quickly to diagnose the issue, assess the damage, and replace it as quickly as possible. They even took extra measures to make sure similar problems wouldn't occur in the future. The small project led us to hire them for our full kitchen remodel. We are so glad we chose them, and we would never have other companies work on our home.

    living room renovation

    We did a lot of research before hiring this company to handle our living room renovations. Our family loves spending time in the room, so we wanted to make sure it was done with attention to detail. We are looking to achieve a certain look and feel and Preferred Remodeling helped us create it. The industrial and cozy feel of the room is exactly what we wanted and they delivered! We are absolutely blown away by their work - the result speaks for itself. Preferred Remodeling provided us with exceptional service. Mike’s expertise made the entire process go smoothly. His team worked efficiently and managed to get everything done perfectly according to our specifications - which included some intricate details that took a lot of time and care to complete. We would highly recommend Preferred Remodeling for any home remodeling project - they are truly experts in the field!

    We spent months looking for the best company to plan and execute our remodeling project. In the end, we chose Preferred Remodeling, which was one of the best decisions we have ever made. Mike and his team provided us with impeccable service - they were knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and always available for any questions or concerns. We read about companies hanging up on customers or refusing to answer questions, but we never experienced that with Preferred Remodeling. They ensured we were 100% satisfied with their job, which is something we truly appreciate.

    Bathroom remodel
    $100,000

    We recently worked with Preferred Remodeling on a complete bathroom remodel, and we couldn't be happier with the aesthetics and quality of the material they chose. We appreciate their attention to detail and the effort taken to minimize disruptions to our daily routine. All the improvements were completed within the estimated timeline and budget. The end result was truly breathtaking - a modern, timeless bathroom with quality fixtures and materials that will last a lifetime. Thank you again, Preferred Remodeling!

    Kitchen Renovation
    $163,000

    One of the things we appreciated most about Preferred Remodeling was their fair and reasonable pricing. They offered us a competitive rate for the work needed, which was a pleasant surprise given the scope of the project. They were also able to work within our budget and were transparent about any changes or updates to the cost of the project. The entire process took about four months to complete, but it was worth the wait. The beautiful marble countertop is the highlight of our kitchen renovation. They also added extra lighting to make the space brighter and more inviting.

    Kitchen Remodeling
    $100,000

    Our kitchen was transformed from an outdated space into a modern and functional space. The new cabinets helped us organize our kitchenware much more efficiently. The marble countertop also gave the space an elegant look, and the new island added plenty of extra workspace for cooking and entertaining. We are so pleased with how it all turned out! Mike was professional and responsive throughout the entire process, making sure that we were happy with every aspect of his work.
