"We hired them to tear down the tiny existing bathroom to the studs and expanded it into some bedroom closet space in our 1924 home. Rick clearly explained the entire process, timeline and costs. They brought samples to our home during a very professional bid presentation that blew away the other companies we met with. Every subcontractor was professional there was little to no mess or inconvenience to us. Project manager Zach was great at communication via text. All workers tolerated our dog being home so we were grateful not to have to relocate her during work days. Final results looked great and high end -despite our budget choice to use man-made materials for flooring and backsplash. I Loved that they spoke to both our neighbors to let them know to contact them if any issues with construction traffic. Project ended ahead of schedule and exactly on the budget they promised - except we did have to pay a one-time additional cost due to unexpected plumbing issue - but it is a very old house and if we d hired a plumber ourselves I m sure that hiccup would have cost a lot more/ you never know what to expect before the walls come down. If you have an old house and have been dreaming of knocking out a wall to expand and update your kitchen or bath I highly recommend them."

"Luis and Raul are great to work with. IĆ¢ ve hired them for multiple large projects. They are talented and provide quality work at a fair price. I will continue to use their services. In the construction business it can be difficult to find contractors you can trust. They are men of their word and want to make sure their clients are happy and satisfied with their work."

"Colton from Smith Remodel and Construction was amazing! Leading out to our sun room, we had an old slider door that we wanted to replace with new glass french doors and Colton did an outstanding job! Our older home created some challenges due to the custom sized door opening, but Colton went above and beyond to make it look great! He even took the time to create a custom threshold that transitioned the floor from tile to carpet! They cleaned up the site very well once the job was done and even vacuumed out our garage which he used as a work area. I would HIGHLY recommend Smith Remodel and Construction! We could not be happier with how it turned out! Thank y ou!"

HomeAdvisor makes it easy to connect with pros near you. You can read reviews, get quotes and book appointments all in one place.
Depending on the type of project, you may find subtle differences in the hiring process. Hereās a look at task-specific advice.
You can use HomeAdvisor to help evaluate a contractorās qualifications. We put pros through a screening process, and award badges to high-performing contractors. You can find these badges on a proās HomeAdvisor profile, and sometimes, his or her website.
Your research doesnāt stop here. Once youāve found a few prospective companies, make an call to ask a few questions about work history, licensure and more:
In most cases, the responses you get to these three questions will give you a very good idea of the right pro for your project. If you have more than one front-runner, these additional questions can help you narrow it down.
Any good contractor will answer these questions, and most will appreciate dealing with a client that takes such an active interest in finding good service. On the other hand, if a contractor gives you a hard time with these questions, you probably want to find someone else.
