“I am writing this unqualified recommendation on behalf of Mont Hartman, with whom my wife and I have worked closely over the past year on what became a major residential renovation project in Sarasota, FL. Mont Hartman assumed the role of Project Manager soon after we designed and contracted for what was then planned to be a limited condominium remodel. Mont brought himself “up to speed” quickly and then reached out to us to meet and refine our goals and the scope of our project. Throughout our renovation Mont was responsive, respectful and creative. His vision, team leadership, broad range of knowledge in all areas of our project (design, permitting, electrical, plumbing, cabinetry, counters, tile, flooring, painting, electronics, etc.) and problem-solving skills were the critical factors that have led to a wonderful outcome with which we are very pleased. As is often the case, our project changed and expanded as we proceeded. Mont handled these modifications smoothly and efficiently and with good humor. Mont also needed to deal with some unusual additional challenges. The project was undertaken in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic with resultant difficulties in coordination and supervision of subcontractors, supply chain disruptions and safety concerns. In addition, the bulk of this renovation was undertaken remotely, since our primary residence during this project was in NYC. Nevertheless, Mont was able to keep us well-informed and involved on all aspects of the project with his regular texts, detailed emails, pictures and FaceTime calls. We feel fortunate to have worked with Mont and his team. Their work ethic, experience, integrity, skills, maturity and advocacy are exceptional. We are pleased to recommend Mont Hartman and his team enthusiastically and without reservation.”

“We highly recommend Don Peterson as a home remodeling professional. Don reviewed the specifications with us and was on site for each phase of the construction. We were extremely impressed with the quality of work. He was able to far exceed our expectations from start to finish as our lanai is now the favorite part of our home.”

“Nick and his crews have unmatched attention to detail. I refer Nick to many of my customers and the final results of those partnerships are always fantastic.”

“It's been my pleasure to work with Ocean Builders on a couple of large, high-end remodeling projects. Andy, Peter, Craig, everyone on the job proved themselves not only skilled and knowledgeable but accommodating, responsive and timely- professional in every way. Good people doing great work!”

“Turner Contracting did an absolutely stellar job remodeling our first floor powder room. We could not be happier! The company's owner, TJ Horne, is not only meticulous with his work, but his knowledgebase is second-to-none. Because of his exemplary work ethic, customer service and quality of work, we are having his company back to lead the effort on our upcoming kitchen and mudroom renovations. Check out our "Boring Beige" BEFORE photo below, then the "Beautiful Blue" AFTER photo! Now our powder room is an "Exotic Escape!"”

“When my husband and I bought a very small apartment size condo in Bradenton, Florida, we knew we would have a daunting task of renovating the 40 year old kitchen and 2 baths. The kitchen actually had wooden counters! Rather then spreading the work out over several months, we decided to have all the work done at one time. This meant we were faced with half of the condo being being under construction at the same time, and wouldn't be able to live there during this process. so we needed a contractor that we were sure was trustworthy and would do an excellent job. After interviewing about five contractors and searching on-line we met and hired Rick Parcels owner of RJM Contractors. He worked with us to come up with a plan that we could afford and that met all our needs as far as storage and design. His work was done on time and he e-mailed us with his progress and took pictures as he went along. As problems arouse with granite suppliers and the structure of a 40 year old building, he was on top of it. When inspecting the finished project I was pleased to see every corner mitered perfectly and my counters were level. Rick was easy to work with and definitely knows his job well. He anticipated problems we hadn't even thought of. My husband and I would definitely hire him again and would gladly refer him to family and friends.”

“James Cawley Construction totally renovated a 3300 square foot contemporary home for us and added a large garage that worked beautifully with the design. We constantly get compliments on this house! James is brilliant, hard-working, and has good communication skills. He always answers phone calls and texts. James Cawley and his project manager are on good terms with Sarasota’s permitting office so that process goes smoothly. They also know everyone in town, getting us a fabulous designer, Rick Arieno. We can highly recommend this company.”

“Team Torres did a great job! They were professional, efficient and showed great craftsmanship. We love their entire team!”

“I have worked with J M Meyer Construction on numerous projects. I find their work and the subs that they employ to be of the highest calibur. They pay attention to details and have wonderful client service. They stand behind their work fully and consistently exceed expectations for the level of quality. I would recommend them highly as a general contractor.”

“This was our first remodeling experience and we were very fortunate to pick the right contractor. Tim Ziegler from Coastal Living Remodelers listened to our concerns and goals and helped us create the home of our dreams. As the project progressed, we made several changes in the Scope of Work, and Tim never complained. As he often said, he just wanted us to love our home. If something was not done up to par, it was Tim who pointed it out, and made sure it was redone properly. He was very honest and took great pride in the work he oversaw.”
